And over twice the GDP.

That's...pretty believable.

The amount of money you save (and invest) isn't accurately depicted with this though. Living expenses don't necessarily grow with take home, if you keep lifestyle creep to a minimum.

So what this means is that if you make $100k and save $10k/year, if you start making $200k you can save the same $10k/year, plus the entire additional $100k after taxes (let's just say that's $50k+). So you doubled your salary but your savings went up 6x+.

Not sure why you're saying Python forces everything to be object oriented...?

Wouldn't 25 year olds still be in school for their doctorates though?

Yes, I think that's the point


they skew the numbers upwards.

I particularly like the truck/engine correction.

One thing to keep in mind


the US is huge, both geographically and culturally. Flying from Los Angeles to Boston is further than London to Baghdad.

And likewise, the cultural "distance" between, say, New England or the Pacific Northwest and the deep south is extreme.

Of course there are things that affect (nearly) all Americans, but some context is important.

But this applies to the UK, Ireland, France, Belgium, Italy, Spain, Portugal, and...well...much of the world, if these data are to be trusted.

But "included" doesn't mean free. You still paid for it.

I'm curious how the battery percentage went up

Physicists hate this one weird trick...

Exactly. And it includeded a 500GB m2 (SATA, not NVME, but still), with a spare m2 slot available. As opposed to an SD slot + USB port...

Dual gigabit NICs and importantly can be configured to boot after power loss (which the pi of course also does).

And Intel QuickSync may not be perfect but it is well supported with mainline kernels.

Only drawback is that it draws a few extra watts compared to the Pi.
