I have a 1st generation SE bought in 2017 and still haven't replaced my battery. It's life isn't great, but I can generally get through the day without charging. I've thought of upgrading for the same reason as your mom

I love this post. Just the perfect amount of sarcasm to force readers to think for themselves.

Does this really effect anything? If it did you figure the economic statistics would show drastic changes starting round then.

Wait you don’t have an extra room to use as an office? What about in one of your other houses? One of them has got to have at least one empty room you could use right?

Lol. Did you even read what you linked. The government hired mercenaries and they were brutally evil. That must’ve been because the government doesn’t have enough power. Let’s just say Amazon and the government are both equally evil. You ge

The article brings up that for most a home office is a luxury. And i thought how is that possible, just use some extra room in your house. Then I remembered having a house and an extra room might be an easy thing to attain as a software dev

I love the space trilogy. Out of the silent planet helped me think of what the “heavens” are. I’d definitely recommend them, though I love thinking of t he symbolic nature of things.

> In a way, spacetime itself is therefore the aether. This somehow reminds me of C.S. Lewis’s “Out of the Silent Planet”, where the narrator says regarding the protagonist “He wondered how he could ever have thought of planets, even on E

What I figure is the printed money is given to people to buy things. It’s given to him who saved/inherited his money and could’ve bought that thing anyways, and to him who didn’t save/inherit his money and couldn’t. The seller of

So at what point would printing trillions of dollars have an effect? If we just gave everyone 10k a month, would inflation occur then?

This seems counterintuitive to me if we assume a causal relationship. I’d imagine lessening religious faith would lessen ideological intensity. Then again when it was assumed most people were “religious”, it meant there was some higher thin

These questions and some of the percentages really makes me wish I could see what other people think average is. It would be interesting to see how often those who are actually less than average said they were more and vice versa.

Could it also be possible that it is experiencing well being that causes you to have a higher income? Like let’s say I have a great marriage, good well behaved kids, lots of close friends, so I have maybe a network of people I can turn to,

I’d say quoting Krugman is doing exactly what the ancestor comment said > and yet we will continue to believe the people making the incorrect predictions, especially when they reinforce our worldview. I take Krugman’s advice with a grain

I think you might have been missing his point. It came off to me that he was trying to defend drug addicts not shame people using drugs. Like if you have no money the way you might treat your anxiety is different than the way the wealthy de

You’re missing the point. A lot of these athletes come from very underprivileged backgrounds and worked their asses off to get there even then they often in the NFL let’s say have 2 year careers. Let’s say they made 500k over two years so t

I watched sports then and watch them now. I just love to see awesome athletes who have honed their bodies and reflexes to such a crazy degree do things I could never do. The interjection of social justice issues hasn’t yet taken anything aw

That’s true. I should be more fair. My comment is a bit out of frustration at maybe one or two other comments. While the criticism against “good habits build wealth” is legit when it leaves out the inheritance fact, i think I was just annoy

Here’s a guy who saved his money and invested it and made a huge fortune from an inherited fortune, all so he could give it away. The response - “ugh what an a-hole, who inherited his wealth”. I’m so sick of hacker news. I mean if you were

Well my guess is you haven’t been to many non evangelicals churches nor looked at how they act or behave. The church reveres a woman above all other humans save him who was both God and man. Orphanages were setup by churches. Hospitals, sch

I’d say the church from Rome has always had problems like any group of humans. Collectively the churches established by the apostles I’d say got the truth right. Though if I were to pick a date where they went seriously wrong and led to wha

A lot of christians foolishly think there is not any truth beauty or goodness in other world views and refuse to learn from them. There is a lot a Christian can learn from Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, even Mormons, and probably a who

Oh don’t get me wrong. I know this is my opinion. And I don’t think Hindus and Muslims don’t have very high symbols and good world views. I’m just saying from what I’ve seen the symbol that Christ is it is very high and explains the world w

See, but even your straw man is based on that post schism period. And the church is what taught us that even those traditionally “on the fringe” should be valued and not discarded. You’re taking up the position the church convinced the worl

Exactly. Fundamentalists miss the actual fundamentals. People mistake the American Evangelical Christianity that is a few hundred years old for the church established by the apostles nearly 2000 years ago. That church was it which considere

Now I’m dissatisfied with what I put. There are just so many but these popped in my head first. Saw others put “the moon is a harsh mistress” ++ to that. LOTR I feel like changes me for the better with every re-reading.
