American life expectancy is absurdly bad. I live in the places in Europe/EU where it's much higher, so to me it really is very bad (and yes we are making fun of US because of it too).

It's enough to post a comment on YouTube which doesn't entirely agree with the mainstream. I got a ban when I suggested on 20th Feb that Russia might attack Ukraine, and it took down the one (fortunately non-production) thing I ha

So where's your data? I bought a pretty large solar array by adding a panel or two over the years. It's so big now that I have more than enough energy to sell/mine BTC even in winter - and that's for a large old EU-style

These doctors need to be taught a lot and don't even care about proper hygiene (or as one of them told me "we care about hygiene, it just means something totally different in Cuba"), and don't know the first thing abou

Ukrainians are sending Russian hardware to US and other allies for analysis - immediately. But if your only ally is Iran and North Korea, perhaps you really don't have so many options...

That's a great point, yeah I guess this is generating sell pressure on BTC.

Today over 2500 cars are stolen every year in our small state, and it was 10k in 2012 and 2013 and 8.5k in 2014, and suddenly decreased to 3k in 2017 (just around the time the guy from the bar went to prison)... Why is it so unlikely? They

I first replied with the hot water comment, the reply to the GPU question wasn't my first comment here.

Hmm, I'm not so sure about that. To me it seems much more like the increased demand has generated a lot of competition and that got prices way down from the levels just 5-10 years ago.

Well my point is, you make GPUs in the same factory where you make CPUs and networking chips. So first have a look at what happened there - e.g. a massive new client has appeared and booked out the entire capacity that usually Nvidia and AM

I'm not paying for it, I have my own solar arrays. And after I am finished I'll redirect the unused energy to BTC mining again - the grid pays less than half of what I get from mining. Nobody's business.

Are you suggesting the high-end semiconductor shortage was caused by crypto? I don't think so. When you have Apple buying out the entire 5nm TSMC capacity for a year/more - in direct competition with NVidia, it's a hard propo

All the other people are free to buy the cheaper/more efficient solar panels for their own purposes. Why do you care that somebody uses them for Bitcoin? Do you also care that I shower with hot water a lot?

In Europe it's very usual to charge consulting rates that are double what the employee is paid. After the employer-paid portion of taxes and insurance it's necessary, the actual margin is just around 15-20% then.

From my experience, it's practically always middlemen. I don't see a problem though - this is easier for me. I found a few good recruiters that I keep in contact with, they know my requirements and anytime I ask they have a good,

It's nowhere beyond, it's exactly privacy. My country still (since the 90s) has numbered shares - meaning not tied to a person. The fight is not over yet, even though the EU is really trying hard to destroy all privacy here. And i

Similar thing was happening across all Volkswagen Group (VW, Audi, Škoda, Porsche) models some time ago. They had a bug in their enrollment code and it was possible to list all cars and then assign any (capable) car to your mobile app. It&#

You mean like when the KGB murdered my grandparent based on class origin and corporation ownership? Or the time when the Gestapo did the same to my great-grandparent, also based on ownership of the same corporation? To me, it seems like the

These people I see around here need to go to a BTC ATM to have cash for the coffee stand right next to it. What's so different? The scale, OK, but anything else? Actually, people are buying land/houses and cars with BTC here, also

To me, privacy is first and foremost protection. That's from my upbringing, I guess. It's hard to argue with anything other to people who don't seem like they care about their privacy at all - and I get it, some people just d

by WHATDOESIT 4y ago
Well, and isn't it the same for BTC then? In the city where I live, there's tons of Bitcoin ATMs everywhere - and people using them, pretty clearly to go around their everyday business, as if it was a bank ATM.

No forced sterilization of women based on race/class/other background, for example? No exclusion from education, medical care etc? Surely? Anyways, something like 40% of the EU citizens lived through communism, so it's not ex

Yeah indeed, I was the one to bring feature branches up - my original comment said that learning Git better won't help you with feature branches in case such as ours, and that what's actually needed is a workflow change - as a

So you're buying into trust of that government. With BTC you're buying into trust of the technology and other network participants. Is it really so different? I don't trust governments so much - my local currency is currently

What are you actually buying while Forex trading? (I'd really like to know. To me, BTC trading and Forex trading sound exactly the same.)

No, I am claiming "our team didn't develop features in feature branches ". Local copy of the main branch is a branch too, I know that very well. But it's definitely not a "feature branch" - it's not named

by WHATDOESIT 4y ago
Sorry that I didn't explicitly say "local copy of the main branch". I thought that's a given. Not that it's really relevant though... Still the same problem with feature branches - if you don't integrate often

You can't really do feature branches without knowing how branching in Git works... > It's really not hard, a "local copy" is a branch. For sure. Not necessarily a "feature branch" though. That's a more
