Put the cost of things into terms of hours you would need to work to cover its cost. On an individual basis, you know very well how to gauge an hour of your working time, and inflationary effects will become apparent when there is something you used to buy routinely and suddenly find you have to work two or three hours to cover its cost.
4; microecon. Often when asked to solve cost minimization problems with supplied info, it states the problem can’t be solved, and that there might be a problem with the questions.
There are some limitations. I’ve asked some questions relating to my courses and it doesn’t always get it right.
The extent of my knowledge of astrophysics and relativity are around the size of the next comma in this sentence, but wouldn’t a great deal of time pass “inside” such a black hole such that a “universe” could rise and fall in what would seem to us as just a few microseconds due to relativistic effects?
They just let anyone on the internet nowadays. It’s GIF, not GIF. Get it right.
They’re gonna whitewash it, little by little.
It did! A lot of it was quite marginal, but on the whole it was all orchestrated nicely and worked pretty seamlessly.
I used to run a small business, and we did a great number of things (relative to our business size and industry) in order to facilitate sales. Every touch point was designed to minimize the friction between the guest and them spending money. Both subtle things and obvious things.
The marketing started as soon as one visited the website (tracking pixels and FB for re-marketing ads) or called for info (we would try to capture at least name and email for additional marketing—always with explicit permission: “May we have your email address so we can send you additional periodic information?”). We had phone call flows and maximum hold times (3 mins).
We retained detailed guest notes and information which we would use to tailor their following visits (manually; any kind of automation was beyond our technical ability at the time).
I’d have to spend some time thinking of all the other ways we did things. Most of which we implemented in a Disney Magic sort of way, in the sense that things are just sort of magically happening without the guest being concerned about it.
The salient argument was that the source location from the animal is not the wing (it’s the tender) and it already does not contain a bone, he continues: “we don’t ask for boneless tacos, or boneless cars.”
Aye, I did thank you for the correction.
According to Space.com in July 2023, there were 4,487 active Starlink satellites. 26 represents just over 0.5% of the total constellation. Considering it seems like a swarm-type system, 0.5% strikes me as simply the cost of doing business.
Edit: decimals.

So unrealistic
The point of endless impeachments is not that they actually have merit, but that they are intentionally frivolous in order to undermine the tool and make it appear as though it’s only used in political persecution and remove its value and efficacy.
Collectively, I’d say we’re on a gradient ranging from denial to resignation on the stages of grief model.
A lot of people means there’s a lot of social inertia before we see the change reflected as a species.
To give some perspective, that’s a little less than two Nazi holocausts per year for 100 years.
Not a cellphone in sight—just people living in the moment.
I prompted ChatGPT to write and adjust a linear Python script for a repetitive task I needed to automate. It took 30 minutes versus the 6-12 hours I would have consumed if I had coded it myself.
It’s a huge force multiplier when used properly.
And for fuck’s sake don’t raw dog your phone to convenient USB chargers in airplanes, airports, or other public spaces.
Yes the argument can be made that airplanes may enjoy slightly better chain-of-custody type security, but fr the number of people I see who dgaf plugging their junk into USB brothels is wild.
