> no video reviews in soccer

It's interesting to compare that to cricket. Umpires can direct decisions to the "third umpire", and teams have a limited number of reviews (which they can ask the third umpire to review the decision), and the third umpire has access to replays (including slow-motion), Snickometer (microphones detecting the sound of the ball hitting the bat/player), Hot-Spot (thermal imaging cameras showing where the ball struck), and Hawk-eye (ball trajectory tracking).

Giving away the company's secret sauce
It probably is self-solving, but probably not over useful timescales.

Further - it seems like the people truly making the decisions (i.e., the people deciding to keep company headquarters in SF rather than moving) are in a better economic position than the entry-level people who pay for those decisions in quality of life.
> Take eBay or Amazon for example, the entirety of their business can be run as decentralized smart contract software.

What advantage would that offer? How would that handle scams, and what reason do we have to think it would be cheaper?

Reliabky recording and auditing transactions has been a solved problem for a long time so a key question would be how a proposed solution would be cheaper or more reliable in a human-meaningful manner. As an example, a common non-answer is fraud but with smart contracts that requires a trusted third party so it’d be important to show that this would be cheaper than paying Amazon to fill that role.

Maybe it’s time to rethink our collective focus on safety as the most important attribute in everything we do.

We in the “first world” live in the safest period in human history, but we are constantly being fed the idea that we are not safe enough, and we always need to do more. The UK is collectively freaking out about knives and other implements that are only “weapons” if you squint just right[0], and parents in the United States risk being arrested for letting their children walk to the park[1].

I’m not saying we should start freebasing (either kind) on the side of an active volcano, but as safe as we are, we could accomplish amazing things in space flight, medical technology, and food production if we just allow, or even encourage, more informed risk taking.

Idk about this guy’s methodology. Falls apart in the last section because Binance does not have much wash trading going on, whereas HitBTC is full of fake volume wash trading. It’s easy to observe the wash trading directly, if you watch the books you’ll see instantaneous matches in between the best bid/ask. Shame they decided to use this “marketing hack” rather than offer a competitive product.

(Binance wash trading has most likely been seen in their trading volume “win a Porsche” etc giveaways.)

Really, why?

IMHO, there's a pretty compelling argument to be made that Bitcoin and the other cryptocurrencies have had a significantly net-negative impact on the world, from facilitating scams and other illegal activity to now having to worry that sites we visit will monetize by stealing CPU cycles to the significant impact on climate change, these technologies have caused a lot more harm than benefit. And all the while, they haven't even figured out how to build a ledger that can scale to day-to-day transactions. My bet is that the whole thing ends up being a tax on people who've forgotten their 17th century Dutch history.

Wow, you haven't educated yourself at all. You haven't even read the article linked in this conversation. If you had read it, you would have come across the enormous similarities between this program and the social workshops that you describe. Here, since you haven't bothered to read it

> Most people making subminimum wages, like Chris Wilson, work in factorylike settings known as sheltered workshops, which are supervised workplaces for people with disabilities. Workers package and assemble products, for example, sometimes folding paper, making jewelry, or sorting mail.

The subminimum wage is only allowed for people who are unable to work at normal levels of productivity because of their disability - in other words, it doesn't apply to people with a disability who can produce an hour of work that's worth the same as an able-bodied person doing the same job. (Also worth noting that 'able-bodied' is an odd word to use in this context, most of the people in this program would have an intellectual disability, not a physical one.) For your further education, here's an article that contains some examples of how this is measured:

> For example, if an average worker loads 100 boxes in an hour, but the worker being tested loads 15, that worker could be assigned a wage that is 15 percent of the average worker’s, or $2.25 an hour, rather than Seattle’s $15 minimum wage.
...
> With a supervisor, the six workers complete the amount of work that would normally be done by two people.

While it's true that shorter write/run cycles can encourage a throw-spaghetti-at-a-wall approach to programming, the other side is the Bret Victor point of view [1], i.e. that a programming environment that clearly exposes the behavior of the computer and allows the programmer to react to it can help her more easily form a mental model of the program's behavior. People can only keep but so much program state inside their heads, so careful thinking will only take you but so far. I'm optimistic that in the long-term, developing these kinds of interactive programming tools will be a net positive for programmer productivity even in the face of additional bugs that may be introduced.

The key factor that you seem to be ignoring is ratio of the income to cost of living in that area. For the purposes of this I'll define upper middle class as 'can afford a house, a reasonably nice car, and can afford to go to pretty much any restaurant in town for special occasions'. Sure you can argue about details but that may well be true for a successful tradesman, especially one who runs his or her own business.

Are you referring to miners? They are neither undetectable, nor exceptionally powerful. They do have an environmental impact, but the bitcoin community believes the juice is worth the squeeze.
Of course it could. How could anyone who cares to lend individuals or small companies have so much of their own money that they can just do that with their time? They start this thing called a "bank" or "investment group" or "hedge fund" (etc.) and they use other people's money to invest or provide credit and either return an agreed amount over time (interest) or whatever they manage to gain - a fee (ROI - management fees, which is usually % of $ under management or % of profits gained (more rare)).

What you're suggesting is we get rid of credit and investing other people's money or, rather, that we use a system which makes that system impossible.

OK, so it appears that you don't support tools that allow people to get around censorship. That's fine, but that is literally the point of Bitcoin. You just don't like the use case.

At the end of the end, it has been working for 8 years, and it is the best tool out there to solve the problem of censorship resistant financial transactions.

This is proven by the fact that even though people want to shut down payments to places like Wikileaks they are still happening
So the purpose is to subvert people and groups like you, who want to stop these payments, and yet the payments and money still flows.

The nasty things that you claim COULD happen, AREN'T. This is proven by the fact that groups like Wikileaks still recieve their money.

My definition of "working" has nothing to with theoreticals. It has to do with the practical, historical examples. And the historical example is that these groups are still receiving their money, so by definition it did work.

Or in other words, if it really doesn't work, as you claim, the how come it its working? As defined by the fact that it is literally the best existing tool out there for this usecase. (IE, visa and mastercard will block your money, and yet bitcoin still works)

If you disagree, fine, go ahead and try to stop my money going to places that you don't want it to (ex, such as Wikileaks). Report it to the NSA or whoever, for supporting "russian propaganda", or whatever. Betcha won't succeed.
> Or improve the marketing, so people realize the value the software gives for their $5

I'm not sure I agree with this metric. For example, if I buy a shopping bag I could end up saving an hour over its lifetime because now I carry more things and once and make fewer trips. Does that mean that it should cost me $whatever my hourly rate is? No, I'm going to pay how much I feel its intrinsic value is based on factors such as the market rate, the raw materials that went into its manufacturing, and the quality of the craftsmanship. Maybe I end up paying a dollar for it.

Using these guidelines, to me I think the effective price of this software should really be $0. Other comments have mentioned how this is trivial to set up with free software that's already available, and if this doesn't fit people's needs, there are sure to be people like me who could whip up a clone in an hour.

This seems like a fairly superficial argument to me. Facebook is mostly getting scrutiny for specific problems that Google has managed (whether by luck or otherwise) to avoid and which have little connection to the main argument of the article around advertising on YouTube. To me, the equating of these two companies is actually harmful because then we are failing to distinguish why Facebook specifically was such a powerful vector into the 2016 election. Both companies present privacy concerns, but they are definitely not the same in their approach and we should be carefully looking at those differences for their instructive value, not lumping them together.

I like the part where you skipped right over "a short and amusing or interesting story about a real incident or person" so you could quote "an account regarded as unreliable or hearsay".

It's okay to be wrong. I distinctly remember believing the (false) pencil story once, before reading more about it and learning the (far more interesting) actual story. And also realizing that the false pencil story pushes certain goals and agendas, too, so probably isn't accidental.
This isn't true at all. A company can pursue any not-profit related goal it likes.

The lack of trust stemmed from complex derivative contracts which allowed people to create bets on thing they did not own with massive upsides. The cascade was in the contracts creating disproportionate problems in the books of banks + the fact that the CDOs themselves were falling apart in value.

Something like this could have easily* been created via ETH and automatically cascaded without and brakes and caused a chaotic meltdown that would be TRUELY destroyed the trust, not in ETH, but in the other people which we could lend money to and stop the growth of the economy which credit is built on.

* in a world where we used ETH to make these contracts normally as we do today using English and our existing Property/Tax/etc. laws.

The two are highly related, but one is not directly responsible for the other.

The root of of what keeps the "pull" system entrenched is the regime where whomever originates a fraudulent transaction into the network is responsible for dealing with the mess.

This explains why banks have explicit daily transfer limits for their bank to bank transfer feature (and online bill pay) outgoing and incoming, but will let arbitrarily high debit transactions post to your account from elsewhere. You click dispute, your bank sends back an ACH reject, and then the originating bank needs to figure out wtf happened.

This also explains why local banks ACH initiation limits are obscenely low - same risk profile as online-only banks, but they'd rather not have to clean up messes (whereas the online banks are basically forced to be in that business).

This creates a stable system of course, whereby it's in no individual bank's interest to start encouraging push transfers - they'd just have to potentially deal with even more fallout for no gain.

> Trust being one of the pillar of our civilization

Very true. But I would argue that blockchain is a technology that obviates the need for trust between humans (by delegating it to a technology), and therefore erodes civilization.
I thought about this idea at a deeper level long time ago and don't remember all the details (and don't have the notes in front of me) but here are two points related to that:

- Programmable debugger would be a massive benefit to compiled langauges like C, and not as much of a benefit for interpretive systems like Python. Especially with the REPL mode of programming in Python (you run something, don't like the results, try something else, then move to next step) is already a pretty effective way to do exploratory prototyping. A programmable gdb would allow REPL like workflow for C.

- As an example, let's say a C program seg-faults at a certain point in code. If you run your C program inside gdb, gdb will stop there and let you do some exploration. That exploration is very tedious if you can't programmatically manipulate your registers and memory areas. In principle, you should be able to write an arbitrarily complex program to bring the seg-faulted state back into a functioning state, and then when the code continues, you don't get the seg-fault again, and you didn't even have to rerun the code.

One use case in which this is massively useful is long running scientific programs. You start a complex scientific simulation based on a C program and it is expected to run for, let's say, 48 hours, but it seg-faults in the 46th hour! If you run it in a programmable gdb you could fix the seg-fault right then and there, and continue the program instead of trial and error of multiple runs, each run taking 46 hours before you know if your fix worked or not.

I think this scenario might require more than just a programmable gdb, e.g., it might require a way for the program to be recompiled and put in memory replacing the older buggy program, before the program has actually finished. But a programmable gdb would be a big part of that system.

I'm not sure I agree with your assessment that sending an incorrect Content-Length is permitted. This specific post quotes a section in RFC-2616 that deals with this directly[1]:

When a Content-Length is given in a message where a message-body is allowed, its field value MUST exactly
match the number of OCTETs in the message-body.

According to this, the Content-Length MUST match the data. Can you share an example of the opposite being stated?
