We've had Mastodon replace Twitter. What's the solution for replacing Reddit?

Don't hesitate to boost, I'm really curious if there are some alternatives or if we'll forget all about their shitty move in 1-2 months and we'll still use Reddit from the browser and their mobile apps full of ads.

PS : I'm gonna miss Apollo 😢

Allstate has joined State Farm in refusing to issue new homeowners insurance.

Do you realize the economic consequences of this threat of climate change? New homeowners will be unlikely to get new mortgages without insurance, and the costs will skyrocket.

Climate changes are going to have economic consequences far exceeding what traditional economists ever predicted.

And then, there is the -democratic solution of some countries:

make home insurance obligatory, if there aren't enough underwriters, create a state-owned entity.

Funding?

Wealth tax, additional/minimum inheritance tax for multi-millionaires, windfall-profits tax.

When the 🇪🇺 fines Twitter, Musk will probably layoff Twitter employees in out of spite, & maybe ban accounts on the bird site too.

Egads, you mentioned me on Hacker News. Sorry, "Hacker" "News".

I don't think it's happened before; what does one do in this situation?

I always loved the "chocolate-covered banana and integration of European currency systems" formulation. As you (quite correctly) point out, the obvious unconnectedness of the one with the other is the most fundamental aspect of the problem, and calling it "XY" loses that.

Fed rate hikes aren't simply a dial that controls inflation.

They're more like a Rube Goldberg machine—slowing the economy so much that workers lose jobs and pay until (maybe, just maybe) prices drop.

This is a bad way to fight inflation that's largely driven by price gouging.

Our third rental was $1350 in 2019…

…. wait for it…

Units like ours now rent from $2,000-2,200/m.

Prices for rent have nearly TRIPLED in less than a decade. We’ve been priced out - it’s a large part of why we’re leaving.
