>This isn't a PR exercise. Context is needed

Thank you for explaining the context so well. But I disagree with your first claim. I'm saying it is totally a PR exercise.

I moved my goalposts?

>symbolic gestures constitute a large part of the fabric of society.

In fact, we all know that saying Thank you may provide real value to both sides, because we mean it

But meaningless gestures, such as a billionaire at a wealthy and healthy company taking a paycut, harm and devalue our social fabric

>I’m curious what your reaction would be if he got a 40% pay increase.

It would be equally performative. This is morality theater. I'd only question his judgment about public relations.

I do understand the reasoning for this adjustment of his salary. I'm simply saying I wish it was not necessary. It's sad.

I wish we could all be mature enough that such pointless symbolic gestures were not necessary. This causes no hardship for Tim and makes no non-negligible impact on Apple's financials or employee wellbeing

Helium's so scarce. You're attempting to reduce ultra high vacuum to even less. Not practical

Remove your focus from making money. Direct yourself at getting better at skills in a generalized way. Indirectly I've learned a lot from my supplementary projects, which supplements my core skillset. My result serendipitously is profit although that's not my target

There's a HN auto filter that removes unnecessary words from titles

That could be the cause

That video looks extremely manufactured. There are so many edits and so many different camera angles.

Maybe it can happen, but is it possible that this video is mostly faked?

You say you can't understand, but the chart you yourself posted (to illustrate price volatilility) also shows a 12,000% increase in price in less than 8 years, up to today.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results, but maybe that, the improbable 12000%, is the thinking that you're trying to understand?

>There is honestly no price I could buy it at where I would be willing to hold.

Really no price? Even given the opportunity to buy at $10, you still wouldn't hold?

>The nice thing is, that the more it continues, the bigger the fall will be.

>It's nicer than the alternative (to explode even later)

These two outcomes are mutually exclusive. You're speaking nonsense.
