I’m pretttttty sure it originates locally! Why would the U.S. tell China to call us “Meiguo”, and why would China listen?

It seems like what makes sense is protection for trademarks/brands/characters should be infinite, because it’s clear that there’s harm in just letting anybody make their own “Nike” shoes or make a really crappy movie starring “Mic

Although apparently it never actually operated as a trading card exchange… that’s just what the domain was originally “intended” for.

Actually, I just read the chapter on open borders in https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utopia_for_Realists and he argues none of that is true. Open borders (more immigrants) actually increases wealth of the country letti

I’m pretty sure a zipper merge is usually when two lanes merge into one, in that case it’s fine and normal when the actual merging happens at the end, with cars from each lane taking turns to become the final lane (like a zipper). And I’m a

I don’t understand why a site like a news site would EVER time out your session. Or at least not unless there’s been like 6+ months of inactivity. So crazy every time I visit nytimes.com (from the same phone) I have to sign in again.

Except IF the money is being printed to be distributed to everybody, there’s going to be more money in the hands of people who can’t afford picassos and Malibu real estate, and less going to those who can, so I would expect in that scenario

If I were tether themselves, I know I’d be personally market making every usdt trading pair on every major exchange myself. And when people bought my tethers for crypto I’d turn around and sell the crypto for usd and issue more usdt.

I’m not saying tether is fully backed (I think it’s been admitted they’re not), but do people not understand how it even ostensibly works? When people sell other crypto for tether/USDC, they are essentially “buying” tether/USDC. W

The thing is, inflation caused by printing money AND distributing it directly and every to all people is fine… it’s just the most efficient / progressive wealth tax! Even if (printing and then) giving everybody $40K/yr caused, say

My first X (2016) went to the shop 17 times in the first year, all for different issues. It’s now finally more or less working reliably. I got a new X in 2019 and so far it’s had no issues at all.

Oh top of what everybody else mentioned, even in the case of an actual UBI I would expect there to be a bit of a rough transition if it were just flipped on. But soon a new equilibrium would be found, with more people generally doing what m
