all Jay has to do is stop the tapering nonsense & just end QE next week & raise rates by a 1/4 point in January, but of course that risks bringing about a recession, cause let's face it: The entire economy is dependent on market trajectory & Fed liquidity. Can't do without.
just think – people helping each other. this is despicable

Cressida Dick - whose job was saved by Boris Johnson - refusing to investigate Boris Johnson - and therefore helping to save his job - is a striking example of the Establishment, and how they get away with it

i have not paid a dime of interest in my god damn life but you can bet your sweet ass that i furnished my apartment this year instead of waiting until february to have the funds i need to buy shit, all the while inflation blows up and tries to fuck me in the ass. king shit
how bout instead of aping into a new shitcoin you ape your income into some cheap debt that all major banks are practically begging you to take with no downside if you’re not a backbirth
just bought a shoe rack and some coat hangars with that money i didn’t spend on my chase manhattan amazon dot com rewards credit card which has 0% APR for 99 months. call or click today baby capital one whats in your wallet
same reason computer programs operate trivially on a single core yet scaling them to multitudes of processors requires a lot of thought.

Is there a general theory of why "small and nimble" seems to be common factor for any kind of innovation?
- startups
- military (commando units/ guerillas?)
- skunkworks
Has to be more than pure explore % and selection effects I feel.

i swear this shit just writes itself man
everything is a self-own when you work in an industry so thoroughly debased like this
i would be the first person to be telling everybody that we need A LOT MORE OF AN INTERVENTION THAN “HAVING A CONVERSATION” ABOUT THIS

Starting to think that making remote code execution a core feature in Java might not have been the best design choice.

ESG investing is a scam used to float monies to oet projects that sound good and at best do nothing snd at worst fleece investors
and the whole fucking industry is in on it because people as a whole a fucking stupid
RT @_djpn
not a single fucking non-nuclear initiative actually achieves the wholly stated goals of any ESG investment
it’s just a less shameful way of making sure their kids are occupied AND paid well enough to continue not to have to do anything valuable with their lives nor see plebians
RT @_djpn
“ESG, where we who Can Do dont give a flying fuck about the actual outcomes in regards to our stated preferences, our kids and their friends need ‘jobs’ that are commensurate to their social level and this is the only shit they’re capable of because they’re retarded fuckwits”
