Outlawing Bitcoin assumes quite some things. 1. The governments are competent and could do outlaw it - The outlawing of guns, drugs, alcohol, tax evasion seems to have had the opposite effect. 2. For all of the flaws of western governments,

1. As other people mention Bitcoin is highly divisible. 2. Other Bitcoins simply becomes more valuable and thus strengthening the system

This is the only argument I have found against Bitcoin that have substance. I can see this as a problem, but so far there have always been enough miners that was profitable. One day that might not be true though - hopefully it wont. One rea

That's very meta. Explaining how to promote open source software by promoting some open source software. I like it

Oh my god! That looks so much fun and so dangerous at the same time.

Hey Tozen, Didn't know about this animosity or the fights that have happened. That was definitely not my intention to spur anything up. I have used Go extensively in many projects and in generally very happy when I need that kinda lang

They yield 3-5% right now. Official inflation is 8%. You're losing 3-6% based on official inflation data. I don't know about you though, but things went up a lot more than 8% for me. But let's say just 3% a year loss, that&#x

Fell over this relatively new programming language. I normally don't get so excited about new programming languages, but this seems to improve on a lot of the things I dislike about Go while having a lot of the benefits of Go. Do anyon

Can only agree with you ;)

by TigerTeamX 3y ago
Yes, you're right. I made two stars but HN removes that. Many times in programming we use two stars for meaning ^

Yeah, that's right. I wrote two stars but apparently they're removed by HN.

I don't take MMT serious. It has been wrong about almost everything. The theories are just theories without substance or evidence.

Ahh Yes, the privileged of being born a certain place makes you forced to continuously pay them money... That's definitely not slavery

They do play games borrowing against their assets. Why can they do this? Becomes the government have monopolized *the cost of capital* I completely agree this is bad. But giving the government more taxes will not make them suddenly change t

0.99*10 = 90%. Why do you need to work just to keep your wealth at the same level? Isn't that a big red flag?

didn't say federal income tax. I said tax. Federal, state, municipality taxes. Now adding other things like rent tax etc.. Your steak is now 50% more expensive. If not more

by TigerTeamX 3y ago
Taxes increase inflation. You buy a steak at a restaurant. If they have to pay 50% extra for their employees in tax, and 50% extra for the meat then it will be more expensive for them to sell you the steak.

You open up a lot of conversations here not related to wealth tax. The question is, do you think it is okay for a government to say "hey, we changed our mind and the money you have that we already have taxed we want to tax again".

Wealth taxes are probably the most unfair tax that exist as they negatively compound. a 1% wealth tax will make you lose 10% over 10 years. Factor in inflation and you lose maybe 50% of your wealth real quick. This ensures you can never rea

Thanks for the nice summary. What about user interface? I always felt MacOS clunky when I tried a Macbook. E.g. no sticky windows.

Apple stuff probably comes the closet to your criteria.

Dont know if it is a AI response, but one of my friends had a M1 and we couldn't watch a movie because VLC wasn't ported yet. Just some weird things with Snaps that made me "snap" :P Like, Installing Chromium with snap,

Freedom and flexibity is a large part, but also so many bad stories when the hardware breaks.

Yeah definitely weird and it didn't happen before. I am running a memtester as mongol suggested. I really enjoy Linux and the freedom it gives me, but using 30 hours last month getting things to work so I can do work... is not how I wa
