I mean, as a bald man I no longer need to answer the question “does the carpet match the drapes?”. Solving problems, the best way.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do billionaires have most of their income taxed as ordinary income or capital gains?English
42·9 days agoNew loans pay off the old loans. The cycle repeats. Seriously, if you zoomed out and looked, the billionaires and some upper 9 figure millionaires are in debt against their assets which clears on death. But the debt itself is low interest, and the assets are appreciating faster. Its one reason they say “hit a million and never worry about money”, though I think that number is like 5mil now.
You never actually spend your money…
Buy, Borrow, Die!
You know you can just compost it, no need to eat something bad for you.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Op doesn't have time for interviewsEnglish
5·13 days agoI’ve walked out of interviews that had these popular puzzle questions in the 00s. The company you’re interviewing for is not testing you for your job, it wants a corporate drone that is ok with bureaucracy and can navigate the red tape they’ve put in place.
Really a waste of time, but if I run into this at my age now I ask if they can tell me how their company is making something for the betterment of human kind.
Think of it like pay per view tv. We subscribe to the MadMax channel and watch as they tear themselves apart. Are You NOT ENTERTAINED!?!?
Lmfao. No
Meh. I like to cook and it’s far better than the uber eats slop that I need to reheat that I just spent $35 plus tip on which would have cost me $14 to just eat at the restaurant but I wanted the free fries and bogo burger when I spent $30.

Capitalism… At some point people need to realize they are working to make others richer. From the products you buy to the products your company makes, just stuff designed to break and not worth spending on. Even new houses today have a shortened life. Anyone buy one recently and see the contract term estimated life of the house is about 60years?!? Yep folks, the house you’re dropping 500k+ on it expected to last about 60 years.
This might be a left vs right comic, but the issue doesn’t matter in the end because capitalism is going to fuck us all over.

There’s a version of the bible they’ve been pushing that adds some “truth” to these nasty attitudes. And people love to shove it in your face “see!?! It’s printed here, it has to be true!!!”

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Fixing your vibe coded messEnglish
37·4 months agoBleh. Late 90s I was a mobile pc tech and I could have used these gloves back then on some computers. People are gross.
Oh, you have no idea. If you don’t have a job (or 5), then you’re going to prison for being a vagrant. Or they do some dystopian shit where you are in the equivalent work labor camp, where you are provided basic life necessities in exchange for paying off your debt by working based on your skills. No skills? Manual labor in farms or construction.
People really have no idea what we’re complacently walking into. If you’re not rich, and I mean a few million american dollarooos or trump bucks… say next 10 years…? You’re fucked.
Don’t talk to the cops. Say you want a lawyer and will remain silent. They are not your friend. They have zero interest in “your side” of the story and only wish to gather info to arrest you. Once you’re arrested you are someone else’s problem and they don’t care.
In case you didn’t see it. DONT’T TALK TO COPS.

memes@lemmy.world•Only one generation knows how to fix tech...English
13·5 months agoThough i’m the very tail end of genX and a “computer expert”, I pretty much think that the millennial generation being the only generation was all part of a solid de-education plan. At the rate we’re going Its only a matter of time where the tech we have today is forced to be only approved OS, controlled, monitored and IT capable people who know how to bypass will be arrested for violating the law.
The water is starting to get warm…

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Screen size & your importanceEnglish
1·5 months agoJust had a conversation with someone on this last weekend. They’re what I call someone dependent on corporate daycare. They need to be working or they lack self value. Their boss is an ass, hardly works and this guy thinks he’s slacking at 12 hours a day (exaggerated only a little).
What are you doing that is so important? Is it saving someone’s life? Life changing cancer drugs? No no, it’s a PowerPoint that shows the progress on the projects of equally less important tasks that is only making your boss look good.
And the fucker still thinks he’s not WORKING HARD ENOUGH!!
I have a sister like this, so i feel this lesson here is choose what you share. For me, tell her when you want people to know, but tell her its a secret so she stews on it then posts it to facebook for the world to see. I’ve been strategic about it, helps the process.




Seriously, has no one thought of the shareholders!??!
