05:28 schestowitz; this nnnumber seems too setep
05:28 DaemonFC; "But Russia's war on Ukraine has delivered a major shock to the workforce. The military mobilized 300,000 troops last year and plans to mobilize hundreds of thousands more this year.
05:28 DaemonFC; And about 200,000 Russian troops have been killed or wounded while fighting in Ukraine, with some estimates putting losses at 500 troops a day.
05:28 DaemonFC; Meanwhile, nearly a million Russians may have left the country for various reasons, whether to escape the military mobilization or flee Western sanctions that have caused economic distress within the nation, according to the Washington Post.
05:28 DaemonFC; But the 14,000 employers surveyed by the Russian central bank were optimistic about an eventual turnaround, anticipating that seasonal trends will attract workers back in the next few months."
05:28 DaemonFC; That sounds like a very Russian assessment of the situation.
05:28 DaemonFC; If this was the Soviet Politburo.

08:20 schestowitz; got our power bill yesterday
08:20 schestowitz; just calculated it
08:20 schestowitz; and discussed it in the kitchen
08:20 schestowitz; so it's something like this
08:21 schestowitz; cost of electricity per day (annual average): 3 pounds
08:21 schestowitz; or 1.5 pp
08:21 schestowitz; cost of gas just shy of a pound a day
08:21 schestowitz; we use electric for hobs
08:21 schestowitz; so that's just boilr
08:21 schestowitz; 49p per person per day
08:22 schestowitz; and that's with not much minimalism
08:22 schestowitz; but then the issue would be kids
08:22 schestowitz; for them, you need to heat up the home
08:22 schestowitz; baths etc.
08:22 schestowitz; so you quickly treble the bills
08:22 schestowitz; we have 9 computers turned on 24/7
08:22 schestowitz; plus 5 external screens
08:23 schestowitz; for 3 pounds per day it's not too bad, inc. boiled water for beverages, laundry etc.
08:23 schestowitz; not sure how that compared to US and Canada
08:23 schestowitz; but the problem would be kids
08:23 schestowitz; kids mean you need things like central heating

08:35 DaemonFC; Those deals usually take 4-6 weeks if financing is in order and they liked the building.
08:36 DaemonFC; If it goes on much longer it usually means financing fell through or they bicker about price or try to get out.

08:42 DaemonFC; schestowitz, McDonalds plans to kill of some of their franchisees.
08:43 DaemonFC; Wonder which ones.
08:44 DaemonFC; Most of those clauses give corporate the right to force them out and buy the franchised location.
08:44 DaemonFC; So they might be using the grading system that way.
08:45 DaemonFC; If corporate is flush with cash, giving profitable stores bad scores and forcing them to sell to corporate may be better than share buybacks.

19:58 DaemonFC; People shove them away and then some forget to cash them. Maybe someday their grandkids find them, but by that point the bond hasn't made interest payments in over 40 years.
19:58 schestowitz; DaemonFC: many people lack savings
19:59 DaemonFC; So even if they cash it, the government paid very little interest on it at this point.
19:59 schestowitz; worse: many have kids
19:59 schestowitz; money burning
19:59 DaemonFC; If you buy a bond in 1950 and it stops paying interest in 1970 and your grandkids find it and cash it in 2023....
19:59 DaemonFC; They get the face value from 1970s.
19:59 DaemonFC; So it's basically, not worth much anymore.
20:00 schestowitz; a lot of money is like this
20:00 DaemonFC; Because let's say it matured in 1970 for $100 face value. The bond sold at a discount of 27%. That was a good deal if you cashed it in 1970.
20:00 schestowitz; they hope people don't redeem it
20:00 schestowitz; and they never help you find it
20:00 schestowitz; they make money from obstructing
20:00 DaemonFC; But 53 years go by with inflation and no more interest.
20:00 DaemonFC; So the value of the bond is reduced by over 80%.
20:00 schestowitz; it took me 3 months just to get real answers about the pensions
20:00 schestowitz; and that's not like some very old pen sion
20:01 DaemonFC; So in real terms, that person paid $73. The bond matures in 1970, worth $100 then. You cash it now, you get $18 in adjusted terms.

20:32 DaemonFC; Though he may still score a win if he can get the buyer to breach the contract and keep their deposit money.
20:32 DaemonFC; That might be worth up to $50,000 or so.

20:38 TR Bot; Fake Books Are a Real Home Dcor Trend - The New York Times
20:38 DaemonFC; Rich people fill homes with fake books. "for decor"
20:39 DaemonFC; "If it looks like a book, feels like a book and stacks like a book, then theres still a good chance it may not be a book.
20:39 DaemonFC; Fake books come in several different forms: once-real books that are hollowed out, fabric backdrops with images of books printed onto them, empty boxlike objects with faux titles and authors or sometimes just a facade of spines along a bookshelf. Already the norm for film sets and commercial spaces, fake books are becoming popular fixtures in homes. While some people are going all in and covering entire walls in fake books, others are aghast at
20:39 DaemonFC; the thought that someone would think to decorate with a book that isnt real.
20:39 DaemonFC; I will never use fake books, said Jeanie Engelbach, an interior designer and organizer in New York City. It just registers as pretentious, and it creates the illusion that you are either better read or smarter than you really are."
20:39 DaemonFC; This sounds like something MARISOL would do.

20:41 DaemonFC; "Mr. Brown has sold more than 1,200 faux books on Etsy."
20:41 DaemonFC; He takes real books, older ones, and ruins them, so he can sell them as fake books.
20:42 DaemonFC; What the fuck am I reading here?
20:42 DaemonFC; "A D.I.Y.er, Mr. Brown takes real books that he finds at thrift stores and yard sales, glues the pages together and hollows out the center; the end result is a book-like object that customers can use to store trinkets or small valuables.
20:42 DaemonFC; His customers have used the books to hold an engagement ring for a proposal, succulents, cash, photos and more. There was a preacher who did a lot of weddings, but he was losing his memory so he couldnt always remember what to say. So he wanted a book that could conceal that he was reading from his phone, Mr. Brown said. They used a nondescript black book, Mr. Brown said, as the preacher didnt want to cut a Bible (though hollowed-out
20:42 DaemonFC; Bibles are the most popular request from Mr. Browns customers)."

21:27 DaemonFC; Said "We make a lot of money and have a good FICO."
21:27 DaemonFC; FRC would have stamped the GULAG/Buffy Mortgage as "super low risk" and said they only owed interest payments for the first 10 years and interest was like 2% (or less).
21:28 DaemonFC; The problem is that the bank isn't pulling in anything from the GULAG/Buffy loan in the first ten years, especially now that other investments safely pay several times the interest alone (which is all the GULAG/Buffy mortgage has to pay for the first ten years).
21:28 DaemonFC; Meanwhile, GULAG works at a company that runs out of cash in about a year or so because VC dries up.
21:29 DaemonFC; So eventually, FRC is LUCKY if the GULAG/Buffy loan is even pulling in interest (at 2%) and doesn't go into default.

22:20 DaemonFC; STATE OF ILL gets smacked by federal judge.
22:21 DaemonFC; (The Center Square) The ban on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines in Illinois was blocked Friday by a federal judge who issued an injunction in a pending lawsuit.
22:21 DaemonFC; McGlynn on Friday granted a motion for a preliminary injunction, blocking enforcement of the law statewide.
22:21 DaemonFC; Plaintiffs have satisfied their burden for a preliminary injunction, McGlynn wrote.
22:21 DaemonFC; They have shown irreparable harm with no adequate remedy at law, a reasonable likelihood of success on the merits, that the public interest is in favor of the relief, and the balance of harm weighs in their favor. Therefore, the Plaintiffs motions for preliminary injunction are GRANTED. Defendants are ENJOINED from enforcing Illinois statutes 720 ILCS 5/24-1.9(b) and (c), and 720 ILCS 5/24-1.10, along with the PICA amended provisions
22:21 DaemonFC; set forth in 735 ILCS 5/24-1(a), including subparagraphs (11), (14), (15), and (16), statewide during the pendency of this litigation until the Court can address the merits, McGlynn said.

22:35 DaemonFC; He also said the companys "next stage of growth" necessitates a "different mix of skill sets, particularly in AI [artificial intelligence] and early-stage product development." Dropbox moved people to different teams "wherever possible" as it works to boost its AI efforts, according to his blog post."

22:47 lord_bagira; i cant tell if just my portfolio is getting shit on or if the whole market is sinking
22:48 DaemonFC; So if I buy state minimum, I only get $349 per premium dollar spent if I run into a car with a single person in it and they go to the hospital and max out my policy coverage.
22:48 DaemonFC; If I get the 50/100, I get $525 per premium dollar in that case.
22:49 DaemonFC; And if I get the $100,000 policy, I get $702 of protection in that case per premium dollar spent.
22:49 lord_bagira; up until today due to proportional matching of PACW to FRC purchases, my PACW holdings were compensating for my FRC losses as I buy into the falling knife that is FRC, but, today it broke the threshold and honestly FRC has sunk so low that it's too late to pull out
22:49 DaemonFC; While higher coverages do cost more, they also bring about a "discount" per unit of coverage, for a number of reasons.
22:50 DaemonFC; People who think about risk to themselves probably pose less risk of filing a claim.
22:50 lord_bagira; i can break even now, but if FRC tanks, I won't make a profit

23:26 DaemonFC; Oh god.
23:26 DaemonFC; "Never mind using AI to write stories Walmart is finding it helpful for landing a good bargain. The retailer tells Bloomberg that it's using a chatbot from Pactum AI to automatically negotiate some supplier deals. The technology is not only saving an average of three percent on contracts, but preferable to the vendors. Three out of four suppliers prefer haggling with the AI over a human, Walmart says."
23:27 DaemonFC; "Pactum's system just asks Walmart to set its budget and requirements, such as discounts and payment terms. It compares a supplier's demands with trends, commodity values and competitors' costs. After that, the AI can strike a deal within a matter of days, rather than the weeks or months of conventional talks. Walmart first piloted the tool in Canada, but has since expanded its use to the US, Chile and South Africa."
23:27 DaemonFC; "The AI is currently negotiating only for shopping carts and other store essentials, rather than the products you find on the shelves. It's also not completely replacing humans. At present, Pactum's tech is mainly being used for savings in contracts that aren't necessarily worth much time. The bot still has to negotiate with a real person, so completely automated discussions aren't any option in the near future. This is more to lighten the load
23:27 DaemonFC; of busy procurement teams than to avoid hiring."
23:30 DaemonFC; schestowitz, Makes sense.
23:30 DaemonFC; Turn over contracts that aren't worth a lot and test the bot on those.
