The CPI changes the basket of goods all the time, and I’ve long suspected the degradation in food quality keeps hitting a lower bar for food processing and quality, which then gets integrated as the permanent price floor as the money supply grows. Margins become too low on anything but shit tier food.
Tell that to BeyondMeat bag holders. -99.10% return in 5 years, the greedy capitalist pigdogs.
Then this turns out to be a fake story to generate clicks, and nothing ever even happened.
I’m worried about Mao’ist style short sighted policy, and if we cut off oil then it will destroy the poor in society who cant afford an increase in their heating and gas. Get the funding for nuclear so you have baseload power first, dont just cut off oil companies.
I feel I like exploring in games like Factorio, the trains delivering faraway resources was the funnest part for me.
Buy GGLL, Google owns mobile, its not going anywhere.
It also uses efficient TPU for AI, so has an advantage there too.
Shoot for a CCNP, and do the certs up to that. Networking is an easy one to get into as everybody else is doing cloud computing, devops, AI, or programming. If you dedicate your life to it like programmers do with side projects then you can get above them in salary as well, though its not necessary.
Maybe it could actually fix microslops crappy online documentation library, thats pro customer.
Relink all the broken links, fix outdated information from patches where they never bothered updating it.

I feel as though money is the lifeblood of society, and I feel when you debase it and squander it people become poorer. Those who horde finite assets become very rich, and real estate gets bid up as an inflation hedge, the currency debasement I believe is the reason we are getting poorer.
Well it must have done so at some point, thats the main difference between first world countries and third world.
Well there was a great society program in the 60’s that ran up debt, by do-gooders who didnt properly fund their ambitions.
Society needs to learn that we need to actually tax the rich and run low deficits if we want to spend big on social programs.
They’re billionaires because of monetary policy, Elon Musk and Tesla wouldnt be worth so much if inflation didnt reward risky assets and provide an unlimited runway to profitability. We bid up asset prices until prices rise 2% a year; prices that exclude assets like housing, subjective hedonic downward adjustments of goods prices, and substitutions/shrinkflation.
Blame the rich if you want, I blame the unelected central bank thats debasing your paycheck with 7% annual money supply growth, QE, and bailouts. If the money supply didnt grow every year you wouldnt need to beg your boss for a cost of living adjustment that doesnt match reality. Our parents ate free range grass fed meat, we eat corn fed factory farm troglodytes, and our children will eat highly processed imitation meat slop, and the CPI will mark no difference between the three.
Its also true that more efficient businesses increases living standards.
I’m not sure AI will ever replace truly skilled labor, because it hallucinates. It replaces people who make PowerPoint’s or Excel documents.
Was it sad when people who looked after horses were made obsolete when we began mass producing cars?
Or people who stoked furnaces?
This romanization of monotonous jobs is silly, and sounds like it wants to thrust us into poverty for some idealistic fantasy that excludes productivity gains. It also seems unrealistic, you cant trust code written by a programmer that randomly hallucinates and cant reliably check their work or explain what they even did.
I just don’t believe the rationale, there is no way threads or even Bluesky match X, its clearly political.
Take the high road and go to open platforms, just don’t lie about why youre supporting the other shitty platforms that censor.
Well I have to just assume given they support the other platforms.
Well it would cause massive deflation, which will cause loose monetary policy, which will debase your paycheck until its cheaper to hire you than it is to use a machine. Which is nothing like capitalism.
