100k is pretty normal for Teamster drivers, with a company vehicle, benefits etc. Of course, those positions are extremely easy to fill. There's not even close to a labor shortage there. Downside is 60 hour weeks for 30 years.

Here's the original FT article: https://www.ft.com/content/ba0a3cde-719b-4040-93cb-a486e1f84... The surprise isn't the development of hypersonic tech, it's how this was done and the capabilities. The DF-

It's absurd how much people deny PED [1] use. It's pervasive and an open secret in basically any context where men are shirtless: actors, models, MMA fighters, bodybuilders, etc. Even law enforcement and firefighters. The closest

Definitely true, retail trading of all sorts is basically gambling, and crypto has a lot of gamblers. I think this is a really bad thing. However, even the typical lambo-dreamer sustains the effect: it would be rare for them to cash out com

Bitcoin is a store of value. Why is it a store of value? Because people believe it is, much like gold. You can gesture vaguely at the minor utility that gold has, the ability to be made into things of commercial value, but that's a fig

"Potential for creating a civil war" isn't a hypothetical at all. It's already happened, social media was complicit in the violent overthrow of multiple governments, ending with 60,000 people dead. It's called the A

Interesting company. It was created in 2018 [1], and the CEO is Michael Heyward, who was a co-founder of Whisper. Some interesting shuffling happened with Whisper [2] and it's now owned by MediaLab. Since then they have acquired a numb

You've made about 20 comments in this thread, mostly demanding sources and then dismissing those sources with vague ad-hominem and making zero attempt to engage with the substance of any claims. Since you seem to be very well educated
