Totally wrong definition of inflation. Inflation of money supply is a driver of higher prices. But inflation is not higher prices themselves. Inflation is same as debasing currency and stealing purchasing power from the people. It’s a st

I used to work with one of the CEOs, Doug. He was the first “adult” at Facebook and apparently helped create Facebook Photos. Quite impressive. Also after being heavily diluted at GoodRX, he and the other CEO managed to get new stock gra

Amazing that somebody or some people went to 20 years of school to get a law degree and they now spend their time and skills targeting competing fruit logos for a company that makes computers but somehow owns the word and likeness of a frui

I have always found Google Maps incredibly confusing and difficult to use. Its never clear what mode you are in, how to go back or where back will take you? The confusion is compounded why I use CarPlay. Its so frustrating and dangerous.

Moderation is highly subjective and Parler seemed to have limited moderation mostly to illegal speech. We have built an entire country on the premise of legal vs illegal speech and have very clear laws and systems in place for reporting an

Prediction: Robinhood loses class action and is bought by Schwab for pennies after founders plea bargain for 3 months prison and $20M in fine each and disappear into the ether like Adam Neumann.

Printing money is debasing currency, no? We are stealing purchasing power from every holder of dollars.

In all cases ILLEGAL speech can’t be allowed to remain on platform. There needs to be a high tech system for logging and reporting Illegal Speech to government. And a means for government to take efficient and prompt action. Disliked speec

All good points, but I think most real flat tax proposals have zero tax on your “base need” income. Imagine no taxes on first $40k of income... Then a flat tax above that.

Thoughts on GeTenna? What about an open source encrypted protocol that uses an RF device like GoTenna on specific longer range frequencies? Anything like that exist?

In the case of voting it doesn’t matter the identity of the voter. It just matters that they are in fact eligible to vote in that district and are indeed only voting once. Without some form of ID or some one-time-use voucher that can only

But the claim is that Trump said something to incite it... hence why he was booted from Twitter and impeached. But what did he say? Asking for a friend.

Probably true. And can always spin it later as well, especially when people subliminally need to agree with the spin so as not to explode their own head by challenging the very basis of all their thinking.

Censoring content rather than refuting its claims is counterproductive. If skeptics are not able to be argumentatively refute a claim, they will not succeed in changing minds. The current strategy of trying to silence view points will eve

Can you cite or link to What Trump said to incite the siege on the capital (as opposed to just getting people to its steps peacefully as he’s been talking about for 2 weeks)? Honest question...I literally can’t find it anywhere. I want to k

If Democrats agreed to a universal free voterID for all US citizens that people can get at any post office, the Republicans would 100% go for it. All they truly want is a fair and trusted election. Any claim against this is based purely i

Even Facebook Portal TV sucks. Slow, low res, awe full tracking, even worse UX. And it sees the reflections from the TV in my art on the wall and tries to track it. So maybe start there.
