Karma is a pretty typical human way of rationalizing all the injustice we see in the world. It's difficult to accept that life is, in fact, unfair

I mean spss and stata are Rstudio+R alternatives

Cool! Every once in a while, I open the browser and check what's going on in the gemini://midnight.pub

Krita. I had a uni licence for Photoshop for years, even took a Photoshop course but still kept using Krita. It has an intuitive UI and all the tools I'll ever need.

RStudio+R is way better than any of its proprietary alternatives.

Blender. I'm no 3D modling expert but it does everything I as a hobbyist want to do with it and so much more. Nowadays, the UI is pretty decent, too.

Finally, the Lagrange browser is really good. The gemini protocol is kinda niche though, but if you're interested it's unreasonably pretty, well optimized and has a great UX. The guy who maintains it really puts his heart and soul into it.

Business writing is like the one thing LMMs have actually made useless

You're basically saying AI can't be used in any other way than it's being used right now. I think you are the one who's taking the current state of things as inevitable and inescapable.

Your belief is correct

I don't think you quite understand what I mean. You can't extrapolate from the last 3 years. What you can extrapolate from is longer periods of time, where we occasionally see assets going generally down for some time. So you have maybe 90% chance of your stock portfolio going up in the next 5 or 10 years, and 10% chance of it going down (rough numbers but the point holds).

So you can end up in a situation where you lose money, but it's unlikely. If you are very risk averse, you would prefer a 0% increase over these odds.
