I’ve woken up twice under anesthesia. When I wake up, I’m sort of frantic and they just zap me with more drugs and I pass back out. I honestly don’t think it’s a big deal and sort of cool I remember a little bit of the process. I’m not like in pain or anything, just awake.
I thought if we made workers poorer then it’d force a more competitive environment! How did this basic core macro-economic principle of neo-liberal economics fail us?!
I can bring two magnets close to each other and feel their fields interact so I know fields are real. Why not more fields, idk. What holds atoms together? Fuck if I should know, probably more magic fields. In the point of view of a photon, it travels instantaneously to its destination? That seems fake.
Any blockers. Yes many.
We’re not at war with China. China is our largest trading partner. Realistically we could never be at war with China because our lives would be terribly hard without them. Stop wanting to be at war with China. Do they realize what that means???
I hope they know they’ll become old one day and will need your help, I hope you remind them of how shitty they treated you and you get closure.
Glad they’ll overflow so I can still go rat spotting.
Meat glue (Transglutaminase) is a heavily used food additive in the US and is GRAS (generally recognized as saf). Manufacturers don’t need to report in their ingredients because supposedly the enzyme deactivates when it heats up. I was playing around with it in bread making to increase the amount of gluten in bagels. I stopped when I read some research papers that the health effects were not clearly understood and some people have raised some alarm bells that it might not be.
100%, it can get even crazier too, if people think there is inflation then it causes inflation. Macro-economics isn’t real and its 80% in peoples heads, 20% material conditions.
Inflation is governed by the supply of money. Monetary Policy controls how much money is in circulation and managed by the central bank. Fiscal Policy controls selling bonds to the public to make up for finance budget deficits without increasing inflation, and is managed by the government.
So the government borrows (e.g. sells bonds to the public) to raise money without increasing inflation.
Five hundred dollars? Are you serious? Just for an hour? That’s absolutely ludicrous. I mean, listen, I’m a tech guy, right? I solve problems worth millions to companies. And even I don’t pull down that kind of hourly rate. Let me break it down for you, because there’s no way the value adds up here. Just think about it logically, for the cost of one hour, I could upgrade my entire home entertainment setup and enjoy it for years. Or better yet, I’d throw that $500 into crypto. Now that’s an investment. Bitcoin, Ethereum - hell, even some of the newer altcoins. Exponential potential returns. This? This is just… it’s poor financial planning, is what it is.
But then a philosopher could operate a switch between two moral dilemmas, do you really want /that/ reality.
With no accountability, accidents become a social cost, which the government is ultimately responsible for. Inaction is negligence.
When your fire insurance is worth more than your house.

The official whitehouse briefing said that he ‘underscored’ that a ceasefire would improve things and urged them to negotiate, and it wasn’t conditional. I can’t wait for someone to tell me to vote for biden because he called for a ceasefire.

It’s a confidence scam. Make Biden appear as a trusted figure. Present a false dichotomy by presenting the election as a critical choice between stability and chaos. Then create a sense of urgency then lean into the bandwagon effect to finish it off.
They won’t do it so it’s not even worth thinking about.
