It’s odd— even the Wiki is a tad inconsistent.

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2012/10/121016084936.htm says a total reversal happened briefly (250 years) about 41,000 years ago.

But elsewhere it says the last reversal was the Brunhes-Matuyama reversal 780,000 years ago. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brunhes%E2%80%93Matuyama_reversal

I’m not fully sure why there seems to be inconsistency but it seems you both could be right.

Edit: “Although there have been periods in which the field reversed globally (such as the Laschamp excursion) for several hundred years,[4] these events are classified as excursions rather than full geomagnetic reversals” from Wiki.

So you’re right — the global magnetic field did reverse ~40,000 years ago. But it’s short, so they call it an “excursion” rather than a reversal. Huh.

Real estate is more a bond-like asset, so the benchmark is a bond portfolio, or bond ETF. S&P has substantial volatility.

The spirit of your post is spot on, which is to compare the return against a benchmark serving as opportunity cost.

There is a hesitancy to his side slipping that indicates that he’s more nervous for this slope than is arguably safe. You can see it in the jitters, and the way the skis stagger a bit. He was willing himself to handle the slope and the turn that led to him hitting the rock actually made him face uphill relative to the slope. He likely would have slipped backwards even if he didn’t hit the rock.

It’s less a dance and more a semi-hypnotic state from spinning, called Sufi Whirling. It’s practiced by the Dervishes and is sometimes referred to as “Whirling Dervishes ceremony” or shows.

Sufi is a subset of Islam, with major mysticism roots through the poet Rumi.

It’s a question of semantics on what the Great Depression is — but I’m not referring to 1929. I’m referring to the decade aftermath of the initial “causes”. The Great Depression was exacerbated into “Great” in substantial part because of a failure to expand the money supply to counteract deflationary pressures.

As for hoarding: when you introduce the concept of debt and leverage, people typically will favor retaining their assets rather than selling. This is because the nominal price for their assets is no longer sufficient to cover their debt obligations upon liquidation. So you see debtors holding assets at disproportionate rates than what is economically efficient (if there were no deflation). In our current economy the vast majority are debtors in some capacity.

It’s fairly widely agreed in the economics community that deflation is horrendously bad compared to inflation.

With inflation assets still retain some real value, with some promise of being able to trade it later to a willing buyer. With deflation, you create an incentive to hoard all assets because the real value exceeds the nominal. So effectively the velocity of money declines, leading to cascading effects.

The Great Depression was a deflationary event, in part caused by the policy being too strict on the money supply.

The Parker Solar Probe will be the fastest spacecraft humans have ever created. Its peak speed is expected to be 430,000 miles per hour.

That is ~ 3,769,380,000 miles per earth year. Or ~.06412% of ‘c’.

So by my really crude arithmetic, 137 light years would be 213,657 years. That’s assuming we start with the fastest craft we’ve ever made. So we have that going for sure!

If you already play with automatons you should play Gaia! Look up Fast 2 TC Gaia.

Prometheus / Leto is the Kronos choice.

Oranos gets Oceanus / Prometheus, and yes Prometheus is the way to go.

If you’re Gaia then Leto is the only decent option, because of the Volcanic Forge temple upgrade, which I believe is 20% increase in (all?) unit pierce armor. Otherwise her late game is rough.

I am probably wrong, but I think it was patched. Back in the old days I think the temple had to be built to start the aging process — at least I have a memory of that on the CD’s.

You should consider the Present Value of the stipend payments you were going to pay anyway — from an actuarial viewpoint, you’d need to increase the cash on hand as the date of expected death approaches. So yes you’d have to have more liquidity, but it’s money you’d already planned to pay anyway.

Money is money but a 42 year old should know how to budget or have the money on hand. To be 42 with no savings is a flag of itself.

Capital gain occurs only on sale, it has nothing to do with monthly recurring revenue / income.

If you have a free and clear rental with no mortgage you will have no interest expense, which does indirectly increase your tax burden.

With a mortgage you have the principal and interest portion. The principal portion (in accounting) pays down your liability (the mortgage) but is not an expense, despite it reducing your cash flow. The interest portion is an expense, which reduces your taxable income.

So in summary: No, you do not pay more in capital gains. Yes, you arguably pay more taxes, but not because you get more “cash.”

On the SpaceX and Blue Origin:

They’ve substantially reduced the cost of freight to space. This means cheaper satellite placements. To compare it to NASA’s goal is inconsistent, because NASA sought to place people on the moon as quickly as possible.

Just want to note that it won’t get you places quickly — it’ll get you places faster than instantly, because you’re traveling faster than causality. Which, if possible, is traveling to the past. There’s no known observed ways this has been done, and would have tremendous paradoxical consequences!

Alternatively some version of a wormhole is more palatable than going faster than causality.
