Depends on the specific situation. Sometimes it is a damn good idea.
You can charge them with murder all you like, but while brandishing as control is considered standard police practice, you will find it almost impossible to prove any intent.
It may not be ideal, but individuals who amass power and then override other's collective judgement is a large part of how our society behaves.
Some politicians are guilty of mass murder and war crimes under exactly the circumstance you give. And part of the reason those from more powerful countries are not charged is they have made every effort to put…
The universe where someone else intentionally coerced badly trained and overarmed idiots into being there and made them think they might be shot at.
They both killed the guy. The guy lied with the intent to get heavily armed people to point guns at someone. Anyone who does this and tries to claim that they couldn't possibly know that the risk is deadly, is either…
If your retirement fund isn't leaving money on the table, then it is probably not going to be there when you retire.
Why?
Making the Japanese and Nigerian elite look bad, could be a large part of the intent here. That $76M might mainly be a political comment. In perspective, oil and gas companies spend more than double that lobbying the US…
The emotional reaction isn't wasted bandwidth. Consider; "Get some water now, please.", when compared to; "Get some fucking water now!". One of these will usually elicit a much quicker reaction.
They are, on the second hand market.
I come from somewhere where the opposite of that is the dominant culture, so I was explaining Crocker's rules as a method of us pointing out to each other when we are not capable of operating by them, rather than when…
It isn't about calling someone a moron, it is about being able to respond, "Thanks, I can be fucking stupid at times, can you show me where I am being moronic here?". It is also about being able top unguard your own…
More Silicon Glen, if you really care about origin stories. My family tends to conduct a lot of discussion at full volume with lots of swearing, so being able to say, 'fuck off, not playing by Crocker's rules', is…
I showed 'Crockers Rules', after Lee Daniel Crocker, to my mum and my sister over Christmas, as I thought it might help all of us indicate the level of acerbic comment we are currently able to process. "Declaring…
Leave them on random people's voicemail, probably.
I dunno, it seems fairly sane to stand first in places you are guaranteed not to win, if you want to get started in politics. Lowest risk method of getting experience and people are impressed if you poll anything at all.
If blockchain based currencies prove themselves to be a significant improvement on current monetary systems then state currencies, such as the US dollar, will adopt the new technology, as they have done with all other…
It may attempt to trend towards the dollar over time, but will it be trending that way during the time that you personally need it? "The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent", springs…
Do you mean anomie? I know a few Kropotkin fans who are fairly certain that they want anarchy.
Governments undermining their own monetary systems is hardly novel, both for stupid reasons and occasionally for clever ones. Governments often implement new economic systems or currencies, with fairly mixed results.
Governments are not superhuman either. I am not talking specifically about the difficulty of writing bitcoin, but the collection of circumstances along side that.
That was an attempt at it, though one made in bad faith by many of the leading proponents. If you are genuinely making something obsolete, you don't usually need to go to the bother of banning it.
Satoshi worked online with a group of developers for more than a year while keeping perfect operational security. Developed a solution to the byzantine generals problem, but has no published maths papers, otherwise…
The only 'solution' I can see to this problem, is to develop an alternative to the floating monetary unit, of solving the calculation of exchanging goods and labour. Money is useful, because it solves for the 'n' of a…
