   I think it depends on the end service. For instance, some critical services would do best to be available without those technical constraints. So for a chat system for video games? Who cares. For my online banking when they no longer staff

   I think you misunderstand. I was rephrasing your statement "Why not take profits" to reflect the reality of WU's role in El Salvador.

   Probably the most clear-headed on the meeting that morning, to boot. One thing I really love about working remotely is that I can maintain perspective. It's easier to take a step away and remember to see life for what it is rather than

   I like the thought experiment of taking that to its absurd logical conclusion. I'm sure there are some fun ones. Eg, Once a single corporation is in control of everything, and everything that comes in is profit and everything that goes

   If you are the only financial service for a large population, why not take them for all they're worth?

   From what I've seen, it doesn't matter if they have a technical background. Hubris operates the same way in people—it serves to blind them of all but their own ambitions as they lose a more complete picture of reality in favour of

    Oh I agree, but let’s not kid ourselves—the market around them is the same in abstract. For all the physical properties of a material thing we might admire, someone else might admire an NFT for the lack of those properties and inclusion of

    I’m in the not sure camp. I’ve had more positive gut feeling about some projects over others. I can’t stand tech bro culture in general so most of it turns me off pretty easily. I think there may be something there, but that the current sta

    Oh I need to try this. My enamel has been bad since I was a kid in spite of a great oral hygiene routine. Constant problems. My dentist turned me on to Colgate Prevident and the regular Sensodyne fluoride pastes but never that one.

    I spied similar patterns as a student and started collecting books I valued. As a consequence I have some not very valuable but rather rare items that I cherish and couldn’t read anywhere else, even digitally (at least at the time). One exa

    I could assert all kinds of qualifiers as to why I should get everything I want for free, too. That doesn't mean I'm justified. And this isn't a document of immense historical import we're discussing. It's a short (

    I agree with you. At the same time, it seems like an interesting discussion to be had, but it started the wrong way. I have to apply it to songwriting because that's an area I have more experience. Most (if not all) of the songwriters

    I thought it was clear I wasn't judging anyone's personal use of archive.is or any other internet archive or slimmed-down reader-view—just remarking on the sharing of those links on a professional forum. The widespread sharing of

    I care because they’re people as much as any of us are, and I don’t believe we should be sharing software keys or Netflix passwords on here, either, even (or especially) if everyone attending the forum is fully capable of acquiring free acc

    Ah you may be right about that the paywall. There was none for me, only a “call to action”. I understand why people use those links, but given we’re in a technical forum it probably stands that people know how to leverage those services the

    There’s no paywall on the article. And we wouldn’t share license keys for software we might believe should be free, or ad free, so why is this acceptable?

    Traditionally, poor people did not have the means or access to invest money in an index like S&P. Most people also aren't equipped to see their savings reduce in real value every month. This is a global phenomenon, not one isolated

    I agree. But also try taking a step back: why are they gambling? Sure, greed is ever-present in human history—that's a given. But also listen to the doubt in the present establishment. I know what it's like to be poor and what the

    It strikes me as similar to the reasons I see people rejoice when artists or the like struggle to make it. It validates one's life choices like giving up on dreams to take up a dull job that keeps the lights just barely on. Crabs in a
