Just as spotify for music has almost everything, "spotify for journals" needs to have 80-90%+ coverage or it is an annoying waste of time.

The banks seem to have won the propaganda war about bailouts preventing economic collapse pretty well. I guess once the government makes the bailout and the banks accept the bailout, both parties are pretty committed to ensuring the public

More and more I think that US/europe should adopt expat worker models. Having a bunch of chinese companies bidding on this sort of work and then bringing over ships full of temporary workers and equipment to do the job seems to make s

Big picture time: 1) Do you think in 50 years there will be 150 nation state currencies or mainly a single global one? 2) Do you think the world superpowers (china, russia, US) will refuse to let another superpower's currency become th

Ironically the only ethereum dApp which people actually use - EtherDelta decentralized exchange - was never ICO'd and makes piles of money. The incentives for token sales are to raise as much Eth as you can, spend as little of it as po

When the underlying value of the ETH/BTC has appreciated significantly, and the likely value of the Tezos token has plummeted, trying to extract core investment is reasonable. Personally I would do it quietly, with good legal backing,

Completely agree. It is further warped by the fact that although the anti-interventionalists are probably right, the interventionalists are the ones who do all the consulting and take all the jobs and give all the advice - because they are

Also, QE has involved giving banks trillions of dollars. The banks then either sit on the money, or use it to inflate the stock market and property markets. The stock market triples or quadruples and everyone says the economy is going we

A few options - in practice you would probably do some/all of these: 1) Put them through a mixer 2) Put them through an anonymous exchanger like shapeshift and convert into a privacy focused cryptocurrency like monero/zcash 3) Se

Exactly. If he tokenizes his house and then a russian hacks his laptop and steals all his tokens, what happens then? Will he move out and send his keys to moscow? Ownership ledgers are significant because they have a legal basis and state

The liquidity offered by the token model means that early VC/hedgefund backers often get heavily discounted tokens in the presale, and can then turn round a month or two later and dump a portion of their tokens on public investors for

It seems silly to say that delivery food must be prepared in the back of a restaurant, on prime real estate, in the midst of sit-down diners. People talked about the possibility of uber-for-food or "food-sharing", where the lady

Great, so now the frozen IPO market means that all the growth from tech unicorns gets captured by saudi oil sheiks. thanks SEC/SV!

The unintended consequences of the SEC forcing ICOs away from representing equity towards "use tokens" is that investors lose any rights at all. The SEC is fucking up pretty hard at the moment and doing real damage. Their actions

Bitcoin market cap is around 92 billion, 2/3rds of IBM. If bitcoin becomes the global reserve currency, that will probably go to 10 trillion, a ~100x gain. If you think bitcoin has >1% chance of becoming the global reserve currency,

I really think that an 8 seater vehicle running uberpool will be the sweet spot here. Buses are slow and annoying and crap. I think algorithmically directed minibuses will be the gamechanger.

Solution to the Equifax debacle: 1) If the value of the individual damages related to this breach are in excess of the market cap of the equifax company, all company stock should be seized and distributed equally among those affected by the
