In college I took an electrical engineering exam late for some reason (excused) and a buddy had wrote down the 6 questions from when he took it and gave them to me. I studied using them thinking the test would be similar but with different questions. It wasn’t! Anyways I TRIED to make a mistake on purpose and somehow still got a 100%. I was sweating bullets until that semester was over. Never fly that close to the sun folks!

u/general-illness 1 6 hours ago

u/citizen42069101 1 7 hours ago

At face value the day of, like this is more of a feel than a thermometer, for lack of a better analogy. Is it hot or cold? Every month theyre revised as more numbers come in, i e the thermometer and you get a better idea. I just like numbers tbh and dont know the timelines of revisions and presidential terms who had the least revisions. But 4 numbers coming in perfectly (per estimate) when theres a grease fire going on is..peculiar.

Bad news, TVs are *also* up. A year ago I was shopping for a new TV for us, now we’re shopping for a new TV for my better half’s mother. We’ve almost reached the “Does Nana *really* need a TV?” point due to these prices.

u/Jaybru17 1 6 hours ago

Got it so everything but consumer electronics (don’t look at hard drives) is more expensive than 20 years ago Sweet

u/MrNo_Balls 1 6 hours ago

all PCs, Laptops and Phones are more expensive. Especially If we take into account that these electronics tended to become cheap a few years after release.

u/Jaybru17 1 6 hours ago

Many TVs are also cheap because they’re filled to the brim with advertisements and sell your data

u/JohnPaulDavyJones 1 7 hours ago

Ah, now I’m with it. It tracks really long-run data that stops at 2023. I’ve only got data points from now and a year ago, so pretty short-run and also after that graph was created.

u/Butthole--pleasures 1 6 hours ago

One anecdote. This year I bought a TV. Something budget and Samsung but not the cheapest. First time I ever get a tv without an optical audio port. I couldn't believe I now have to make sure this is included. Also, when I went to research which tvs had optical or not, I also looked at the high end options. Those TVs seem way more expensive than what I remember seeing back then for similar tier.

u/atomatoflame 1 6 hours ago

Optical is an easy thing to cut now with HDMI ARC and Bluetooth. A cheaper TV will probably omit it nowadays. Like 3.5mm jacks on a phone, I think optical is toast in the near future.

u/RationalGardenGnome 1 6 hours ago

HDMI Arc is a way better that’s why. Dear god you sound like an old man

u/Butthole--pleasures 1 6 hours ago

I have a soundbar and the only connection besides optical is Bluetooth. Sometimes there have been issues with the connection dropping. An optical has never had that issue. Everything else is on HDMI arc young man

u/RationalGardenGnome 1 6 hours ago

Haha okay fair!

u/bigsmithe05 1 7 hours ago

Interestingly enough all of those things that have skyrocketed over the years are subsidized by the government and all the items that are controlled essentially by the free market are way cheaper.

u/Long-Blood 1 7 hours ago

Another way of looking at it is all of the things that are cheaper can be made overseas...

u/Dry_Fly_7265 1 6 hours ago

Also “elective” vs necessities

u/IdkAbtAllThat 1 5 hours ago

A more accurate way of looking at it is that everything can be made cheaper overseas. Not just cheap things. China is building electric cars that blow American offerings out of the water.

u/IdkAbtAllThat 1 5 hours ago

Now let China sell cars here.

u/Sea-Feedback-2424 1 6 hours ago

Its also just absurd to compare a CRT to a 4k flat screen lcd. We should compare.something reasonable that hasn't changed much over time like I can buy 1 tulip for roughly 2 guilder where as 400 years ago it cost 10.000 builders (not adjusted for inflation) for 1. So clearly we are better off.

u/dudeondacouch 1 7 hours ago

what? TVs are dirt cheap. you can walk into walmart and leave with a 65" 4k tv for under $300.

u/Sea-Feedback-2424 1 6 hours ago

While technically true, 20 years ago TVs didn't have advertisements and couldn't be bricked remotely.

u/dudeondacouch 1 6 hours ago

you know you don't *have* to connect your tv to the internet, right?

Really?? I think you should be asking if Nana really needs a 70" OLED. Because you can find her a 50" 4k at Walmart for under $200.

u/BigBastardHere 1 6 hours ago

Televisions are only cheap because they arent the product anymore. You are the product. They need/want to get them in your home. Data and advertisements built into the TV.

It’s exhausting. Have one with twins on the way and daycare is going to run $54k/year. The next year and a half (the amount of time we will have 3 in daycare) is going to be brutal and I’m struggling to figure out where the funds are going to come from without touching my 401k. Everything is beyond expensive right now.

u/InclementBias 1 6 hours ago

This is one I've come to terms with. I want the daycare facilities to be clean and safe, and I want the people watching my kids for 40 hours a week to be paid a living wage so they do a good job and care about my kids.

u/Papa_tankz 1 6 hours ago

I agree but it’s also unaffordable - it needs to be subsidized and the tax deductions are LAUGHABLE. I’m talking $500 credit laughable.

u/InclementBias 1 6 hours ago

One of my affordability plays would be to stop giving every tax break to seniors and to instead focus on things like childcare, given this age group is also burdened with feeding into the social security system that the boomers also pull from. We invest a lot in the past and very little in the future.

u/ThatStrangeGuyOverMe 1 6 hours ago

But you do realize the caretaker to child ratio is not 1:1, and it's not even 3:1. The caretakers at these places make at best that 54K/year this one guy is paying into that daycare (which likely has 20-40 children). You can achieve both probability and employee QoL/Living Wages, without charging the obsense amounts they charge today.

u/InclementBias 1 6 hours ago

If you look into the operating costs of these facilities, you will see where the costs you're paying are going. It's not just to the salaries of the staff.

There was a time where the country would freak out over 3.4% YOY inflation, but now this is good news? The market has lost the plot.

The chief economist kpmg had some line to end her comment on Julys cpi “I will repeat what I said in this month’s edition of Economic Compass. I have never seen anything like this economy; nor had the Fed. It is in a word a “mess” to untangle.”

EVERYTHING IS TOTALLY FINE HERE. THE ECONOMY IS VERY STRONG AND VERY HEALTHY. DO NOT SELL EVERYTHING. BUY MORE SHARES IMMEDIATELY. YOU WILL DEFINITELY NOT REGRET BUYING MORE SHARES.

I distinctly remember 18 months ago the sale on flavored tuna packs at target being buy 5 for $4 when they were on sale. Normal price was ¢99 each. Monday I was looking at them sad as I bought them for $1.69 each. Not even a month ago they were $1.49 each. There is just no way CPI is that low.

These numbers are completely meaningless. Americans trust two things when shopping: their eyes and their receipt. They certainly shouldn’t trust institutions that manipulate and revise data.

Why do y'all think that CPI being 70% higher than target rate means that someone is cooking the books? Also, the data for this is publicly available and has been back tested in the past by economists. It would be insanely difficult to actually cook the books for CPI.
