@alanrosca@Noahpinion@grok It’s not feasible right now. Easier and more effective to just shoot them down. With some technological advancement, maybe that calculus changes.
@Noahpinion I mean they can, with a sufficiently powerful or targeted EMP. It’s just that getting a big enough radius is hard, and if you do achieve it, you risk nuking your own shit. It’s hella lot easier to shoot them down compared to that. Though I wouldn’t rule it in the future.
@mattyglesias Do your figures include the effects of payroll taxes and 401k/ira deductions? And I assume it includes standard deduction.
When you figure in payroll taxes the tax curve in the US look a bit more flat (though not as flat as Nordic), tho 401k benefits curve it again a bit.
@HistoryBoomer as a software developer, I feel like the engineer rating would be higher than 3rd even if you clarified it’s like engineers who build planes and bridges and not software jockeys like me.
@DeepDishEnjoyer I mean if you’re paying 3% on a 30 year 500k mortgage, thats $2,100/month vs nearly $3,000/month on a 6% mortgage.
Your monthly bill just went up 42.2%.
Going from 6% to 9% is only 34% increase and 9% to 12% is 27.8% .
The base rate matter in terms of how it effect ppl.
@modestproposal1@ernietedeschi Wow Real median incomes for non-degree cohorts has increased somewhere between 20-50% in the since 2010 (when college worth it graph starts). That explains a lot
@paulg I don’t know for sure, but it’s interesting that a lot of prompt writing guides from the major labs say that providing the model examples of what you DON’T want is as good or better than giving it examples of what you do.
@__alexlazar__@leilavclark The other part tho is <10 hrs a day doesn’t feel like enough time to explore my job. I like my job and it lets me to explore a lot of different aspects of financial markets with tools I would not get anywhere else. Doing 8 hours feels frustrating to me. 10 is about right.
@leilavclark It’s the same at the firm that I’m at, and I’ve found over time that 60 hrs/week is the absolute max I can do to still do good, productive, creative work. 50 hrs/week is the sweet spot for me. Less than that and I feel under utilized and more than that feels like a chore.
