If i wanted to claim this article were propaganda, I would use this detail as evidence in favor
A significant number of videos are disabled from embedded play
Fees businesses charge will be a nonissue when businesses are unable to operate in California
Regulation increases the barrier to entry, making competition more difficult to start
Subscriptions are an overused pricing model. Businesses love subscriptions because they love recurring revenue. The desire for RR pushes businesses to pursue products the fit the revenue model rather than solving…
Influenced, but I've been considering it for about a year. As the parent poster mentioned, I too am finding very little of the Netflix content enjoyable. Ahead of my first viewing of He-Man I made some mental…
Long-term there was always going to be a marketplace process for piracy. As the pain/expense of legitimately acquiring content exceeds the pain/expense of acquiring it via other means, consumers will make choices that…
Conjecture: their content and suggestions are garbage because they aren't allowing the data to drive their decisions independent of their ideological or public perception concerns. After He-Man released I ended my…
Those are still moves in the right direction. Requiring a cosigner for example brings in another party who can evaluate the situation and contribute to the decision to take out the loan vs. pursuing an alternative. Your…
Bankruptcy should help with this but student loans are currently a special case
> the blockchains are too inefficient to host it directly. True, this needs to be addressed before I can get what I want. In the case of media it's got to be either on-chain or strongly coupled so that once published,…
I've been wondering about this as well. So far there does not appear to be an accepted route to fixing this in BTC, but there are proposals. I've heard (unreliably) that there are already transactions out there…
I'm most interested in the censorship or in more friendly terms, authenticity gains that blockchain can provide. In a world where works are being revised, "special edition"ed or straight removed from availability, I'm…
Sounds great but we should be worried about the cobra effect. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perverse_incentive
Stocks and bonds are still coupled to fiat currencies and will be directly impacted by their perceived deficiencies when compared to crypto. Hard assets like real estate, land, gold don't fit that bill, but each of…
Somewhat good advice, but with a caveat. While a good narrative is generally helpful, results still matter. Case in point, a team that ships quickly but also has crunch time can craft a story about heroic devs staying…
I can think of a few reasons competition can be beneficial. 1. Exert downward pressure on union fees 2. Offer alternatives in the case of union corruption 3. Offer alternatives in union priorities/mission Also, I don't…
Skepticism is good, but not outright dismissal
Not making mistakes isn't productivity, that's the bare minimum of acceptable behavior.
Barring fraud, lavish expenditures that you describe would be counted as compensation not investment and thus the picture changes dramatically.
Thanks for presenting this. I suspected this might be a problem across administrations rather than Trump-specific.
Problem is that it's a subtle accusation of speaking in bad faith or an accusation of lacking agency. In order to have respect for the other person, you can't start from either of those positions.
> but have a warm safe place to sleep with a locked door and fridge seems reasonable. Yeah, that seems reasonable to me but we also know that there's a great deal of variation on all of the details there (warm, safe,…
> If you're not being paid enough to live on 40 hours a week, you're underpaid. This is perhaps a core disagreement, which is wroth digging into. I'm willing to engage with this idea but the disagreement area is…
I might be in the minority, but I don't read you as being a shill. It's a reasonable framing of the problem, i.e., not as a problem of production but of disposal. We already have markets, taxes and subsidies around the…
