Powell was recently quoted as saying "We understand better how little we understand about inflation.”
The authority and respect the last generation commands needs a real challenge. Substantive change and not just chanting “disrupt” while playing the same game.
Their figurative identities should not be sacrosanct.
Now they get to lose even more time being productive finding gigs.
Brenden Gregg leaves Netflix, weeks later its stock and reputation tank. They don’t think we know, but we do. There’s no reason to put our faith is people who are clearly more of the same rich grifters being propped up by collective belief. Believe something else.
The US is getting more fascist in observable ways. Suspension habeas corpus in GWs time, pepper spraying college students in 2008 for a seated protest in Cali, to no abortion rights, and the political snowflakes in both parties calling for each other’s heads, kids in cages and yet everyone tucks their chin and goes on, inequality and taxation without holistic demographic representation; SCOTUS Justices openly demanding the public just accept things it does not like.
Keep complaining about Russia and China, USians. Virtue signaling while actually operating as moral relativists is creating the culture you talk to be against in your own backyard.
Thoughts and prayers, gun owners.
Paraphrasing numerous gun owners quoted in the news; a little insecurity is something you’ll have to live with in a free country.
Everything dies. This simple minded confidence game we require each other play to validate usefulness is getting old.
You’re one of seven billion humans who will die, one of millions of programmers to pick from to prop up trade of Daddy Dollars.
You’re not sticking around either and cannot prove your contributions were truly more valuable than anyone else’s (models have been built to ascertain which human leadership traits and which technology make us more productive and all became too complex to understand).
Don’t blink though; keep pretending we’re onto something with folksy anecdotes, and nostalgia for past wins.
