There are also researchs that says that money absolutly does increase well being: https://www.pnas.org/content/118/4/e2016976118
But i would agree with you that people usually over estimate how big of a difference it makes.
But obviously, it is only one variable, and you absolutly can be unhappy with money or happy with a lower income.
However i think that what is worst than being poor, is a rich becomming poor, since he was used to the perks of being rich. Humans often don't "miss" stuff they never had or never knew they needed. 200 years ago nobody was "sad" not to have electricity and plenty of people lived happy lives, but today we get quite frustrated even just 1 day whitout it.
yes not earth shattering stuff but def agree with this.

hiems always seems to make things about me which in part I should enjoy because I have a history of making things about me but hiems lay off the psychiatry. I also think it's funny that hiems is going after ADZ, joey, and myself when he is basically a railtard that sloshes about at micro stakes online.
dude just linking a dumb study by some god damn OMG PHD is the most annoying thing ever.
These dumb studies are what ppl like Stroggoz blindly follow because they are supposed to be SMARTZ ... BUT what actually is happening is there are alot of dumb ass people with 0 common sense pencil pushing also spreading propaganda depending on which type of person (usually communist) supports the academic department.
Obv money isn't everything and maybe you are taking some stuff out of context. I'm not going to do a "STUDY WAR" and just link random shit like "STUDIES SHOW WINNIng the Lotto isnt as much as a high as it is losing 500k networth" or something. That's not really my style and I think its dumb. Yes I value money more than the average person but I think I am reasonable.
There's some merit to your position because recently a study came out arguing that most scientific experiments can't even be replicated.
There's zero truth to how you think universities are run. In truth they are increasingly dumbing down courses and offering meaningless degrees to generate more enrollment which in turn generates profit. They have large beurocracies filled with meaningless jobs that outnumber academic staff, quite similar to corporations. Still they are great to work in because of the high level of freedom. In that regard they are quite socialist. There is also a lot defunding of the pure sciences in favour of applied ones that generate profit for industry. Academics are too busy working to care about communism. Their positions are very competitive and take a long time to get. There's too much sunk costs to risk their job over radical politics. The exceptions are the ones presented in the far right media.
I don't learn from reading, I learn from questioning things. That's how anyone learns in anything. Reading studies is a consequence of questioning claims. So is going out and asking academics about how universities work. Learning to figure out which questions are interesting and which arnt is the most important skill of any learned person imo

What kind of life experience could a sheltered kid like you have? You've never crawled out of mommy's skirt, you take no risks whatsoever, still playing low stakes in poker despite having 300k+ and staying at home with few bills to pay. Only risks you take are maybe with prostitutes and STDs. You've never had to sacrifice for anyone else, never had a relationship, never had to seriously worry about survival or came close to dying. Your life experience amounts to having had the life of the most regular, cookie-cutter college-kid-turned-corporate-drone out there. You're left with an overinflated ego and have such deep insecurities from a life unlived that you need to troll and bully people online to find relief from your pathetic condition.
fuck I should just sell some of my Pokemon cards, if no one stakes that is what I will have to do - lostaccount

they are socialist because of the high degree of freedom, i can't get over that one, A+
universities pay tens of thousands in fees for single speeches by CRT grifters
they can't shell out $6k to organize an event with former VP of the US
professorial political leaning is overwhelmingly left
many positions require diversity statements
the only correct statement Stroggoz was they don't want to risk their jobs over radical politics, your problem is normalizing your gauge, in the academy right wing is radical

There has to be a distinction between China and the West? It's not like we could open-source Palantir software. The point is we want to be ahead of the curve in everything but specifically the AI battle. It is inevitable.
I feel like mutual aid and direct action works but does it scale?
all monopolies are scary, the biggest monopolies are the state, the crazy shit the US and China do to the world is by far worse than anything fucking microsoft could do.
It's pretty bizarre to say "crazy scary monopolist USA state is worse than any evil corporation out there" while at the same time praising police states that defend said monopoly.

Not surprised about Space X considering all their products are innovations only, meaning they burn a lot of cash on failures. And it's not the sort of innovations that will bring them insane amount of money when done right.
Guy in the video tilts me about the 'worth' of Musk. Nobody is worth that much since the second they start selling their assets (especially shares) is the second the price is going to flatten. I heavily doubt there is enough liquidity in the market for Musk to be able to even sell all of his Tesla shares. I'm sure you know how unrealistic networth is and is basically the OG of clickbaits @ Forbes
Also Musk has been giving unrealistic deadlines for more than a decade now, pretty much everyone knows that they should add 2-3 years the least when he announces anything.
He's also been known to be a shitty manager, basically the same as Jobs during his worst times.

Rapist is sent to prison:
Me - nice
Loco- aha! you support the police state

lol the rule of law doesn't have anything to do with supporting the state, I'm glad when a murderer, a rapist or a thief is sent to prison.
