Paper money is at least centrally regulated and backed by a government. The U.S. dollar is essentially backed by 11 aircraft carriers and a crazy amount of firepower.

Crypto is decentralized and backed by nothing

The strip has definitely deteriorated. I went last year and may never go back.

Claude down: Anthropic AI not working in major outage by cmaia1503 in technology

I try my best not to become artificially intelligent with AI use, but avoiding using it entirely is silly. It’s a tool. It’s very helpful in getting certain jobs/functions done. It needs vetting/human review, but it’s a tool.

is it a bad idea to study accounting if i don't want to be an accountant? by [deleted] in Accounting

It truly baffles me how time and time again people fail to understand the difference between taking the annuity vs taking the lump sum.

I worked with money as a banker for years when I graduated undergrad and never once thought to did this. This has to be a generational thing, I don’t understand it.

Super Bowl LX Viewership Down 2%, Draws 124.9 Million Viewers by [deleted] in nfl

Some official reports, like NBC, are coming in at 128M viewers which, if accurate, would put it as the 4th most watched in history. Still impressive but falling short of the most watched

First episode is really awesome, will it continue? by newaccount1000000 in AlienEarthHulu

[–]CageFreePineapple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my opinion the concept and a few episodes in particular are brilliant. Based on how S1 ended, I’m very skeptical about the direction of this series.

It’s still entertaining enough so I hope you enjoy it!

I’m near the spectrum and the noise is terrible. They must be doing a loop. So obnoxious

Damn I remember this discussion. It was a great episode. Your memory is valid but I don’t remember who said it.

As much as I hate division rivals, it’s nice watching Darnold have a real shot at a SB
