God I love the EU for its consumer protections. Based. 🇪🇺

Let me tell you one thing: You’re doing alright.

Having your kids feel safe enough to be open like that and yourself sticking to listening and being there is probably the best anyone can hope for.

The main economically meaningful aspects of “retirement age” in Denmark AFAIK is that:

• You get entitled to receiving the public, state-paid pension.
• Private pension schemes that vest at this point or later are tax deductible. (you still pay taxes when it’s paid out, but due to the progressive tax code you end up paying less)

By far the most relevant of the two is the latter, as practically everyone is covered by pension schemes included in employment contracts.

As such you can still retire any time you want, but it will be more burdensome for you to it earlier than at the age sanctioned by law.

This.

I just wish we could collectively realize the whole enterprise is epistemologically bankrupt.

It is okay to stop trying to apply reason once you have encountered the first unreconcilable contradiction.

I’d vote to ship as many eggs as the market can bear. With the proviso that each egg comes painted with the face of Donald Trump and an “information” pamphlet…

Is it because a trained AI is used for profit?

Absolutely. But especially because it skews the market dynamic. Copyright doesn’t exist for moral reasons but financial reasons.

Is that a promise?

Being a 3-dimensional being I was only able to make sense of this by imagining what a 3D puzzle piece would look like.

This is of course a lie to make myself sound clever… it was the buttplug analogy that made it all snap into place for me.

I’ve heard about https://docs.cwtch.im/, but haven’t tried it. It does seem to take privacy very seriously.
