if everything has doubled in price, then my stock portfolio doubling in value means it hasn't actually gained any value in real terms

Aw that's too bad. There there lil guy.

I can see the appeal, but I suppose I don't think about techbros that much so that's not a metric I'm evaluating things on

I didn't feel like busting out the jargon but yeah it smacks a bit of vulgar producerism.

Why trouble yourself with the ramblings of these fools?

I'm pretty sure none of these are actually "bullshit jobs" as defined by Graeber, they just do things that Hexbear culture doesn't like.

Also, plenty of very real R&D & manufacturing jobs couldn't be described in 3 words without being needlessly vague or reductive. There is in fact complexity in a modern industrial economy.

Probably the noise.

Uhhhhh wow wish I knew this earlier.

A coworker of mine very frequently will say something indirectly then follow his extremely obvious implication with "you see what I'm getting at?" It's so annoying, bro just say what you mean. They're never clever and don't add anything so he's just making things take longer and demanding a response.

Inquiring minds want to know!
