I can understand not wanting discrimination on employees, but we really ought to be allowed to google businesses before spending our time applying. Some of them are blatant scams!

Wait do people seriously apply to mystery companies? I’d interpret this as the company knowing their reputation is bad.
Tell you what, I’ll apply if you don’t need to see my name until I’m hired.

I just put my piano fingers in my pockets while I’m walking around. I think it looks sophisticated.

As in, the rate of inflation was added to the mortgage rate you were offered. This is because tax incidence falls on the less elastic side of each trade, and credit supply is much more elastic than housing demand.

How are you measuring the concentration of economic power - Gini coefficient?

Who would lend at a negative rate besides friends and family? Here’s a bar of gold, please give me back half a bar of gold in a year.

Inflation was added to your mortgage rate. And now that everyone saves with real estate instead of saving money, the cost of real estate is very high.
So while your payments do go down over time, your hours worked to either rent or own have gone up.

We’ve had inflation as we know it since the 1970s and still had economic downturns since then. Were we simply not printing money hard enough?

Yes. Maybe? I don’t know traditional code planning methods. I guess?

I think most people should get a 0 day work week. We could have fully automated luxury gay space communism.

I’ve had a difficult time negotiating this as an American mechanical engineer. There’s this bizarre norm of working long weeks even though we get paid way more than most jobs.
I just want health care and they won’t offer it at 35 hours. If I’m missing some obvious trick here, please inform me!
- Comment on Bernie Sanders says that if AI makes us so productive, we should get a 4-day work week 1 week ago:
I do. Part of my job involves writing code and I often don’t even know where to start. When I get the first draft I’ll know which documentation to read, and then I make it actually work. Even when the LLM fails completely, writing its prompt serves as a rubber duck.

- Comment on Dear Leader 2 weeks ago:
Nixon instituted inflation as we know it because of the Vietnam War, and inequality skyrocketed. It’s a lot easier to strike with savings than with credit scores.
