Space and time may be emergent, we don't know, all we do know is that our current model of physics is missing something. Quantum Gravity for example and We don't know what happens inside a black hole either.

Civilizations are only detectable for a short period of time. Once they understand physics, they no longer need radio waves or Dyson spheres or to travel through what we call spacetime.

What are you proposing? If someone is overweight with high blood pressure and a higher risk for a heart attack we should take away their license? These drivers are vetted and their usage is monitored, many are employees. In the long run aut

People will die today because a driver was drunk/distracted/suicidal/rode raged or had a medical problem. Are you OK with that or do you think we should attempt to fix that with software? If you do think you should attempt to

Flexibility and Standardization is a tradeoff and how useful each one is depends on the context. Should you put a project on hold if you only have 1/2 inch nails and the plans ask for 3/4 inch nails? I don't know, are you bui

"Banks are old and slow, technology is fast and new" so technology will win. That is totally reasonable logic. But bitcoin provides no protection from fraud by design. If someone breaks into your house or hacks your computer and s

I believe you, and just for context, I have spent 600k on AWS over the past 3 years, when I could have spent it on Azure. I don't think AWS should be shut down.

In theory crypto could cure cancer by funding a promising researcher via micro payments. But until that actually happens, crypto's use case is ransomware, buying drugs online, and being used as a way to "invest" in coins that

This is how ALL of Crypto works. A decentralized ledger means that you cannot call the CEO or CFO of the ledger and have a clearly fraudulent transfer revoked. That is the tradeoff.

It is fake in the sense that billions of dollars are being minted by crypto without any real use case other than theoretically fixing the financial system "someday". But fake stuff has always been a big part of the economy. Realto

Growth Stocks are not priced based on current profits, but future growth and profits. When I bought GOOG in 2005, the consensus was that GOOG was overpriced because they didn't have a lot of revenue. When I bought TSLA in 2014 the cons

It would be a pretty stupid business plan to do a ton of fake research about a company just to make a quick buck off the initial drop in the stock. If NKLA turned out to be a great company that was on their way to huge success the researche

The hospitals and the insurance companies do not want this to happen. Some politicians may want this to happen but others don't so the regulations are not forcing this to happen. It isn't something that software can fix.

True, a good chunk of trading and wall street in general is not doing anything real. But just like the dotcom bubble, the music stops eventually, and you don't want to be stuck holding worthless stocks or coins when that happens.

If you mass produce these things you are going to leave traces of your logistics supply chain. Even if you brought them into a staging are one at a time your frequent trips would lead back to where they were made or by whom.
