Congratulations man!

Hell, I’m proud of you too.

Unions.

When I work in office settings I usually set pace based on what I need to accomplish, and use any extra time to do proper reviews of my work.

I try. I find myself even harsher on my mistakes and less proud of my accomplishments given current politics and policy keeps me busier than I’d prefer, but I try my best to see what I do in a more positive light.

Small steps.

Could say yea

It’s reality.

I have technically used them, however not by my own volition at all.

Spent two weeks getting comments from a colleague about my consistent driving habits, being a safe driver, etc.

I thought we just shared a portion of the route there. Turns out we didn’t lmao. That was a fun one.

Read alot, research well, and be honest about your own skills and understanding on a topic when talking with your friends, family, and strangers.

Look for, and even ocassionally try researching as an advocate of the opposing viewpoint.

Try your hand at creating your own as-close-to-the-truth sources of information for others. Could be anything from quick notes and topic basics, to full newsletters, reports, and expert statements.

All depends on the who, what, when, where, and how.

Are we talking muppet muppets? Or can we go all old fashioned?

If so my choice is Big Bird.

I can speak as someone who holds public office.

In my work as an appointed member of government, all our meetings are held fully accessible to the public. We technically can have have conversations about what our votes will be, or what we think etc. outside of the meetings, however those conversations cannot let anyone whether us or any member of the public, know how the votes will go before the meeting happens, and that can include the minutes prior. If it happens it can range in anything from fines to jailtime, of course and garunteed to be blacklisted from just about any public work in the future given violation of our Oath of Office.

Thus, technically any conversations or messages between the board, our liason, etc. relating to the work we do can be subpoena’d or FIA’d, or just outright requested by members of the public given relevance, but generally anything we do as private citizens should remain private like for anyone else.

It’s quite huge in many ways and smaller in others. Not enough studies have been done overall to determine the range of it’s affect, especially given the growing access to the wider internet and social media across a major portion of the human population, though significantly still segregated in the ways in which it’s accessible.

I can personally say for a fact that there is already growing social mobility relating to how it’s being used, as well as where policy is moving. This is where we will end up seeing the longer term trends given more are sociologically changing habits as well as better legal requirements, shifting policy reccomendations, and overall scientific recognition of affects.

I hope better in the long run, but definitely close to a net neutral given the way it’s moved overall, and a net negative in recent years.

Eh. Classic story of a street punk who turns his life around. Been done a million times.

Generally? Haiti.

What’s that?

<Huh?>

What’s that called?

Denali <Mountain>

I’m sorry?

Denali <Mountain> is what that’s called.

Ah. Of course, off you go.

Marks down Mount Denali. Excellent.

[Joke from a bit farther up north than us, language is different but the joke’s the exact same.]

For the good stuff ? Always buy thrift, long as you know how to clean the absolute hell out of them properly, I find it’s a worthwhile venture.

Well wealth wealth usually doesnt show show, even moderately wealthy households don’t have much worn on them that would make them targets.

Like that other guy said, as far as my memory goes as to the reality, and mathematical theory, the method is vastly more inefficient in just transmitting power. Material science is generally a better area of research given everything.

Oh and the whole this method of transmission of power is entirely incompatible with our modern world thing plays a part why its not much considered anymore. As far as I know of course.

Lol sorry for taking so long, night classes are totally kicking my ass.

I love the way you put the question, to give you a simple answer, no.

The closest I could say that would fit the bill would be the general assumption that if one person has one thing, another person has another thing, there should be some measurable mutual demand in most cases that will allow for a mutual agreement as to make a trade.

Outside of that, pretty much the entirety of the field is based on various assumptions that compound one another, or build upon earlier assumptions to try and make better theories as to how the markets function, or how to use past and current data to create better predictions of the future markets. While less so do now, many would dedicate their time towards better study and understanding as to past market conditions as well.
