This makes a lot of sense and I wish it were easier to do elsewhere. Probably wouldn't leave the vs code ecosystem for this alone, though.

The focus here is on the environment. However, plastic is linked to many health issues as well.

> I just hope that fear of the old power structures doesn’t bring good people to ally with values that we would not want in a new system.

That's why people need to call BS on the current hype train. Otherwise, when a sufficient solution surfaces, people are going to distrust it just as much as the old power structures. And I'd say we're already getting close to that point.

The problem is, with equal distrust, people will tend to choose the option that doesn't require change.

No, because your holding increases the price until someone else decides it's time to tell. In other words, the lack of liquidity increases price. Regarding your original question, that increase is GOOD for the company because it can raise more money for selling the same amount of stock.

> If you buy stock from other stock owners it doesn't help the business

Incorrect. That's what keeps the market for the stock liquid, and that contributes to value which the company can exploit through future stock issuing. Not to mention the indirect benefits to stakeholders within the company in terms of price and liquidity.

Based on your numbers, owning guns has no affect or even a negative affect.

Yeah, that's makes it even more insidious.

Legacy. Do you really think they're only worried about profits at this point?

At their ages they can barely stand on their own, so I'm not too worried about any grandstanding.

Exactly. But these guys are too old for the short game at this point. They are about legacy. And that should make these statements hit that much harder.

It's against everything they stand for in terms of value investing.

Thanks for the tip!

The moral problems exist for a minority of USD, but a majority of BTC.

I'm not familiar with foreign drug and weapons markets, but even so,

That is still a significant minority compared to USD as a whole. BTC as a whole is used for just that and gambling.

Bitcoin doesn't have the equivalent of a "free press."

And TOR is rarely used. Journalists use apps like Signal now.

It's very interesting, actually.

I interpreted as "Bitcoin is bad but the cult of Bitcoin is nuts so we have to be careful about what we say."

What's more interesting is how the Bitcoin investor club is managing to delude themselves even with inputs from real proven financiers.

When was the last time you tried to move a million in cash? It's not that easy...

Yes, and yes. But, if Berkshire wanted to they could pump BTC to new heights and undoubtedly make a profit.

Except the primary use of the dollar is good. The same can't be said about the primary use for Bitcoin (which is, at best, speculation).

Working together is in the best interest of humans. Humans require trust to operate. A system designed around mistrust is inherently against our nature.

Very true. But GDPR is pure annoyance. I wish they would 100X consequences of offenders and quit wasting development time on the worthless permission prompts.

Is it mission critical?

Sometimes a data loss can be quite liberating.

GIYF.

Or in other words, "teach a man to fish..."

> That does not make you a health Messiah, quite the opposite really

Nice to see how you interpreted things, but that's all it is.

My point was alluding to the continuous practice.

And the proof is what I see in my and my partner's fitness compared to that of our peers. But don't take it from some random on the internet.

Lastly, yes it's a lot of hard work, and yes that's why you're avoiding it. Good luck!

Nothing ironic at all.

That's how I treat anything that is important to me.

I like to ask questions. And the world is always changing. To think continuous change is "ironic" sounds problematic to me. I mean, that's why they little fat kid inside the large obese woman thinks it's still alright to eat cake for breakfast.

Edit: there is such a thing as eating right for your age!

Yes, the snoring and sleep apnea is a big one.

It was so sad to see, but weight loss from cancer in obese people does the same thing (cure sleep disorders). If only those people could have realized that before their bodies degraded into cancer.

> sources of pleasure and relief

So it can be. And I have food addicts in my family so I'm familiar with it. Have you tried cannabis?

While I agree about other factors contributing, your missing how vital food is in the equation.

All of the things you mentioned are highly dependent on food. For example, high amounts of sugar will undoubtedly lead to depression and burnout, not to mention diabetes.

> starting with what we eat is a good first step to regain control

Yes, it is absolutely the first step. And it's one you have most control over. Focus on the things you can control.

It's sad that companies act so immorally that GDPR must exist.

But I guess it's good this guy found yet another way to recover lost data?
