googletazer··on What's So Dangerous About Psychology Professor Jordan Peterson?
There is absolutely nothing dangerous about Peterson. The perceived danger is that once unpopular ideas/thoughts are discussed in the marketplace of ideas, so to speak, and that they might win out. I'd much rather ideas that promote inhumanity be discussed in the open that driven underground and allowed to fester there.

Better drugs/more complex medicines should be possible. Chemical interactions are hard to do on classical computers (operating on 5D+ arrays), true quantum computers should be able to help with those computations.

googletazer··on Is Bitcoin a Bubble? Economists Say ‘Yes’
You don't understand how trading bitcoin works. Trading is not done on the chain, its the centralized exchanges which keep the books. Its instantaneous, with people who are involved in arbitrage between the exchanges keeping the prices level across all.
googletazer··on Whale Watching: Many companies earn a huge portion of sales from a few customers
>We provide huge rewards to a small number of people but why?

Thats what I asked you. How many indie authors have you supported by buying their books and spreading the wealth. Or do you have a better way to spread the wealth apart from the government taking it by force from whatever class it deems as enemies of the people this week?

Its more along the lines of - whose tea and coffee did they pour salt in?

Its incredible that for a tech related site like HackerNews so many here are salty about people getting wealthy off technology.

googletazer··on Whale Watching: Many companies earn a huge portion of sales from a few customers
>For example: good for Rowling but why aren't more authors able to make a living writing?

Because consumers don't like them as much. The market increasingly is a winner take all, moving away from the 20%-80% split. How many books did you buy this year? How many were from indie/unknown authors?

What does "justify" mean here? Are you somehow saying its not fair that early adopters have a lot of coins?

>But the 20% that don't, I flip them off every time, since they fucking deserve it.

You're a prime candidate for anger management classes. If you get so stressed over something that minor, better get good insurance for your cardio problems later on.

LOL
googletazer··on The Bitcoin Whales: 1,000 People Who Own 40 Percent of the Market
I mean those two have pretty clear risks as well. Morality might moderate people's primal feelings but they are even better moderated by understanding opportunity - costs of the actions. Nevertheless, there is nothing inherently "bad" about "negative" feelings. They just tell you something isn't going right and you have to fix it. How you do that - is up to you.
googletazer··on The Bitcoin Whales: 1,000 People Who Own 40 Percent of the Market
Yup, every armed robbery is a brain deciding that it can take stuff by force instead of making/creating/exchanging it.
googletazer··on The Bitcoin Whales: 1,000 People Who Own 40 Percent of the Market
They could have been doing something else with their time. Instead they were mining, promoting, and trading this technology. By definition there is an opportunity cost to being an early adopter instead of going with the flow - so indeed they took a risk.

Upset/uncomfortable - maybe, but at who? The rich family? His own family? Himself? Society? All of those?

People on hackernews and in general tend to view "negative" feelings, envy, etc... as generically "bad". These feelings are evolutionary signals from your primal brain that something isn't going right. Its up to you to fix that, however you see fit.
