Every job is solving problems of some kind or another. Look at the individual postings and as you're writing this ask yourself: does what I'm writing yell them how I'm going to solve the problems that this job needs solved?

That's what people mean when they talk about selling yourself. That's how you get someone's attention. Look at the job posting, make a hypothesis based on available evidence, and use the job posting to tailor a cover letter for that positon.

Pm me if you feel like ripping your hair out and putting a whole in the wall with your face. Which I often did. I can try and help. Though there are probably better options

Is there a place to put comments like this? Some kind of "how to lose an argument" community?

If you disagree with the numbers you can argue them coherently. Like, that's how facts work. If there are issues with the data you make a compelling argument by pointing them out. Data doesn't give a fuck about your feelings, refusing to contribute meaningfully to the argument doesn't make you superior, it makes you look like an idiot, and doubling down on your refusal to engage meaningfully with the content makes you look even dumber.

You have time to hand wave away shit you don't agree with but don't have time to make.a cogent argument? You're too good for.it.all when you're called out for it? Is it maybe because.you don't understand economics?

Because I sure as fuck don't. But I do understand that its a real academic.discipline that involves lots of real math that I also.don't understand. And while I take most.of what I read on the internet with a grain of salt people in this thread that do appear to understand some of those things are indicating this Dara is likely correct. And those arguing that it isnt don't appear to be able to articulate why.

So my own conclusion is that there's probably.something to this. But it doesnt really matter if there is or isnt, really, because I'll never do anything with the info. Still, I choose to see this as a glimmer of.hope in troubling times.

Although if you are able to articulate your "all economics.is bullshit" theory, I'm pretty sure the many many doctorate holders in economics would love to have you destroy their field of study. You could usher in a revolution in economics. You could create whole new academic.disciplines, and do to.economics.what the scientific method did to natural.philosophy. In that case, don't you have an intellectual duty to lay out.your argument?

Unless of course its just hand waving bullshit.

Get he out lest he be ready to drop to your knees and gibe praise to the righteous AUR as it doth demand.
