so long and income exceeds or keeps up with inflation growth, it doesn't matter

Yup. SAP and their glorious idocs with german acronyms

In a modern money/fiat money regime, the federal government can afford anything in nominal terms. As such, the solution would be to subsidize the industries that make the most sens…

Do they let anyone pick for free ?

Its a thing. Living in hurricane alley, I see it all the time. Lines at gas stations, grocery stores, hardware stores. My strategy is to wait till the 11th hour after supply trucks…

Absolutely false. Worse case is dollar going down. Interest rates are exogenous and controlled by the fed who can buy all the treasuries in the world at a moment's notice. The trea…

There is no proof that higher interest rates lead to greater unemployment. In fact, macro employment kind of boomed during the referenced period. I'd posit that higher rates actual…

a tech mentor once told me what makes a developer great is not how good or talented he is but how good he makes those around him be.

I have a gf in Goias brazil . She told me that she was mugged 7 times for her cell phone years ago . Then a new governor came along and began a policy of. allowing police to execut…

3 decades. me too. since 97. maybe uber driver was a bad example. what about having a work model similar to a lawyer? whereby one can specialize in creating certain types of busine…

oh. yeah. finance is to big. they've captured the government.

like someone said above. demand is infinite. imagine a world where the local AI/Engineer tech is a ubiquitous as the uber driver. don't think it will necessarily create smaller pay…

as long as we keep learning and our heads in the game we will be fine. I worry much more for the non-techno savy like scrum masters. yikes.

yeah 100% . picking up pennies in from of the train. thanks for the bits. so I should search on "Variance Swaps"? . I do a great deal of options trading and play around with some A…

this is a better world. we can work a few hours a week and play tennis, golf, and argue politics with our friends and family over some good cheese and wine while the bots do the de…

no I think more engineers. especially those who can be a jack-of-all-trades. if a software project that takes normally 1 year of customer development can be done in 2 months, then …

Think the marginal cost of developing complex software goes down thereby making it affordable to a greater market. There will still be a need for skilled software engineers to unde…

a bigger concern to me is if the current regime pulls the rug out from fiscal policy. This will certainly crash the market. They seem to be doing this as we speak.

yeah. good points. mandlebrot wrote about this as well. that portfolio theory is based "normal" curve returns but crashes occur with much higher probability than a normal distribut…

In large scale business intergration platforms/apps, you have operational systems like SAP and and Oracle Service Cloud generate/stream raw or business events which are published t…

This! Quotas. Max X% of engineering should be H1B's. + Allow H1-B holders to be free agents and move to the highest bidder. + No working at contractors. This is one of the biggest …

All true but most people in the world are worried about putting food on the table and taking care of their kids. Fix social justice and you get on the road to fixing the costs of u…
