Would you rather get paid $990,900,000,000 right now or 15 cents every month for the rest of your life?
I’ll take Option B.
That’s what passive income is.
Find a way to make passive income, it’ll change your life.

Another flawed design for a stablecoin has failed and I’d like to explain why. This one is essentially the next iteration of basis/esd/esdv2/nubits so really this isn’t too surprising 🙃

Amazon is moving away from arbitration (basically a private court system), prob for cost reasons when many arbitration claims are made at once.
Wondering what the anarcho-capitalists have to say about this. https://open.spotify.com/episode/07u2L4JnY8fIG00ED8fEIQ?si=qvTjEI5TSk6y9SlfzTS6pg
GPT-3 is like a kid: it's just playing. It doesn't care if what it's saying is "correct", whatever that "correct" might be, unless saying correct things is currently the game. Might GPT-3... get bored after some time?

@doctorow is one of my favorite writers and this thread is great. "between workers and investors, there's a zero-sum game" - this is the ultimate goal of capitalism, as the limit approaches zero, the only number that matters is how much wealth you can extract from other people. https://twitter.com/jennplusplus/status/1397977027798605836

*narrator voice* it turned out that most men are intimidated, more than aroused, by women who are beautiful *and* have technical skills. The enterprise failed spectacularly.

@JEhrenhofer @aklamun Do you think major investors who have backed the project are going to let the price get driven down to nothing, and, why would anyone sell at such ridiculously low prices if they could wait 3 days for a better price: this is all reflexive.

This is beautiful. But what does it mean that it is useful? I think we should aspire to create a society where such an idea is pointless. http://marketdesigner.blogspot.com/2021/05/journal-of-controversial-ideas.html
Just found this gem. It's a real problem when not everything you say is recorded & made searchable all the time. - How are people gonna know (& prove!) if you actually said something bad??

The term "accountability" is constantly used without any reference 'to whom' people/thing are accountable *to*
the concept means nothing without specifying what institution or value-system people have made any obligation to
people…

Ok so chapter 12 of “Noise” by Kahneman, Sibony and Sunstein contains a repeated, incorrect claim about stats / causality: the claim that no correlation implies no causation. Easy to disprove this claim, no math needed, see my next tweet.
This is a good thing, because it makes it harder to view "cancel culture" as a strictly right-wing talking point. Perhaps we can finally have a useful conversation about online outrage?

The trouble with inventing new forms of warfare is that your opponents eventually adopt them. Now conservatives are getting people cancelled too.
