Competition and divided roles keeps these systems somewhat functional. Put them all under one authority and almost certainly see an increase in abuse

The odd thing is they try to sell it as a technology? Where is the innovation? It's just private payment networks moving onto one single network controlled by a central authority. No authority has had this responsibility in human histo

Use of one bank's credit card is voluntary and not mandated by the central authority. It's the difference between choosing to only read the New York Times or a government enforcement of one source of news

I think it'll take a government like China or North Korea with no inhibitions to fully utilize the potential of this technology

Exporting the key with the advanced menu is not a normal use for the signing device. It's an optional advanced feature

I'll leave you alone with your smug ignorance. Highly doubt you know the technical details of these systems.

It's not inconsistent when the designs are the opposite. Bitcoin is permissionless and payments are uncensorable. A tool against govt power and individually empowering. CBDC have central control and govt control in the name. The Chines

You obviously have your own theory so please go ahead and share it. The bitcoin devs working on CBDCs are a small minority

Windows is a mess. When I boot into it once every 5 years I'm floored by how bad it is. The touch controls in Internet Explorer don't even work consistently

They get money to make some software but clearly aren't proponents of a totalitarian system

You mean several years ago. And this should be a meme. Ok I was lying about Musk but what about the pedophile comment

Well that is exactly how central banks operate which is a funny example because it's clear recently they have been corrupted and play to politics

It's a meaningless statement that can be said about anything. It's more complicated. You intensionally misconstrued the banking theft example as legitimate lending to make a nonexistent point

Let's not be silly. The criminal himself admitted he stole the money. It's not rocket science. If your banker tells you he used your savings for his holiday it's not ambiguous The problem is both his parents are Stanford prof

I never admitted to stealing over a billion dollars. The criminal himself said he was a criminal that took funds

Korea has poor UI design in general. As someone living in Seoul I avoid these places. Highly likely to be a bad experience

MBA culture is more group think than logical business strategies. They'll happily run businesses into the ground

It's been on the BBC front page about a woman lead protest since a few days ago

Yea it looks like most poverty now is political. Like North Korea or war torn countries. I think most countries if they had good political leadership could be wealthy

"error bars" are only relevant if you have a reliable model and theory. Economists buying into their own models of humans is the problem
