Just like any other authoritarian state
Most of government agencies are errors themselves
[flagged]
When China is more open than you, you've got a problem
Quite an interesting fact that both committed victimless crimes and both were victims of exceptional prosecution
Grossly excessive sentences for non-victim crimes while letting rapists, murderers and corrupt politicians go free with at best a slap on the wrist, is why people are abandon your "holy religion" in droves
Money is not created through fractional reserve banking. Money is loaned into existence by commercial banks. Similarly Coinbase can sell you coins which don't exist. Like a bank it doesn't have to make good on this IOU…
The author admitted in her opening that she doesn't understand the point of decentralization. Reading anything beyond that point is a waste of time.
Vaccines are not magic. Every treatment has potential downsides. That's why they need approval to weight the potential benefit/harm trade-off.
As opposed to what? Twitter? All social media platforms are ideologically moderated.
This is just the same old keynesian fallacy. You can only consume if you produce. If we produce nothing it doesn't matter how much money we have. There is nothing to consume.
That's absurd. If a baker sells bread to a democrat politician it means he supports the Democratic party?
Nobody says that. All KNOWN future events are priced in. We are not doing divination here.
Does your circle of friends exactly match the general population demographics? No? You're a racist! See how absurd your expectations are?
You're wrong. Bonds protect against depression and index-linked bonds protect against stagflation.
Politics doesn't select for altruism. Politics requires lying, bribing and stealing so it's no wonder the very scum of the earth ends up in positions of power (same for most NGOs executives BTW). Power corrupts, so you…
I find this problem to be overblown. I've met dozens of dirty coders who happily copy-paste code without a single thought for maintainability and their colleagues. I've yet to meet a single clean code zealot. It's…
Clearly false as there is no regulation to prevent the formation of very large companies (anti-trust laws don't apply). In fact companies tend toward giant behemoths in part BECAUSE of government regulation. Small…
Do yourself a favour and open a history book.
Yes and he acknowledges that by saying they are "really HARD" to find. Clearly after 25 years in the industry he didn't wait for you to point out that reliable talented artists don't usually come cheap. He's simply…
I started reading his sample chapter on refactoring and I'm constantly put off by some really rookie mistakes and bad code practices like naming a function after nouns instead of action verbs (e.g. "amountFor" instead…
Something made of straws comes to mind.
That's the point. A serf didn't have to prove his worth. An employee does.
Somehow I don't think you know much about medieval serfdom. While the serf was not allowed to leave neither was the lord allowed kick the serf out of his land. The only way the lord could "fire" a serf was to sell the…
There is never going to be enough information and no matter how you slice the data you have it will always be arbitrary and biased. This whole debate is silly.
