  • Hopefully it’ll hit the point where retirement funds divest. Once that happens Tesla will go into proper free fall.

    Hell, hopefully retirement funds (maybe not yanks ones but at least those from other countries) will start to divest out of American markets entirely as they become more volatile as your flip flop president changes his addled mind every half an hour.



  • I’m about to start my 12 week paternity leave next week thanks to a state program and almost everyone that I’ve told has had their jaws on the floor that I would even want to do that.

    That’s actually getting close to the amount some of the worse countries in Europe give.

    To me it was a no brainer, I’m getting ~85% of my normal pay and I get to take care of my wife, our son and our newborn for 3 whole months

    The only reason I could see not to do that is if that 15% would leave finances so tight you couldn’t turn on the heating. But as you probably spend more that that on comminuting absolutely no brainer.

    My company in the UK only gives 2 weeks paternity so most guys save and use all their holiday for the year to bring their total time off to 9 weeks.

    It’s an addiction. Don’t tell to go cold turkey. Have an alternative in place and then gradually reduce your timer for Reddit. Look at how much you use each day on average then set the timer for that. So first your getting rid of your high usage days. After a couple of days reduce it by 5 mins. Keep repeating this. Also, trim down the subs you’re subscribed to so there’s less new content showing up.
