Short-term I agree, but long-term things can happen. The internet used to be cool for people like you and me, nerds who know how this stuff works.

I turned two hobbies into main hustles (poker and programming). It went well in both cases. I enjoy them both as hobbies again now.

I think most of the advice here is great, but it's not the advice I needed at 21. Here's what worked in my life: - Think about liabilities vs investments. Early on, I would invest in yourself. Gain new skills, education. Keep your

I often learn how to use something well that I've been using my whole life. A ratchet strap was a good example--you can use it without understanding how to use it well. One video (essential craftsman) fixed that for me. I think the mos

I don't think it sounds bold or empowering. I think it describes reality accurately, without bullshit. I wish someone had explained it to me as a young man. In my father's home, any rule was absolute law, and the consequence was a

Nice. Could a baseball pitched at 90% the speed of light from [anywhere that could produce such a speed] make it to Earth and impact? What can cause chunks of matter to travel this fast?

That's only 20 cut and paste operations? I would certainly do that manually before trying to code it. And I'm a proficient coder, and not a proficient Excel user. If it had 100k rows, I'd be out of my depth, so I'd hit g

In fact it seems really bad logic to assume that they would all arrive on the same price, had they actually done any real study. There would be some outliers or weird niche customer populations.
