Not to go into too much detail. But in a debt based system you have bonds and currency. A bond has the risk of not being repaid, speculators speculate in the likelihood of that and their individual decisions give a market price for that bond. Likewise bond may have repayment price-indexed and speculators then speculate indirectly in the currency's price stability.

Point is that even with stable prices, there is plenty of room for speculators.

I am a grad student in a top european university in CS, and tough love has been my experience as well. We have access to the grade distributions and they are steep but not multimodal, with many students failing the first mandatory and notorious courses.

The usually grade depends on a single test, often oral which puts additional burden, plus, to even qualify for the test, students need to achieve well above 50% average on homework assignments.

A science goes much faster when you have objective observations and measurable quantities. That is the only reason why economists are so focused on prices, GDP, incomes.

It would be great to have objective measures of happiness, satisfaction, enjoyment. Some people are actually pursuing attempts in that direction for instance look [1]

Thing is, prices are a proxy of that. If you earn 30 USD an hour, then being ready to pay something 30 USD means you evaluate it at about an hour of work worth.

> My gripe with all schools of economics is how real estate/land market is completely abstracted away

Your gripe with "all schools" of economics is a straw man then. Land (and the wider concept of rent) features in an enormous number of economic models, from externalities to explicitly location-based theories like Hotelling's Location Model to Keynes' desire for macroeconomic policy to "euthanize the rentier". Ricardo didn't propose a "housing cycle"; claims (good and bad) made about real estate markets and the economy are all the work of economists writing a very long time afterwards.

And Ricardo's concept of economic rent is one of the first things you learn as an undergraduate. It's just it's applied to non-land factors of production and products with inelastic supply curves now too.

Since we're no longer living in an primarily agricultural/mining society, the Ricardian notion that most of the fruits of all economic progress accrue to large scale landowners isn't a particularly realistic one. You could have made a lot of money investing in Bay Area real estate in the nineties, but an order of magnitude or three more investing in the tech companies whose growth made Bay Area real estate more valuable.
Ah, memories! Later in the 90s they (who?) introduced a new automated service which I think was called “0800 REVERSE”. The beauty of it being automated was you could quickly give the required message in full, or even the number of the payphone you were calling from.

Or he needs the price of Bitcoin to dip a bit so he can invest more.

I’m sold on Bitcoin as “digital gold”, but for highly-visible entities it’s way too easy to game without repercussions. E.g. Musk likely has a bunch of patsies ready to buy and sell before or after one of his outbursts. You do that with actual commodities or companies, you go to jail; you do it with bitcoin, and people just shrug, “oh well, anyone in that market knows it’s wild”.
I think some people here might be reacting to a title that confirms their preconceptions and are missing one of the main points of the article - that conscientiousness is probably a stronger, more well-defined and more reliable predictor of success than grit.

The Soviet's didn't really know how to properly make use of "their" Germans though, at least for working on concrete projects. Only very few designs of German teams actually made it into production (like the turboprop engines used in the Tu-95: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tupolev_Tu-95), but the Soviets never trusted their Germans enough to really integrate them longterm with Russian teams, instead the goal was to extract the German knowledge as fast as possible and then "dump" them (most German engineers and researchers captured by the Soviets were allowed to return to Germany around the mid- to late-50s, leading to interesting, but ultimately doomed projects like the first German jet airliner Baade 152: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baade_152).

Meanwhile the "American Germans" were welcomed, decided to make the US their new home and contributed heavily to the US space programme.
Nobody is talking about removing the green parts. I'm talking about completely unused wasteland in active parts of the city. The space could be used to create actual parks, stores, or more housing units, but it is instead just a place where dust, wild plants, and waste accumulate.

As long as the vertical resolution is good, widescreen just means more space for side by side windows.

I run my 4K 27" desktop monitor at 150% scaling, and usually snap two windows side by side, sometimes up to four windows with corner snapping. It's like having two portrait mode monitors side by side.

On my laptop, the 1366x768 screen lacks the resolution to do this. Vertical resolution is the key, no matter the form factor.

I'd have a lot more considered fun, and travel. And work over the university break instead of living off unemployment benefits and sulking. I passed up going to the hiring fair for a pre msdos Microsoft era, the industry was nascent. Can't decide if I dodged a bullet or not.

I'd also recommend having lots and lots of consensual sex. Nobody my age or above (near retirement) recommends working harder. Have experiences while you're young.

When you have wasted space in a city with massive rent increase, then yes, it's horror. The land could be easily used to create new park areas, stores, or housing units. Instead you have absolutely nothing other than waste accumulating.

Try to find joy in moments of peace and stability, a nonstop rollercoaster ride isn't surmountable. Keep drugs (including alcohol) at least under 2 occasions per 2 weeks, even - especially - weed, more is not even really enjoyable and the unusualness is major part of the magic. Don't get into debt. Automate payments of your bills. Dont take a stance (like/hate) until you try it youself and few days pass. It's okay to remain undecided. Buy a good mattress, pillow and duvet; make up the bed, it's not just for show but improves the experience greatly. Lay down at exactly the same time every day and don't use any electronics 30 minutes before. Exercise - or at least a 10km walk on most days. Take good care of your back, if you haven't until now then this is the time when actual problems start. Less fatalism - relax, have fun, chill out - there are at least 3 entire lifetimes in front of you. Don't identify and live only by your work, even if it's your absolute passion and you have the best job ever. Never identify by a company, even if it's your own. Contact your siblings, parents, grandparents and friends often.

Most importantly: Design your life, make a plan of immediate actions, review both often and execute the steps. Living a good life is an activity that needs to be actively done. Sadness of wasted years will be deep.

Speculator, investor ... I don't want to pass judgement. I listen what ARK Invest says, I think they are smart people, but I also think they overshoot.
The key characteristic of Ponzi schemes, I think, is that there is no real value and returns are paid based solely on new cash coming in. There’s shady bookkeeping only as an artifact to hide the cash-in/cash-out structure.

I think this applies to Bitcoin because it’s payouts are solely based on speculation and new cash coming in.

risk always changes. you should be constantly reviewing and updating your exposure according to your risk assessments. (for some, this is daily; for others, once a year may be enough.) if you don't want to do the work - understandable, since it's an impossible amount - you might want to start from looking at the bond market. this is what they get paid for. (not saying that you should be buying bonds - but look at relative price of bonds)
>Think I realised a while ago that nothing _predicts_ success.

I understand what you're trying to say but as fyi... you're using "predict" in colloquial terms which is very different from math statistics where "predictor variable" is a term-of-art:
https://www.google.com/search?q=%22statistics%22+%22predicto...

(a) term-of-art statistics example: the X independent variable represents low to high blood alcohol level which is a predictor for car crashes (represented by Y). A high blood alcohol of 0.20% is a better predictor of drivers causing car crashes than the amount of salt eaten in a meal.

(b) colloquial usage: Nothing "predicts" car crashes because my uncle Jim drank a whole bottle of vodka and didn't hit anybody when driving home -- while a Tesla self-driving car with no blood alcohol at all crashed into a tree! Predictions about car crashes are bogus.

Different usage of (a) and (b) is example of equivocation fallacy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivocation

Another way to look at it: (a) is often about aggregates and groups (aka statistics) but (b) is about personal anecdotes or obersvations where n=1. This means they will disagree because they're talking about different things.

EDIT reply to : >Well, it's hardly "colloquial" usage, more like conversational, dictionary, typical, etc.

I don't what correction you're trying to make here. The top link for https://www.google.com/search?q=colloquial&oq=colloquial

... is : "(of language) used in ordinary or familiar _conversation_; not formal or literary."

That matches what you said.

>The comment didn't seem like it was grounded in maths/stats terminology.

Yes, and that was actually the main point of my comment. This thread's Nautilus article of "predict" refers to research studies which talks talks about statistical predictor variables ("grit" being the X axis independent variable). The gp comment copies the word "predict" in his own comment but uses it in a non-statistical meaning and readers may not be aware of the silent switch in usage. (Equivocation.)

E.g. Do SAT test scores "predict" income level? It can be "yes" or "no" depending on which meaning of "predict" one is using.

“One week of pumping” isn’t true at all: DOGE originally broke into the top 10 list off the back of the GME hype several weeks ago. This is now the second time it’s happened. In addition, DOGE has undeniably flippened numerous B-rate defi coins throughout its very illuminating run.

Importantly, DOGE clearly shows innovation isn’t necessary for a coin to receive a sky high valuation. Dogecoin at c. 7.5 years old is about as old as any other coin I can remember, and it’s been all but dead for that entire length of time. Now suddenly DOGE is more valuable than the great majority of coins which have been historically propped up by generous amounts of drum beating — e.g. “wow, such innovative”.

What does that tell you about the importance of innovation in cryptocurrency valuation?

Either these coins never needed to innovate in the first place, or all the purported “innovation” drum beating by biased defi investors has always been nothing more than empty rhetoric.
Quite impressive.

Honestly, I kind of wish that underground megastructures were more of a thing here on Earth. Here, you'd run into trouble with groundwater, but that should be solvable. A bigger objection is that natural caves really ought to stay natural so that people can enjoy them or animals can use them as habitat. Filling in man-made quarries and pit mines with human structures could be done, though. I live in a city that has a giant hole in the ground that I never knew about until I drove past it one day; I fantasize about building a massive apartment complex / shopping center / park there, but am prevented from doing so because a) I don't have even a tiny fraction of the money required for such a project and b) the city land use planning department (which happens to be next door to the giant hole) would never allow me to do that even if I could afford it.

Anyways, part of the interest in living in a habitat on Mars is that it would be on Mars, doing (potentially) important work establishing an outpost in space that gives us easier access to the rest of the solar system. Rocket fuel can be made on Mars, and the weak gravity makes it easier to transport stuff up and down the gravity well. Getting back and forth to the belt (which may have significant mineral resources) is easier than from Earth. Basically, going to Mars isn't about just going to Mars, it's about establishing a foothold in space. It's also something we could plausibly do with current technology, if there's enough funding and enthusiasm to make it happen.

You realise that these properties in the picture (Plac Defilad right in the centre of Warsaw) are worth a lot nowadays.

So I would rather say that real estate could be illiquid with temporarily depressed prices occasionally.

We might eventually end up doing something like that if we don't get CO2 emissions under control. However, it's not a complete solution. It wouldn't do anything to address ocean acidification, for instance, which is one of the lesser-known consequences of excess CO2 in the atmosphere. That's why we really ought to be concentrating on emitting less carbon dioxide.

To be fair, I think we're talking about READMEs for technical projects here, probably hosted on Github/Gitlab/... And in that context your example is totally clear to me: it's a framework for running (background) jobs asynchronously (i.e. code that does not need to run on the main thread of your program and block) and you can use it both on the server and the browser (so probably JS/TS) and it's not intended to be feature rich.
