Some year it likely will happen. Followed by a year where it touches 28K again. But you bring up a very good and often missed point. Highly speculative wagers are, if maybe not rational, understandable when 100X+ or 1000X+ potential gains e

It takes time to learn your way and navigate through the maze that is AWS or GCP cloud as well though. And you never get rid of sys admins, they just get renamed AWS specialists.

Please no. Back in the 90's I worked on a concrete crew for a summer. Building big box store type buildings. They pour the floor, then pour the walls on top of the floor, then tip the walls up and weld them together with metal flanges

You need a reason beyond money to do what you are doing. Without that you burn out quick and it takes a long time to recover. Find the reason and if there isn't one do something else.

They have casinos now though. Also food (in my view) is shared heritage of humanity. It's never been static, diets change and we eat the best thing we have at the time. Including native peoples. I'm not sure food is a sacred tradi

I took a class freshman year on ethnology of native American tribes. At one point the professor was talking about Athabaskan tribes and what they ate. Pretty much all animal, especially during winter. So I asked him how that worked, because

I think how it worked in pre contact times was you ate whatever you could get. Deer, squirrels, nuts, seeds from wild grasses, berries, tender hearts of succulents like agave, and if there was nothing else, the inner bark of pine trees. The

While not seriously overweight I had maybe an extra 10-15 pounds last year. Started just eating breakfast, a really fatty breakfast with bacon, ham, eggs, lard tortillas (they are the best) and salsa. Maybe 1500+ calories, I don't know

Wow! Someone else already mentioned it, but this so "interestingly unusual" to "apocalyptic" in twenty minutes it's hard to fathom. Thanks for sharing the link I personally had no idea!

There's also a theoretical difference between trading stocks and trading cryptocurrencies. Speculation, or the assumption of existing risk, or investing in creation with an expected return is not the same as gambling (which is 0 sum ga

We do have to credit Nancy for bringing so much attention to this issue through her flagrant actions. Probably not intentional, but credit where credit is due. I'd guess there are other members of congress who did/do exactly the s

How public forums work is each person can chose to participate or not. What that means is you can determine when you are "done here". You don't determine when "I am done here" (unless you somehow control access). It

Near as I can tell from VAERS (in the US) around 20,000 deaths have occurred following vaccination. Over-reported? Under-reported? I don't know. But deaths have occurred, so have serious heart problems (again, very rare with millions o

You seem to be missing the part where my taking the vaccine helps others. Has this been quantified or is it just hand-waving? Because it's very obvious transmission is widely occurring regardless. I've already explained how the va

If you had a flock of a million birds and sixty of them died and you wrote a thesis with the term "mass die off" you would be laughed out of the room. According to NatGeo "mass die off" is 90% of the population. I'd
