Why would this guy should go to prison when no one(except one guy in us) went to prison after the massive financial crisis in 2008?I know its naive/rhetorical question but thinking about it, its crazy to me.He did no financial harm too.

Id say this is the most important part.The sugar epidemic of our age is pretty crazy.
> I don't understand the connection between the two. Do you mean the financial considerations?

Yep.They try to save money on the most crucial part of every country and yet they spent vast amounts on so called refugees.It does not make any sense to me..

It blows my mind that rich country like sweden outsource super important info to ibm but on the other side accepts 'refugees' heavily.

Well apple also hoard tons of cash somewhere.Is that any more beneficial for society?Value is imo to big degree subjective and always will be.But your comment was insightful.

Its absurd people are outraged about something like this, relatively harmless and at the same time use Facebook. The social network has your face, all your life, moods, expressions, interests,personal conversation etc. Now THAT is worrying and not some pizza shop which gathers stats to know what type of customer is their frequent visitor.

why the heck she shouldnt sue?
Are the csgo team coaches really good at playing comp. csgo? Dont think its the main quality you need to have to push him forward.You great player but never be able to communicate it to others.But as a good observer with analytical skills you can be great at spotting potential and weakness etc etc
it has always been like that.Few powerful people only.Unfortunatelly socialism emerged like a fake and dangerous pseudosaviour and from then on many people think we are supposed to be 'equal'.
I think long walk/run would be better than staring at yet another screen in this case..just my view. I find both running and walking extremely relaxing.

This is such flat, materialistic comparison. What about going back to roots, hara how its called in Japan, doing one action well, instead of focusing on the amount, focusing on single quality and trying to find beauty in it. I would almost call it practical art. There is something peaceful about it.

well you get suger in bread, fruits etc. You don't have to eat sweets to get daily intake of sugar(For example brain needs sugar for it to work).

Brown sugar is definitely better as a sweetener compare to the white refined sugar as all the healthy parts are stripped.

If you would think of all humankind + planet as one entity, then you would deduce that it does not make sense to create such redundant engines because for you as a one cell it can be enjoyable and cool but for the cell next to you its actually damaging. So its a zero sum game. You should think of others and always ask yourself if your actions does not harm others or at least try to reduce the harm if possible. So yes, I would say the more power, the greater moral responsibility for the future of our species. For sure.

Once you are great mind and able to design modern engines for super cars then I would say you could do many other 'jobs' which would probably benefit us all more than making strong cars.

BTW I like fast cars myself. My conclusion is rather utopian. If you feel like you should do something more beneficial in position of such person who makes engines, maybe you could consider finding another job. But can you generalize that to all? Probably not..

Interesting question. Depends how you working on it. If you are working on improving the efficiency then I would say its ok. If you are tampering with the actual values because your engines are bad to environment then yes, you are directly responsible. Are those workers who put the engine together responsible? Absolutely not. Unless they are aware of such shady actions.

What value do you produce for people when trading forex via algorithms? Honest question.
In that case that would mean that Nick is single point of failure which does not help much. It's single proxy. Although we do not know whether transparent or not.

No it's pretty solid, from the ground up stance. Those who values independence and control over their life are much happier with this setup rather than going too quickly to barely catch up or even fall. I think there is nothing wrong with your observation as long as you remain kind to people around you. Meanwhile you can be figuring up way how make your ideas happen.
Thank you.
