Interesting Video. The end state is a bit of a stretch, but there are some interesting observations. Wonder what other #macroeconomics nerds think about this? www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqtr...

as the backlash begins to show itself, never let the bootlicking windsocks like zuckerberg and bezos ever forget what theyve done and said

ok, so this is totally out of left field. Taking an interest in Stoicism. Mainly because it's got a lot in common with Buddhism. Stoicism makes the same basic observations, but seems more simple and direct. I could never get on board with reincarnation tbh. Death = eternal dirt nap, deal with it.

Question for the peanut gallery: How long do you keep working at a day job when you've saved enough that you'll be able to live comfortably even with significantly below average investment returns? In other words, how much is enough?

A nephew got his shit taken over bc password reuse and no 2fa. He reached out to me and thought I was gonna go all Liam Neeson on his behalf or some shit. Instead I'm explaining to him what google authenticator is.

pro-tip for mortgages: interest rate buydown calculators don't factor the tax savings (it's deductible). Assuming your effective tax rate is 25%, you can hit break-even in as little as three years.

Quite pleased with the final product. It was hard to see the light at the end of this tunnel for a bit, but we’re happy with the end result. Will be up for order soon, stay tuned!

It really did turn out much better than I thought it would. 😀

The price gouging in health care is insane. Yesterday, I received a seven-month supply of Tirzepatide for $2.4k. Eli Lilly shut down compounders, so the compounder offered a bulk deal for the final refill. Pharmacy price? $11k. Makes $2.4k feel like a bargain, doesn’t it?

This is Otis. He just had his very first vet appointment. Even got to take a picture like it was his first day of school. 12/10 we're proud of you, Otis

a tiny brown dachshund puppy with tan a snoot and eyebrows, and adorably wrinkly ankles sits on a black countertop. next to him is a chalk sign that reads, "My first visit at Vets 4 Paws in Irvine." the sign indicates the wide-eyed puppy's name is Otis, he is 2.2 kilograms, and he's 10 weeks old.

Wow it's amazing how much of tech Twitter has migrated to BlueSky. Sick.

hi Bluesky what's good? Thanks for the invite @daz.bgpstuff.net. Me? Up late working on this book chapter about DNS. What's amazing to me is ARPAnet ran off a single master hosts.txt file from like 1972 until 1983. That was a pretty big network to use a single flat file!
