Cool. As per the guidelines, why would "good hackers", on a tech forum, find this "intellectually satisfying"?
Most of us are interested in complex systems, and the economy is a very complex system, and discussing the outcome of some of the most significant blunt changes to this system counts as "intellectually satisfying"?
Also, it's going to affect all our lives somehow, even if we're not watching from the inside.
Thanks for this response. This is 100% what I was going for. I try to understand the world that I live in and share my observations with others, and use this to help others when I can
Good hackers don't need to worry about layoffs?
It seems like the economy has been showing warning signs for a little while now, despite the stock market performance.
Nothing says "intellectually curious" like assuming your interests are the only valid ones.
