> Why wouldn't labor markets decrease? Isn't that the principle idea floating by UBI advocates entirely throughout this thread?

They will, and I never said they wouldn't. The problem with your "theory" is that they are going to decrease at a 1:1 ratio with increase in labor costs from the UBI resulting in an overall "0 gain" from the UBI.

> No, all money will devalue with the increase in supply and increase in labor costs. That's pretty basic economics.

True, but that's not the argument you are making. You are arguing that nobody will be better off because the decrease in available labor will be entirely offset by the increased costs in goods/services based exclusively off of labor losses from the UBI.

That is a nonsensical argument. There is ZERO evidence to support it. The overwhelming likelihood is that the price goods will increase, but no where near enough to offset the UBI. The remaining difference in the economy will come from wealth redistribution.

In Belgium it isn't. What is often the case, though, is that you commit other crimes while escaping prison (stealing government property, violence or threats on guards, etc.) for which you're accountable.
Actually, after a quick examination of the Go libraries, I'm not sure I can agree that it's "idiomatic Go". I still see many things that strike me as "artifacts of the C conversion" more than "the way someone would have written this from scratch".

The careful package split is something to be copied, though.

Murder is "not a crime" if self defense in most countries. And while we certainly have our debates about when it counts as self defense very few people seem to discount the notion entirely.
In theory, neither the store or those in need would want to deal with the hassle of theft being the way to deal with the ruling. My guess is stories would just start giving food to the hungry as needed, and then past the costs onto the customers.

Why would this not work?
The assumption that people are lying unless proven otherwise is... well it just opens the door to a whole world of problems. It's also distasteful and ugly.

For me at least, it doesn't make any sense that Satoshi wouldn't reveal his own identity in the first place. Almost nothing about this story makes sense, and we have to deal with a lot of conjecture and misinformation.

No, it's just no longer a crime - IF you were hungry. You'll still get arrested and put through a lengthy trial process if you're caught stealing food. The shop can decide to let the thief have the food, or take it away from them, or call the cops.

Theft is commonplace in markets and supermarkets. It's calculated into the cost of doing business. Back when I was a teenager working in a supermarket, one store claimed 15% of its revenue was lost to theft every year. (Its prices were also among the highest for any food store, so i'm sure they still did well)

I doubt they'll just let people ransack their stories, but they may decide to be more lenient in terms of calling the cops when they catch them.

Fun anecdote: Working in front of the store, you would sometimes notice people trying to pull scams. The best scam I ever witnessed was over chicken nuggets. There was one guy finishing paying for some food, one cashier, and me bagging the food. Right as this first guy was paying for his food, another came up right behind me and barked in my ear that he couldn't find something in the frozen food aisle. I turned and tried to explain where to find his item. When I turned back around, the last item for the current customer - a box of frozen chicken nuggets - had.... disappeared. Just gone off the counter. The customer was still there, though, and the cashier hadn't seen anything. So we had to get him a new item. It wasn't until he and the distracting guy left that we realized they were working together.

I love the WedWell concept - saying I've been a bridesmaid in five weddings and a guest at countless others, I saw firsthand the laborious process that close friends go through when planning their wedding. So many details, so many vendors to choose from. I like how this process helps to streamline the overwhelming and time consuming process of planning a wedding from the very beginning. There's also great incentive for vendors to come on board and deliver good service through the ratings system. I also appreciate that the bidding/contest is only one week long, allowing busy professionals to continue on with their lives and not spend every waking moment planning their wedding.

One merely has to wonder whether a starving homeless man can be prosecuted for "stealing" from another starving homeless man? Do we need to judge who was more starving?
In practice I imagine it will result in homeless (or generally poor-looking) people being routinely banned from stores in Italy.

It's not true in any way, technical or otherwise.
So, if you are proved to be poor or hungry (whatever that means), does it give you a green light to steal? Maybe, let's say, steal 10 times a day from 10 different shops, and resell the goods for half the price and use the money for something else?

I mean that's a lovely headline and all, but in startups lingo, it doesn't scale.
Considering the massive amounts of food that gets thrown away even before the expiration date, I'm amazed this is even an issue. There was an entire episode of "Last Week Tonight" on this topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8xwLWb0lLY
Having economic shackles as the only incentive to keep two unhappy people together for longer than necessary seems like a terrible environment in which to raise happy and healthy children. Having experienced that as a child, it was miserable and set me up with unhealthy ideas about relationships.

Might as well make divorce illegal again. After all, something nicer might come along.

If the only thing holding your marriage together is needing to pay the bills or a judge, being forced to stay together only serves to make people like you feel righteous.

Your comment makes me wonder about what other unhealthy ideas about relationships you want to force upon others. Perhaps you should spend less time on r/MRAs and r/TheRedPill.

> So with everyone getting free money, including the children, there is no need for a father to take care of the family when he decides to diforce, right?

Having to pay child care costs and alimony above the poverty line are things that exist now and will have reason to exist even if a BI is implemented.
I'm not seeing the same logic you are. If someone is hungry (or pretending to be), why would they want to break into your home and sleep in your bed, rather than steal food?
Agreed- like a 3 seater with a bit of luggage... Like a car "pod" for city use only.

Les Misérables

Edit: With appreciation to lorenzhs
We'll probably never know, but god, these story lines are getting a bit ridiculous.

We have stories of Wright orchestrating complex staged technology theatre which involves hijacking DNS on a wifi network he controls and forcing an unaltered Electrum client on a clean laptop to connect to bitcoin nodes that he controls to fake the signature verification for Gavin. We're talking about 2 or 3 different MITM attacks necessary to pull off such a stunt, in front of people who obviously understand Bitcoin and are skeptical because of the December story.

I just think the speculation on possible stories for what really happened is getting a little out of hand.
I don't think anyone is saying poor people should be allowed to rob banks or mug people. The article is about stealing small amounts of food to stave off hunger.

RIP. Buckyballs have a ton of potential on the materials science world, and it's sad to hear that a pioneer is gone.
Can you be more specific?

Sorry, it wasn't my part of the project so I can't offer much detail. I know they never got as far as a Node build that passed the full test suite on some platforms. Many of the problems seemed to be around how floating point is handled on different types of CPU.

Compared to what exactly? I don't see any mainstream dynamic language except Lua doing better. Ruby? Python?

The total footprint for Node and supporting packages was taking up a few GB more than the equivalents for some of those other languages you mentioned. If you're working on a system where your non-volatile storage is something like a microSD card or flash chip, "a few GB" can be a huge difference.

If you do need native modules, the situation is slightly worse than C or C++, but not significantly: you generally need to build on a machine with the same architecture (Setting up cross-compilation with C isn't very easy either)

Sorry, our experience has been very different on both counts. Building on a machine with the same architecture isn't necessarily a reasonable option if you're targeting platforms that aren't general purpose computers, and at best probably means jumping through a lot of hoops and figuring out a lot of the details for yourself. In contrast, cross-compiling a language like C is straightforward and reliable, the tools for doing it are mature and well documented, and many developers who have worked in embedded systems are familiar with the techniques.

P.S. Based on what you said, I have a hunch that most of your troubles came from this module: https://github.com/mapbox/node-sqlite3 - is that right?

No. The person doing the Node version was trying to use some of the NoSQL tools, and seemed to be spending much of their time documenting and implementing things you get as standard with a SQL database. The person who wrote the C based alternative just used SQLite as a demonstration of how much easier and more robust everything could be using a different database instead.

One of the striking ironies of the project was that although in principle a dynamic language like Node doesn't need a compilation step, just the JS source, while C code has to be compiled for every target platform, the reality was that getting the C code running was dramatically easier. A well-made C library like SQLite could be installed, cross-compiled and running on all the required platforms within literally a few minutes, while Node and several major packages were so flaky that the equivalent level of real world functionality was never achieved even after several months of work. Again just for comparison, some of those other dynamic languages you mentioned were in between but much closer to the shorter end of the spectrum. The Node ecosystem, in our experience, proved to be an exceptionally bad choice for this sort of work.
A Possible Cure for Japan's Low Inflation
It's true that the *AA's create a lot of perverse incentives, but I don't think it's that complex. If people can get what they want legally they generally will. If they can't, they are more likely to get it illegally anyway. I don't think the desire for a piece of content has to get very high before people are willing to pirate it.

But if the food is locked away, it's presumably still a crime to damage property and/or bypass a lock to obtain the food. So this interpretation of the law creates an incentive for grocers to keep food out of reach.

And thirst being even more basic than hunger, is it excusable to steal beer when desperately dehydrated or just bottled water?

If food is deemed an inalienable right, then a tax to feed the hungry seems like a better way to avoid legal inconsistency.
I've tried this (or similar, own implementation), but got stock on weird requirements that some services imposed. In about 50% of cases, I had to modify generated password anyway (usually make it shorter). So instead of remembering password, I had to remember what restriction which service had.

Logically I can't see why trying to escape from prison would be an offence in itself anyway. If somebody successfully did it they wouldn't have undertaken the punishment for the original crime though, so you'd send them back to prison for that, and wouldn't give them any time off for good behaviour
technically it is more true than anything else

It's a private business, why shouldn't they be allowed to decide who to allow into their own store?
It's not disingenuous though. In my personal experience, many liberals do in fact oppose basic income.

Don't forget that public sector unions (ie. the people administering all the existing entitlement programs) are a major liberal constituency.

> I would like Basic Income to be a bit more than $10,000 per year, though. Ideally, especially when the number of jobs available falls due to increased automation, I'd like the Basic Income to provide a comfortable income.

There are plenty of places in the country where $10k is more than enough to live on. One of the biggest benefits of UBI would be that we can start moving more people to the massive areas of our country where there's low COL and few jobs.
Thnking what it feels like to be hungry for 3 days and no money to buy food.
The act of escape itself is legal in Germany. Other acts committed during escape, such as destruction of property are of course not, so in practice it is probably rare for a caught escapee not to receive additional punishment.
some people are just secretive. I liken Satoshi's disappearance to that of _why and as such I find it very odd that they would go to all this trouble into tricking us into thinking they're not Satoshi Nakamoto when they could have just never revealed themselves in the first place.

In short, if you are Satoshi, what's the point of deceiving everyone into thinking you aren't when the only reason people think you are is because you chose to say so?

That's quite the accomplishment, and is by far not the norm. I am 25 and have only been financially independent since 23, and even I am the anomaly amongst my peers.

I don't see what's wrong with my stereotype in this case. Most people under 25 are not financially independent, and it's mainly due to the society we live in, not the children themselves.

When my Dad was growing up, people had full time jobs at 16 years old and were married with kids by 25, where as today, the average person doesn't even graduate college before 23.

I'm not blaming the children for that.
But kind of fun! With Bitcoin, even the things we know for certain are ridiculous.

The volunteers warmed up for two minutes on stationary bicycles,
then pedaled as hard as possible for 20 seconds; rode at a very slow
pace for two minutes, sprinted all-out again for 20 seconds;
recovered with slow riding for another two minutes; pedaled all-out
for a final 20 seconds; then cooled down for three minutes. The
entire workout lasted 10 minutes, with only one minute of that time
being strenuous.

So it's:
