It's all a policy choice, though. The USA could, for example, increase property taxes on non-primary homes and offset investor losses by adding an incentive to sell non-primary residences for some length of time (say, 2…
That seems to be the sentiment based on our founding origins or if you talk to an individual, but the fact is that we imprison more people per capita than anyone else. It's hard for me to believe that all of the…
Generally speaking, low unemployment leads to the Fed raising rates, the anticipation of which, hurts stock prices.
Similar story here. I've been remote for 9 years. I don't live that far from a minor tech hub, but it would still be an hour commute each way. Housing here is below the national average, so there is a huge savings…
I think the experience just isn't mainstream enough. I think there are a lot of people that would drop $200-$300 to get a beat sabre experience if they were aware of the option. Is there any reason it should be less…
Any solution here is just an arms race. The better AI's get at generating text, the more impossible the job of identifying if an AI was responsible for writing a given text sample.
Yes.

I put a 20% downpayment on my house and it involved a wire transfer that was scheduled for days in the future that required my physical presence at a centralized authority (bank). With Bitcoin, that process takes less…
It would mostly be for primaries, where the field is wider, but don't discount how ranked choice voting could lead to more than 2 viable parties.
If the government wanted to help people do taxes more easily, they would just simplify taxes. Lobbies (from TurbTax and competitors) are standing in the way.
It seems likely to me that the cap will just be expanded at some point, but that is likely tens of years away and its expansion will likely be equal to or less than the replacement value of lost coins.
The reduction of a technical problem to a word problem is the application of years of accumulated knowledge, including, in many cases, Computer Science concepts.
I understand the attitude that this isn't a new phenomenon, but degrees can't be ignored. The labor force participation rate has been consistently falling for a long time (at least 20 years) in the USA…
Opting out would then require trusting an organization who is incentivized to collect data to not collect it. That can't be the solution.
Idea: since abstractions like functions exist in order to help you prevent bugs in sufficiently complex systems being manipulated iteratively, is the problem not that testing for correctness is bad form, but that the…
"seeking political power through control of institutions" seems entirely subjective. Why is someone on the far left running for office doing this moreso than a libertarian?
Odd, that's not my impression. Seems like the center (on both sides) and non-libertarian right want to see him in jail.
Chrome's primary competition wasn't FireFox as they've never been anything close to a market leader. My post was about what features led to Chrome gaining such high market share, and their default privacy settings were…
That's fine also, but I don't think they're mutually exclusive. If lax laws have allowed monopolies to take hold, then the job of the government is to protect consumers by creating a free market - and that may mean…
For non-technical users: faster pages, account syncing, google name recognition and default searching. For technical users: V8, dev tools, better privacy, evergreen, frequent updates, tabs as processes, fast…
Making anonymous trades is a legitimate use case, even if we understand that it would be an attractive option for black markets.
A correction - bitcoin is not anonymous enough to enable any of the use cases you mentioned. But that misses the points - tools can't be blamed for secondary use cases - do you blame physical dollars for enabling child…
Why do you believe that corporations employ lobbyists? Why do you believe that corporations make campaign contributions? We can imagine that Congress could be composed of members spanning the normal human gamut of…
