  • Regular economic thinking doesn’t work on the scale of nations. Just like a family having debt is not the same thing as a country having debt.

    Pretty much everyone in the world has no full idea how an economy works and how to best stimulate it. It’s like a trillion moving parts and smart asses always go “yea this pin over here? That’s the one that’s the problem / solution”

    Pretty much no-one knows. We have ideas what’s better / worse but anyone who tells you they’ve got it figured out, is lying.






  • I feel like enshitification has hit the NBA too. People keep saying, as you are, that these contracts are worth it because they bring in the money, but the games to me personally are unwatchable.

    There are ads EVERYWHERE, constantly… Every inch, every second is plastered with ads. I don’t bother watching anything until the playoffs, and even then I pick my poison.

    Now, obviously my opinion doesn’t matter because there are people watching, but I honestly don’t know how much longer it can go… They play ads between free throws…

    If you watched the Olympic games it feels like it isn’t even the same sport, it’s so much more enjoyable.
