India is clearly in Asia. So yes, by definition Indians are Asians.

What has fundamentally changed since 2014? Or is it the lack of change? Or did you just get older?

There would have been another opportunity with someone else that you would have fancied as much or even more.

>There's an 80 year old guy who did it in half the time Isn't that worse when it comes to travelling? I'd rather experience 7 things in 7 days than 7 things in 2 days.

What bullshit are you referring to? I don't think there is a requirement to be boring but there certainly is a requirement to bring food on the table and cooperate with other individuals.

Because leaving Bitcoin on a hot wallet, which is the source of most of these hacks, is like leaving gold bars on a park bench.

Central banks definitely don't own gold because it's such a useful commodity. Are central banks gold bugs?

It's also non-trivial to guess a private key or to run a 51% attack.

But this could also happen to Bitcoin and crypto bros would certainly argue it has already started to happen.

You know, it's kinda funny that you mention gold bugs. Because gold shares a lot of properties with Bitcoin, and therefore should be considered a sham by most of HN. Yet somehow it sits currently at $1,670/oz and is owned by all m

If it's better in 2/3 cases, it's better. Yes it could turn out to be worse, but since we don't know the future, it's the better option.

In the end everything is based on faith. You hope that in the future your stocks/bonds/cash/gold/crypto/bank account/real estate a) are still recognized as being yours and that b) some entity will be willing an

Yeah, but if you have a lump sum of money it's still better to invest everything at once if you plan to hold it for decades. Vanguard has a good paper on that titled "Dollar-cost averaging just means taking risk later". And a

Why is buy and hold a "pessimal strategy"?

>After Ms. Margis liked one of his Instagram posts in 2020, Mr. Price, who was 35, messaged her: “Happy Valentine’s Day beautiful!” This already is a huge red flag in my opinion.

Exactly my point, why not say it like that?

I was talking about the parent comment, not the article. The article is actually encouraging and says that it's not too late and we can fix this.

It's called paraphrasing (and yes, dramatization to make a point). From the comment I replied to: >reality of unavoidable climate catastrophe >how dire the situation is I read this as "doomed". And if we are already doo

I didn't even downvote it, but saying "we are not doing nearly enough, therefore we are doomed" encourages some people to conclude "well, then we can pollute as much as we want, it doesn't matter anyway". Yes,

Yes. I've never had a gun in my hands or saw/heard one being fired and don't know anyone who has. Same for most non-developed countries I imagine.

There are ETFs that invest in international stocks. VT for example. That way you're not betting it all on one country.

There seem to be more women in QA in general. Genuinely asking: Is this also sexism?

The truth is in fact very upsetting, yes.
