Yeah agree, I think it's really about personal risk tolerance.
I do agree 5 years is a while, but it's also easy to say that right now based on the last 5 years. It's not terribly difficult to find 5 year periods where returns aren't very good or flat out bad (e.g. starting investing in 2000).
Depends on how soon you are planning to buy. The usual rule of thumb for a big purchase (house, car, etc) is that if you’re planning on it occurring in 3-5 years, put money in a savings account. Otherwise, yeah you should probably invest it.
It is interesting they only support 64gb and then jump to 128gb. It seems like a money play since it's $1,000 to upgrade for 128, and if you're running something that needs more than 64 (like LLMs?) you kind of have no choice.
Why… well, it’s a sport where you compete to lift the most weight. The other competition lift is the clean and jerk.
For my old ass I do it because it’s so hard and the rest of my life is fairly soft. Waking up and getting beat down by some snatches (or occasionally having a great session) keeps me level headed in other areas of life, I guess.
If you’re not a competitive weightlifter but still training explosiveness for other sports then you’re better off doing variations on the lifts. Like hang snatches, power cleans, power snatches, etc.
Same thing with Olympic weightlifting. This is a very common phrase in my gym.
Snatching has got to be the most humbling barbell movement ever. Dudes who can easily bench over 100 kg (220 lbs) would never get to close snatching that. (Myself included, but hopefully one day)
It was about table saws, not circular saws. There’s a big difference between the two. Table saw accidents often result in losing fingers and it’s not that difficult to mess up while using one.
There’s a well known, proven, easy solution to table saw accidents called SawStop. It’s basically as obvious to use as a seat belt is if you want to be safe. The only problem is those table saws are very expensive.
Social media doesn’t have an existing and obvious solution (besides not using it).
I believe it's only five months of health insurance since it says "Five months of benefit continuation". It does also say "Continued access to Modern Health through the end of 2024", but Modern Health is a mental health platform.
I was referring to the capital gains tax you pay for selling BTC on an exchange. I was thinking specifically about Roth IRAs, where any gains are tax free, but a 401k or similar would work too.
