According to Robert Feldman, chief economist at Morgan Stanley MUFG Securities, the data fuels concerns about demographic shifts and a labor crunch in the country.

How the fuck is it his problem though? Is he personally interested in the well-being of Japanese people? No. Does he only care about maximizing his own profits? Yes.

there’s the global trans polycule that i’ve heard about 😉 spreading the word 😚😚

take care of yourselves, you’re worth it 😋😚

I think that’s about as controversial as saying “We should abandon industrialized meat production”.

You can embed LaTeX math formulas in Markdown with $x = y$ on many clients.

Let me try: $f(x) = \frac{1}{x}$.

Doesn’t seem to work on Lemmy. Maybe a bug/missing feature?

also, we need 20h/week, 4 days/week schools.

It’s important for you to learn to set boundaries. And to block questions that you feel are hitting “too close to home”. So don’t respond. Just tell her that you have a private life that you’d like to keep to yourself.

There’s nothing wrong with that. You just need some time and practice to stand up for yourself. :)

I’m worried that she makes herself too much of a target by being so active.

Otherwise than that, fuck Israel, yeah.

it’s the main component of a meal.

two conspiracy theories in one! i love that community.

Cooking rice is a notoriously hard problem (and for that reason I recommend noodles instead) but my tip is:

• Don’t (!) do the 2:1 thing where you mix 2 cups of water with 1 cup of rice. Some of the water will boil off and the ratio will be distorted, except if you close your cooking pot, in which case it begins to foam like crazy and give you something to clean up
• Do just fill a large pot with lots of water and make it boil; then when it boils add the rice and cook a certain time with the pot open. I’ve made the best rice this way.

Did you know that at lemmy, they have special discounts, where you can get two wisdoms for the price of one upvote?

oh wow, the second one is actually impressive. :)

I agree. Nmom kid here. I thought she didn’t have a concept of “truth”. To her, every statement was equally valid as long as it was useful to her. Just complete and total lack of a consistent worldview.

We could have separate instances for the normies and for the femboy linux users. And then, everybody can choose which instances to block/follow.

Tbf, democracies kinda always suffered from this problem.

The italian long-term prime minister Silvio Berlusconi was a comedian before going into politics. And so was english prime minister Boris Johnsson. In other words, they were used to catering to audiences, instead of having technical training. (IIRC)

I disagree. Such a thing is not feasible. In 1500, when the printing press was developed, Martin Luther tried to raise all people in the entire population to be priests, because “now that they have books, they can educate themselves”. Obviously, it didn’t work. I think most people just aren’t made for higher knowledge, and we should accept that fact rather than push people through a high-pressure high-stress levels school system.

I disagree. There’s a lot of reasons why people don’t have children, including:

• emotional devastated youth (abandoned by parents, addicted to smartphones, misunderstood by society)
• people can’t find partners for this reason
• too much stress from too much work
• wages are barely keeping up with inflation, and I project they will in fact not keep up in the long term in the US due to missing labor protections and decreasing demand for labor.
• rising cost of living because politically, nobody really cares about the population.

edit: sorry i realized i made these points US-specific but you were talking about russia, sorry.
