  • How long it lasts as a usable token of trade

    So it’s still worthless. Genuinely, what can a penny purchase? A nickel? A dime? None of these coins can buy something individually, and a large chunk of the population doesn’t carry them because the utility they gain for having exact change is less than the coins are worth

    To be clear, I understand the coins vs. bills argument, but I’m personally in favor of cutting all coins up to the quarter. Or cutting all coins except dimes and half dollars, but dimes are annoying coins

    People always remark how /r/relationshipadvice tells everyone to break up without considering 2 self selection biases:

    1. People in happy healthy relationships don’t ask for a lot of advice. “I love my wife, we go on weekly dates, have couples therapy, are helping each other in our careers and our sex has never been better. Wat do?” is not something people will post
    2. If you go to a drama discussion, shockingly, more dramatic content gets more attention. More drama in relationships almost always leads to" just stop dealing with it and break up" as advice
