It wasn't socialist, it was the extreme case of anti-money-laundering. In some way it was the most strict social-credit-supervisor sees all economy and prevents illegal dealings experiment in a game. You couldn't trade any value

I agree with you and I think it shows a deeper problem. The media has been trying to train people to think in terms of good and bad associations, instead of facts and logic. Some people, as well as AI, have fallen into the mindset that you

If you have probability distribution transition function, it makes sense to want to diagonalize it. And you can't do that without algebraic closure of complex numbers. Even a simple transition matrix of a 3 cycle has complex eigenvalue

Their role is neither representing nor shaping interests. Their role is managing while being accountable. And doing said managing by the least amount of coercion and the maximal amount of convincing. There's no such thing as "repr

Again I understand the mechanism, but I still claim it's not enough to wave your hands and tell the story, calculations matter, and in this case, the quality of calculations is extremely important. You are used to astrophysics where th

I vouched for your comment just to tell you you're probably shadow banned, and I thought you would want to know. (I didn't do it, it was probably done long time ago by a moderator). I just feel bad looking at someone who doesn&#x2

You skipped the part where I explicitly concluded that the effect comes from the difference in temperatures. I don't ignore it, I first understand the zero order - at uniform temperatures, there is no effect of CO2. Which leads to an u

This is physics misunderstanding. There's no such thing as "equilibrium temperature" between two systems. The zeroth law of thermodynamics is that all you need to know in order to tell whether two systems are at thermodynamic

The jacket is preventing heat loss via convection. You literally can't prevent heat loss from radiation. By the zeroth law, an object with specific temperature is at thermal equilibrium with photonic heat bath at the same temperature.

I know that video. The thing is, when you get to this point, it should've been pretty clear for any honest scientists that you shouldn't trust the narrative / story, you should do the full calculation, and be honest about how

No, you're the one misunderstanding the physics. The reflected radiation is in a different spectrum than greenhouse gas absorption spectrum. The greenhouse effect is supposed to be about the difference in thermal radiation absorption f

The narrative is very misleading. There are two directions to look at it: convincing yourself via a convincing story, or convincing yourself via a convincing calculation. The story they tell defies basic thermodynamic intuition, and seems t

Methane naturally turns into CO2 in the atmosphere. Even if it did increase warming more than CO2, once methane emissions reach a steady level, reducing methane emissions won't change a thing, compared to CO2 emissions. This is also si

Digital coins and banks don't mix well, as the recent bank runs have shown. The entire premise of banks is that they know their customers withdrawal and deposit patterns, which are usually independent and not very correlated, and they

It was trained on corpus full of mainstream media lies, why would you have expected otherwise? It's by far the most common deflection in its training set. It's easy to recognize and laugh at the AI replying with the preprogrammed

The climate change movement is the worst of humanity. They hate humans, and everything about it is self-hatred spilling out in destructive ways. CO2 is the least worrying chemical we release into the air. From environmental point of view, p

I could've lived with the COVID printing if the Fed was more careful. There were inflation indications in early 2021 but the Fed used completely nonsense theory of "transitory inflation" which was obviously a lie to nearly ev

There's no such thing as greedflation. This inflation was caused by massive money printing by the Fed of unprecedented proportions, used to fund the Treasury which went on with massive money giving helicopter money. Blaming capitalism

The government is a financial bully. It starts by printing money for itself, and using the value of the money in the present. Then it causes inflation which robs financial value out of everyone who lended to it. The actions of the Fed are e

The banks got to play and invest that money off those depositors. The investment was in government bonds. So essentially, the government got to use those depositors money, and then turned around and gave them back their money. Oh and it al

The media even addressing a subject at all is already something. Critical people can become aware and look for other sources. The real power of the media isn't in how they tell a story, but which story they tell at all. Even as trust i

The key is having an accountable "dictator". There are two interpretations to democracy: you can emphasize "representation", and parliamentary system, or you can emphasize "accountability" and singular leaders.

Automation economic benefits should've manifested as deflation. That's what you'd expect to happen: the costs of doing things are coming down, so should the price. But the prevailing economic theory is that "deflation is

Again you're confusing bank and crypto. They wouldn't need to have their deposits increase. They would need to increase their capital. They weren't underwater before the bank run, they were undercapitalized. Which would mean

See, that's what I started thinking as well. Except banks aren't startups. Banks actually make more money during high interest environment, and they don't need to have increasing deposits to stay alive (that's wrong proj

Let's be real here. No other bank in the world would've collapsed in similar situation. Did SVB lose money and made bad bets? Yes. Could they have raised back money by selling shares and return to solid ground? Also probably yes.
