Wow, that's crazy, none of what you said came true Almost as if assuming you know more about someone's identity than they do doesn't make you some critical-thinking free speech mar…

Nobody has any reason to believe anything Kavanaugh says, the man has a known history of lying.

But you just outlined use cases for crypto (illicit activity, etc) in your grandparent post while simultaneously claiming crypto can't be used as a currency. Which is it?

This seems like whataboutism to me. It's possible to enforce the law against more than one type of crime, actually.

>Shoplifting is the act of stealing from a retailer, not an individual No. You can shoplift from a small business or a family owned convenience store, which is essentially stealing…

>but some people shoplift and society is falling apart? So you are okay with people stealing from you, as long as they're poor? >Let the market fix their broken supply chains There…

Because the idea that property laws shouldn't be enforced and that the response to property crime is to give the thieves more stuff (housing and UBI) is a perverse incentive and a …

Violence indeed would solve the problem of rail theft though. Don't want to get shot? Don't try to steal from a train.

Many people are taking issue with him quote-unquote "stealing" other people's content when he's ostensibly just resharing single images that fit in a broader theme of being vaguely…

Really have to love how the HN hivemind can simultaneously defend wholesale intellectual property theft (genlib, piratebay, et al) and claim that copyright law is too strict while …

>Individual filings won't be on sec.gov For an application to a court seeking that someone be held in contempt of court? Yes, this absolutely would be on sec.gov as a 'litigation r…

Elon Musk knows as much about it as we do. It's not like he can call up the SEC and ask them to confirm/deny if they're taking action on him. Sorry, but this story originally came …

You're acting as if market manipulation is some far-out conspiracy theory rather than something relatively common. I don't think it takes a "kabal of evil geniuses" to dupe a few c…

>Short sellers can't make Musk bash the SEC or call people pedos; that's on him. But they certainly can engineer a fake rumor of an SEC requesting contempt of court by manipulating…

>Why do you think some folk are drawn to habitually view such content? Curiosity, memento mori maybe.

What about people who work in slaughterhouses? Or a coroner or a mortician? Are they inherently "unhealthy" people because they have the personal temperament to handle a job that i…

100% agreed. >(If it decreases between 1B and 10B views on such content, and if we assume one person falling for it each 100,000 views, it will prevent 10,000 to 100,000 "falls") 1…

If markets were efficient we wouldn't see such enormous and consistent outsized returns from value investors of the Graham-Buffett school, as mentioned in another HN thread today: …

"A random walk down Wall Street" is quite the contradiction of a book, though. It simultaneously claims that markets are so efficient that a lay-person cannot profit from them whil…

Thing is that any society that hesitates on adopting genetic engineering out of some fear of exacerbating income inequality or whatever is going to lose out in the long run to any …

To me, he's suggesting that the prevalence of general anti-men sentiment within the culture at large is partly responsible for men dropping out of society. College campuses declari…

I guess fraud is OK and laudable if it's done in service of some SJW pet issue huh?
