Everyone is not the same. Imagine that.
It is really why I am tired of this whole format of talking to people.

I wish someone would build a site that we share chatGPT4 outputs like the above.

I can't remember the last time I have actually learned something from a human on a message board like this compared to chatGPT4.

Talking to people like this is just 100% waste of time.

It is obviously a nonsense number for headlines IMO.

The entire Abu Dhabi Investment Authority sovereign wealth fund isn't even 1 trillion.

7 belt and road initiatives?

The simple explanation is that our media is mind numbing trash that has little to do with reality other than we wouldn't be talking about this if it wasn't for the fake 7 trillion dollar number.

It is basically like electric guitar vs classical guitar though.

Nylon has a very different touch and tension than steel.

You could start a student on electric or acoustic guitar that wants to learn classical guitar by why would you just not get them a classical guitar instead?

Same thing with piano to me. If you want to eventually learn to play some Chopin there is no reason you would not start with weighted keys.

The modern piano was also not even popular until the late 1700s.

Anyone who has studied economics has to know our current state of knowledge on the subject is a complete farce.
