    The Great Rat Race Escape mixing science with opinion ?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Hi @MJ DeMarco I think it's best if you close this thread, since it will probably just cause unproductive arguments.

    The Great Rat Race Escape mixing science with opinion ?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Thanks for the urls. I do think the data should be analyzed to find the cause of similarity between states ( is the percentage of people avoiding/following safety measures similar regardless of mandates ? ) but here is how I look at it for my own life : - I know what a virus is - I know how...

    The Great Rat Race Escape mixing science with opinion ?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    it's not really about fear or obedience, it's the same reason I wear a car seatbelt, it's because I wanna live. it's actually one of the things your fastlane book really made me realize: "to not take treasonous choices for my life". but anyway I don't think I will change your mind.

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Hi @MJ DeMarco Thanks for the latest book, they are always very actionable. there was one point that I saw mixed science with opinion, a section in chapter 1 that talks about how following "conventional wisdom" blindly can lead to bad consequences : "Such “wisdom” like go to college and earn...

    You’re not selling wholesale?

    NOTABLE! 
    Thanks a lot for sharing the info, but I believe the math has a common mistake of calculating the percentage off the end price instead of the base price: Item final price = $14.99 sold it to retailers at $9.74 so they make a 35% margin. but: if the store wants a 35% margin, and we sell to him...

    Web 3.0 (Ethereum) is happening, and most people have no idea what it even is.

    GOLD! IDEA 
    How is the blockchain more efficient ? from my understanding, it actually is a lot less efficient than using typical databases, but I believe their strength is the zero trust + full transparency + storing data so it can't be altered ( unless you do a 51% attack ).

    Web 3.0 (Ethereum) is happening, and most people have no idea what it even is.

    GOLD! IDEA 
    The jump from slow paper mail to email is huge, however, I don't see the value in changing your email to use the blockchain technology 1. what value do users get if current services switch to blockchain ? 2. any value to companies if they switch to blockchain ? 3. what are the novel...

    Web 3.0 (Ethereum) is happening, and most people have no idea what it even is.

    GOLD! IDEA 
    Are there any novel applications that are truly only enabled or substantially improved by blockchain ? ( the examples you mentioned like paying royalties for video or music are already being done by youtube & spotify, micropayments is already achieved by many companies, so what does blockchain...

    [RANT]: Raise the minimum wage! This is so unfair!

    EXECUTION GOLD! 
    You're probably right regarding the written words being my generalization, however, the picture does imply them, don't you think ? - people would see the poster & think "the poor are just lazy".

    [RANT]: Raise the minimum wage! This is so unfair!

    EXECUTION GOLD! 
    - I disagree with this idea, while millions might be poor because of their bad decisions or inaction, I think millions are poor because they are born poverty, with minimal or no access to knowledge, with a ton of bad influence + facing very bad & expensive health or other circumstances which are...

    $3,000 to $1,000,000 in 15 months: HOW TO DO IT

    IDEA 
    I like the idea from a viral marketing perspective, but I think it violates the value principle, I think the people who payed a 100$ to be on that wiki didn't get real return for their investment. I would love to hear your perspective @MJ DeMarco :)
