I think a lot of people want to overthink the hell out of financial use cases and come up with a million reasons why bitcoin etc can't do X and can't do Y. This holiday weekend is a great example of a use case crypto absolutely cr

We learned a tremendous amount about how to do vaccination at scale and treat a terrible disease, polio, about 65 years ago. Somehow we have forgotten every single one of those lessons and in fact are now doing exactly the things we know do

What exactly makes it your work? You were almost certainly educated in public schools and got there via public roads, you food and water heavily subsidized by the public. Your work probably uses a language and letters and tools you did not

In my experience retailers are lying in a bed of their own making. They have had more than a decade to implement RFID based UPCs and have steadfastly resisted it at every turn because of the few pennies it adds in the supply chain. While no

Just how much of a middle finger can they give to users before people wake up and move to Firefox? There was a time Firefox had some performance problems but that time has passed, it works every bit as well as Chrome does now, if not better

We, the US, have fumbled all our opportunities to stop the rise of Nazi China and are now an observer from the sidelines waiting to see if it implodes before it casts half the world in shadow.

Study is worthless. They did not have the means or funds to properly census the body of people involved, they only took blood samples from consenting symptomatic people and they were highly preselective in choosing the regions they included

Largest insider trading ring in history and still running. To agree to 7 billion you can guarantee they are walking away with at least 60 billion squirreled away unseen.

The US and Nazi China have already been in world war 3 since the Korean war. It remains to be seen how much longer we can last in it but it's not looking very good.

At this point we can only hope that Nazi China implodes before it enslaves most of the world.

The scam by which reddit's remaining founders reacquired itself out from under conde-nast is pretty hilarious if it isn't illegal (I have no idea if it was illegal). https://www.fastcompany.com/3048521/ellen-p

It's basic patronage of the arts. It's a mechanism that long predates anything to do with the internet. Like a creator? Want them to keep creating? Give them money directly (well mostly directly).

I'm not sure we can say at what point the rule of law was abandoned for aristocracy in the US but this is absolute proof that it has happened. The Sackler family is conclusively and directly responsible for at least 18,000 deaths in th

Huge widespread systematic fraud in every single government program but definitely, certainly, absolutely not in voting. No systematic voting fraud ever happens. Ever.

The US wants to have moral authority with scummy authoritarian governments throughout the world and then acts like a scummy authoritarian government. Do you want thriving dictatorships? This is how you get thriving dictatorships.

Two important facts that lots of folks seem to miss. The extreme ultraviolet process was created by and remains owned by the US DOE and LLNL. The US wields enormous control over ASML because of this fact. https://www.spiedigitall

One of those contradictions I am at a loss to explain is that the same people who seem to be freaking out about vaccine card fraud completely deny that voting fraud is widespread.
