Yeah the very top post on hot right now has 9 comments lmao.

There is no one here. I mean I love the platform and the apps. I don’t go to Reddit anymore on my phone. But there’s no one here.

If I don’t go to Reddit at least once per day I’m going to miss news and events that are important to me.

I think in-person is better for culture and team building. That mindset works when workers stay at a job their whole career.

It used to be that you could stay at one job your whole career and be fine. That hasn’t been the case for decades now though. Workers started getting treated like they were expendable cogs in the machine, and so now workers treat employers the same way. Switching jobs is the best way to be successful and make more money.

So employers want it both ways. They want to treat employees poorly and still expect a good team culture to form to retain workers. They have to pick one.

So what you’re saying is spez will be richer than 80% of people instead of 90%

What I’ve heard is that it prevents “tyranny of the majority”, whereby the majority would just get their way 100% of the time.

I know that sounds like exactly what should happen, but I think the thought is that sometimes the majority does not vote in the country’s best interest.

As an exaggerated example, say there is some budget concern that would allocate all money to urban business and zero to rural. Depriving rural business like farms of this funding would cripple the country’s food reserves. But the majority live in urban environments, so they’d vote selfishly and fuck up the country. So rural voters are given more power to balance it out.

Now in my opinion - I don’t care about any of that. And I think if the majority votes one way and fucks up the country, so be it. Gotta learn to vote in the country’s interest and not your own.

Yeah I immediately thought of being in school reading about Washington crossing the Delaware and how future generations will read about dark Brandon memes.

Hey the good news is after you beat it like 5 times it becomes way way easier.

Took me in the 30s to beat it once but now it is rare for me to not beat it.

Yeah I built a few react apps that made it to production about 7 years ago.

Now the react syntax I used back then is basically a dead language.
