notcrazylol commented on Tariffs result in 10% laptop price hike in U.S. says Acer CEO   tomshardware.com/laptops/... · Posted by u/pseudolus

So if people buy an acer laptop, acer makes more profit? Quick math - if a laptop is retailing for 1000 and acer makes it for 500(just a random number), due to the tariffs, acer has to pay 550(10% extra) to bring it to the US and now sells it for 1100 due to 10% hike?

profit before = 1000-500 = 500 profit now = 1100 - 550 = 550

So the company is making more profit from you now? What am I missing?

This goes back to the goals vs systems debate that Scott Adams talks about in one of his books. Over a long period of time, systems improve your life in compound.

> Nobody says we have to be good at everything we do

This is advice I have to push on my kids constantly, because they are obsessed with finding that one thing they are better than everyone else in the world.

"Do some" is not advice I got as a kid, but my mom eventually figured it out and told me that when was in my mid 20s or something.

Her words (from Malayalam) are best translated as "For whom a little is not enough, nothing is ever enough".

I think that's true for everything from money to self-worth. Enough is too hard to have.

Damn this is soo cool! I tried it at a random place and it worked like magic! But when I tried it near my house, the website broke :D I think it doesn't handle unidentified rivers.

Its kinda funny looking at it from another country. Before Trump was president, anyone who associated with Trump was labelled every bad word in the dictionary - racist, sexist, etc. If you had said you voted for Trump and supported Trump, you would lose your job - example being the Trumps administration's Publicist(? I dont know the exact job description). She had to disassociate with Trump so that she could be hired elsewhere.

Now since he won the election and the tides have turned, these very people who labelled others and fired people who sided with Trump, when faced with the same issue are making this a big issue. US media and the people there are something else lol.

Also if you guys had the same scrutiny for all the other presidents, your country would have been better. A person who said "okay" to bomb 8 countries and receive a Nobel peace prize? Well played.
