The most important digital currencies are those that empower to the people. Not fund wars and beaurocracies.
In their defense, i couldnt communicate what was wrong with me well.
Health system is a joke and still incapable of dealing with global catastrophes.
Its scary as fuck and may none of you ever need this.
Israel is VERY uptight about its airspace and the drones here are basically sharks with lasers.
Good luck, comrad.
Truly awe inspiring on a grand scale. Its no wonder the ancient greeks attributed gravity to Aphrodite‘s magic .. i honestly find it so fitting; its love all the way down!
The same to our legislative bodies, human society is having an anally retentive crises when it comes to technology. The system’s chocked and cant function well.
Not saying its bad, just saying they wont do it. Theyre already rich beyond imagining- sadism and abuse are rampant, and the public doesnt seem to care.
Like seriously, how much cash will it take to convince the saudis to go ceremonial? Meanwhile another gay person is hung and a dissident is assassinated. That all said .. seems to be what the region “wants” - displeasure isnt high enough yet for regular folk to demand change.
In arabic there is a saying “the people earn the ruler they deserve”.
Beyond the short term moral qualm .. its just a step in the development of these countries - it could - and i was - worse. Better wiser days will come.
Being exposed to the atrocities of /most/ (im no expert) modern day monarchs and being an arab in the middle east, i find it REALLY hard to call what they do cute, or something math and money could fix. These problems, even dänmarks, evolved through strife, injustice and corruption.
Monarchies are necessary as-long as the region needs them .. i see politics more like an evolutionary process where monarchy is part of a nations dev stages.
I actually wish you were right.
Aaaah. What a world...
Its actually how inbelieve Elon got successful .. its his physics training.
Ive met physics students in higher semesters ... and they were down right better programmers too (thry built things they used, they really hacked programs together) while we spent our time trying to ... well i dont know what, but somethig wasnt right. This wasnt CS50 though .. just a German uni.
I even treat my own gmail account with resignation these days.
My Picasa, my rss, my google chat.
Am i wrong to have never touched these cloud services?
I prefer dedicated servers even over AWS, too.
Edit: spellink
Edit2: people downvoting me to hell .. i have to defend my internet points a bit here ..
How should i treat these google services if not with this nihilism? Amazon isn't killing products.
Ill admit to liking kube, but mostly because its open source and “out there” where no one can kill it. Google publishing stuff thats 100% in its control sends a shiver down my long-term-service thinking. Add “Fleets” to it and i get a sense of dread at the thought.
They still take a bite or two on occasion.. it itches for less than an hour (worst was a week before did this ..) but not like before - its as if they let me be after i let them be.
There seems to be a strange relationship between prey and predator we still haven't understood that yet.
Its all our doing. We will bear the brunt, if not the responsibility. I think some of us will survive whats coming .. most, i fear, wont.
