In the rest of the world the "SLR" is referred to as a "FAL" and it's 7.62x51mm / .308 Winchester ammunition is a "medium" caliber firearm.

Quite a bit weaker than what was used commonly in WW1/WW2 but stronger than the standard 5.56mm / .223 Remington round that is used today by the armed forces. It's still a very common round and used in various applications around the world.

"Quite a long time" is a bit of fear pandering, it's what you would use to kill a deer humanely.

Any sort of a firearm is dangerous when used against people massed in tight quarters.
Many generics in the US do cost around $5 a month or less.

For some drugs, the manufacturers work the system, withdrawing their previous version from the market and launching a new version with some tweak. Withdrawing the old version makes it more difficult for someone else to get permission to manufacture and sell it.

The basic problem is that (the majority of) the engaged, wealthy part of the country gets their insurance from someone else and doesn't give a shit about how much medical stuff costs. And we have a medical system where the primary regulatory impact on prices is from capture.

Stocks do the same thing, and after the split, the stock's price is determined by the market based on how much the new shares diluted the market. Seems like something very similar will happen here, with the difference being each fork will have a differing value determined by the market's exchange rate between forks?

Edit: I think many are missing the point that a fork and the original BTC blockchain are not of equal value. Maybe a more apt analogy would have been countries in the EU leaving and issuing their own currency.

The favorite method of centrist leadership in the recent past has been exporting neoliberalization economic policies and the neoliberalizm of trade deals (think NAFTA).

That's one of the component that's given the US a lot of influence and power dealing with the world. This was aided by how inward the competing powers were.

There's been a backlash against those ideas as foreign policy both inside and outside the US. As evidenced by the current president.

It's my hunch that in the long run the US will miss the privilege and benefits that have come from that asymmetric relationship. 4 or 8 years can be a long time and a lot can happen when were standing still.

Is there a list somewhere of all the bitcoin forks? The wikipedia one doesn't seem to be up to date...
I think the big difference is that companies can choose to split their stock or spin out new companies, but bitcoin forks can be done by basically anyone.
The tax situation is interesting. Many believe that you owe taxes as soon as the funds for a bitcon fork are available to you. For someone with bitcoin in a private wallet that's instantly. For someone with bitcoin in an exchange that's whenever the exchange implements the coin or you withdraw to a private wallet.

For example bitcoin cash was forked August 1, 2017 but coinbase didn't implement it until December 19, 2017.

Some argue thinking of forks as a stock split is incorrect.

"""
Should it be treated as a split of BTC?

That seems incorrect and complicated. If you half the value of your BTC holdings and sell them, you will incur more gains. However, could you determine how much were short-term and long-term? The BCH would also be classed as income at this point, since it now has a value, and so will incur income taxes. Unlike stocks that split, BCH and BTC are separate digital assets that have no common markets, and will have different values going forward.

It's funny, that's how things should work, but the crypto space has been so irrational it is not how things have effectively been priced in other splits. For example, Bitcoin Cash's split ended up being free money for consumers, which doesn't make sense in a rational market. Bitcoin Cash split from Bitcoin, but Bitcoin actually maintained value (and went up soon after). I'll wager most of these will have little affect on the price of Bitcoin. Often, the bigger issue is that no exchanges offer pairs for the new Bitcoin forks, so they're basically useless.
But the article shows GNU grep actually looks ‘behind the curtain’ and identifies that input and output are the same file, then refuses to play. So everything is a file, but some are more filey than others.
To be fair, stock splitting does not result in another entity being spawned (e.g., Apple didn't split into say, Apple and Apple "Cash" like Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash). So in that sense, it is a bit different.
Thanks for doing the hard work so we don’t have too. :)

Netflix generates $8B revenue with 3k staff, when Time Warner generates $28B with 25k staff. Both net income are equivalent ($3B). Both valuations are equivalent (100B). Dividends are equivalent. I don't see any bubble.

I'm afraid you're wrong there. Browser games are wildly popular around the world, even 3d ones.

You're also failing to mention that <object> required non-standard third-party plugins installed. The novelty of <video> is that browsers are supposed to guarantee those tags will work all the time, without any extra effort required. That is a big step forward, although more from a political rather than technical point of view. It's a dramatic step forward in security, among other things.

> Nothing has significantly changed in the last decade

Sounds very much like "any technology introduced before you're 30 is natural and necessary; anything developed later is an abomination and should be banned" :)

I hate to say it, but the world has changed in the last decade: the iPhone happened. People now experience computing through mobile first. GMail and GMaps had already changed what people expect from the web, but mobile completed the upheaval.

We can disagree on the direction of travel (JS becoming the assembly of the web is, imho, a perversion; like http 2, it feels like an expensive hack implemented on top of technologies that were not meant to be used like that), but saying that nothing has changed is simply wrong.
Not sure why your getting downvoted. The article largely tries to debunk TD exists because 'no recognised economist of any school of thought has ever had any such theory or made any such proposal'

TD has been referred plenty, not under than name. You'll find a bunch of economist views (positive and negative) under supply side theories which is often steeped in trickle down theory.

And then the article promotes TD under the logic; "the sequence of payments is directly the opposite of what is assumed by those who talk about a ‘trickle down’ theory. The workers must be paid first and then the profits flow upward later – if at all." based on a couple of examples and his loose theory without any real research.

There are plenty of proper studies to the contrary available with an easy google.

Just a quick note - most of the larger aircraft with autopilots are most often flown under IFR (Instrument Flight Rules), which means that there is someone else (Air Traffic Controllers) managing all of the routing and collision avoidance for them.

Even pilots in IFR conditions are doing little more than maintaining a particular altitude and heading.

This means that a aircraft and vehicle autopilot have very different requirements. They are not, at all, doing the exact same things.
Interesting research.
My good friend is a material scientist for Exxon. He is employed to find "the next oil". As he says, its all about "joules of energy per $1 landed cost" everything else is just noise.

Currently, $1 (retail price) of gasoline delivers more joules of energy than any of the competition. The rise of fracking has made nat gas a contender, but gasoline is still dominates.

Most comparisons to electric vehicles are actually a comparison of a car that runs on gas vs a car that runs on coal, guess which one wins?

I'm a (happy) Hetzner customer. A few years ago I ran some services with easily guessable/forceable passwords and my host turned into a node of a cracking botnet for a day or two.

Hetzner got nasty mails from a couple of "victim" sites, forwarded them to me, helped me clean house and everything was fixed and airtight within hours.

Granted, a big part of that answer is that it's a limited market when weighed next to the costs of design, prototyping, tooling, production, etc.

I’m Danish. I did specify “native > English > ..,” though, so I figured that gave the non-English native thing away.

In everyday usage English is still important and will remain so for years to come. But if you’re looking for languages with professional application Chinese is at the top.
Roger Ebert said it was due to a Film Critic seeing 2-3 movies a Day. If you are seeing that many movies, you start to yearn for something different and challanging. If you see at most 1-3 movies a month on a good month, you tend to be ok with "just" entertaining movies. Also critics like to see movies that move the artform forward in some way. So while Bright on Netflix is a very servicable by the numbers movie, it is not really doing anything outside the box.

But I just have a constant temptation to code instead of work on all that because I love it to the point where it is almost compulsive.

I understand the idealogical reasons for, say, Bitcoin Cash arising as an attempt to bring transaction times and fees crashing down while increasing network capacity to the existing 'currency'.
