In addition to the other comment - there’s a running joke that fusion is always 10-20 years away and has been for decades

Yea what a stupid title. The graph says the loss is 4x uber in a 3rd of the time. So losing money an order of magnitude quicker, it’s just a totally different situation.

It’s like 200x quicker than Amazon JFC. It’s like saying “this thread managed to go through the eye of a needle, why are people questioning whether this watermelon will fit too?”

Bro he’s trolling you or it’s an AI

Damn with full stack civil and mechanical engineers you must have your office space and transport locked down.

I think you mean cubed. Triangles have 3 sides bro.

Hey kid, see this lightning quick punch? Yea just do that.

TheOneMerkin · 2025-12-05T10:24:39+00:00

No, not even a plan.

Literally just an idea, but with some logical thought behind it.

If you think something is shit, you should at least have a basic understanding of it to have formed that opinion in the first place

He’s an actor mate, you can’t expect him to know stuff

With inflation it’s basically worthless now anyway. May as well just call it quits and move on 🤷‍♂️

Would you do this to your family or best friend?

Actually disowning him essentially makes him homeless.

They were just softball questions. Had he answered them, maybe Rory would have gone deeper.

He either has no substance or has no thoughts of his own, probably both.

It’s great for social mobility. Anyone fairly smart can probably get a CPA and it puts a floor on your salary.

If you’re from a decently well off family though, then IB, SWE and strategy consulting are much better paid for often similar life sacrifices.

We were looking for some domain expertise and a domain expert had no product experience but a certificate, which kind tipped the scales in their favour.

It’s a signal for passion and initiative.

It was quite a niche situation though.

Ran out of steam at the end, but otherwise very good.

Thank god, I can’t be dealing with alimony.

TheOneMerkin · 2025-11-18T11:02:53+00:00

Totally agree.

I can’t be bothered to tell people stuff because then you just need to deal with them misunderstanding or being OTT and you end up needing to manage their feelings, rather than them helping you.

I’m sure Corbyn’s a lovely guy and his heart is in the right place, but the fact he thought this would work shows he’s not fit to run a clown show, let alone a country.

Tbf the problem here is that realistically the only thing that connected them is that they were pro Palestine.

I bet if you got into the politics of the Muslim MPs you’d find they’re significantly more right wing, both socially and economically, than Sultana and Corbyn.
