As long as BTC transfers between custodians are possible, that should be quite small problem. There might be winner in terms of liquidity and volume, but because anyone can quite easily fire up custodian service, there should be also plenty of competition.

It's the same old problem of identity beliefs: An "attack" on any part of the belief is an attack upon the person, and elicits an "I must defeat my opponent by any means necessary (fair or unfair)" response. Discussions will take hard turns into logical fallacies and the person making them will be convinced that they're acting perfectly normal, because the lower brain has cut off the rational section as part of the "fight-or-flight" response. It's fascinating to watch the Jekyll-Hyde transformation in real time, but not fun trying to disengage.

We take on identity beliefs in so many areas of our lives (most commonly in religion and politics), and programming languages or text editor preferences are particularly notable areas of identity belief when it comes to programmers.

I've long given up participating in language or editor criticism because it's simply impossible to have a rational discussion about it. We used to have similar problems with RISC vs CISC discussions, but I think that has largely faded into history by now.
It certainly matters if you don't want to live in fear for the rest of your life. Because if you think for a minute that the level of violence that would ensue would not be monumental you're kidding yourself.

Roughly speaking it's the price someone is willing to pay for one share. That doesn't say much about how much money Elon would receive if he liquidated his entire portfolio tomorrow. You can't just put 100+ BILLION dollars worth of anything on the market and expect there to be a buyer for all of it at yesterday's price. And furthermore, what is Tesla going to be worth when its chairman and CEO is seen to be dumping their shares?

I doubt Elon could even realise one quarter of his "net worth" if he needed it converted to US Dollars next week.

> What exactly is the assumption that deems BTC's intrinsic value zero and land's value more than zero?

For me the easiest way to determine if something has intrinsic value is ask yourself what would happen if you owned all of it (and couldn't be forced to give it up).

If you owned all the Bitcoin in the world, we wouldn't accept its use, and would just create another currency with identical properties.

If you owned all the land in the world, people would come to you to buy or rent it. You can't build a house or a factory unless someone is willing to sell or lease you the land. That's what makes it valuable.

In many ways, this is why we have the word "priceless". Things become priceless when, in certain contexts (for certain people at certain times), they will not be sold for any price. Land can be priceless because I can have a sentimental attachment to a particular place. Its value isn't derived from how many $'s people will pay for it.
This is a really interesting camera. A Phantom high-speed camera is going to set you back between $30k and $100k and aren’t always affordable depending in academia. They’re great cameras, very robust and I’ve had good experience with the company.

For five grand however you get a lot of potential to get good research done in a budget, heck you could even buy a few of them and mount them on something moving since they are battery powered.

I bought the similar FPS1000 camera a few years ago and it had a lot of issues. It was really buggy and poorly built. The Kronos looks a lot better.
I personally think the distinction is agency, that is, the ability to act in some way, however small. A rock in space has it's orbit, this cannot change. The sun is a very very complex system, but it is all deterministic (unless there's some profound thing going on in it we have yet to comprehend). But a plant bends itself to face the sunlight. You can show all sorts of chemical and biological explanations for the behavior, but it is still "behavior." It can be predictable, but it is not deterministic.

I am personally of the opinion that consciousness is something fundamental, not some emergent result of complexity or some evolved trait that exists only because it is a fitness benefit, and that all living creatures have it to some degree. What exactly it is or why or how it exists is beyond me, and I'd love to know, but I think it is plainly obvious on it's face that it exists, is not an illusion, and that something very strange is going on here.
So we have basically invented... banks, but with bitcoins?
oh this happens regularly inside EU. And even cooperating with US. A few years ago, someone from town I live was involved in making/selling one of those exploit toolkits on dark web. FBI contacted our police, he got arrested, and convicted. He didn't get extradited to US, but is in prison here.

It's not that uncommon.
Reminds me of a Michael Moore movie where he goes to Canada, and checks in a neighbourhood whether people lock their main door or not. He litteraly enters a house, and asks directly to the inhabitants: "Why don't you lock your door?". And the canadians answer: "Why should I?"
First of all, you have to sit down with a piece of paper and a pencil next to the book and ban every electronic device in the vicinity. Then focus and do the exercises.

This is the dumbest thing I've ever read. So you designed a system that sacrifices everything to achieve trustlessness, and then you immediately reintroduce a centralised trusted entity. You can't make this shit up. I'm so glad I left the crypto community in 2014, it's become completely deranged.
A bank by any other name is still a bank. Sure there is definitely a legal difference such as deposit insurance and access to their lender of last resort. For the customer however it doesn't matter they still need KYC, the cops can still see their transactions, they still have to ask where the money is from, they can still knock on your door and put your hands in handcuffs. Many of the advantages to people in El Salvador with BTC is avoiding extreme inflation in the national currency. However one does well to note that inflation woes in the Atlantic world actually correlated with a partial deflation of the Bitcoin bubble, so if you're in the EU/US bitcoin is an investment when money is cheap, not a hedge for your money becoming cheap.
I think you’re mixing up “fiat currency” with “legal tender”. The former being “money created and backed by the power of a government” and the latter being “money which a government says courts are required to recognise when offered as payment for a debt”.

If we were on the gold standard, gold would be legal tender, even though it isn’t fiat.
> There are far less costly ways for the environment to achieve the same results.

I'd love to know what your top alternative is
In case it doesn't fix it for anyone else, here's what worked for me.

First, I ran:

pip3 install virtualenv
cd ~
python3 -m virtualenv tfenv -p python3 --system-site-packages

Now you can activate your tensorflow env at any time by running this:

source ~/tfenv/bin/activate

I alias this to `tf2` in my ~/.zprofile file:

alias tf2='source ~/tfenv/bin/activate'

Open up a new terminal and run `tf2`. Now you're in a clean virtualenv, with none of the conda BS. The nice thing about this venv is that if you already have some libraries installed, you can just `import` them. No need to reinstall them for every venv, which I quite like.

So, the goal is to install tensorflow-macos and tensorflow-metal, but the problem is that their pip3 command is failing with some obscure numpy error.

Here's the command that works:

pip3 install --no-dependencies tensorflow-macos tensorflow-metal absl-py wrapt opt-einsum gast astunparse termcolor flatbuffers

The way I arrived at that command was to run `pip3 install --no-dependencies tensorflow-macos tensorflow-metal`, open a python repl, and try 'import tensorflow as tf'. If it threw an error about package_foo, I added `package-foo` to the end of the command.

That method worked for tracking down every library except absl (unknown library name). But googling pip3 install absl showed that it was named absl-py, not absl.

Now I can run python3, then this code:

import tensorflow as tf2; tf = tf2.compat.v1; sess = tf.InteractiveSession(); sess.list_devices()

and it shows I have both a CPU and GPU device! I'm really hyped about that. I've wanted tensorflow GPU on my laptop for... about two years? more?

Note that it spits out a warning like this:

WARNING:root:Limited tf.compat.v2.summary API due to missing TensorBoard installation.

I'm going to leave it as-is, until problems pop up for me. But if you want to try to address it, try adding tensorboard to that pip3 install command above, and repeat the process I described to install any other dependencies.

I think that's the crux of the disagreement, I explicitly don't want hackers, I want professional software developers to execute a very reasonable software project effectively, which is not everyone's cup of tea.

There's plenty of room for hackers in the industry, to go make really cool stuff and make endless cash, and I love the architecture part more than the rest of it so for personal projects that's what I'm all about. But if I want to achieve delivery on time and in an expected format, I want zero hackers, I want career engineers. That is definitely a boring take for some, but that's just part of a maturing industry. Not every project needs to be an R&D project at the same time.

Gold is not superior to copper for everything - incl. the most important one feature: conductivity. Gold (22.14 nΩ⋅m) is, of course, a lot less chemically active which makes it ideal for terminals, contacts, etc. (and mostly as plating agent), however as a sole conductor it's worse than copper (16.78 nΩ⋅m). Gold has worse thermal conductivity as well... and it's a lot heavier.

That being said, it's still a very valuable material for electronics.

-In all fairness, though, the latter approach isn't unique to the US; Norwegian papers have run a lot of stories lately about business X or Y being up in arms about the labour shortage, amplified by COVID because of travel restrictions limiting access to cheap labour from abroad.

However the issue isn't really that they cannot find labour - it is that they cannot find labour at a cost which makes their current business model sustainable. (Mostly an issue in labour intensive, seasonal sectors relying on unskilled labour - agriculture, aquaculture, restaurants...)

Essentially, the gripe is 'If we paid our employees a decent wage, we'd be out of business.'

Sigh.

Few points:

- Yes, I don't know exhaustively, but a number of countries with wealth taxes do not have gains taxes.

- Your comparison is a little bit mistaken, I think; you're looking at the tax only on the gain, whereas (obviously) the tax would be on the entire principle. I'm too lazy to do the math, but a wealth tax is easy to factor in, since it's a fixed reduction in total yield on wealth. The long-term historical return on capital in the west is about 4%/year; a 1% wealth tax is thus averaging about 25% of that. Gains taxes are typically lower than that amount. (Note that in the US the long-term gains tax is 20% at the upper bracket.)

I can do that with gold.

Gold is less volatile, and the value of the volume of a €2 coin in gold is 9 months of El Salvador nominal GDP per capita.
