I have yet to see a more worthless peace of garbage software than Siri. I use it to text or call my wife while driving and it will work only about 50% of the time. I can’t use it for anything else. It…

> Majority of professors became professors because there were very good at passing standard exam (and, TBH, some are not good at anything else). Is this a French thing? In the US we don't have…

> They are designed for people ironing or cooking; you can leave the room for twenty minutes and miss absolutely nothing. Damn, this explains Brazilian and Indian soap operas so well too!

I hope you are right but I don't have any confidence in a Democratic party controlled Congress. I have never seen a meeker group of politicians. They will struggle to get everyone on board and so…

Yeah, Uruguay is also surprising.

The presence of Brazil and Thailand on this list stumped me.

Thanks for the link. I think I bought one in August 2025 and got a great deal. Now my willingness to pay is anchored to that price :) I know it is irrational but I also don't need it urgently.

Thanks. That explains it.

Yeah totally bonkers. In general, most people severely underestimate how long the government agencies take to process something.

The payback calculation doesn't consider time value of money. They are paying down £40K today but the savings are realized over years in the future. But they implicitly assumed the discount rate …

This is likely because for many young people the only source of news is social media. And they are unlikely to be targeted to see the political ads. Interestingly, occasionally I see political ads on …

I remember watching a clip from Jimmy Kimmel on YouTube where they asked people on the street in LA whether they planned to vote in the 2024 presidential election. The twist was that they were doing t…

Thanks for the link

This sounds more like problem of HP’s dock than a Mac. Just because they said it is officially compatible with Mac doesn’t mean it is. Also, compatible with which Mac- Intel or M series? I use three d…

I received a password reset request email just yesterday. Not sure what they fixed.

Is there a way to try it out without signing in?

This is impressive because whenever I hear Goldman Sachs, this line by Matt Taibbi comes to mind: The world’s most powerful investment bank is a great vampire squid wrapped around the face of hum…

I am guessing you have detailed data as you took 3 months to put it together. I suggest regressing wages on various employer-, employee-, and job-specific characteristics. That analysis will be more i…

I bought BYD stock in 2025 before split in the hope that their market dominance will translate to great returns. The stock has pretty consistently traded down since then. Meanwhile Tesla stock soared …

Americans? Elon Musk is one person. He might be the richest person in the world but he doesn't represent us.

If you want to understand how Tesla bulls pump the stock, check out any of the numerous videos of Dan Ives you will find on YouTube. He is regularly invited on CNBC and other financial new media as we…

Thanks! This looks nice
