You're making a choice to be resilient - doesn't mean you can't pursue the other course down the line but it's self preservation at this point. I don't think it makes sense to…

Thanks for the heads-up, I didn't realize at time of post

Scotch Bonnet in a tropical hot sauce (carrot, papaya) like Melinda's is killer. It's kind of fun stocking up on peppers from Los Chileros, Booneville Farms, etc and making your own hot sauc…

by 'most', do you mean by those grown/consumed or by variety? because there's a vast array of fruits incl. savory (cucumber, tomatoes, avocado) as well as less common - soursop, ch…

There's truth in this but leaves out anti-inflammatory polyphenols key for brain health like those in blueberries for instance.

That's helpful if you're privileged enough to amass enough to invest before labor's share of output collapses.

It's my understanding that pensions were quite rare, certainly much more so than 401ks, so at least that expectation might be a bit more rosy than reality.

That's assuming all of your current pay is going to necessities - salaries here pay well in excess provided your 'wants' are few, you can cover the things that matter (housing, food, et…

Not really - books and movies at the library are free and those who cultivate interests will find no trouble filling up the day.

what the market delivers and what people want aren't always the same. imo demand is there for smaller dwellings, it's just not profitable enough to get delivered either because of the margin…

My first few white collar jobs were miserable experiences - stress, temperamental bosses, lack of agency, etc. It got better but that took years of effort, at which point I was already thinking about …

note this is only the case for those with early-stage cognitive decline. for healthy individuals, it actually has neuroprotective effects. > Glucosamine mimicked the effects of a low-carbohydrate d…

Plants would just keep chugging at temps 10 °C hotter than they're evolved for?

it's the Prisoner's Dilemma - AC helps the individual at the expense of those outside, for whom it is now hotter (can raise ambient air temp by 2-4C). It worsens global warming in how it is …

I can't agree with you given candidate evaluation is arbitrary, badly targeted, and privilege centered (school/company pedigree). The latter drives ability to get exposure to disciplines and…

It's a tough spot - I thought about using the site to capitalize on some 5000+ careers pages I've curated. I want to help people in their job searches but don't want to give it away for…

it's kind of a weird headline, the issue is about the power wielded by the old, not necessarily the share of the population that is (though this comes with its own problems like fiscal solvency a…

why should the asset prices matter in OER? the aim is understanding cost. BLS no longer questions homeowners but samples local rents to estimate OER since homeowners could've been wrong in their …

If the labor -> wealth pipeline is weakening, then the present won't behave like the past, i.e. you would need assets to success since you won't be able to work your way up.

High housing prices will kill a good economy but having moderate rents will not somehow jumpstart a bad economy. JP's slump isn't evidence against housing theory of everything.
