#data economy

[mbrainspaz]

that feeling when your boss implements a new task logging system where it's gonna take longer to log most tasks than to do them, so you tell him that, but he says 'we need the data'.

I just crossed 60k for the first time in my life and what little work I get to do typically serves to improve life in a local community, so I guess my job is logging tasks now.

Stuck on Big Tech vs. Big China, America Overlooks the Real Social Media Revolution Happening Elsewhere

I think this is pretty spot on; whenever I see discussion of the economy and economic perceptions, there's always people in the replies going "yeah, but eggs are $8 a dozen" or "why is every middle class family I know foodbanking." And then OP, or someone else, will post data showing egg prices are stable, or that wages have actually been rising faster than inflation, and the person who posted that may even admit that, ok, things are fine for them personally, but not for other people.

And it's always been true that politics is more about attitudes and aesthetics than it is about policy or facts on the ground; but it's rare that attitudes are so divorced from people's actual material circumstances. And while I think there are lots of things contributing to this disconnect, as matter of campaigning, I don't really know how you overcome it.

Oki hi I'm going to do my best to write down prices of gas per gallon I see from gas station signs when I drive past them in my specific area

Last time I filled up my vehicle was 1/13/25 (before the President change) an the price per gallon was 3.19

Today 1/25/25 (after the President change) gas price per gallon was 3.25

The price of gas so far has not decreased

I hope to update this every week to every other week for the course of the next for years

I encourage others to add there the prices in their area so hopefully we can get an accurate data of gas prices over the next four years

Update as of when I got gas on 2/4/25 the price per gallon was 3.39

A U.S. envoy has arrived in Beirut to meet with Lebanese officials about a possible cease-fire in the Israel-Hezbollah war.

Amos Hochstein, a senior advisor to United States President Joe Biden, arrived Tuesday, a day after Hezbollah reportedly gave a positive response to a U.S. draft proposal to end the war, which has been ongoing for more than 13 months.

The U.S. has been working on a proposal to end hostilities that would remove Israeli ground forces from Lebanon and push Hezbollah forces away from the Israeli border. More Lebanese troops and U.N. peacekeepers would be sent to the buffer zone in southern Lebanon as part of the deal....Read More
