huh. hard to imagine this six years ago . is it escalatory itself or just a symptom of escalation? idk.
BREAKING:. Poland announces it’s sending the Polish Army to the country’s borders with Germany and Lithuania in order to stop illegals migrants from crossing into Poland

genuinely curious what happens next. are 1Ls and 2Ls affected?. i wonder if schools work around it with fake dual degree programs.
Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill caps the amount of money law students can borrow at 50,000 dollars a year. That doesn't even cover tuition at many law schools, let alone cost of living. This is devastating.

britain is about to get a political party led by high profile labour exiles, presumably for all of the people who believe the status quo is not radical enough actually. obvious(?) effect is splitting the labour vote, maybe destabilizing somehow though(??)

my advice is don't even learn what game theory unless youre planning to devote a year of your life to it being taught by a russian who screams at you every time you even slightly misstate a concept. anything else and you just give yourself brain damage.
@TossitRambles no its worse than that. either study it for years or don't even open the books it's infohazards several courses deep.

not naming any names here ha ha.
its the conceit that kills me. being wrong or confused is fine, i am both of these things constantly. but i hope i never say "i am the only person in the world who is right about a highly technical matter" while being just weirdly off base like this

game theory is the quantum mechanics of economics, which is to say it attracts exactly the same flavor of outside attention from exactly the same kind of people.
@eigenrobot reverence for game theory is a dead giveaway that you’re stupid.

i just worry it wont be enough and vulnerable immigrant populations will assimilate too quickly to this terrible and characteristically british habit.

uk now deploying thousands of employees to oppose forced marriage. presumably theyll politely ask marriage forcers to stop. glad to see the country finally taking decisive action to solve its centuries-old forced marriage problem.
Forced marriage robs people of choice, freedom and safety. Our joint Forced Marriage Unit is a vital lifeline, providing expert support, training for frontline professionals and a helpline for those who need it most.

im good to very good at all of these things and none of them are even top 10 skills. i suggest mastering things like sleeping 8 hours a night, exercising, building a loving marriage, making a plan and following through, and saving money.
Make it your goal in life to master three things:. Game Theory, Probability, Supply/Demand.

everyone thinks the con men robbing the treasury before fleeing the country look like harold hill, but they actually look like this. and the only way theyre "leaving the country" is in a box
@eigenrobot The massive national debt increase makes me feel like our nation is run by con-men raiding the treasury before fleeing the country. I know they know better, but they don’t care.

the basic truth is that entryists will always ruin your subculture and need to be gatekept or at least put in their place until they demonstrate by costly signalling via obsessive study that theyre not gonna wreck your shit because theyre fucked up in the same way you are

an old joke is relevant here. casual fan: the band's best album is their best album. serious fan: actually the band's best album is their second worst album. why might an obsessive scorn casuals, as identified by their enjoyment of a reddit object? several reasons.

what does a reddit object _signal_? to varying degrees:. "i am a superficial enthusiast or a dabbler". "i want moderately nice things and have put some effort in over basline". "i care about this but i am not an obsessive freak". "i am an entryist".

r/strength_training reddit object. yeah i know other forums came first but its quintessential. is it right everywhere? does everyone need to be doing squats all the time? does it ignore aesthetics?. who cares! way better than default gym behavior
