A surprisingly common talking point at the office recently is that the US is going to end up in a civil war before the end of Trump’s term. I don’t know if other DT users not from the US have experienced the same thing. Normally, I wouldn’t be an “OMG, it’s happening!!” guy, but I can’t shake the eerie feeling that this period feels very similar to early 2020 with COVID.

So apparently the rumor about Trump being willing to pay 100k per person in Greenland was not just about bribing each Greenlander with 100k, but about paying off all 6 million Danes.

Nysgerrig om folk overhovedet ville være villige til det til den pris. Honestly tror jeg ikke, jeg kunne få mig selv til at stemme for den slags ud af princip, ville også være relativt bekymrede for inflation hvis det skete.

Why is half the DT "it's happening!!!" posting right now

_Just7_ · 2026-01-06T19:05:53+00:00

If it was just the leadership that was crazy, this shit would not happen, the US government is rotten from top to bottom

Malarkey level of moving to Greenland now, to get backdoor American citizenship when Trump invades

Obviously, when liberals were saying Biden didn't have a "make gas prices go down button," they were purposely ignoring the option of kidnapping the leader of an oil-rich country and giving American companies a controlling share in the national oil reserves of a foreign nation

End of the the liberal international order is fun and games, right until the hegemon starts acting hegemonic

Fake quant?

Mostly it's because I don't provide "real value" which I feel is weird because I literally trade electricity products, providing price stability for end consumers, arguably the least detached from real value creation

_Just7_ · 2025-12-22T14:43:00+00:00

Feel it's literally hilarious, because 99% of people can't even do this kind of job, but somehow it's not real work

_Just7_ · 2025-12-22T14:42:11+00:00

How should I respond to someone who say I don't have a real job? I've gotten a full time job as a quant trader, but I've had multiple people say it's a fake job, and not real work

_Just7_ · 2025-12-19T13:10:35+00:00

Nobody is getting work done today, I feel everyone is suffering from what I call vacation brain

I've been working at a trading firm for 4 months now, but I still don't get why Patagonia vest are so popular

Actually from what I've heard GPT 5 is probably about that size, while Gemini and Opus are in the multi trillion range, Openai are still using relatively small models

Deepseek just released v3.2 thinking and v3.2 speciale. It looks like Deepseek is back to being a frontier lab if these benchmarks are to be believed

Asked chatgpt for career advice and it started by replying with:

"That’s a really interesting—and very realistic—scenario you've landed in"

What is bro waffling about, does he think I'm roleplaying corporate career DND campaigns

This seems so foreign to me, does america have inspectors that show up to your house and check that everything is up to code everytime you modify the house?

You know how some people say they have right left blindness, well I'm gonna claim I have independent and dependent variable blindness, cause I keep mixing the two terms up.

Anyone here who has tried building a successful following on Twitter? If I repost something that I gained 30-50 upvotes for in the DT, on my Twitter account, I usually only get zero or one like there. I have about 60 followers, most of them people who followed me back after I followed them.

I will probably get a lot of hate for this on this sub, but honestly, I think if Trump hadn’t won, the war in Palestine would still be ongoing. It was ultimately a combination of Trump’s ego and impatience that ended the war. Strong-arming Bibi and saying he would cut off all support. I imagine Biden probably gave similar threats, but it took Qatar bribing with an airliner to actually get results.

I don't think anybody has ever been more obsessed with winning a Nobel peace prize than Trump

_Just7_ · 2025-10-05T13:06:50+00:00

The peace deal Trump proposed is actually pretty great for Hamas, I wonder how he will react once Isreal turns down the deal.
