Big commercial airplanes basically already fly themselves. But people feel safer with pilots on board just in case, I don’t think that’s going to change.
Far from a silver bullet, but still exciting as the first medicine of its kind! Accidental exposure happens to pretty much everyone with food allergies, so reducing the risk of anaphylaxis by ~70% is huge and will save lives.
Have you found value out of this? I just consider cash spent as soon as I withdraw it, as far as the budget goes. Tracking small change sounds tedious and seems line it wouldn’t provide value, but so I’m curious to hear if you think differently.
I do the same as you. I used to attempt to track cash spending but I found that if I wasn't tracking it within 24 hours of it being spent, I probably wasn't categorizing it correctly anyway.
Since my cash expenditures represent well under 1% of my total spending, it wasn't worth tracking in detail.
I used to do this but I started tracking change separately because I want to track budget categories exactly but I also don’t want to have to count a bunch of change every time I reconcile my cash account. The change account is only tracked automatically, it would be too tedious to do manually.
I used to toss coins in the bin. Time spent accounting for then (Where are they now and how much is it, how much more do i need?) cost more time then their value. Now I live somewhere where some merchants only accept cash, so I save them again. It's a hassle though.
I’ve found it to be incredibly useful. And prior to that I used ledger for a few years. Ledger was great, but personally I find YNAB to be more useful because the budgeting features are the focus, not the accounting.
> All they build are really the buildings that are meant to store value for foreign investors, typical open plan offices or warehouses.
Offices and warehouses is not what I expected to follow the first part of that sentence… office and warehouses are pretty productive! And likely a better use of space in a dense urban environment than a manufacturing facility.
The infrastructure is aimed at IT or any "bum on the seat" type of business were only tools that are required to do the work are a laptop and a phone.
But, if you, for instance want to do some light manufacturing - like making electronic devices, you are out of luck. In theory, you could do that kind of work in an office, but when estate agent hears about "soldering iron" or "ultrasonic cleaner" they nope out.
