TL;DR: the *actual* poverty line in the US for a family of four with two young children is about $140,000, and there isn't much improvement in quality of life between $40K and $100K.
There's more good stuff in there too, you should read the whole thing.

We’re watching a shift where AI simulates the cohesion and reinforcement that used to require an entire online community. A single person can now build a complete parallel reality with nothing more than a prompt window. Which seems bad.

The first camera I bought with my own money, I bought used from a man in Brooklyn with a numbered tattoo on his arm.
He told me a story of how Leica sent Jews to America with Leica cameras to make them “sales” people. The goal was to rescue them and get them out of Germany.
I bought that camera.
