118·13 days ago“During October, we have seen that search traffic has dropped by more than 1 million referrals on average per week. If this rate of decline continues, current trends would suggest that total DAUqs [or daily active unique users] could fall in Q4, by a low-double-digit percentage from our current base of 130 million DAUqs,” Huffman wrote.
Weird that not allowing people to use your site would lower the number of people using your site.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What minimum amount of money in your bank account would make you feel comfortable never working again?English
7·16 days agoYou’re gonna have to check your math, homie. $1,000 a day is $365,000 a year. With $2,000,000 in the bank, you’d need a return of 18.25%. That’s not a high interest savings account. That’s investing heavily in risky stocks and getting lucky every time for the rest of your life.

2·16 days agoYeah we’re in a similar boat. I think our healthcare system (or lack of one) is very much designed to keep people working longer and also to work for corporations, rather than striking out on their own.
If it weren’t for healthcare, I’d consider downsizing and retiring right now. But as is, probably going to have to work for another 20 years.

Yeah, I think not sounding gross or dangerous is part of it - combined with the skill level. Personally, my in-laws encouraged my nephew not to go to college, but instead to become a welder - or an electrician as a backup plan.
He did neither and now works for the city cleaning sewers. It’s a needed job and pays ok, but no one ever says “you don’t need to go to college, you can clean a sewer.” It’s always “you can be a welder.”
I understand that welding takes skill. But I’m more wondering why I’ve personally talked to several parents/grandparents with kids about to graduate highschool with poor grades - and nearly everyone of those people has said that college isn’t the right choice for their kid, so they’re going to go into the trades and become a welder.
So far, none of the kids I’m referring to have actually become a welder. Are those family members saying their kid is going to become a welder because of the skill involved at the highest level of the craft? Is welding the blue collar equivalent of becoming an artist?
