Whenever I see dates like this I do the math in my head almost on reflex.
Man, dad died at 43, that must have been heartbreaking. Makes me wonder about the story behind the author.

They will all throw those Bombardiers away and buy a bunch of Boeings, for sure.

- Comment on How do you fight doomerism/pessimism in these trying times? 3 weeks ago:
Take a historical perspective. Even with the muppets currently in power in some countries in the world, this is still the best time to be alive in the history of mankind. 100 years from now, 47 will be two paragraphs in a history book.
How many people know about the life and times of James Buchanan? How many people care? What about Herbert Hoover? Or Andrew Jackson?
And at least you get to talk about it. Imagine life under Stalin in the USSR, when a neighbour could report you for sedition and you would disappear into a gulag the next week. Or Pol Pot’s Cambodia, where wearing glasses was a death sentence (yes, really).
I’m in Europe, and from where I’m standing, Trump looks like a giant unflattering mirror. If America doesn’t like what it sees in it, maybe work and fix it. On our side is the same: this mirror shows decades of complacent bureaucracy and infighting. So here’s the other silver lining: now we know what needs fixing.

“Pain = gain” would probably be more accurate.
- Comment on Even though I dislike Reddit... 2 months ago:
I don’t miss it. I clicked today on a reddit search result and ended up on an AI generated search thing that was trying to be helpful. Noped the hell out.

Hot take: he occasionally leaves his phone unlocked when his little brother’s around.
Really looks like a prank to me.
