True. What actually happens, is the opposite, known as Thier's law[0]: "Good money drives out bad". When given free choice (free competition between currencies), people prefer to accept the good money, which eventually drives

That's the problem. It would require some kind of new fuzzy signature algorithm, which works on information content in speech, rather than raw audio data. In this case, exact matching of data isn't important, but major changes in

We have solved this problem already for text with digital signatures. There might be a way to digitally sign speech in real-time and show the signature on a display device, which is captured on video. It could be just a smartphone app or a

Another effect of inflation is that people are forced to invest and take on risk, in order to not lose their savings. I think this has a major effect on workforce productivity and mental health. Everyone has to watch markets and worry about

Same here. I've now played Elden Ring for 70 hours, and I'm about to give up. I gave it a chance but it seems that this type of game is not for me. I'm not able to get better at it, and there's no feeling of accomplishme

There isn't much opportunity for learning when you get to face the enemy for just a few seconds, get killed and then have to grind through loading screen and low level enemies to get another try. It's just awful game design.

Just from economics point of view, it's a really bad idea to monopolize banking completely. There's a reason why central banks / money issuing should be separate from governments, although this principle has been eroding for

There's no software support for foveated rendering in any games yet, afaik. It works in desktop mode and it's fast enough to be unnoticeable.

I'd say that its just a couple of years ahead of the mainstream curve. My thinking is that Apple probably wants to make a very high resolution VR headset (similar or close to Varjo Aero), and it seems that with their new chips, they mi

I didn't see display resolution (or the model of HMD) mentioned in the video. I'm using Varjo Aero, which has 2880x2720 per eye, which is almost quapruple (per eye) compared to Valve Index. I think this resolution is enough for a

It also has an RTX 3090 level GPU, which costs over $3000. Taking this into account, it isn't that expensive comparatively.

This is insane. They claim that its GPU performance tops the RTX 3090, while using 200W less power. I happen to have this GPU on my PC and not only it costs over $3000, but its also very power-hungry and loud. Currently, you need this kind

The curse is crypto tokens and NFTs, not Bitcoin or proof-of-work. As we have seen, most of these tokens are just speculative schemes without connection to the underlying property. On the contrary, Bitcoin, as a seamless Internet-native cur

No, there's lots of calories in stool, but it depends on the type of food. For example, eating lots of fats and oils tends to "go through". On the other hand, rate of metabolism varies between people too.

If you compare to Monero, you see that Monero isn't even allowed on these exchanges. So, it seems that you can't really have privacy combined with high exchange liquidity.
