  • Hi Claude! What are all the items in the song,“12 Days of Christmas”?

    Okay, here is a summary of the items in the song “The Twelve Days of Christmas” without reproducing the full lyrics:

    On the first day of Christmas, the singer receives 1 partridge in a pear tree. On the second day, the singer receives 2 turtle doves and 1 partridge in a pear tree. On the third day, the singer receives 3 French hens, 2 turtle doves, and 1 partridge in a pear tree. And so on, with the number of gifts increasing each day, up to 12 drummers drumming, 11 pipers piping, 10 lords a-leaping, 9 ladies dancing, 8 maids a-milking, 7 swans a-swimming, 6 geese a-laying, 5 gold rings, 4 calling birds, 3 French hens, 2 turtle doves, and 1 partridge in a pear tree.

    The full list includes a partridge in a pear tree, turtle doves, French hens, calling birds, gold rings, geese, swans, maids, ladies, lords, pipers, and drummers.

    I need a list of all the items and the quantities for each item.

    Okay, here is the full list of items and quantities from the song “The Twelve Days of Christmas”:

    12 Drummers Drumming 11 Pipers Piping 10 Lords a-Leaping 9 Ladies Dancing 8 Maids a-Milking 7 Swans a-Swimming 6 Geese a-Laying 5 Gold Rings 4 Calling Birds 3 French Hens 2 Turtle Doves 1 Partridge in a Pear Tree

    Claude nails it again.












  • That’s completely, 100% untrue.

    I’m going to make these numbers up, but the math checks out.

    If you’re a nurse making 100k/year, let’s assume you take home 60k of that. You’ll take home a million dollars after “just” 17 years. Are you really going to tell me that nurses are exploitative labor?

    Now, I’m not going to get into the math of expenses because I’m lazy, but I’m also not factoring in any kind of investing either.

    Now, those nurses need a supervisor to handle advanced work they aren’t familiar with, scheduling, dealing with mgmt, telling Drs to fuck off, etc. So if that nurse lead takes home 100k, they can do it even sooner at just 10 years. You can argue that this is exploitative labor, but you’d be wrong.

    At some point you get supervisors that don’t do or contribute anything and pull in like 500k/year. Those jobs should probably not exist since they are by definition exploitative. But earning a few million dollars over the course of your lifetime is easily achievable on your own labor alone.

    You can’t be a billionaire on your own labor. You can be a millionaire on your own labor, but it isn’t easy and takes a long time.

    My net worth is almost a million dollars because my wife and I don’t have kids and our jobs pay decently. We should be millionaires in the next five years or less. We don’t have anyone who reports to us. Who have we exploited? In my col area we need (currently) 3 million total to live a modest retirement. Under your plan, this would be impossible to achieve. Do you want to make everyone a wage slave forever? And that’s ignoring high COL areas like NYC and LA where a million dollars might get you a small house.



  • I do understand. I used to stay up playing WoW until sunrise. I used to have an in-game alarm set at 2 AM IRL to remind me to go to bed. I ground dailies until I hated them.

    From one gamer to another: get out while you can. For one thing, I missed out on a LOT of good games because I was playing WoW. And the expansions are always a tease; the entire xpac and all of your work is going to be useless the very instant the next one drops. More than anything, I didn’t like who I was when I played WoW.

    I quit something like 5 or 6 years ago I think (sometime during the disaster that was Battle for Azeroth) and boy am I glad I did. Sometimes I miss Azeroth, but that is a relationship that will drain your very soul. Gotta do one more daily. One more dungeon. One more raid. Then I’ll have enough widgets to buy the gizmo! And honestly, I was never even that good. Pretty much everything in my life has improved since I quit WoW. Not all of it was because of crippling gaming addiction, of course, but it made every aspect of my life more difficult.

    All of the above applies to Elite: Dangerous as well. If you are at the point where you are rethinking your relationship with a game, its long past time to stop playing.
