To be clear, I think anarchy would be much worse and that governments are necessary. Evidence from the genetic record shows epochs where almost all men died due to violence, and anthropological evidence shows societies can have extremely high murder rates, approaching 50 percent, without a government in place to interrupt blood feuds.

One thing I'll say about modern gangs, however, is that they're in large part caused by governments. The high murder rate in South America is downstream from puritanical government drug restrictions in North America. Gangs will still exist even without perverted incentives provided by government, it's true, but governments are part of the picture here.

Your point about the slave trade is a good one and it just shows that corporations - and people in general - do need at least a minimalist government to protect individual rights.

You can definitely deduct income with those claims, but the crypto one is a lot easier to lie about and nigh impossible to catch.
I appreciate the clarification.

I don't however agree with you that that's the logical extension of what I stated. Can you explain? I don't feel it particularly relevant to take an idea and carry it to an extreme to judge it's usefulness either.

Perhaps you might instead address what I said initially on it's own terms.

Intel definitely has the talent and they’re in USA.

As a relative outsider to crypto, mostly jumping in with the oh-I-should-have-invested-in-2010-when-my-boss-told-me-about-it, I wonder if some structural elements are causing the price instability, or rather, making them be less like currencies and more like gold.

Perhaps ETH is different in this, as I don't know it well. I know BTC is deflationary by default, and so it seems to be ripe for prospecting/grifting: "buy it today, it'll be worth more in the future! HODL!" If I have a currency that I think will almost certainly be worth more the next day, why would I spend it? Who wants to be the $80M pizza guy?

From what I can tell about ETH, it doesn't seem to be as predictably deflationary, and yet maybe it is, because, if someone is trying to make money off of holding a digital asset, doesn't it have to be deflationary? If the asset inflates, then people lose money and would have an incentive to spend it.

The other option seems to be stable coins, which somehow make me laugh, because many people in the space seem to be so against fiat currency and the US Fed, etc., and then create a currency tied directly to it and those policies.

Maybe I'm naive on this or just brainwashed by what I hear from the US Fed, it just seems that for a currency to work well, it has to almost be slightly inflationary, plus or minus a bit, so that people have an incentive to spend it more than save it.

Anyways, I'm glad you're working in this space and grateful for the way you shared with us :-)
The good news is that intellectual "property" isn't truly rivalrous. If ARM china "steals" ARM ip, ARM is still capable of licensing to it's western clients; as it's unlikely any of them will be licensing from ARM china.
Using the same symbol for two arbitrary, unrelated things is confusing for the reader - especially if you're using a symbol and a term that already have a standard mathematical meaning. str + str for concatenation might seem unrelated to num + num, but it's a valid "+" in the standard mathematical sense of being a valid monoid operation (i.e. it's associative). And this means you can write code that uses that + operator in a generic way and be able to rely on it making sense - e.g. if you write a "sum of a list" function, and then refactor it to sum the lists in parallel, if your refactoring was correct for lists of numbers it will be correct for lists of strings as well.

(If your language doesn't allow polymorphism, you might have to write the same code twice but you'd be able to use the same symbol, which helps a reader understand how it's conceptually the same thing)

"==" for two different types won't do exactly the same thing, but it should always be a well-behaved "equals" operation that satisfies the usual expectations that a reader would have. That usually includes that any value is equal to itself.

I found the article odd. The stats of how many people work for companies greater than 250 can be accounted for without claiming companies get weaker as they bigger. Why do almost half of the population work for small companies then? Because that is how companies start. You don't create a new company with over 250 employees overnight. So your looking at a flow: companies start small and then grow, either by hiring more people or by getting swallowed up by a larger company. So if it's a flow then we should see huge megacorps periodically die? Well, a lot of company deaths are at the small end, where there is churn. Plus the system as a whole is growing - there is more money and "stuff" coming into existence every day. IBM still exists. The reason we don't have a ministry of food is not because such a ministry would be unstable as an organization (which seems to be the connection...). In fact such a ministry might be scarily stable, and produce food at a very low cost (efficiently). The reason we dont want a ministry of food is not related to efficiency or cost. Seems like the author just wanted to take a stab at the government. What's the takeaway here? We should have the water distribution system managed by thousands of tiny botique companies? City states with their own laws?

Sorry dude but you don't really know true Math. In Math all is precise, all abstraction is precise, there is no place for interpretation.

When you read a physics book you will see stuff like

F = m * a

this are defined somewhere , you can't just jump at the middle of the book and understand. Is the same with terms, you get teh concepts explained at the beginning where for example it will tell you that mass != weight and what it really represents , a physics paper does not need to get verbose because some random person wants to understand it but at the same time wants to skip the requierments.

Sure, there could be somewhere some bad book/article/paper that is confusing maybe for everyone but that is an exception>

I am still waiting for some proof or example on how this no symbols Math should like? Do we repat the terms definiont all the time , do I need to explain all the time what a natural and real number is ?,what a set and function is ? do I need to explain what PI and e is every-time I use it ? If not do I ask you what you level is and everything you personally don't understand is the thing that I must defined even if I don't target you?

But if you are a dev you should start cleaning up the software side too, like let's stop naming stuff functions what they are not functions, let's stop naming shit int if they are not the real Integers, let's stop using +, * and / because this are not the real thing(they do not respect all the laws in all conditions)
Also with mass / telecommunications.

If all you need is to be intelligible to the (same, small group of) people you see every day, then a local, short-lived argot will suffice.

If you're talking to people in the next village, town, state, country, continent, and/or planet over, regularly, you're going to need a more stable form of spoken comms, and coordinated evolution is more challenging.

Much as small island populations tend to evolve and diverge more rapidly than large continental ones.

I've been playing it on and off lately (on a real n64 no less) and I honestly think it's more of a level design problem than the actual collect a ton.

I've really enjoyed some levels (the factory level is nice!), while I despised others, such as the water one with a sunken ship. I specially hate when levels over rely on kong changes just to unlock things. They make you do four or five round trips just to hit all switches and pads related to each kong. This just seems lazy...

The factory level is nice because it has plenty of platforming (which in my opinion could use some more!) and they require each Kong platforming abilities to reach different places. That's the king of thing they should have focused more trough out the game. Miyamoto even said that climbing mountains is the thing that inspired SM64 levels, so I wished they had took that to hart in DK64.
There are two kinds of throttling going on. CPU and VRM.

CPU is normal - prevents CPU temps going above 100C.

The issue is VRMs which have no cooling. And no public sensors.

The fix is to add thermal pads to your VRM chips to dissipate the heat to back plate. Entirely solves all throttling issues. Cleaning fans should help too.
What about bacteria and bugs?
The VRM thermal pad mod will fix all your issues.

> These patterns, if true, are seem important regarding the ideal scales of both business and government. And I fear the U.S. public is insufficiently aware of them, as we seem to be on the verge of a historic increase in the scale and depth of government management of society.

Maybe what hit me harder was the last line and the presumption that 1) it is a historic increase in the scale and depth of government management of society and 2) that we are also not seeing a large amount of corporate centralization. Maybe I perceive more corporate centralization than government centralization, as platforms have hundreds of millions or billions of users across 100+ countries, and I recall my 2005 political science class talking about the rising influence of multinational companies over nation-state governments.
That's the gross vehicle weight rating, which is the max weight of the vehicle including cargo. The R1T has a curb weight of ~7,000lbs[0] with the 135kWh battery. That is still as much as a Dually F-350. The 180kWh option would be heavier still and start eating into the payload capacity.

Why? It’d be pretty simple to make a clone of, honestly, just SDL2 with some Lua bindings and some neat tools. The special part about it isn’t the code. It’s the concept of it, the execution, and the community that has grown up around it.

Struggling as a layman trying to learn advanced stuff
For some reason my priors for Robin Hansen have been to anticipate intelligent, nuanced, insightful argument. And in practice every piece is the worst academic abstract banality that is also so plainly blind to what is going on in reality.
yes, it did a poor job of plainly spelling out the rationale, but not of putting gov and corp on equal footing here.

(tech) giants might be successful, but the point is that they’re not as successful as they could be if they were loosely federated, more focused, independent companies. firms consolidate beyond the point of maximal economic benefit because of other reasons (at root, for power & status). the (lost) point being that this is suboptimal from a strictly economic perspective (same for overgrown governments).

The US dollar is inflating at 40% year/year as measured by M2 money supply and there seems to be no end in sight. The US government is considering minting a $1 Trillion dollar coin to keep this debt-spiral going a little longer.

The idea of using the US dollar as the world’s reserve currency is an insane 50 year old experiment that won’t end well.

[Edit ooops, wrong OS] Are you suggesting a Singularity Subsystem for Windows?

Microsoft could fairly easily support most of the existing Windows applications on top of almost any other OS, if they want to support capability based security, its mostly a matter of denying all file system access by default, and restricting it to only resources set up at install time, or via a PowerBox from the user.

Desktop GUI programs just have to switch from calling a dialog, then using the result of that dialog to then open a file, and instead just take the handle from the PowerBox.

A relatively low cost but personally impactful gift is giving custom artwork. There are a lot of artists on Etsy and Reddit who make a living off of doing commissioned work.

I really like that point about how government drug policies in North America lead to gang formation in South America. It seems that government creates and resolves conflict, and sometimes get blamed for doing too much of the former and not enough of the latter.

I guess the more that I've thought about running for office, and more so, actually governing, the more that I've started to see how government can get blamed for so many things, direct and indirect. For example, some company moving overseas and laying off its employees, and people blaming the government because it didn't prohibit the company from making that move and protecting people from that company, more so than being angry at the company. Almost like being more angry at the parent who doesn't protect us from our sibling than the sibling who is hitting us.

Anyways, I appreciate our back and forth, thank you for helping me see things a bit differently.
What happens when we die
I remember being 10 and writing in to complain about the term "hell" from the DK Rap. Pretty sure I got a response apologizing for the language, and indeed "Hell" was replaced with "Heck" in later renditions (e.g. in Super Smash Bros Melee).

The author asks:

> So why don’t firms merge to get larger?

But they do. Most industries/sectors trend toward consolidation. Specific examples that come to mind are radio, agriculture, banking, and tech. I did a quick search and found [0], which describes a general tendency toward consolidation as industries mature.

One major reason for consolidation (ignored by the author) is economies of scale: as volume increases, the cost per unit decreases.

On the other side, the author ignores benefits of central control for some things. For example, private railroad companies used to have different gauges for their railroads in order to protect their routes, but that led to unnecessary inefficiencies.

Also, governments have a different mandate than the private sector. Governments are charged with pursuing citizens' values (freedom, equality, security, etc.), but for private sector companies, their goals boil down down maximizing profit.
