My question about growth/the venture capitalist mindset is like … how have venture capitalists and the like not figured this out already? It’s been a decade, give or take a few years, since the internet started being monetized to hell and back, and if we all know they’re not really making a profit (bc no one clicks on ads, obviously) then why are the structures still in place?im looking at all this and I feel like a dunce bc I just don’t get how ppl can keep ofunelling money into something that we all know doesn’t work lol ! :0

there's a couple reasons for this, but the tldr of it is that if you're wile e. coyote and you're running in the air over the edge of a cliff, it's in your material interests not to look down

let's say you're a venture capitalist and you've put $10 million into hypnospace, the hot new social media site. when you invest into a company, you invest at a certain price--the company has an idea of how much it's worth, and that determines what price they'll sell their shares at. let's say you buy at $10 a share, so you have a million shares in hypnospace. that $10-a-share-valuation was based on hypnospace telling you (in, say, 2012, when this was still believable and even seemed self-evident) that becuse they were seeing huge growth in daily active users, they'd eventually become insanely profitable.

now usually even you, a venture capitalist, a lifeform mostly resembling a parasitic flatworm, might be a little cautious about this investment. will they really become profitable? it seems risky. however because it's 2012, the US federal reserve has been giving out loans at their ZIRP (zero interest rate policy) for four years in a response to the 2008 financial crisis. what that means is that it's incredibly cheap for banks to borrow money, which in turn means it's incredibly cheap for you, a venture capitalist, to borrow that money from banks. when money is cheap, risky investments make a lot of sense--when you can get an extremely low-interest-rate loan, throwing that money down the toilet is unfortunate but no longer catastrophic. so you put your $10 million into hypnospace because the risk is artificially lowered by the ZIRP, making it well worth the reward.

now it's five years later and it's 2017 and it's becoming increasingly clear that hypnospace.horse is probably not going to became the new facebook and that perhaps there will in fact only be one facebook. bummer. but you've still got a million shares in it. this means that you're directly invested--not in the company becoming profitable, but in the valuation of that company going up. if people can be convinced to buy hypnospace shares at $12-a-share, you can make off with a cool $2 million even though the website never did anything useful or made any money. on the other hand, if people start thinking 'hey, this website has never made any money and it's obviously never going to, why would we buy shares in it'--shares plummet to $1 a share, and you're out $9 million! worst case scenario!

so even if you, the venture capitalist, realize that the website's a boondoggle, it's in your best interest to convince everyone around you that no, it really will become profitable, and its shares (that you hold some of!) are really valuable and you should want to buy them. and this doesn't just mean lying to other venture capitalists (although they love doing this)--capitalists pay close attention to sales of stocks. if you realize that hypnospace is never going to make money and decide to cut your losses and abruptly offload all million shares, other capitalists will interpret that for what it means--that you've totally lost confidence in seeing return on your investment--and many of them will panic and also start selling their shares, while capitalists with no hypnospace shares will think 'boy, this hypnospace thing seems like a real wash, i don't want to buy shares in that'.

so what do you do? you keep putting money in. if the company's increasing in valuation the more it grows, then even if you're crystal-clear aware that growth has no path to profitability, you still gain wealth for every month that the business stays afloat by burning money, because the valuation goes up and your shares are worth more. the ideal outcome for a venture capitalist investing into a tech company is to make a big investment, let the company bleed money while it grows for several years, then sell--not all at once, not abruptly, and not while the price is in stagnation or decline. it's one big game of hot potato for when the gig is finally up. not every venture capitalist has to be a totally credulous dipshit--just the last one in the line.

#ask #now a lot of the calculus on this has changed with interest rates on the rise again #but this explains basically the last decade of the tech sector

Danver’s specific brand of racism is so intrenched in love it’s fascinating. Her daughter is precious to her and her daughter is Indigenous and in this town, an Indigenous woman is not viewed as a precious thing. They are abused and raped and murdered and therefore, being white is the ‘better’ choice. She is actively whitewashing her daughter, not only because she’s afraid of what she doesn’t understand and because of typical coloniser mentality, but because she doesn’t want to lose her. Danvers can’t distance Indigenous identity from white violence and it’s killing what she loves.

#it’s why she doesn’t mind the other indigenous people she lives alongside #not until she cares about them #because then she had to grapple with racialised violence #that Indigenous women in Alaska (and all over the world) experience violence at a significantly higher rate than other women #and it’s her job to keep them safe! she’s the chief of police and she has changed NOTHING #she is complicit in that violence! and she doesn’t want to face it #doesn’t want to face her role and doesn’t want to acknowledge how horrible everything is #so she’d rather try scrape away indigenity from the people she cares about then accept it. because to her that means accepting #that they’re much more likely to die or experience considerable pain #she’s fascinating to me. you can love someone so much you wanna kill a huge part of them #make them walk around feeling a ghost #liz danvers #chief danvers #jodie foster #true detective #night country #true detective: night country #tw racism #tw violence #tw racially motivated violence #tw rape

Create your own ranking of Louis outfits!!!Louis always like to have a different outfit for every show, but each fan has favorite looks, so I thought it would be fun that everyone could do their own ranking for the first leg of the FITFWT (USA & Canada), I will do others versions in the future.

Instructions: you just have to access this link and start moving the photos in each category (if you are in mobile in your browser put the view as desktop site). When you are done you download the image and create your own post on tumblr sharing the image with the tag #louis tomlinson (maybe we can trend it?) you can also add the tag #rating louis outfits , don't forget to tag more people and link this post.

Some outfits they couldn't show that well because of the site, but in case you want so see more details, just check the name of the city and check this link for more photos.

It would be lovely to see everyone ranking of the outfits and I think is a fun game now that there is not a lot of things on the fandom. Please reblog this.

#please reblog this #it took me a lot to edit and it would be sad that it would flop lol #tag game #rating louis outfits #tier maker #if anyone has any questions send me an ask #if anyone has suggestions for better categories send me those as well #hltracks #usertomlinsonsource #louis tomlinson #edit: i change the header to match the europe one

(this is not about anyone in particular but i have encountered this argument alot too so i wanna say sth about it)

the thing that people like to use as an excuse to why totks story was so lackluster that they think of the gameplay first

but how is that an excuse for bad story and inconsistency with the game its supposedly a sequel too? does good gameplay suddendly mean that the story gotta be bad? they made it work just fine with botw, sure its got its problems and there are things that could have been better like in any game, but they made it work with the themes, it felt harmonical with the rest of it

yeah the story feels like an afterthought in totk, bc it probably was, but it didnt have to be, and not to toot my own horn here but thats what im trying to do with the rewrite, yes im including some wishes i have that would never be canon but this is ultimately wasted work im doing anyway, im restructuring the whole game bc i want it to be in tune with itself, i took the route of most changes bc its my little brainfart were i can make it into something i really want while using the real game as a basis, all that work is in vain anyway so why not go all out, but i have several ideas, some even written out, on how you could have made it better, sometimes with minimal changes even and even then, they dont matter, the game is done and higely successful, im just a random dude on the internet thats part of the 0.01% of fans that dont like it, im just insane enough (or autistic enough lol) to basically do game design and writing for an entire game IP i dont own and never will for a game thats already finished and wont change regardless of how much work i do or how much i yell about it

if you think its 'unfair' to the canon game bc some things are not doable (tho honestly given what they have already been able to do nintedny would absolutely be able to do everything im writing) or bc im changing so much then ok? if you think they had their reasons and thats ok with you then ok?

im not tho, and no i dont think they had a good reason nor good excuse to do it like this, thats my opinion anyway, and my opinion doesnt matter in the grant scheme of things

like you dont have to like anything i do with it, its not a demand of the devs, the games done already anyway and nothign will change that, im literally just making it into the sequel i would have loved, i would have wanted, i would think is better but thats just me, all of the work im doing for this project is an outlet for my frustration with the game that i cant let go bc i love the franchise, and most importantly botw, so much that i cant let it go

so if you dont like what im doing, thats fine, but move on then pls bc im not demanding anyone to like it and if you choose to engage with it despite not liking it thats not my fault now is it

and if you do like it i want to thank you for your support!! it means alot that maybe, even if its technically wasted work and time, its really not fully useless, if it can bring even one other person a little joy, thats a good engouh reason for me to keep posting it :3

#ganondoodles talks #zelda #totk #ganondoodles rants #also im makign the gameplay loop not all that different tbh #im changing alot but the real game is still the basis #also i find the argmuent funny that no one wants to have a zelda companion gltiching into a wall #when we have 5 silent ghost things gltiching all over the place while killing the frame rate but thats fine i guess lol #not being agressive either mind you #but again .. what harm am i doing #i doubt even a nintendos window cleaner has ever seen a single one of my posts nor cares about them

Since I always forget what tag to look up to find my own writing, I made this pinned post. Fandoms are listed in alphabetical order, and the individual fics in chronological order of when they were published. Original work is listed last. Only if it's relevant will I note if something hasn't been beta read, any romantic pairing(s), and significant content warnings.

Edit: Now contains links to silly meme/text post compilations! Currently only for Shepherds of Haven, but who knows, some may come for other fandoms in the future!

Ebon Light

Scarlet Hollow

Shepherds of Haven

The Best Proof of Love is Trust | tumblr post | Ao3 | rated G | 939 words | spoiler for the beginning of Chapter 3 (if you've played the public demo you're good) | content advisory: vaguely referenced suicidal thoughts | After Blade asks Kyrahlise if she's had 'nightmares' like that before, she remembers something her mother told her, and how that has guided her in the years since.

Original Stories

Hic et Nunc | tumblr post | Ao3 | rated M for mild sexual content | 1,069 words | Original Female Character/Original Non-Binary Character | An argument between a swordswoman and a mage leads to them working out some feelings they'd been skirting around. (Instead of getting fancy with a Latin title I could've just called it "Kris' first real attempt at writing sexual tension" lol!)

Meme / Text Post Compilations

Shepherds of Haven

Chase, Chase take 2 MC and "adventurous" Mages Like half of the Shepherds, lol

#btw if you read “Hic et Nunc” please let me know if you think the rating is accurate #I might have gone with a higher rating that it warrants and I keep waffling on changing the rating #not for the first time has it occurred to me I write a lot of introspection #so if you prefer to read action then my writing probably won't be your favorite #ebon light #scarlet hollow #shepherds of haven #shoh #original fiction #shoh memes #my writing #this has been sitting in my drafts for ages because I forgot about it lol

...just heard about the upcoming perk changes...hmm...yeah. the only good one definitely is the adrenaline nerf. I've wanted them to take away healing off hook forever.

the other perk changes are ass.

ultimate weapon is still outrageously unfair, even if you take away the screaming! to me, it feels like they just saw the uptick in people using calm spirit following the addition of ultimate weapon, and decided "hm, the way to deal with this is to remove the screaming." no! this perks needs to be reworked differently! given a longer cooldown, something! it does way too much for just one perk!

DS buff isn't going to stop tunnelling. strong killers don't care if you stun them, and weaker survivors likely won't even have DS because it's licensed...waste of a buff. just as they should do with off the record, they need to spread out these important anti-tunnel strategies to general perks. it's so unfair that something this important be gated behind a DLC. and no one perk should ever be too strong!

also, I saw otz's commentary on the changes. I could not agree more that certain killers should be nerfed directly, rather than trying to just balance perks generally. not all killers interact with different perks the same... nurse, wesker, huntress, blight, etc do not care about a stun, even if it's increased in length. you need to change them & how their powers work in relation to stuns, so survivors have a chance to get away from them, rather than buffing the perk so that old man ghostface has an even worse time in this dogshit meta lmao.

#dbd #thoughts about media #I haven't been on twitter in a while. I'm sure survivor mains are crying real hard about the adren nerf.#as if it was fair that the perk would heal you off hook like that. again: one perk should never do THAT much.#like. steve has a perk that heals you off hook. but it does ONLY that and you have to heal another survivor FIRST.#that feels fair! it does one thing and there's a trade-off! and the heal isn't immediate.#it's 16 seconds and then you heal. and you have base kit BT for 10 seconds to get away from the killer.#tbh- a slight buff to second wind would have been better than a DS buff. like. idk. reduce it to 12 seconds to heal off hook?#but second wind is a licensed perk again. so they should rather focus on making some general perk that does something like this instead.#there are sooo many survivor perks that are total dogshit and do nothing. including MANY general perks. REWORK THOSE!!!#I can't imagine this DS buff going to be a problem for hux because he's kind of a way more fair version of nurse.#he's very mobile. he just requires a lot more patience and skill to play.#I haven't seen anything about his planned changes yet. I'm hoping so badly that it will be a slight buff.#and by that I mean PLEASE MAKE SOMA FAMILY PHOTO BASE KIT!!!!!!#or even partially base kit!!! he should NOT be so dependent on one add on.#making it fully base kit wouldn't even be a problem because that would not impact kill rates at all.#this total hottie is only played by myself and a total of 5 other people worldwide.#making soma family photo isn't going to change that LOL.#like...some people might TRY him if he gets buffed. but I assure you- it would take a miracle to make more hux mains.

Hi!! I do plan on finishing it, I didn't draft it up way back in December to not see it through 😭😭

But my standards for the following pages were too high so they didn't get finished as soon as I wanted, and then I ended up super busy with other things for the next several months :'>

#its been a struggle ngl i'd be like #this sketch is great #(line art destroys my life)#actually this line art is great #(coloring destroys my life)#actually the colors are okay #(shading absolutely destroyed my life i dont like it)#so that was where I left off :'D #i want to fix it so bad but looking at it i rlly didnt know where to start... and if every following page gives me the sake issue then #something in my process has to change #same issue oops typo #i need to like... not clean up every single step i feel #gotta accept that sketchy/not fully rendered things are fine #bc at this rate i get burned out just thinking about how to composition things 😭😭#i was supposed to be done with the whole thing by now :'>

Updating roughly 2x a week - my ongoing Rolan x Geraldus romance fic. :)

Featuring: Grumpy wizards falling for sweet sad boys, Geraldus getting a job at a bookstore, probably too much poetry, slow burn romance, Rolan not being very good at having feelings, everyone rightly thirsting after Geraldus a bit, lots and lots of tiefling sibs.

#fic link #bg3 geraldus #bg3 rolan #harper geraldus #rolan #geraldus x rolan #rolan x geraldus #bg3 #geraldus #bg3 fic #ao3 fanfic #my fic #roaving stuff #chekovs 'rating may change' tag has been fired #the harper and the tower #holy rolan empire #baldur's gate 3

Planes fly smoother in Hope County now.

Not better, though 😅

#I tested the 60 fps boost #glad to see nothing else has changed haha #far cry 5 #in all seriousness the game really is smoother #but frame rate isn’t my biggest concern honestly #my video #so as predicted we got this boost #and a discount on the game and collapse #and a free weekend soon #are we getting the other things I said we would probably get?#what do you think is coming next?

having a society that is so hellbent on the idea that “gaining weight=bad, losing weight=good” without any nuance makes it. fucking impossible. to bring up lost weight as a sign of Something Bad Going On

#which is. not to get too personal but ive lost an abnormal amount in only a month.#nothing i’ve been doing has changed. but it just vanished. and my body doesn’t do that.#i know my body i’ve lived in it for two decades i know how to live in it. it doesn’t do this.#but bring that up to anyone in my family and they just go :) oh but you’ve lost weight. it’s so much better for you now.#GIRL SOMETHING IS WRONG. god.#😔 never be a bear at this rate lol #vent
