Our economic systems do not support that solution, and I'd bet my life on it this will never happen. In theory a lot of things are fine, reality is ugly, very ugly.

There are so many issues with this comment (I appreciate it though, wish we could have a full conversation about this). a) If you'd do some research you'd see that "100y ago" actually was often times better b) Getting off this planet? To where? Colonize Mars? To do what exactly? The category to that jeopardy answer is: Things that won't happen for 200

that's literally "ad hominem" & what kind of answer you want to hear now? a) yes I wish too b) lucky me ? in either case it doesn't provide any good points to a solution

Not in public, otherwise everybody will start doing it, more and more do already

Nonsense, you can comfortable and well live with <10k/y in Vienna, Prague and other big cities, in the countryside even less.

I am not even that frugal, I live reasonable, but I spend lot of money on sport equipment, obviously I am not driving a Maserati or live in a Villa with pool, but neither do I live like a monk or live in hostel dorms, my luxury is that a) I don't have to work b) if I work I do what I enjoy and as many hours as I wish (which is probably the best of it) c) I can go wherever I want whenever I want.

I live with 500-700Eur/month since multiple years and I live a life of luxury compared to most others (and with that I mean my friends from Western Europe) and that includes traveling. So that'd be about 25-30 years which I'd call enough for retirement. Don't forget: it's not like you'll never work again...honestly who wants to not work the next 30 years? there will always be some small jobs or part time projects which will produce some sort of income, even if not monetary

US numbers are funny, I could easily retire with 200k in most places of the world, including Europe. Gotta get me a US salary job I guess.

Mastodon

1200 core k8s cluster + 1.5PB ceph (shared nodes to some degree) no issues with persistent disks etc, only "annoying" thing is to figure out RBAC initially

you just use a storagecontroller, then its no work whatsoever, ceph does the rest

What kind of noob "data consultant" must you be if you didn't know years ago you can opt-out of most of the google stuff? Google allows to deactivate/delete (we dont know if they do but at least its offered) most of the stuff he wrote about. Facebook is its own story, but then again..his own fault for using and pushing data up there

as always way too late

the people with the tinfoil hats predicted all this in the 90s but nobody was listening (except "THEM")

and this kids is why you a) don't use Facebook apps and b) don't use your real name on FB (or really anywhere if not absolutely necessary)

That's hardly news, nor surprising given its done systematically on purpose. Imagine people would be aware of how they are being ripped off by the financial systems...that'd be bad. There is a reason why finance basics or general life skills are not taught in schools (no matter if US or EU). Sure you maybe learn how to calculate interest but that's probably about it.

I'd start with this video to get an overview of all the topics and areas that mathematics entails (some might be unknown to you) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OmJ-4B-mS-Y . Then you go ahead and research a bit what sounds interesting to you and then you might google that topic and add "foundations" to that google search. It's just that most school/university math is heavily focused on analysis and algebra but there is so much more!

they are outraged because they all initially signed up to "make the world a better place" and obviously you do that by working for a megacorp which parks their 30 billion $ offshore cash on Bermuda

this!

But that is not only about gender, discrimination is everywhere...male as female suffer from that

because women in India dont have equality of opportunity? so not many get higher education and those who do probably go into tech or some high paying jobs and/or leave the country alltogether

yes, fixed, actually kindergartners was autosuggested by Firefox autocorrect

Maybe my English is off there, I meant that there should be no restrictions based on gender for jobs/studies etc. I think you get my point. Everybody should have the same options to choose from

For the same reason why there are more female kindergarten teachers than male ones. Equal distribution of gender across jobs is nonsense, equal opportunity is welcome though (see Scandinavian countries)

time to invest into some diabetes meds pharma stocks

Way too expensive (those are 4 Star Hotel prices, at least for Bali and Tokyo)...might as well just stay in a hotel? The only advantage maybe is you meet fellow nomads but one can do that anyway.

Same, people always ask me why I do this to myself but I don't see it just as a job, more like part of my life and I kind of enjoy it and can't do without, albeit I must admit I am a workaholic and not everything out of this is positive.

I see lot of IRC channels move to Slack and I don't get it, Kubernetes being one of them. Honestly why? I don't mind Slack for a small team but not for a channel with a few thousand user, it's a mess. Furthermore, maybe it's somehow because of my anti-ad addons but slack is generally slow and laggy for me. Takes quite a while to open the channel, lot of features don't work under Firefox.

a neutral question (honest question): Isen't the best part of a race show the sounds? I honestly don't know how a race sounds with electric cars but I imagine it to be quite different.
