Oh, I know poverty in Bulgaria well. Not my own but someone very dear to me is from Sofia. She is one of three sisters. One married a mafia accountant, one turned to sports to get out, and the last became a sex worker and porn actor in Italy. None are poor now.
As I said. No shame in survival.

The world is ruthless. You do what you gotta to take care of you and yours. If it doesn’t hurt anyone, it shouldn’t be shamed. My 2¢.

- Comment on Trump scraps tariffs on beef, coffee and tropical fruit in a push to lower grocery store prices 5 days ago:
Maybe domestic beef is primarily high grade and the bulk of the beef American households consume is cheap ground beef. If so, then we might export the good stuff for profit and import the shit for pennies.
That’s just a thought. I don’t follow the beef industry.

- Comment on E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial - Bad Game Hall of Fame 2 weeks ago:
The E.T. game being “the worst game” thing is all myth. It was a tremendous flop, but it had nothing to do with game quality. I’d say that 90% of Atari 2600 games were objectively bad and E.T. was amongst the 10% of good ones, but they over estimated demand, overhyped it, and sold it during the holidays, which means extended and relaxed return policies. That resulted in too many units manufactured and too many units returned. Thus the landfill full of cartridges.
- Comment on Trump Administration Providing Weapons Grade Plutonium to Sam Altman 3 weeks ago:
We desperately need upgrades to our energy infrastructure. Production and even moreso, distribution are in desperate need. It doesn’t help that huge chunks of our existing production are being gobbled up by datacenters. We are also at least a decade behind China in clean energy production, and we have an excess of weapons grade plutonium. All of the above makes giving access to these resources to companies developing new forms of energy production make sense.
THAT SAID, I have zero trust or confidence in the current administration’s ability to govern or manage this process safely and securely. I also have very little faith in technology disruptors and their capabilities, diligence, or discipline to manage such a dangerous resource.
My worry is not Skynet with nukes as much as it is American weapons grade plutonium ending up in the hands of someone with a deep desire to create and use nuclear weapons (functional or dirty).

As long as you respect others’ gender and sexuality, you are under no obligation to feel sexually attracted to them the same way they aren’t obligated to feel sexually attracted to you. Love and respect for all is the bottom line.

- Comment on The aws outage is so funny, I can see which companies are amazon scums. 4 weeks ago:
No. Everyone always focuses on the flashy stuff like datacenters but the truth is that the most vulnerable, overtaxed, and underfunded weak-spot for the United States is the electric grid.
- Comment on Mom they're fighting again 4 weeks ago:
I lived in the US Virgin Islands as a kid. Our back yard had a seemingly endless supply of mangoes, bananas, avocado, lime, oranges (the real stuff, not the engineered shit we eat in the mainland), grapefruit, bread fruit, acerola, plantains, and pigeon peas. It wasn’t even that big a yard. Shit just grows.
