    The weirdest thing is it didn’t seem to start out that way. I remember the first season actually having strong jokes. I specifically remember one about spherical chickens that was truely hilarious because it was a nerd joke on a prime time tv show. Then came season two, with it the show tried to become more relatable to the ‘average viewer’ and it was just bullying on TV.

    You get it. Pushing AMPs is just a voltage significantly higher than the voltage required to jump a gap, or short a circuit, ect. Depending on your application. I like to think of it as a water slide, the source is the high end, the circuit is the slid, and the sink is the bottom of the slide and pushing AMPs is attaching a comic book villan’s version of a pump big enough to drain all the water from the ocean.

    In long term they do have to bring some profit, otherwise they’re net negative to society.

    You did, pretty succinctly. Profit is financial profit, that’s it’s definition. I think you mean a benefit which may or may not be profitable. Social services are beneficial to society, not always profitable.

    Not everything in society needs to be profitable. Elder care is extremely unprofitable to society, they’ve already provided all the profit they can, now they’re just an expense on society. So why don’t we just drop them off in the middle of nowhere and let the animals eat them like a dying farm cat? It actually works out better because their kids can inherit the parents wealth without the parents using all that money to live through their retirement. The kids can take it the moment their parents are retired and immediately invest it. It’s way better for the economy because you won’t have a retirement investment that slowly dwindles until it’s gone. It’s a sudden infusion of cash that will pay way more dividends over time.
