  • What are your best tips for falling asleep?

  • Let yourself get a little cold. You'll end up with the blanket, but keep it off as long as possible while you fall asleep.

  • Yes, and when I and you, and anyone else hits 70, then their time influencing the future is over. That's a ballgame, folks.

    It's nothing but pure fucking hubris that keeps these antideluvian fossils in their power stations. Society does not benefit. In fact, progress is constrained as a result.

    So yeah, we will all be old one day. But that doesn't mean we're all destined to be sad old narcissists.

  • Completely understand your viewpoint. I'm also aware though that there is a heavy saturation right now (at least in the DMV, which has historically been a bellwether for the greater economy) of both IT and bioscience/biotech industries. Both fields that also require very smart, educated, and experienced workers. So, I'm saying that things can shift quickly, and workers are always on the losing end, so it pays to note how the winds are blowing, regardless of current status.

  • I think your focus is too narrow and your anger and need for someone to be punished for the awful systems that we are forced to survive within are clouding your ability to see the larger picture specific to the necessities of survival.

    I'm not saying you're wrong, but you sound like you're speaking from a place of privilege, and I am allowing room for the realities of this current-state existence.

    As I said, conflating two separate things. It doesn't void the validity of either to acknowledge them.

  • You're conflating two separate things. I make a distinction between understanding the inherent friction of Labor and Capital along with a broad and deep awareness of the stacked playing field, and also keeping oneself employed by necessity.

  • That's a pretty short term view though, no? Presumably if an expected revenue stream does not generate flow to supplant the initial capital outlay, said business will not be a going concern for long?

    I'm not defending subscription models at all, they're corrosive to the economy, but your comment had me curious.

  • I definitely don't recommend that you look up Tidal downloaders that allow users to keep the music they want from the service. You definitely don't want to build a whole digital library that way.

  • 100%

    Your local library usually has a host of FREE media types. Including regular ol books, which thankfully still remain ad-free.

    (But also movies, and digital readers, and news articles, etc).
