So your take is that every government is always right, did I understand you correctly?

Another year, another “the end of crypto” craze.

That’s not correct. But assuming it is, how far are you willing to go? Skin color? Family education? Neighborhood a person grew up in? Gene defects? There are billions of reasons why two people are not completely equal.

In the end, you need 999 bureaucrats to make sure one person get equity.

One reason why communist countries are poor. Nobody produces things because everybody in working in the administration of equity.

And in the end, everybody is poor.

Yep, correct.

Would be interesting to hear if other countries have similar word games?

Careful, “equity” is not equality. “Equity” requires racism and exclusion.

Sounds like a good deal. And plenty of time to find a new position if he wants to stay in Canada.

Another year, another “the end of crypto” prediction. Oh well.

I think it depends a lot where an exchange is located, if the place has rule of law and proper supervision for financial service providers. Also, if an exchange has properly regulated external audits.

So the endless wars will continue. Oh well, if that’s what the people want. At least we had 4 years with no new wars.

GP already told you why not.

Is creating a false “Musk” account to spam people with some shitcoin “parody”? Is creating a fake Musk account to post hatefull shit under his name “parody”?

What is up with the New Left and this total absence of reason and ethics?

Actual parody is completely okay and NOT banned (unlike it was on Old Twitter).

Plus, they know what videos generate more ad revenue. The user making up their own mind just interferes with that ad impression optimisation.

You are not the customer.

YouTube tells YOU what video to watch when.

That sounds more like the current state of scientific research.

How so? Because they buy software?

You think those rockets fly remote controlled?

That would be really cool, but probably still a while before that actually works on a large scale. Let alone before the Tesla robot actually works. I am less optimistic about the time it takes to develop it.

How is identity theft or impersonation “comedy“? Are all the crypto spammers “comedy” for you? Why not stay real and stop all the hate?

No, Tesla and SpaceX. Plus Neuralink, but Musk isn’t involved in the operations there.

He’s running two of the world’s most successful software companies right now.

No. And Musk already said so. What’s the intention of the FUD?

You stay home then. I’d go (if I worked at Tw).

Remote work is about the only thing where I very much disagree with Musk. I get it for engineering physical things. But not for web software. In that area, remote works much better than in-office, at least for me.

That sounds pretty good. Even better than good.

Apparently, the same is happening right now in Maricopa County. Ballots being collected and shipped to “counting facilities”.

So why does a millionaire in Turkey get it for $4 while a homeless American single mother has to pay $20? How is that “fair”? It’s just racism.

Pricing isn’t about “fair”, pricing is about an offer’s utility to the buyer in relation to the financial abilities of the buyer. Anything else will sooner or later fail, and sometimes cause extreme damage while falling.

Another aspect I don’t get is, why are voted in the U.S. shipped to central counting facilities, instead of counting decentralized in each voting station?

Not sure if it’s common in the U.S. I just remember the videos from that Detroit counting centre (the one where they tapped over the windows, so observers couldn’t look inside).

Serious question: why not count them manually?

Foreign investment, technology transfer, and trade did. Which is why safe international trade routes and open markets are so important.
