billionaire adorers remind me of this…

“Socialism never took root in America because the poor see themselves not as an exploited proletariat but as temporarily embarrassed millionaires”

when you have this money you can “live” anywhere you want. he can have breakfast in Paris and still make the Broadway show and also get AirBnB for like a year in SF and then also like basically be wherever you want to be regardless of where your “mailing address” is. I have a friend who is 7-digit rich that lives in SF (for the past 8 years) but “lives” in Florida. sounds like our billionaires can’t figure this out so it makes the news (in the middle of about 857 other more important things going on)

the math is not mathing today

shows you also how “smart” they are to “live” in Cali in the first place. you got billions, park yourself wherever the F you don’t have to pay jacksht for being a billionaire prick and get yourselves on of them houses in Cali to actually live instead of whatever shthole houses billionaires for free

They are not moving anywhere. Baron will be President one day, this is about as certainty as that Sun will rise tomorrow morning. As much as people may like or not the Trump family is now part (big part) of the fabric of the United States and he will be remember (for better or worse) as one of the most influential Presidents ever. The fact that he should be in rotting in prison (probably should have spent most of his adult life there for crimes he committed before he ever got into politics) is a moot now. He will live in NYC and Mar-a-Largo, his family is not going anywhere and will be in the White House again in 8 to 12 years.

so your target are users that:

- have an iPhone

- have a Mac

- have never heard of Homebrew to install BLEUnlock

This is a very small market, you may not want to shell out $99 as you probably want make that money back.

It would be quite amazing if people in the US realized how much brain went to China in the last 16 months. I am a govie (contractor) and just what I know alone is …

USA will never have UBI, period. So any idea that includes any mention of is an absolute non-starter. Outside of the USA, perhaps, but for us that is never happening.

your local hospital administrator is building what exactly? she/he works for free? if you are in America you picked another evil empire, US health system - try and pick something else………

there is no rationale to pure nonsense

and we give a hoot exactly why? america first, yes? why aren’t we in sudan, a lot more dire situation. give us a break with this nonsense

projects you were never going to finish should stay projects that are never finished :)

> When it comes to books, I avoid anything written by an author debuting after 2022

This is how civilizations end… Like we are done writing books now? Art too? We gonna stop here? Not sure I understand how this makes any sense…

> He's good at that. But is he actually any good at building things which enrich society without making him money?

Name one human for whom this answer would be true - just one please? (not defending Zuck, he is probably one of the most evil people in the history of the entire civilization)

the social part was phenomenal back in the day. when facebook took off I reconnected (and stayed connected) with a lot of people. my “feed” was nothing but posts from my friends and family that I cared about. I extensively used DM to talk to my friends privately. everyone got hooked on it purely because it was as social as it gets outside of real life

cut up a line of coke at a public place, preferably next to a police officer and see how that works out for you :)

if you get caught buying/using/… you go to prison

> Additionally, they have supported Russia consistently during their occupation of Ukraine

And who are we supporting since roughly 01/2025? :-)

supply is never an issue, USA would supply poison to entire planet if the demand was there. blaming Mexico for the sickness of our society is very rich (but often repeated)

if I had a dollar for every company that is trying to “weaken NVIDIA” I’d richer than Elon

exactly, they would not give two shits about what your business does if they got immunity from any prosecution

amazing how often is this repeated on here are some sort of a gospel SWEs pass down to one another to continue this charade. I have worked in this industry for 30+ years on countless projects, last decade+ as consultant - at every single project (every single one) programming time was the limiting factor. there is a whole industry inside our industry dealing with “processes” and “how to estimate” (apparently we are incapable of doing that) and whatnot, all because the actual programming time is always a limiting factor and there isn’t an even close 2nd

for anyone that actually bought “America First” I have some Enron stock options to sell

What is lacking for it to be social media (IMO). - no direct messaging (lacking social aspect) - no media (text only) - no phone app - no ads - no influencers - no company feeding you algorithmic shit to make you buy shit - not evil :)

if anyone knew what agile is maybe more would have a chance if making it work (it won’t). in my 30* the only “process” that worked and works is “hire the right people and get the F out of the way.”

my sample size is similar but "gender"-based - single women and married men prefer in-office

if you spend time traveling (I have, significant time - can't imagine a different life) you will unmistakably conclude that happiest people, by far are from the poor(est) countries. it is only "western minds" that think (this is ingrained in societies like USA) wealth and happiness are correlated.

the happiest part of my life was when I had nothing materially (but no debt, just basically at zero, making enough to live paycheck to paycheck)

it is being attacked precisely because it is ubiquitous. no one is going to attack haskell, erlang or whatever no one uses.

previous POTUS? you meant current, right?

be like slovenia
