Eventually, the US government will prop-up Intel. For the Security Apparatus, is inadmissible to use chips made in China or Taiwan.

"There's thousands of people that have the ability to drain your bank account right now"

Do you have some data to back that up?

Sounds implausible

at least you'll be aware of bubbles.

"Christmas is a celebration of the triumph of humanity over winter"

For half of the world, Christmas is in the middle of the summer

The idea of UNICODE was to avoid that.

Si vis pacem, para bellum

The phrase is "we've always been at war with Eastasia", and it is known because it resumes the core theme of the book. 1984 was written in 1948. There's a reason why it is in the school curricula, but sadly to be forced to read a book obviously creates a bad predisposition. Good books that philosophically shed light on human nature are timeless.

When you put two tables together, each table has 1/2 of the total number of kids. By having 2 tables, now you have 6 kids, so:

the original 1/3 in the first table becomes 1/6

the original 1/3 in the second table becomes 1/6

so adding the two tables means 2/6 are girls

She needs to explain 1/3 of 1/2 (fraction of a fraction) before using an example where she joins two units (two tables)

maybe you're interested in hearing about X tech, or you can tell your "Agent" that you want to buy Y thing, or travel to Z. That's where ads and reviews get thru.

Maybe just force all social apps to a standard data migration format, and an easy UI to move, so you can move you data freely

Free speech DOES grant the right for anyone express opinions without interference from the government. SCOTUS limitations for freedom of speech are very narrow, and being wrong or against the mainstream opinion is not one of them.

As everyone should know is almost impossible to delete something from the net. Google "bitchute dr erikson"

one world standard is not the same as one world government.

one world full bureaucrats regulate-everything-to-death government is a dystopian nightmare.

"Were we directed from Washington when to sow, and when to reap, we should soon want bread" --Thomas Jefferson

"Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it."

--Ronald Reagan

so when (extra) cost goes to zero, the demand goes to infinity?

government regulations on the sale of cabbage total 26,911 words

The only solution is mostly forbid government regulation except for critical things, of which "sale of cabbage" and ten of thousands others now currently regulated are not.

In order to do that within a Democracy, you have to dispel the unconscious notion (that a lot of modern voters have), that the government is a father/mother figure that has unlimited resources, can't make mistakes, and its operated by saints with the "common good" in mind 24/7.

Maybe force the lawmakers to include a text explaining the "spirit" of the law, also including indicators to the law effectiveness. For example, a law is implemented to bring down then "car accidents per million" indicator. If one year later car accidents are the same or more then the law is scrapped.

What you propose of robo-lawyers and law as code sounds as the script for a futuristic Kafka's "The Process" as an episode of Black Mirror.

allowing someone to own an idea is insane

Let's say you have an inspiration, then you work hard on that for 5 years designing up to the last detail of a [business online idea/product]. You put your service online/start selling your product. It's a hit.

Aware of your early success. $BIG COMPANY$ with thousands of engineers and millions of users copies all the details that make your idea a success.

Your early users migrate, now your site goes into the drain, along with all your years of thinking and hard work.

Are you sure that allowing someone to own an idea is insane?

There was no lack of foresight.

But in a dynamic economy is really hard to sustain the cost of continuous preparedness because needs are infinite.

You can start investing as little as $1000, and grow form that, maybe you can reach some relevant invested amount, or maybe you can reach a sensible amount and then pass that to your children for them to continue. Also you can lose all, because investing is not easy.

You've been misled

The top 1 percent paid a greater share of individual income taxes (37.3 percent) than the bottom 90 percent combined (30.5 percent).

the people who started exchanging labor for money and today are billionaires, which "class" do they belong to? What if you work and ALSO invest in another company? What if you work 10 hours a day in your own company? Once you amass capital, there's no need to apply any kind of effort? Capital is indestructible? How many times should we try communism?

Isn't he implying at some point that people are not smart enough to think for themselves?

How many new concepts a new user needs to learn, and how many mental models a new user must develop in order to effectively use your software. Twitter is simple, Git is complex.

There are a lot of humans that are OK with that. The average person do not value privacy that much. There are a lot of people willing to trade data/usage patters for a free app. On the proposition "Pay $5/month or pay $0 but let me track you" a lot of people will choose the 2nd.
