I never said I want it outlawed. That would deprive me of the clowns to laugh at.

"Assets" is a bit of a strong term for meaningless blobs of data. Can you refine your question to make it more specific? What assets would I actually desire to entrust to a website? I can think of none, because trusting a website

The electricity argument might have been mitigated, but I don't believe it is moot. If it was moot then it would be entirely irrelevant. It is still relevant because the power requirements might have been reduced, but that means nothin

Which is a hilariously awful proposition, especially given how truly security unconscious most wallet applications actually are, along with the... questionable... security policies baked-in to the blockchain.

Do you have any source for (a) how much electricity the blockchain requires after the merge and (b) whether there are any applications outside of gambling and scamming that can not be done otherwise?

Correct, scams do come via the telephone and email. The telephone and email are also useful for legitimate transactions. They also take many orders of magnitude less electricity than Ethereum, while providing far more service. I have yet to

My understanding is that they use NFTs on the Ethereum chain for authentication. NFTs are still wildly damaging to the ecosystem, with how much electricity they demand. Their sole purpose is to be traded as chits in a series of wealth extra

Blow it out yours first. The words you have written come from a place of utmost ignorance. You are mistaking your own opinions and values for information. Again, "drugs are bad for you" is not information. It is not something to b

Do you have any high-quality studies towards these relevant measures? Because your proposition is: "I think this man might be on PCP. He is otherwise doing nothing wrong. He should be imprisoned." That is ridiculous. A sober perso

I don't believe this to be a necessary truth. Do you have any high quality studies that PCP, itself as a substance, does indeed raise the probability of someone doing something untoward? Might it not, in fact, be a problem with the peo

Do you think that's down to availability, or down to a lack of support and education?

Why should your preference impact my right to my body and what I put into it? That is downright psychotic. You mean to tell me that if someone simply takes PCP near you and does not in any way harm you, you would like for their fundamental

Europe, circa the middle ages, had cultural taboos against certain "witchy" herbs. To the best of my knowledge, this is the only other cultural prohibition against some class of drugs at large. I do believe such bans to be hideous

What do you consider advanced? Keeping in mind, of course, that cocaine was legal in the US until ne'er-do-well do-gooders decided they knew better for everyone. That is why we have Coca Cola, which is a formulation of Mr. John Pembert

I think this is likely to be on par with or even eclipse SolarWinds. Can anyone more experienced chime in?

Fees that scale on a linear, quadratic, or exponential schedule (or any other above-unity schedule) is a regressive tax. It would disproportionately harm smaller creators. I would run out of money for my IP far before Disney. Unless this sc

I'm entirely out of the loop with the LessWrong crowd. Could you explain what you mean by your comment? I saw the interview between Friedman and Yudlowski and was less than impressed.

Jury Nullification, aka The Citizen's Veto, is a necessary consequence of the rights enjoyed by the citizens. It might not be a right, but it is a valid form of lawfare. It is a tool we should use to undermine bad laws. That bad laws e

adamnemecek has posted too many comments and is in cooldown phase, but he's asked me to post this comment: "It's the programmers equal sign. I think that the surrounding text provides a decent explanation what the deal is. Yo
