Block chain doesn't replace trust. If you are strong enough, i.e. control enough mining activity, you pretty much can do whatever you want. All it does, is formalize the same solutions for trust society has evolved. The downside is th

Well, OTH, where I come from there's no such directive, and we routinly see cases where a wife gets killed even after police is involved and the husband comes back home. These women's life are OVER not ruined. And the physical rea

Well, there you have it. When people are cornered into an impossible situation, they'll do anything to get out.

It's not enough for the two people to trust each other because they have parents friends etc. These people, and societies norms are a huge influence on the decision to get married. But I do think at the end it all boils down to trust.

With the GOP his power is substantial. He is dangerous to Israel and the US. Dark times :(

The US is actively encouraging this business and these weapon deals. If interested in it, the US could thwart it in a second.

Oh, that's such formal crap. The Founders are Israeli, RND is Israeli, most employees are Israelis in israel. It's an Israeli company. As an Israeli with very similar background to the people who work there I'm ashamed of ou

I find the entire media expo system, web or not, to be like this. TV is 100% paid content, be it actual commercials, product placements, bought editorials or just a media mogul manipulating public perception for his business interests. Best

The main difference is the isn't any speculation involved. No one have the financial incentive to create artificial scarcity. This is a major advantage when talking about the most basic of life needs.

If you cheat good enough you can amass power which will make your cheating more effective. Not sure why say that repeated interactions lead towards cooperation. It can lead towards submission as easily as cooperation.

This is not a research institute, it's a division in a for profit global corporation. I'm frankly disgusted that people who call themselves researchers of the humanities go work in this sort of obvious PR stunt of an "institu

So odd, why does google employ these researchers? Isn't it obvious it's just a vacuous PR stunt? What self respecting researcher gives his name to a corporate entity and expects anything but being used to woke-wash the company? Th

I don't understand this trivializing of her work. Her project is innovative in teaching programming and is a product of research and she coined its name. Same goes for TDD, it's an innovation in the approach to coding, and someone

Perhaps, I use WhatsApp daily and was never harrased, spammed or sent child porn. Although, I still don't understand why a block wouldn't suffice. If the same user is harrasing you, and you block it then problem solved. If it&#x27

There are plenty of published articles depicting the working conditions at amazon warehouses. there are worker willing to unionize (which is a hard and difficult thing to do) calling out on these conditions. You picked a single piece of th

So basically you have no idea about what the situation is (nor do I) but you choose to believe that Amazon is in the right. That's called bias.

It seems there's a huge difference if your data is collected when you engage in a private activity (i.e. was not intended for public consumption)and participating in a public event where your behaviour is intended to be consumed by the

Why do you think what people do is a better indication of what they want as oppose to what they say they want? For example, some addict wants to quit, but continue to abuse. I think a lot of modern tech is designed to make us addicts. So it

Our winters here are pretty easy, and we don't have uber eats. But seriously, my very near ancestors were strong, they survived the holocaust. Their life were miserable, with lingering effects even after the holocaust. I don't wis

Yes, seroiusly. It's our duty to not deteriorate back to the stone age. Why is planning for doom a better avenue than actively working to avoid doom and make the world more sustainably comfortable?

Then block them. When is reporting necessary? When someone calls your mobile and harasses you, you block their number. If it's criminal harassment that won't end, you call the police. Who needs reporting for directessages, this is

To be fair, zoom feels the same. Utterly incoherent and ugly UI without any thought for UX. But it gained a lot of traction. So maybe it's not that important.

What can't you just block him? Why is the a report option at all? These are direct messages, why are they treating it like a public platform?

That's very naive. Facebook works very closely with governments and have big interests that may coincide with some despot interest. Which means they are in a position to silence opposition as a favor for some government.

Friendship rhetorics between EU and US is not rare, it's the norm. Nations can be friendly.
