I am in similar position, but 45, negative net worth and alimony. I had two problems: environment (it should motivate better), and health (not 20 anymore, but still have shitty habits). If you have $500, I would suggest to take 6 months sab

This feels like doctors recommending smoking in 1950ties! Maybe it is a survivor bias, weak cells die sooner, so only measured brain cells are super strong :)

Someone who has access to Pegasus is not going after finances. I had modest amount of ethereum on my PC, was hacked, but I still had control over my wallet. If you have $1M+ it should not be tied to your sim card, GMail account etc... If yo

It is VERY expensive problem to fix. Cleaning environment, replacing old pipes... Other issues like smoking can be milked on taxes. EU went quite far, even banning lead from solder.

A already have enough work on $X/day. If they need to be compliant and treat me like their corporate drone, I am happy to comply. I can charge X*5 and spend one week working on my opensource project. This is basic marketing. Airbnb, F

Opensource license is a form of contract. I provide free 5 minute support to new users. And good luck suing me if I am not even US/EU based. Departments (small managers) are authorized to spend small money without approval, lets say u

And? My country produces electricity mostly from coal, ICE uses way less energy, but everyone will argue tooth and nail electric vehicles are CO2 neutral and green! Why this creative statistics should not be used in this plant? For example

If we anchor inflation in some stable asset, like gold, data are very different. Gold is remarkably stable indicator, per hour salary of shoemakers in 15th and 20th century in gold are very similar.

We abandoned "closed loop nutrient systems" long time ago for good reasons. Prion and hormonal pollution are comparable to radiation. Also "Fritz" is very nacy name. And fertilisers can be used as bombs. Very very bad b

It is good if you want to avoid javascript, it is programming on web, but with solid Java tooling. My main point is to have the same language on front and backend.

Maybe I live in different environment. I see women wearing yoga pants and tank tops at official environment, and cheap plastic dresses at evening. Men are expected to wear expensive suits, watches, leather shoes and splash cash all around

I do. Data management and visualisation for local data store. This stuff is private and can not really go into cloud. Was using Java Swing until very recently. Switched to Kotlin JS in browser, not sure it can count as desktop anymore.

Is that really going to solve any problem? 70% of college graduates are now women, and there are still complains of income disparity etc.. Now we even discover there are not enough "eligible bachelor" to marry..
