Just curious if you’ve any anecdotes about behavior of nouveau generation. While not a parent myself I’ve heard many times from parent and youth peers that the new generations are entirely lacking IRL social skills, instead deferring their social lives entirely to their digital presence. As a result, basic conversational skills development is limited.

Internet connected the world, and changed how we interact fundamentally. Blockchain uses the internet to create politically resistant money as a primary use case. Just not seeing how blockchain fits into any ongoing revolution, in part because it only can exist because of government/corporate controlled pipes on which it relies.

Sadly, such tools tend to be used also by bad actors. One of sound principle surely supports folks defending themselves against genuine oppression, yet I question the net effect of commoditizing what was once the domain of cypherpunks and criminals.

It would be quite different if they reduced speed without a need to control battery expenditure. Planned obsolescence is a benefit to future sales, but seems this is a technical requirement to work around limitations of batteries.

Transparency to end user would be helpful to end user. Doesn’t full performance come back when running on wire power?

First, check if old person really does want to grind hard on coding. If not, there could be issues that came up or accumulated over time. Burnout is most likely example - how many humans do well staring at code for decades? Not all programmers become more productive over time. Just an anecdote really but surely this is the case for many.

We’ve come a long way from the 2007 study by Italian nuns on the connection between stress and disease. You know, which I read about at the job I started on March 15th (ref: HELen).

This thread helps confirm my long term desire to self terminate. I didn’t have much insight into how a bpd looks from both sides but it’s clear to me that having a psychiatric disorder can put someone in a whole different universe from others despite appearances.

If someone believes others are out to get them, if they’re sensitive, or whatever behaviors they manifest, who is anyone to say what they feel is right or wrong? Their behaviors may not fit in with society at large, but nobody can speak to their perceptions.

The world is complicated now and people on average have a more intricate social universe than ever before. I’m sad to say that I couldn’t find my place in human society. Seeing where I am at personally relative to what I’ve learned from this thread is very painful.

Wishing for the best for everyone here. Nobody should have to suffer and it’s commendable that so many fight the good fight. Be well.

Reading this thread is very disheartening. BPD symptoms are so common, and probably possible to see from afar, for instance the lone wolf who got picked on in school probably has better than average chance of eventually developing such symptoms.

Who is Julia? Just curious. Thanks for sharing your perspective and following up with the other poster in detail.

You believe housing will fall in fiat? So a $1MM home will be $900k, etc? What’s btc have to do with this? Why would housing go down in fiat if bitcoin is going up in fiat?

Is anyone pricing housing indexes in bitcoin? You could maybe come up with one yourself.
