The Monitoring the Future graph shows a pretty good uptick in youth happiness up until 2009/2010 and then we basically see a precipitous drop ever since. I would say the initial introduction of social media was pretty awesome(as a 90s)

Not ever being married myself, I would think that marriage should be an incredible experience to learn about yourself and your partner. A failed result can always have a positive return if you can find something to learn out of it. To foreg

The more likely speed bump you might face is if you post something and it rubs your co-workers the wrong way or in some way makes your employer think there is a conflict of interest. It really depends on what the content of the blog is.

1976 for Michigan(and 10c at that). My mom and I used to save every can when we lived in MI, I remember doing the deposits, and thought it was crazy that we were getting money for that.

Just wondering, any sources for anything you’ve said here? Last time I checked, not every rich person has a private jet or 20,000 sq foot home, but I’ve been wrong before.

I think you opportunistically left out the "stereotypically" in your quote. OP is not saying they are eating less rewarding foods for them but less foods that others might find rewarding.

It depends, I have a really big sweet tooth, but it is a self-reinforcing craving. There are people that really do not enjoy sweet things, and a lot of that has to do with those people not consuming sweets as a part of a regular diet, so th

I think the widespread option of remote work is a good step forward. The fact that it came about in such a quick fashion was not ideal for the re-shuffling of the real estate market, but hopefully it will even out in the coming years!

Remote work is essentially what created a large housing cost increase in other cities. Also for cities like NYC, reducing demand will be difficult. NYC has always been a city where lots of people want to live(maybe not you or me, but it doe

Haha "extractive relationship" come on man. Poor people aren't vampires, they need to be resourceful in their environment to survive.

Having higher local taxes in major cities would just expand the problem. The poor and middle class will get further pushed out, and the rich who can afford the tax and prefer living in the city will stay, in which case you just get SF all o

No sure why you’re getting downvoted, this makes sense. Humans are incredibly good at adapting to environments. From your perspective, it sounds like a change of pace kept things interesting.

Not overly optimistic on a soft landing either, but I also don't want to become a doomsdayer. My real concern is that this economic unrest is happening in parallel with political unrest, and that just means the fan that the shit will e

While oil might have hit 100/bbl, gas price still only hit 4$ very briefly and the impact of higher prices was generally limited to that sector. Today we are seeing higher prices across the board. Depending on what stat you look at, th

One of the most amazing things about aimlessly walking is the opportunity to let your mind wander freely! Not to say that you can't multitask while walking, just a thought :)

I think(at least in America, or less walkable cities) this is becoming a lost art. So many of my friends simply can't imagine what an hour or two might look like without being preoccupied by something. Walking to them is a boring activ

Not sure who 'we' in this situation is, but there are certainly a good portion of lower and middle class people feeling the economic pain through rising cost of every day items. My outlook is that we will eventually see this resul

In a nutshell, my internet routine has become: Check email > check ESPN > check HN > check WSJ. Every blog site I visit nowadays is literally full of ads, popups, etc...the content to ad ratio seems to be about 50/50, which is

As someone working in consulting, I can attest to the fact that most of the phrases you just ran off are buzz phrases that are the verbal representation for "kool aid". Leadership has to basically put out reports or justification

You're missing the whole picture. They banded together to elect the best representative in their eyes, not yours.

Referenced in Silicon Valley(the show), a blood boy would be someone that was young, whose blood would be transfused to one of these older tech billionaires in an effort to help them stay younger.

I generally don't think he is playing the same game as someone looking to invest some money for retirement. He is clearly going for strategic moonshots and probably isn't checking his bank account daily to see if its all gone.

But if we really take the analogy to heart, not much has changed fundamentally with finance since 2008. There are now more regulations, which is the exact same thing that will happen to crypto after all of this has settled. Maybe it zooms p

Of course it is easy now that they have been around for over a decade, the problem with the whole space is not technology, but economics. Once you have competitors in the space, it becomes a race to the bottom in regards to cost. Eventually

Execs don't interface with employees on a level where there is much emotion going on, and they probably see this as a benefit. This is par for the course. Athletes won't ever say 'I am moving to a new team' a month befor
