Other comments had it so I didn’t think it was necessary. Immigration can prop up a low birthrate but that can’t last forever. Need to actually have a culture that supports procreation. And Japan doesn’t really have that. Their work culture is directly responsible for it. I don’t think that’s something easily fixed. Financial incentives could help, but unless it’s pretty hefty it probably wouldn’t be enough.

That’s not the main problem here.

Says more about China than Tesla. Though, both suck pretty hard.

Yes, but things like gold have actual uses which give them at least some actual value. Fiat currency is backed 100% by belief.

Your $200 suddenly being with $100 is going to hurt a lot more than the guy with $200 billion suddenly only being worth $100 billion.

Ehhh, not sure I’d go that far. Money, no matter what backs it, is just what people value it as. Just that when backed by real goods, e.g. gold, that it gives people a better reason to value it because the goods are worth something.

Mostly saying, money backed by a good have at least the value of the good itself. Which I would say makes money not fake.

When it’s backed by belief, then it’s fake.

Yea, everyone knows it’ll be Monday. The worst day of the week.

Even if so, it’s easy to misinterpret the headline.

Needs fewer pixels.

Your stance feels more like a “everyone disliked that” to me.

Have they fixed their cheating problem?

Maybe I’m dumb, but doesn’t that make it the opposite of Middle Earth?

That does seem to be a tad inefficient.

No one said they were oppressed. They said men can also be victims.

Start in utopia, then descend to hell.

I know him, for he is me.

Ok. What about n=5?

So do many simulation games.
