Many of the fortunes you see in these leaks are illegally obtained through political favoritism.

You’re mistaken. Namebase is an independent registar for HNS domains and it’s not the same as the Handshake project, which did the actual distribution of the coins. I’m surprised people haven’t heard about this project, they have been linke

The tokens were not minted by Namebase. HNS can be mined and there was a wide initial distribution, many of them including to large OSS project s.

I want multi-device support and a way to delegate all the feed-syncing to an always on device like a raspberry pi or a VPS. That way, when I start the app on my phone or on my laptop, I can see the feeds much faster.

Is it still the case that your identity is connected to a single device?

If we wouldn’t have a centrally planned monetary system that is trying to avoid deflation at all cost, I would agree with you. So for now, it seems that assets won’t be allowed to go down because it would blow up the debt based system that

I am sorry, but that's bullshit. Do you see Russia threatening Microsoft for not banning certain apps from Windows? No, because they can't. Apple and Google have build their ecosystem in such a way that they have full power over t

It's hard to maximise profit and have consistent internal moral principles. As the other child comment mentioned, I would have preferred if Apple doesn't collaborate with these regimes and build their systems in such a way that th

I think the judge didn’t specify how equal access needs to be given to alternatives means of payments. It’s very straightforward to design a payments SDK where card data gets stored on the phone and payment providers are forced to use that

I wonder if big cloud providers (AWS, GCP, Azure) have ways to deal with Intel ME or AMD PSP.

Growth is an accounting technicality. We can re-define what growth means by introducing other metrics in the GDP, like population well being, and try as much as possible to de-couple it from energy consumption growth. I think energy is esse

The Dutch system caters for that through the social housing system. There are special companies that get permits to own houses and rent them at cheap prices for disadvantaged groups.

This sounds like a reasonable trade off which doesn’t hVe the risk of uprooting people from their primary residence.

You make a good distinction there and perhaps politicians act as a bit of both. And I also think it's not scalable to vote on all issues that come up, that's why we have politicians full time. But for specific big issues direct de

Term limits are not sufficient and it becomes difficult to get enough politicians with experience. We need a combination of direct democracy and liquid democracy so that people can vote directly on some big issue and quickly shift to a diff

I keep mentioning this like a broken record. In most western democracies we have a disconnect from the will of the people and what legislation gets implemented, caused by representative democracy. We need a more direct way for people to inf

Another great Docker alternative from one of the containerd maintainers (Akihiro Suda) is https://github.com/containerd/nerdctl . It supports compose as well.

But we don't need money, the government can tell us exactly what to do and where to go work, so that way we can run the economy at 100% efficiency. /s

You wouldn't vote for the party that promised to implement it you mean. I would love it if more democracies would enable citizens to vote on important issues like this, similarly to what Switzerland does.

Bitcoin is already used as a payment rails from USD -> BTC (lightning) -> NGN, using Strike wallet and Bitnob. But I don't know how much the spread is. Edit: correction, "already used" is too strong. This is a very new

It look like cryptocurrency is used as a remittance rails, so the actual people in Lebanon receive dollars. It's a great use case.

I think I understand the motivation. Sad state of affairs. We are on our way to total loss of trust in societal institutions, and trying to take full advantage of the incentive structure, without any other considerations. In other words, we

Steam doesn't own the underlying platforms that they are selling on. This is the biggest issue for me regarding Apple. Even with Android, at least you have some escape hatches, although they are not very user friendly.

What is the connection to this piece of news?

While I can't really know for sure, but based on perceived performance and smoothness, most likely M1 + MacOS already does something similar in terms of thread and process prioritisation. iOS has done this for a long time, making sure

We have to prevent deflation so money is cheap, and the tech sector is one of the first in line to get it. We have it good folks, cash in while the music is playing.
