« on: April 25, 2024, 02:22:15 PM »
as more or less permanent cards, we keep:
chase freedom (x2)
costco
bofa cash rewards
cap one vx
everything else gets churned at various speeds.

by my calculations, the royals are down 3-4 in this crucial third pod. will really show what the team is made of if they can fight back and take the pod.

technically, it's your chart.
i see your point on household size and i didn't see anywhere where that info is given by generation. the authors did say this, but i don't see the data actually presented.

Consistent with these household formation
trends, the improvements across generations for those in their late-30s are also apparent when
looking at the incomes of individuals and couples, rather than households.

the interesting thing is the mccarthy got kicked out just for funding the govt but johnson completely rolled them, and it looks like the freedom caucus will do nothing more than whine about it.

« on: April 19, 2024, 09:56:10 PM »saying housing "costs" are not much higher than a generation ago is ignoring the fact that housing is also an asset that is much more valuable than a generation ago.
wut? genuinely no idea what you are saying here.
not sure why you twisted into children either. i didn't read it, but afaik, the economist article was not an attempt at understanding declining birth rates.

i think it just shows that younger cohorts in the us have higher incomes at the same stage in life than did older cohorts, and that gen z does not diverge from that trend. there could be some compositional effects that are distorting the data as presented, but it's not immediately clear to me that there would be.
it's true that the cost of housing has outpaced inflation more generally, but gen z is still spending less on housing than did older cohorts. americans are still getting richer.

it's a good question. and happening at the same time as the non-tipped wage is also increasing.

credit, such as it is, where credit is due. after wasting half the year and getting thousands of ukrainians killed for no reason, johnson finally did what needed to be done.

i don't think many countries are gonna agree to give up or forgo nukes when they can see the consequences in ukraine (or examples on the opposite side of the ledger).

that's all i ever wanted.
on arms control, it's ironic, at least to me, that the policies favored by isolationists (you and dax) provide an enormous incentive for countries around the world to reengage with nuclear weapons development.
