> if the market crashed that low for a decade, you would see massive regime change in every democratic nation and the rich would be stripped bare

That wouldn't happen at all in fact. We've already recently seen that kind of economic pain on a protracted time frame. See: 1967 to 1982, a time in which inflation adjusted the S&P 500 lost 2/3 of its value. Stagflation, high unemployment, high inflation, economic chaos, price controls, war in vietnam, societal upheaval, smashed real estate values - that era saw it all. The rich were not stripped bare at all.

Spain just went through an extraordinarily painful depression, the likes of which the US hasn't seen in 80 years. The rich were not stripped bare, Amancio Ortega is worth $76 billion. Portugal went through something similar. Greece arguably had it even worse. The rich were not stripped bare.

Russia is a klepto-state that freely takes whatever it wants from the private economy. They just went through a severe recession that set their economic standing back ten years, the oligarchs were not stripped bare.

Japan saw net negative economic growth over 20 years, while the median standard of living in Japan dropped by more than 1/3 thanks to currency debasement and high taxes vs no growth. The rich were not stripped bare.

You'll of course notice the common theme across all these different cultures.

I don't understand what the first sentence of your reply is supposed to mean, but the second sentence is a very mature response and belies your wisdom: yes, science and rational thinking is all about putting ideas out there and rejoicing when somebody helps you etch away at those that are not compatible with reality, so that only plausible ones remain.

It sounds like you are talking to different people, who all think different things...

I personally see cryptocurrencies as a decentralized way to transact money. Yes, bitcoin is failing in this area currently, and while they have plans on how to fix it, they are not going to get here soon enough to keep this valuation up in my mind. If you ask a friend of mine, he will tell you that he has always thought of cryptocurrencies as a way of storing value, since the inability to do chargebacks means he doesn't want to use it as his daily currency ever.

Both of us can be right, because it's an opinion.

And there hasn't been an 80% price drop at this time, and coinbase doesn't have "hundreds of cryptocurrencies", they have 4 (3 up until a day or 2 ago).

- content can be easily viewed

- no arbitary restrictions (oh, you are watching from Sweden? Oh, you only get a downsampled version with baked in subtitles covering half of the screen etc.)

There are two kinds of rarity. There is rarity of the thing itself and rarity of things like the thing. Consider an extremely rare thing used for some industrial application. It is very expensive because there is little supply. But if there is another thing that functions just as well then the price of the first thing drops, even though the supply of that thing is fixed.

The only differences between bitcoin and bitcoin2 after a fork are the miners. If the number of miners is sufficiently large to be confident in transactions, original bitcoins and bitcoin2s are just as good at being used for whatever. This is even worse if bitcoin2 has some new desirable properties that bitcoin does not have.

They also made a c lib for their instruction set. Saw some impressive speedups compared to normal risc v (x12?), x86 (x5?) and fermi gpus (x10?) (In the hpc challenge where they did have to update some of the code, obviously, to use their instructions).

We have enough money, if we get our costs under control. Our capital costs (and operating costs...actually everything) are much higher than most other cities/countries. Some good analysis here[1], in addition to this series the NY Times is running.

I'm not uptight or anything, but it bothers me when people allegedly (see, i'm doubting you already) put in so much work and then shoot themselves in the foot with shenanigans for half a laugh. First impressions, and such...

This often bothers me, and obviously when i was cooler and in college I did it to. Aaaaaand it didn't get me anywhere. In this particular case, we're talking real-estate? big money, important purchase, long-term debts. It especially doesn't fit.
I think there is an important point which is ignored, in the article and here in the thread: typos.

Unfortunately, when designing a login flow (and a signup one), you can’t assume that the user always inputs the right things.

Try logging in into facebook, for example, mistyping gmail or with your password with the wrong case, like all uppercase. In many cases... you get in! This is to prove that they had to “improve” their flow to account for wrong user input.

Because user input can be wrong in both email or password, the error message should account for both.

Sure those things help give value to the dollar by increasing its demand. Whether of not this constitutes "backing" depends on the definition of backing. There is no underlying asset that directly backs the dollar, which is the whole point of fiat currencies.

The fundamental source of demand is the requirement that US Taxes must be paid in dollars. The utility of using dollars to trade with the US economy is simply a consequence of this fact.
It's not my area of expertise, but I believe it's perhaps easier to raise money now than at any time in the past.

"price" doesn't really describe this concept well. It's more like .. trying to judge the value of your laptop, by looking at what identical models have sold for on ebay.

This is where the "supply vs demand" adage comes in. If there's 1000 copies of your laptop on ebay, and one person trying to buy one, then its a buyer's marker - the cheapest auction sells, and the market value of your laptop just fell.

But if there's thousands of people trying to buy one or two copies of your laptop, then its a seller's market - the highest bidders get their laptops, and the market value of your laptop rises.

So (ignoring deprecation/inflation) your laptop didn't actually change. Its intrinsic value, if any, didn't change. But the market's position towards your laptop did, and how much you believe it'd fetch at auction right now, did.
Only developers without Android experience can think there is some kind of desktop victory with Android.

Linux kernel is pretty much hidden from userland, including C and C++ code.

Google can easily replace Linux with any kernel that offers the POSIX subset required by Android. Everything else are just libc, libc++ and Android specific native libraries.

Only OEMs writting Android drivers would notice the difference.

The humbleness of the bechdel test is great.

Expecting 50% or more women should has different results and is less comparable. With the exception of movies with very small casts, it's always a real shame to fail the bechdel test. The 50% rules are shameful in their result (100% failed), but even in an ideal world, half of the movies could fail it without anything wrong.

I'm curious how much money is needed. Why is it that Japan, Hong Kong and most developed European cities have much better rail transportation ? I don't think money is the only issue. NYC is probably one of the richest cities in the world and yet you say they don't have the money to fix this ?

Yes, and it was bad enough that I decided to never ever buy from that company again. For the record, I did have the displeasure of using an AMD GPU in 2010, because that's what my employer at the time purchased, and it was only slightly more stable. I am absolutely convinced that nobody except nVidia can produce stable, working video drivers. The last 14 years haven't produced a counter-example.
What’s the point of having passwords at all? If there’s a password reset mechanism they provide no additional security. Just send a one time login token to the email.

Having a password just increases the odds of a hack by the user accidentally exposing it.

On a social media site where people want at least some privacy, this is a bad idea. On a dating site where people would rather not tell others they're looking for relationships? This is just a suicidally bad idea.

How many people interested in same sex relationships are going to be outed by this? How many with 'unusual' kinks and preferences are now potentially opened up to stalkers, ridicule or real life pressures? Heck, how many people in general are going to get crap simply for being on a site like this at all?

Using real names on a dating site is utterly stupid, and shows the people at OK Cupid have no idea what they're doing with their own site.

I think you're confusing "correct" and "exists" or "was entered deliberately." A password can only be correct or not for a given account. If the password differs from the one recorded for the user you specified, it is incorrect. It doesn't matter if there's some other place where that password does exist.

A system that used an "existence" or "user intended to type this" concept of password correctness would be either unimplementable or insecure to the point of uselessness.

And I think it is wrong. On initial offering, it moves money to a potential value adding activity. Even after that, stock can be used as an incentive to increase productivity (and hence add value to an economy). Certainly a single trade is in some sense "zero-sum", but the entire point is to provide efficient access to capital that can be (and is) used productively.

There are two big factors driving it:

(1) Branding-- many companies actually maintain a faux office in the Bay Area because having a Palo Alto or Menlo Park address makes you look smarter or more legit.

(2) Investors-- talent and opportunity is everywhere, but smart tech investors are super-concentrated in the Bay Area. The further you get from it the less knowledgeable and more conservative the investment climate becomes.

In the long term I think (1) will fade and (2) will get disrupted by crowd funding.

There seems to be missing something in your story to show danger.

They just asked for his cash, nothing show any sign in danger in that. Would you pull out a gun because someone asked you for food too?

Was there a threat? Which kind of threat? Did it look like these guys had the means to carry that threat and did it look like they actually were going to carry that threat?

I wouldn't kill a guy in hope to get a few thousand dollars. There are cars that are worth much more than I could steal and risk much less than a homicide sentence (which I guess is pretty high in Arizona).

I don't believe his life was in danger, but I'm also not living in a country where people think their life is constantly in danger and they have to carry gun for their safety. That mentality is dangerous in itself and may justify itself sadly. Having a gun in any interaction escalate way too quickly any risk.

I agree with everything you've said here, and I believe most science and most scientists operate in the way you describe.

>By the way, your premise that "skepticism and science can't be trusted" is a straw man. I didn't say that.

Fair enough, but that does seem to a the general theme of this subthread.

>To believe any one tool of reasoning is infinitely powerful, strikes me as zealous and closed-minded.

Yes, but no one is actually making that claim about science. I'm certainly not, and I doubt most scientists do, either.

So, to the best of anyone's knowledge, the current models of physics appear true enough that photographic or video evidence of UFOs alone are not sufficient to discredit them. Those models may be inaccurate, as all models are, but there's no reason to believe they're entirely wrong.
