An artist:

(1) bought an Andy Warhol drawing for $20,000

(2) made 999 high-quality forgeries of it

(3) shuffled them together

(4) sold each of the 1,000 drawings for $250 each

"If you pay your $250 maybe you’ll get the original $20,000 Warhol, but you’ll never know."

How did I get here?!?

What's amazing about this is that it's a purely *economic* hack, or an *accounting* hack really. Basic insight: Pricing assets in a network is hard. We're not the first to notice this.

1/6 Today’s 120 million C.R.E.A.M. finance attack was not a bug in the traditional sense - rather two, otherwise normal, blockchain constructs mixing together explosively.

Human capital is the best kind of capital.
Think about it: nobody can take it away from you, you acquire it for free, while getting paid for another job, you can't get taxed on it, it's self-compounding, ...

Yo, LyX is a bit weird and clunky, but it's the fastest way to get something written down in a (latex) paper period. Nothing else can compete.

(including the ones who disagree with you, and that's fine b/c it's all about something greater etc etc)

🤔 fascism but your ingroup includes literally everyone.

Slippery suicide slope.

The Assisted Dying Bill gets its reading in the House of Lords today. Never mind the rhetoric of dignity and compassion; if it passes, we’ll end up with right-liberal sociopaths arguing for ‘mercy killings’ in the name of taxpayer efficiency.

Where are the good old times where corps were soulless monsters that just wanted to make money & everyone knew it? This is not how I imagined my cyberpunk!

Thank you, Lenevo, for this vital information! (NB there is no way to get any details)

In good faith: why are there womxn but not mxn?
Is this purely a healthcare thing? (I feel no)

Yo, ever noticed German electronics manufacturer Siemens is an anagram of Nemesis? [x files music coming in]

There's been a lot of heat re virtue signaling x transphobia about this ad. But isn't the more disturbing thing: how come the company thinks you need to run an ad for googling stuff?!
