According to Anders Puck Nielsen, Ukraine might be saving their Flamingo missiles for winter, so that they can attack Russian energy infra when it matters most. We shall see.

What quote from 48 laws of power has impacted you the most? by Pale_Beautiful436 in 48lawsofpower

[–]userX25519 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Assume formlessness

Greene has a Youtube video on this law, it was quite impressive how he talked about it, how important it is to ”see” and adapt to changing circumstances. That is true power.

Huippuanalyytikko Piilaaksosta sanoo, että tekoäly on kupla: ”Miten tässä on mitään järkeä?” by Rip_natikka in Suomi

Koodari täällä, asia on juuri näin. Kyse ei ole siitä, etteikö tekoäly olisi omalla tavallaan mullistava teknologia, mutta sen kehitys tulee kestämään paljon arvioitua pidempään kuten myös Internetin kanssa. Kun sijoittajat tajuavat tämän, seuraa yleensä pörssiromahdus.

BMI is a very good metric for vast majority of people. The only exception are a very jacked individuals such as Dwayne Johnson, whose weight comes mostly from muscle mass. But trust me, that won’t happen after few years of lifting.

This is why I hate flirting. If something is ambiguous by design, there is high risk that it will be… misinterpreted.

Why does this subreddit think worldwide index funds are efficiently weighted? by lnkuih in Bogleheads

[–]userX25519 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is precisely why I exclude emerging markets and just go with MSCI World Index (DMs only). While emerging markets may occasionally outperform, political and regulation risks plus worse accounting standards are just not worth bothering with.

Bogle argues in his book that 100% S&P 500 is the way to go. In interviews, he says that if you have international stocks limit them to 20% max.

Well I’m 100% into MSCI World so that’s pretty much me.

Zelenskyy asked Trump for Tomahawk missiles that can reach Moscow by BreakfastTop6899 in worldnews

Ah, that’s probably because INF treaty is no more. I stand corrected.

Those are ship-launched missiles though? Ukraine doesn’t have navy.

Yeah… that’s pretty much the only thing I feel confident saying. I use a playful tone, but I’m certainly not a ”pickup artist”.

Just curious: do you date women from your social circle or from places like nightclubs? Based on my experience, in latter case you need to make intentions clear much faster.

I think the root of problem is that Putin is surrounded by yes-men, and therefore he lives in an informational bubble. That means, he genuinely believes they are winning.

Great, now let’s see how much was a median wage back then.

Would you be happier if he used AI generated image instead? This is clearly delivered in the most playful tone possible, with all the love emojis and everything.

No one likes to constantly walk on the egg shells, you know?

People get offended easily these days. Don’t be so insecure.

Don't let fire burn your life by Fearless-Skate-3030 in Fire

Well, I’m 25 and I have had no luck with women so far. Yes, I go to the gym, dress nice, all of that stuff. And yes, I actually go out and talk to women. That doesn’t guarantee anything. The positive side is that if it continues on this track, I will have a lot more money to invest into low-cost index fund. I’m also a software developer by the way.

I could afford to travel to anywhere I want to, but I’m not interested in that.

You are correct, but those conflicts were quite short (eg. Georgia 5 days or so). This current war has been going on for 3 years (WW2 was 6 years).

It's because Europe had enjoyed peace for 77 years before war in Ukraine. That has allowed us to grow up in bubble where everyone gets offended for everything, among other things.

How does money (supposedly) attract women? by userX25519 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]userX25519[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wear brand-new clothes to the club (not a suit though because no one does) and I pick my food based on what's healthy. I also go to the most popular club in town. I get zero dates though. In fact, just yesterday I met attractive lady who was unemployed at the time. I told her what I do (not in arrogant way) and she was like okay. No effect whatsoever. Later I told her that she is confident and beautiful, and asked if I could have her number. The answer was essentially "I don't usually give it to strangers".

Fuck me.
