>The lawsuit doesn’t contend that the reporting is inaccurate, the complaint hinges on it being correct. This seems contradictory. You're saying that the lawsuit doesn't say the report is inaccurate, but rather that it's n

What should we be more skeptical about, specifically? The negative claims I've heard are all easily verifiable. I saw the Elon tweet myself, and the lawsuit against Media Matters fully concedes that ads were being served next to Nazi c

Nothing in that article backs up anything you've claimed. Seems safe to conclude that you don't have any actual sources, and that you're making up the facts you've been asserting ITT. Feel free to make me look stupid by

No, using the power of the legal system to silence speech you don't like is pretty much the polar opposite of being compatible with free speech.

You're making a lot of claims ITT about the Media Matters case. Do you have sources for those claims? I haven't noticed you posting any sources to back up any of your claims. If you're going to make a factual assertion, it he

What's your source for these claims? Can you link to it, please?

Who decides if they've done their job? And what sort of objective measurements would be used to determine that?

> I'll be sure to have the cartels sign my EULA before proceeding with anything. There it is. I knew it couldn't be real. Thank god. No joke, I was actually worrying about you lol. Well done.

> I'm not interested in making money from this. Sure, but is there some component of this at all through which you might gain something?

Just some friendly advice man, I seriously doubt your company wants to be associated with any of this, so you may want to take them out of your profile. The west coast is waking up soon, don't wait around to do it.

What is the benefit for you personally to do this? Do you see a potential business opportunity or something?

I'm not saying that federal agents are more dangerous than drug cartels. I'm saying that you're going to end up being arrested before you get the chance to find out.

by valar_m 3y ago
Don't stress about the cartel. You'll be arrested long before you ever get into contact with them. Instead, here a few things to help minimize the number of years you'll spend in prison away from your daughter and the rest of

Because it's invaluable during a job search. A person can easily apply to 50 jobs in one evening through LinkedIn. A decade or so ago, that could take a full week of work or more. Each individual company you applied to would require yo

What do you suggest that a "useful idiot" like myself should do? I read your other comments, and all I see are doomsday predictions about us losing our jobs. In another comment you said: > Once all the tools are processes are e

Do protests ever actually happen organically? I guess I always just assumed people organized protests on purpose. How else would everyone know where to show up?

Yep, terrible advice, my friend. I know that because it's what my dad said to me at that age. It's been 20 years and I'm still processing the trauma of horrific bullying.

Reckless and wholly unqualified armchair psychologist here. Seems like this isn't really about wasted compute power at all and more about feeling like you aren't working on something that matters.

That seems even more odd to me. You're saying that, because it is possible that some undefined company that Coindesk previously spoke positively about may be committing fraud, their coverage of an entirely different, unrelated company

Well, FTX is unique in the crypto space in that there has never been a loss of funds anywhere near the magnitude of this debacle. Odd to me that anyone would look at a company that managed to lose billions of customer and investor dolla
