Musk has stock options that he has to buy and he doesn't get a salary. He said he doesnt own houses or yachts and he works all the time. He's spending it on making humans interplanetary. Of all the billionaires to bitch about, Mus

>why do you think a hedge fund would concoct a nefarious, extremely uncertain scheme to get people to think they closed instead of actually closing? Because they haven't closed their positions, and that information would tip shareho

I'll double down for you and it will really melt you brain- they paid Ars in this article to say they have covered their shorts. To think hedge funds wouldnt do such a thing when so much is riding on this, is extremely naive.

Well, in a capitalistic society with government oversight, you can expect the strong arm of government to lay the ban hammer on them. Participate in our society and be governed by the rules of our nation. As a capitalist fanboy I cant wait

Same in Sweden up until very recently. They didn't have a mask mandate or restrictions for the longest time yet are only 15th in deaths for all of Europe.

Lockdowns didn't exist in the literature prior to march 2020. This is all experimental clap trap being sold as science.

People who want to say to their friends that they were in the same room as those people. It's social capital.

I think it's selfish that you'd prefer to remain unfit and see a generation of children your daughter's age lose a year of socialising and education than to choose to isolate yourself and let them live their lives if you real

Yeah I agree, but on that topic I think we're heading into completely unchartered territory with an event horizon beyond which I cannot see, the only wisdom I have that might prepare us for what might unfold is- "there's no s

Sure, wait for a vaccine but I certainly won't be taking it as I can run a 5km in 23 minutes, in the gym five days a week when it's not shut down, I eat well and I take vitamin D. I would only recommend a vaccine to those aged bet

It's summer in the southern hemisphere and don't say you got rid of sars2 in your winter, you didn't, and there's still cases recently. Let my comment be a warning that you might be in for a world of hurt in the next few

Australia- It's summer there. Duh. China- I'd prefer to die than live on my knees New Zealand- Summer. and Vietnam- SARS1 cross immunity, remember?

Your comment made my skin crawl. You're the type of person I desperately avoid at parties.

Gold isn't free to transport. Bitcoin shouldn't aim to be either. We don't want starbucks transactions in the same database as people saving for their pension. If you're transporting large amounts of money (digital gold)

I once interviewed for a online PDF document signing company. You probably know it's name. During the interview I was asked what my impression was of what they did. "Allow people to sign PDFs online" was my reply. "No, n
