Initiate human mating ritual if appropriate

There's a ton of research on the health benefits of long-term fasting. I do have to say I felt great afterward.

Four day fast. Only water with some salts added to replenish electrolytes. I did two three-day fasts a long time ago and it a rough time starting day two. The electrolytes made all the difference.

Which is why I'm on SN and not X.

Honey badger don't care. Musk is the honey badger. He does and says what he wants to, because he doesn't need to care what anyone thinks of him. Good for him.

The interwebs don't reward nuance.

Thanks!

Is there an alternative to Bloomberg for ordinary people who don't want to spend a fortune?

A somewhat related question... the first chart you provide... Is that from a Bloomberg terminal?

Do the majority of people on Guam want independence? Are there any polls with hard numbers?

What about keeping territories but putting them behind a paywall. As the internet becomes shittier by the day, I would be willing to shell out sats for access to a high quality knowledge base on a variety of topics.

I feel like I'm the only person who is not excited by AI.

I'd explain that some people are less fortunate and there is a moral obligation to help them. Doesn't have to be by giving money, could be a job, or food, etc. I'd also explain that this moral obligation doesn't grant the dude a corresponding right to my money, and that believing otherwise is a slippery slope to communism.

I come to stacker news to escape the enshittified web, but I think the beautiful thing about SN is that instead of hard rules, people vote with their sats. On the other hand, the current cost of posting probably isn't high enough to prevent enshittification here if someone were really determined to ruin SN.

Americans used to save money. Fiat provides perverse incentives.

"Not taking out as much debt as possible when rates were zero" - a very good point. I'm allergic to debt but yeah I should have done that.

Exactly. Bitcoin's decentralized and immutable nature is very useful for money but not for real estate, stocks etc because your need for protection of property rights over the latter is much greater than with bitcoin, which means you're going to be subject to some sort of legal system.

It's all you need.

I haven't been to a bookstore in years but I used to enjoy them a lot. I read a while back that BN got a new CEO who really gets it and turned the place around.
