Who the hell told you that Marxists think trade is never mutually beneficial? Marxists make a distinction between use-value and monetary value, so it's definitely possible for a trade to be mutually beneficial. The issue is within capital-labor transactions that are fundamentally different in the Marxist framework from trade of goods.

There is no view that when anyone makes money someone is exploited. The view is that whenever you make money purely from investment, someone somewhere is being exploited to pay for part of it. The vast majority of people make money from selling their labour, so clearly that wouldn't be exploitative in any way in such a framework.

It would help your critique a lot if you weren't simply factually wrong on most of your points, especially if you want to call him overrated.
Lol, come-on, do you really believe this? The first victim of what people call "modern cancel culture" were the Dixie Chicks (now The Chicks) when they made an incredibly mild criticism of president Bush a few days before the invasion of Iraq during a concert in The UK. It costed them their position as one of the top country acts in the country.

1. Fees on chains made for transactions are pennies (Google "X transaction fees" where x = solana, polygon, bitcoin lightning, etc.)

2. I'd expect a project trying to create digital money to take a bit more time then a JS framework[1]. Does that seem reasonable? It took React 6 years to "go mainstream" and had the backing of Facebook. It's hard to do consequential things in the real world, it will take time.

3. Why do you think it won't happen? Just because it's taking a long time? It's a big change with a ton at risk if it goes wrong. It's going to take a while to happen.

Isn’t a lot of content like YouTube served from edge devices at your ISP, which is what you’re connected to at 25?
Even where the ports are available, 25 Gbit from a single address is well into the realms of looking like attack traffic in a wide variety of scenarios.

Past even 500 Mbit I'm way more interested in latency considerations than raw bandwidth, and practical matters like how to use that bandwidth from my laptop (good luck doing 500 mbit wireless reliably, never mind 25 Gbit!)
25 Gb/s to the internet providers speedtest server is kinda cute.
But most CDN's limit is much, much lower.
Oof, if a $900,000 invoice doesn't trigger review from their accounting dept, kind of their fault for not having a process of the common sense to question that bill.
> most web designers have no design background

Most people with a design background aren’t particularly good at design, right? And even good designers have styles that go out of fashion and become irrelevant. The requirements for most websites don’t depend on good original design. To your point, web design is mostly curated trends, and not original design at all.

This means two things: 1) most web companies don’t actually need people with design backgrounds, and 2) AI based design could plausibly occupy a place of permanent utility from now on, if what people really need is remixes of recent ideas -- which is what human designers have already been doing, by and large.

I think you’re absolutely right, high end will work to demonstrate non-automation and new concepts. That’s already been the case in the art and design world, some people already work to eschew generative styles as well as easily reproduced art. Photography has never had the cachet of oil painting or sculpture. Illustration is further down the list, and all types of “computer generated” art further still, regardless of how good they are or how much work they take. Unfortunately, doing wholly original design work is expensive, and it means that the people who can imitate good design for the masses cheaply and quickly enough to keep up with trends will have a business advantage over firms bending over backwards to prove they’re human (and most consumers will remain oblivious).
My friend took a year, over 150 calls and legal intervention to get money back that HSBC stole. Obviously not the same but to say that banks are faultless just isn't true; their systems also have edge cases from which there is often little hope of return.
What's different about angular momentum in that case? Given that rotating or not rotating is also similar to moving or standing still

That depends on the hobby you're monetizing, I think. For instance, one of my hobbies is watchmaking (cleaning, servicing, restoring). I don't do it for money, but those who do don't really adhere to deadlines. It's all very open ended, even for the large companies like Seiko and Rolex. They don't guarantee a timeframe, and you won't know how long they'll have it until they tell you they're sending it back.

I think this is partly because these are generally considered luxury items rather than necessities, but also partly because many regard the inner workings of a mechanical watch to be magic.

Selection bias. The sort of people interested in BTC tend to be the ones who already don't trust government.

I don't expect governments to cater to the mistrustful, so I don't anticipate governments adopting BTC as their core currency in my lifetime.

Right but usually people argue banks prevent this sort of thing and that's one of the main downsides to crypto. It turns out banks don't.

My experience with fast internet has been that most CDNs are just not routed well and are quite slow (especially Microsoft). Only a few good ones allow me to saturate my Gbit internet. Not sure what I would do with 25 Gbit though.

What I do enjoy is that rsync.net is using the same ISP so I can max out my upload to them.
The article doesn't mention the ideological trend Netflix has been having in it's programming. Many people are tiring of having views forced on them and on their favored franchises. This isn't even mentioning the cuties scandal.

When a company goes to war against a section of it's customer base it should be no surprise when they lose them.

Now Netflix is not alone in this endeavor. Amazon has done the same thing with the Wheel Of Time, Disney has done the same thing with Star Wars, Etc.

Am I blowing this out of portion or have you seen the same thing?
I hate asymmetric connections. You get gigabit download but something stupid like 20-100 Mbps upload? Just why... Upload speed matters just as much as download these days.

> Anyone across the country between the ages of 13 and 21 to get a free eCard from BPL, which will give them access to 350,000 ebooks and 200,000 audiobooks, as well as access to databases.

Making hundreds of thousands of ebooks/audiobooks available around the country is an incredible use of library resources IMO. This feels like a serious development in library missions and I hope they don't stop at teens. Everyone around the country should have free access to these ebooks/audiobooks.

I think the theory with having that much money is that either you have the knowledge or you can afford to hire someone who has it.

It's true that the Series 65 is more than one would need for solo investing. But the alternative was for them to come up with some sort of new test for the very small number of people who want to get into opaque, illiquid, high-risk investments. This seems like a pretty reasonable compromise.
Straight from Das Kapital:

In the US (I'd assume Europe has a similar thing with different specifics), most fire extinguishers are certified for some or all of three categories of fire: normal, flammable liquid (think grease fire), or electrical. Most extinguishers actually work fine on electrical fires, but it is important to check as a few contain a conductive suppressant (like water) that can cause an electrocution.
I didn’t say banks were faultless. I didn’t say that any aspect of a fiat currency based system is perfect. I just said that redress works often enough that people don’t give up on it.
Holy shit how do I move to your place?
Bar to entry is extremely low; copy-paste existing contract, change a few variables and launch. Yet, the contract must resist state-sponsored attacks, eg. https://rekt.news/big-phish/

Maybe one day there will be a sort of unhackable template that everything derives from, or an automatic software-prover.
I think that the point is not that non-crypto systems are perfect, but at least they do not have flaws which could make the reversal of a transaction a mathematical impossibility. In non-crypto systems if you convince the right humans, things can be reversed.

> Remote is hard, creates more work for management, is detrimental to juniors and new hires, and doesn't work for everyone.

I agree. I really enjoy working hybrid myself - going to the office every now and then to have some human contact, otherwise working from home or wherever I am.

It also depends a lot in the living situation: A 20-something single who lives in the center anyways might enjoy going to the office, a married 40-something in the suburb would rather work from home all the time.
I’m pretty sure it will continue to be more profitable to just cater to the lowest(-ish) common denominator.
I have wondered that, though without knowing enough to even figure out if it is a reasonable question. One follow-on thought I had was this: what about the matter that becomes the black hole when it forms? When a star collapses into a black hole, where does the event horizon first appear?

I'm really unsure as to whether it's worth investing whatsoever in consumer grade fiber connections.

My speeds are advertised as 1Gbits down and 100Mbits up. On speed tests, I get much higher downloads (~1.5Gbits per second). This might be because it's not capped properly, and I live in a place that they're still building houses in (I imagine that our "box" is not yet saturated).

However, I rarely max that speed out in any download. Video games on Steam max out at maybe 65 megabytes per second. wget commands go from between 10 megabytes per second to maybe 40 max.

The thing is, I know that the speed tests are legit, because I can do several of these things at once and none of them lose any speed.
> The loss of the funds will not affect students, classes or operations, states the release.

Are organizations liable when they make statements like this? Suppose operations actually are affected and the college intentionally misrepresented the consequences of the fraud—are there grounds for legal recourse by students and future students?
That's fine. No one said you need to use it all up in one connection.
Many servers specifically throttle single connections, which is why there's stuff like JDownloader and browser add-ons that download the same file in several parts over multiple connections
I’m a tech-minded American that pays $65 per month for a 1 Gbps up and down line that I am completely satisfied with.

Until recently I paid $35 per month for a 300 Mbps line because I couldn’t justify the jump to 1 Gbps.

Then I had to upload some local Hyper-V servers to AWS to convert them to AMIs and figured what the heck I’d upgrade the line.

I would have no interest in upgrading beyond 1 Gbps right now though. There are too many infrastructure components that need to be upgraded to attain that and I don’t have a use case for it.
I regularly exchange currencies using Wise or Revolut for a lot less than that.

The (important) difference is that a rotating frame of reference is not inertial.
A bunch of ways? Maybe it's just confusing because you haven't thought about it before.

There's certainly a tiny trade-off about where to put the core type name. If you have a "let" keyword, your declaration is just a little more verbose:

int foo[10];
let foo: [10] int;

If you don't have type inferencing, you always need to specify the type, and the let keyword and colon are just more noise. I know it's a matter of taste, but I think the first line is cleaner.

But my point isn't about where to put the core type (int). It's that pointer dereferencing is the same kind of operation as array subscripting, accessing fields, and calling functions. So unless you put it in order with the rest, you need ugly parens in any general case:

// prefix pointer syntax is convoluted and needs parens:
(*(x.foo.bar))("arguments")[10];

// grab field foo, then field bar, then derefence pointer,
// then call function, then subscript array
x.foo.bar@("arguments")[10]
I've done 600 megabit down from an iPhone here in Australia on 5G, and the latency to Sydney was about 20ms.

I'd still rather have gigabit fibre.

The fastest I ever saw on 4G was 300 megabit down but the latency could be 40-80ms.
The article lists everything the law does. It doesn’t list everything they wanted and didn’t get because, as Journalists, they arent suppose to want anything and therefore cannot list their disappointments.

Yes, the article is a bit sterile. Maybe politico.eu will have a better writeup for people interested in the politics more than the law. But to not see that the guy you’re agreeing with is drowning in opinion is almost comically lacking in self-reflection.

FWIW, on the merits, this is 100 % good for the consumer/citizen. There is nothing in it for companies, except that it maybe could have ended worse. It isn’t a compromise where each side got a bit of what they wanted. It started out with ideas of completely fucking over tech companies, now it graciously settled on just mildly tying them down and setting a bit of their clothes on fire.

But I’m sure that will be entirely lost on the „yet-again-these-corrupt-sellout-manufactured-consent-soros-etc-etc-crowd“

We may well see this scenario play out in our lives.

Countries with free speech and no capital controls, ie the west, bitcoinize.

Countries with controlled internet and capital controls, ie china, act like fiatland.

Who wins the war. It's not an easy question. It's not an obvious answer.

But it's true. You can't have both.

*****

One reason to hope for the west over fiatland in a conflict is, defense contractors and soldiers and police would rather get paid in a hard currency.

So at some point fiatland may just collapse.

That doesn't mean no more wars.

Bitcoin country 1 can tax and borrow, and wage war against Bitcoin country 2, who can do the same.

I never subscribed to bitcoin equals forever peace. Bitcoin doesn't cure cancer either, or wash your car.

But the extent of the taxing and borrowing is at least constrained.
Or we can require companies to do compliance testing under external supervision if they want to sell these products to people.

Labour markets != Capitalism. I suspect Varoufakis would be more amenable to labour markets regulated so that labour without ownership is not legal, which would not be capitalism.

There is no reason for the government to decide for you what your job is. Even the USSR since the 60s didn't have such a system. You would have to work for a set amount of years for a set job if you wanted to get an advanced education. After that, you were able to go look for available jobs and choose which one you wanted. Which is just a price-controlled labour market.

I doubt very much that the market socialist Varoufakis would want a more restrictive labour market than that of the USSR, so your accusation really seems to be a strawman.
Agreed with the author of this news, the content killed netflix. In the last two years of pandemic and WFH, more people paid attention to the online streaming and willing to spend more. It didn't take long before you'd learn who's content hold the better quality. Netflix has been relying on foreign contents approximately 70% if not 50% in the recent years.
I wouldn't say netflix is completely out of favor at this point but definitely lost its edge comparing to others. It has occurred to me I could go on by weeks on HBOmax, Hulu and Amazon without missing Netflix, among which two are bundled with wireless plan and Prime membership, Hulu is cheaper with commercial. If it comes to paying full price I'd probably cut Netflix without a blink.
I said this on a past XMPP thread. It is a dead protocol due to mobile. I loved XMPP but without a push system it is useless on modern mobile operating systems.
Well, non-repudiation is not the same thing as non-reversibility. The former is part of a Smart Contract. Unfortunately, most (all?) cryptocurrencies make you take the latter too.

I feel Yanis is speaking to a previous era which is now ending.

He says money-printing and QE will continue? He says Tech will rule everything?

That was believable a year ago.

But today, we have for the first time seen enough inflation from all that QE for it to now be a mainstream political issue (and not just something ranted about on RT). We have central banks raising rates for the first time in decades. We have Tech stocks now doing far worse than they were just a year ago.

And -- Yanis does touch on this -- we have also seen China systematically destroy its Tech industry in favor of more materially-productive enterprises.

So -- maybe it's just a short-term hiccup, but -- my feeling is that the winds are now blowing differently. More towards fiscal policy and away from monetary (i.e., government spending), more towards industrial policy, and more towards old 20th century type enterprises.

I could be wrong though.
I cam to the same conclusion in 2016, and I am not aware of any useful applications that have been developed since.
