@dalmaer And they wonder why sales drop. When I bought my Tesla 3 in 2018 I figured I'd have FOMO and want to upgrade every 5 years. Nope.

@paulg Clarification: Search engines before Google were focused on how much the page text seemed relevant to “rugby”. The Google innovation was to consider inbound links as quality markers, recursively. That’s PageRank.

@patio11 If you offer me $20 value for $8, it seems like there’s a high risk of it being a scam. You want my $8. If you offer me $10 for free, it sounds like typical marketing.

@joshbloch @sampullara I’m ok if we wait til they die to get the cap gains taxes collected but today all cap gains are forgiven upon death which just seems insane to me.

@lishiyori When you're young, the expected value of trying something new is high, because you can enjoy the new discovery for a long future life. As you age you'll have tried most things, don't see as much utility in a new find, and can go with the tried-and-trusted.

[Jason Hunter @hunterhacker]
