Boy, I really wouldn't want to work with you. The unfortunate situation to which you're referring was the result of trying to mitigate a microtransaction attack that was happening on the blockchain. It was a rock and a hard plac

I agree with this revision. It's important to frame your fight in terms of intellectual freedom within the academy, which is perhaps a conceptual framework your faculty can comprehend. Yale does not have any de facto obligation with

Actually, that's precisely the opposite of my point. To have value, an abstraction need not have "uses" in a pragmatic sense. It's easy to list some more common things of ascribed value that have no clear use: hobby co

A significant portion of the commenters in this thread are asking why Dogecoin has any value at all, as if for the first time grappling with the abstraction of value. Dogecoin has value, like any currency, because a number of people believ

Your point is generally valid, if a bit tinfoiled, but their hand was particularly forced this time by Snowden. If you'll recall the recent history, Snowden was spooked by his interaction with Gellman -- particularly regarding publish

Just to be clear, coming up with this pretty obvious hoax to get out of a final exam isn't a good sign of brilliance. Let's not fool ourselves about the population distribution of intelligence at any institution, and the fact tha

Google, as a publicly traded company, has an obligation to maximize profit for shareholders — and there’s nothing wrong with that! Why is there always this knee-jerk instinct to disclaim any critique of unfettered capital? It unhinges th

Sorry, what? I can tell you're trolling, but the thread is discussing FDA oversight of sales of medical products. Are you suggesting that the USA was founded on the premise of snake oil sales? This has nothing to do with a medical m

Come now. We don't have a society in which everyone is equipped to debug a company's website for them. The point of oversight in medical markets is to manage the risk that innocent people are victimized by a company's mista
