I've spend a total of about 2 months in the Carribean. One of those being an entire month straight. It's the convenience really, and the fact that nobody is in a hurry. Island time is real. You cannot be demanding. You can&#x2

Patrick is my youtube finance news GOAT. Hilarious and deeply detailed videos on some of the craziest shit going on in finance. If you're interested in the nitty gritty details of portfolio management, he also has a bunch of lectures

>It's funny how we forget about meritocracy as soon as the median American is threatened. What meritocracy? This is a myth pushed to justify a kind of "just world" interpretation of our social ills. Nepotism is increasin

I have a friend that is a junior in a security-oriented sys-admin/network engineer type role. They have been doing the job for only a bit over a year. No background in programming. Their entire organization has been handed Codex&#x2F

And then those companies can give them their due ~~bribes~~ totally free and unrelated gifts out of the goodness of their hearts to such illustrious paragons of American governance, as legalized by the supreme court recently.
