A lot of people aren't aware of the data collection. In those cases I think calling it stealing is fair.

Beats continuing to bailout the corporations instead of the people.

Ah yes the old "the majority of people are wrong, MY ideas are correct, why doesn't the government just implement all of MY ideas as they're obviously correct" argument.

Are you seriously equating misgendering someone with killing them?

Sure but where does the amount of dividends you're being given come from? All i'm saying is there's no objective "baseline", it's all perceived value no matter how you look at it.

I get what you're trying to say but having multiple potential buyers is literally the definition of liquidity. If you only have one for what you're trying to sell then it's very easy for someone else to sell their share and boom you can't get rid of yours. These secondary markets work because there's a low amount of buyers AND sellers but if there would happen to be a sudden surge in sellers then the low liquidity of the market would eventually show itself.

Disagree. Think about what makes a share liquid: lots of potential buyers (i.e. people perceiving it as a safe investment).

I can't prove that you didn't create me. Where are you going with this?

> And here we are commenting on this "thing" that we clearly understand because X, Y, and Z study that affirms our beliefs says it's so.
No one is claiming to understand. In fact the whole point of the article is about how much we don't understand the problem.

Why believe that a god is reponsible for the gaps rather than believe that we simply don't have the answers yet and that eventually science will give us them (as it has in the past, countless times)?

The same way they put up with it when you ramble about the things you find interesting. People have different tastes - you might find exploring the limits of human knowledge interesting, while some might find analyzing their favourite sports teams performance interesting.

I don't think that quote makes much sense. I can want a specific thing someone has (e.g. praise for work done) without wanting /everything/ they have.

Super noob question but i'm trying to wrap my head around how one could figure out the source code just based on things like debug info and assert strings? I watched the video and am staring at your examples and I just don't understand how you go from those to actual source code.

How does the empty set "create" the set containing the empty set?
brankoB | 6 years ago | on: Physicists Debate Hawking’s Idea That the Universe Had No Beginning
The act of creation requires there to be something there beforehand. You can't create something from nothing, it doesn't make any sense.
brankoB | 6 years ago | on: Physicists Debate Hawking’s Idea That the Universe Had No Beginning
"Pure nothingness" would be the empty set, not a set with something in it.
