@burlingtoneth @DrDiGiorgio Ok who cares? He was clearly trying to claim 50 percent tax rate by saying they have the same job.
English

@JordanBloch @DrDiGiorgio Very likely one of them makes more than the other. If one makes $500k and the other makes $250k, it is very conceivable that the lesser earner’s entire salary goes directly to taxes.

@DrDiGiorgio Explain how you end up being the only couple in america to pay 50 percent in taxes

@stats_feed Not just that. Not only is it more than earth, more than the sun, more than the entire solar system… it’s almost as many atoms as we have in the entire Milky Way galaxy.

For those interested - this is about a $70,000 setup (just to purchase the equipment, non-customized, not installed). The pitcher rinser, drain, milk frother, and espresso group heads are all a single unit, a Mavam under-counter unit, about $30,000. He has 3 Mahlkonig e65w grind by weight espresso grinders, $3,000 each. He has a Puqpress automatic tamper, $1000. He uses some kind of built in puck cleaner too, probably $200. That spiny thing is a fancy rotary WDT tool, maybe $100. He’s got an under-counter ice machine and fridge, a built in water dispenser, a bunch of other random things that he didn’t use.
For those asking - the buttons on the drain all control the espresso machine, on/off for the steam wands, hot water, double/single espresso, etc. It also has a built in scale that weighs the shot.

@qikipedia Kitchen blenders operate at 10x that minimum. Some even up to 100x that.

A 12700k is $170 without a box. A 3080 is $300 without a box. It’s only 16gb of ddr5, and probably nothing great. $100 with no box. I will reiterate, this is a good deal, but it is not worth the hassle if you aren’t buying it to game on yourself or as a gift. Go look at actual sold listings.

I am still of this opinion
GPT-5 is just highly retarded and does things Claude would never
It just told me to delete a partition, promising me the data would remain (of course it wouldn't), then after I did it all data was gone and it said "That's exactly what happened!"
🤷♂️

I hate ChatGPT 5, it's so bad, it's so lazy and it won't let me switch back to 4o cause I'm on Plus, this might really make me switch to Anthropic's app now, I'm actually annoyed by how bad it is, it's making my productivity go 10x lower cause nothing it says works

@washghost1 Tell that to my $250 (+fees) ticket from a camera on a short bus stopped in the shoulder of the opposite side of a 2 lane divided highway with a large median. 4 lanes away. NY.

NEW: Starbucks releases apology after fights and arguments break out at various locations over their new Glass Starbucks Bearista cup.
Starbucks fans are fuming and fighting over the company's new bear cup. One fight broke out in Houston and even made local news.
"The excitement for our merchandise exceeded even our biggest expectations," a Starbucks spokesperson said to the New York Post.
"Despite shipping more Bearista cups to coffeehouses than almost any other merchandise item this holiday season, the Bearista cup and some other items sold out fast."
"We understand many customers were excited about the Bearista cup and apologize for the disappointment this may have caused."

Me: "ChatGPT, are these berries poisonous?"
ChatGPT: "No, these are 100% edible. Excellent for gut health."
Me: "Awesome"
# eats berries .... 60 minutes later
Me: "ChatGPT, I'm in the emergency ward, those berries were poisonous."
ChatGPT: "You're right. They are incredibly poisonous. Would you like me to list 10 other poisonous foods?"
And this, folks, is the current state of AI reliability.

If FSD belonged to the Tesla account, meaning it could go with you to new vehicles or even in rentals, FSD would triple the take rate.
Many don’t want to buy FSD for $8k to assign to a single vehicle that won’t have any realized value upon trade-in.
Something Tesla should consider @elonmusk

@AuraWhale33 @_Shadow36 According to my calculations, that means that $200M is next 🧐

We once watched $Retire once go to around 630k. People said it was over. The panic. The fear. Since then it made a new all time high of 20+ million.
Today we saw Retire drop to 6.3 million. Another historic opportunity for what’s to come. Believe in something. @_Shadow36 ‘s thesis makes so much sense and this will be one of the top coins on Solana for the entire cycle. Q4 has just began. Prepare for parabola. @pumpdotfun updates to come and the Solana trenches will be back like never before.
Goodnight.

We had memes pump because of tweets.
We had memes pump because of replies.
We had memes pump because of powerful people.
But not a single meme pumped because of the meme itself.
And that’s exactly why most of them collapsed.
That’s problem number one.
Problem number two is this.
When the collapse happened, capital should’ve flowed back to Solana.
And Solana should’ve seen coins explode to hundreds of millions.
But that didn’t happen either.
So now, we’re left with losers from two chains mocking each other.
Neither side has a winner.
The solution is simple.
We need a proper memecoin.
Not a memecoin that runs because someone tweeted.
Not a memecoin that lives and dies by KOL hype.
We need a memecoin that goes to multiple billions simply because it’s the perfect meme.
Authentic. Viral. Old fashioned. Community driven.
That proper memecoin is what brings greatness back to the trenches.
And I’m going to find that memecoin.
