This makes no sense. The gas going through the pipeline is already expensive and it's already used to heat poor peoples homes. Meanwhile, Nato's military power is pretty much irrelevant if the countries of Nato can't piss of

I think it's actually interesting to see how NFTs cope with the real copyright issues that they claim to be solving.

That's quite an interesting question, and I think there's an answer within the world of NFTs and an answer outside of it. Disclaimer: I'm new to this, I could be wrong. Outside of the world of NFTs, you're just submittin

My big problem with crypto at the moment is that 99% of normal investors are just using exchanges. It’s like we’ve claimed to invent a new technology to replace rsync and it really does exist but it’s worse than rsync, and everyone who thin

The problem I have with this is that it presupposes that you can change 1 thing and view the difference. What if the only reason a company is successful is because of a unique idea that 3 people came up with together? Are each of them worth

Companies like Lenovo offer very good warranty services that solve this problem. They’re expensive in absolute terms but in the context of “how much do I earn per hour” they’re absurdly cheap. Likely their repair service is quicker than dia

As with all these interview questions, you’re going to do much much better if you’ve seen a variation of this question before. I suspect a lot of readers will recognise the real networking problems that this relates to, but there’s also a p

Given what Tesla has said publicly about their cars/software and the response of regulators, I would say impotent is pretty accurate.

Let's be clear about what has happened here though - Dorsey saved Twitter when he first returned, but he completely failed to run it as a business. No monetization, anemic growth and a complete failure to become a real competitor in th

I’m sorry but I don’t understand this, crypto assets are incredibly correlated. Web3 and all the eth type tokens/coins actually increase the value of BTC as they gain adoption. Sure BTC might theoretically get replaced by some of these

There’s obvious partisanship in uk and us media, but the difference vs totalitarian states like China, is that the partisanship is in a thousand different directions. So in the US or UK you have access to all agendas and can reason for your

This is the exact problem - there are a hundred different explanations for why news might be good or bad. High case right? Good sometimes! You need a fully formed view to come to a conclusion based on details and those most qualified to do

Yeah my first reaction to this was "Oh it's going to be the public". Because the US has strong rights and legal system basically anyone can come along and considerably screw up a project just by claiming some endangered bat i

That doesn't seem right to me - they're saying this account had something like 500k followers (which, again, let's assume that's true) you're going to see reporting from WSJ, NYT, WashPo etc. all of whom have milli

Doesn't it seem a pretty strong indicator that the claim they got censored for reporting on Maxwell is untrue because more popular, more credible people aren't being suspended. If the goal is to supress news about Maxwell it see

I actually think in this case it basically is. The court can say those bitcoin are his, but if he doesn't have the wallet he doesn't have the wallet. The only way to get the coins would be to introduce a hard fork that moves those

I think it's really important for people to understand that $1Bn isn't a lot of money to JPM because they do lots of things . They made $30Bn last year - but this specific trading business probably made nothing like that. They&#x

I think one of the things people ought to remember with these cases is that this is probably really bad for JPM - over the years this took place the traders will have been taking a huge portion of these profits as bonuses getting incredibly

Sure, the but flipside is that you lose the public good. You no longer have a mandated universal service operation which means suddenly you can't send mail to rural locations. And not only can you not send mail to rural locations, all

I've literally had people at prop trading firms gush about how crypto exchanges work - "You're the exchange so you literally know where everyone's stop losses are!", it's absurd you're the exchange but you

I don't see how increasing efficiency is seriously distinct from increasing scalability? It seems to me that efficiency is a solution to scalability.

Yeah, it seems step 1 is scream "I'm under attack" step 2 is people point out you aren't, and step 3 is to use step 2 to prove that you're under attack.

It's about time, Twitter has failed to deliver for far too long and it's pretty clear things had to seriously change. I think the details of the structure are probably unimportant - these reorganisations are more about moving peop

A company doesn't need to be owned by the govenrment (which I assume is what you mean) for the government to guarantee it is free from being bought out by it's competitors. Whatsapp/Instagram were great examples of this - whe

I agree with you that it's obviously dumb to let Nvidia buy ARM... BUT we're already in a situation where softbank own ARM. I think the only argument that Nvidia is more dangerous is that they're more competent.

A perfectly reasonable thing for Apple to do would be to buy foreign exchange options to hedge out the risk of currency fluctatuions, passing the cost on to consumers. So it'll cost a percent or two more in the price of a new Apple pro

How does the NFT ensure you can attend the show? Surely the bouncer can just tell you you're not getting in, or let in the DJs friends?

It's more revenue friendly to have a yearly road tax than to tax registrations for a few reasons - 1. You don't disincentivize new car purposes (it's important to buy new cars to replace the old polluting ones you want off th
