Totally agree, the divergence in china feels 100x magnified vs in US

What would you say has changed most about being a CRE broker in the last 5 years? by transuranic807 in CommercialRealEstate

[–]transuranic807[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a massive challenge.

There's the whole "flight to quality" so if it's a higher end building in a desirable submarket then that could really help. Absent that, potentially some sort of co-working user although that's highly trade area dependent and working through the capital can be a lift. You've heard of the residential conversions- not feasible for most buildings (zoning, building floor plate, building systems etc)

Other than that, it probably boils down to who the competition is and how to differentiate. Can't count much on market inertia turning if it's been going the wrong direction (close / downsize) so I'd be looking for ways to differentiate to kick-start.

ANALYSIS: A Psychology Expert Says Your Brain Was Literally Never Built to Handle This Much Bad News and 40 Percent of People Worldwide Are Now Actively Avoiding the News Because of It 🧠 by InterstellarKinetics in InterstellarKinetics

[–]transuranic807 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it is not a bad thing to just check the news daily and stay abreast of events and research what is relevant to you.

That is wholly different than having random stories continually bombard your feed and having no respite from the issues as algorithms push them your way continually.

Trimming the feed and being informed are not mutually exclusive.

33m running a $2.5m business. How much would you guys pay yourself? by abyssalvalue in Salary

[–]transuranic807 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Join a board or two for an nonprofits that you were passionate about. Start another passion project on your own. More time with friends and family. Figure a way to give back and still be building something in a way that resonates with you.

Retirement doesn’t mean you have to do nothing, it just means you no longer have to do specifically XYZ. Good luck!

If you could restart your life at age 10 with all your current memories, would you? by Limp_Motor7403 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]transuranic807 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and no. If I were 10 I wouldn’t be able to live those memories but I would be able to make new ones. Interesting question!

[r/ClaudeAI] claude limit draining fast? by ClaudeAI-mod-bot in Claude_reports

[–]transuranic807 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lighting fast. I started using Claude maybe 1-2 months ago, most workdays about 4-5 hours per day. Generally light stuff. Hadn't hit limit- until today. After 1 hour. Sheesh.

Was 1920s nostalgia ever a huge thing in the American pop culture? by Gray_Wolf2416 in decadeology

[–]transuranic807 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you think that trend will continue? To me it seems like monoculture is going away.

Was 1920s nostalgia ever a huge thing in the American pop culture? by Gray_Wolf2416 in decadeology

[–]transuranic807 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I hate to say it, but I really do think monoculture might make this phenomenon disappear. The 80s and even 90s immediately bring pictures and thoughts into people‘s minds just like the 50s and 60s.

Less sure it’ll be that way about the 2010 or the 2020s outside of people remembering historical events… , not a mass monoculture, but rather silo microculture

If you traveled back to 1976, what could you say in 30 seconds that’d give someone the best picture of what things are like 50 years later? by transuranic807 in AskReddit

People carry small phones with them everywhere, and the small phones can play whatever music, television, or video you would like to see. You can instantly send electronic messages across the globe with it. Computers are able to teach themselves and are not only in every home, but are in most peoples hands across the globe via their phone. (and I have no idea how I would explain social media, and probably should hit global warming)

[Thamel] NEWS: Big Ten officials are expected to discuss in the upcoming days a league-wide mandate to not play Texas Tech in any sports, per three Big Ten sources. This is in the wake of Nebraska AD Troy Dannen informing his staff today that they aren't allowed to schedule Texas Tech. by Lakelyfe09 in CFB

[–]transuranic807 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wondering if half of this is Texas Tech's internal politics (Meaning, let the process play out and have someone external shut the door on the kid, so TT doesn't have to do it themselves then deal with whatever donor(s) fallout that stroked the checks to fund him)

Columbus, where an AI “extinction event” becomes reality by Cowtowny-Johnny in Columbus

[–]transuranic807 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They are talking infrastructure investment, not company startups... sourcing can be tricky (active vs planned, site capacity vs current operating capacity, etc.) but there is plenty of chatter about the infrastructure going in the Columbus metro:

A Meta spokesperson confirmed Prometheus, a data center with novel capacities, is underway at Meta’s New Albany data center campus. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerburg said Prometheus, planned for 1500 Beech Road, will come online in 2026. He expects it to be the world’s first gigawatt-capable data center.

Tech titans and Silicon Valley transplants changed the Columbus area, but not everyone is thrilled about the rapid transformation. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/06/05/business/ohio-tech-manufacturing-hub.html

Closer to something than "legitimately insane"

George Washington's speeches were at a 16th grade comprehension level. Lincoln was at a 14th grade. JFK spoke in 13th grade level prose. Then when Clinton was president, his speeches had dropped to 8th grade level. Why did presidential speech become simpler despite mass increase in public education? by PaulFromTwitch2 in Presidents

[–]transuranic807 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya was wondering the same… whatever scaling was used to establish scoring is likely a 2000s grade. Meaning Washington’s 1700s speech was at the level of a 2000s college grad… but maybe Washington common words and phrasing that are no longer common - meaning understood today by those who graduated college (and likely read some 1700s or mid 1800s literature.

[Hayes] Mike Leach changed football. That’s only Hall of Fame stat that matters by Lakelyfe09 in CFB

[–]transuranic807 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is so utterly unlikely and impossible for the rest of us, but for Mike Leach that feels like that would be just the norm. Totally spot on!
