What are the odds if you invest it all imeddiately after 10 years of a bull market run?

This feels like the japanification of the whole western world plus China. I don't even follow the valuations of the stock markets, I've been told they are high, but for tech I'm sure they are nowhere near those of 1998, so I

"It is not yet known what caused the ship, which was bound for Saudi Arabia, to capsize" The romanian newspapers initially reported that the sheep were simply not loaded on both sides of the ship.

The author said on /r/space that was the case -- this was a binary system with the stars orbiting very close to eachother.

The author of the paper was active on reddit and he said the only way to explain this is that there were initially two stars orbiting in very close proximity and there could not have been any planets to begin with.

Amen to treating symptoms! I feel like I've wasted years and a lot of money with psychotherapists who insist on bullshit root causes. Treating symptoms allows you to break the problem into smaller issues, monitor progress, change cours

The template is in romanian so I'll try and describe it, the columns are days of week, the lines are: "Daily disposition" -5 Maximum Depression .. +5 full blown Mania Wakeup hour Breakfast hour Lunch hour Active hours per day

But the government spent the money over decades. Monetizing the debt overnight is like a dam braking.

Can I ask what anti-anxiety meds are you taking?

I'm supposed to use a document template my therapist emailed me, most likely I will search for an app that does the same (too paranoid about printing and filling a document about my mood) -- so I don't track it yet. I was diagnos

It doesn't, that's why not everybody has that gene; if Alzheimers was something you developed as a teen, I'm sure that mutation would spread and soon everybody would have it. Maybe we could use that gene in the future on pati

Could someone use CRISPR to inject two copies of APOE3ch in regular Akzheimer's patiens? Sorry if this sounds silly, I have just a very rough understanding of genetics.

If by cash you mean Tether tokens, maybe. A bit strange how tether tokens are printed into existence to save the day for the other cryptos.

Maybe I was just regurgitating what the youtube channel Caspian Report was saying, but I think he suggested that Russia could just do agriculture up north and it would have the northern ocean open for sailing all year long and acces to hidr

Yeah, I guess with very thin shades reflection is the only way, maybe if those were thicker and good heat conductors, you could shape them like very wide triangles and radiate the heat just a couple of degrees to the side, still protecting

Is the gas demand that elastic though? On the other hand a fractured/weak Europe means higher gas prices, no medling in russian affairs, less pressure by russian citizens drooling over the fence with their eyes fixed on european stabil

Actually, you are right, I was talking as if the shades are just orbiting the Sun. L1 orbits do require station keeping. Perhaps you could cheat a bit by making the shades black or oscilating/slanting them a bit forward/rearwards

Russia will benefit greatly by global warming, it also relies on oil exports, also benefit vy weakening Europe with an inflow of climatic reffugees, has incredible incentives to actively make it happen.

Is there a reason why you couldn't close some shades and open others to roughly guide the shade on a specific area on Earth? ( besides the fact that you need to have much higher shading capacity if you want to be able to significantly

A thing which costs trillions of dollars will probably not be overpowered -- so I presume at no point will it be able to dim the light by 10%, wouldn't that be overkill? Probably this will be governed by the UN. There could be some int

There would be a "unnatural" orbit where solar radiation pressure would cancel the mismatched orbit, I think. So the shades would stay in equilibrium in a bit higher solar orbit than their velocity would permit without the light p

But I think our energy consumption is miniscule on the scale of energy received from the Sun. I did the math once, and a square of 300x300km of solar panels in the Sahara would cover all the world electricity demands. The issue is with gree

That would be true for the wrong type of knowledge also -- politics, manipulation, power accumulation and so on. If you think the 0.5% are bad enough now, wait until they can live to 500.

Which would be even worse for unlearning things/talk therapy. "I have this daddy issue, probably, but I don't really remember my dad..."

Maybe the costs are not fixed at 25, but 1/3 or 1/4 of life. If you could live to 300, competition would eventually make it that you have to spend 150 years "building a life" (but hey, you still get 150 years of a good l

The anthropic principle goes both ways. I've read this thought experiment somewhere -- imagine, you're locked in a cell and are given a set of lockpics, and you are told you have to pick the lock of the door and get out, or in 1 m
