exhibit A: we are all connected through love and war

exhibit B: macro human behavior never changes, we pretty much all desire and react the same way.

exhibit C: history repeats because too few learn from other's mistakes.

exhibit D: it has never ever been a good idea to trust anything a bank says. they don't love you and are at war with you. they are counting on you to fall in love with the wrong girl, again.

exhibit E: 100 years of data is not enough.

Lower interest rates cause people to wait for a lower rate, higher rates cause people to take out loans before the rate goes up again. CBs did the worst possible thing with no historic evidence it would work, as usual.

I wonder if the "privacy" features in Win10 play a role here. Seems like some extra process accounting could cause delays not present in previous versions.

Perhaps you could share your easy three year get out of poverty plan with the poor people you know and gain an informed perspective on your position.

Because housing has a long lasting effect on improved health. There are a number of studies that have drawn this conclusion.

Depending on your location and political views, a marijuana trimming job could work out.

That home then passes on to their offspring, giving them one of the primary tools for staying out of poverty -- a safe place to sleep and store things like food and clothes. People who don't have the safety a home offers are forced to plan for the moment and not for the future.

My explicit argument is $75 billion for healthcare to the poor goes in exactly which pockets? That's always been the scam: Help the poor pay your friend.

What good is healthcare if you have no home and no stability? The problem with reducing poverty is the people trying to reduce it have never been in poverty so all they are doing is guessing, or worse, exploiting.

Where are the victims?

Steal. It's your only way out for convicts in this system. You too don't need to be compassionate and can freely ignore anyone's desire for safety, as you have been labeled as not deserving of either.

The better way is to reduce poverty. You can build whatever "rehibilitation" program you want, but if the future holds no promise, why follow the rules?

i guess it's more awesome to have a bunch of talented developers working on a dead product :/

how awesome would it be if mozilla forked chromium?

The problem with these scientists is they are far too young to have played Ultima II and thus missed out on the opportunity to learn about Pangea.

One conclusion could be that inescapable despair is an indicator of globalized psyops. Depressed individuals will rationalize overspending.

So the sudden 7000% cost increase is just the normal course of business due to a bug? Wow, great business plan -- tell them the first one's free ..then they pay.

If your favored solution is to increase poverty, I don't think you can fairly call it a form of support.

UBI decreases productivity because fewer people will choose to work.

UBI decreases government efficiency because now it has to process sending out checks to every citizen (and some non-citizens, and some dead ones, and some fake ones).

UBI increases taxes because citizens will pay for it.

UBI increases poverty because fewer people will choose to work.

UBI increases crime because more people are impoverished.

UBI increases socialism because that's what it is -- income redistribution, formerly known as theft.

UBI increases the risk of tax revolt.

In a very limited sense they have since the ads you end up seeing are targeted towards your culture based on your browsing history.

Because it encourages adoption of alternative systems.

The Swiss Banking Act of 1934 is an indicator of the magnitude of change that can occur when banking privacy is not respected.

The US emits some strange message of equality, privacy, rights, freedom, justice, a shining beacon of hope...mixed in with secret police forces that operate with impunity. I think that is an incompatibility that will eventually need to be worked out.

Eroding confidence in banking systems shouldn't be an American goal. Instead, protecting and securing those systems should be the goal.

It's unlikely the NSA would illegally infiltrate only one multinational corporate entity given the exposed operational success.

How absurd was Room 641A? Congress had to step in and grant retroactive immunity.

I guess all the Dow futures and options traders should just pack up and go home? Dow trading is as useful as any index with volume in analyzing herd behavior. It's a far better prospect than analyzing any of it's individual components in isolation.

Regardless of the source, full disclosure works. Whomever is responsible for releasing this material is also improving computer security for everyone. Thank you.

I can assure you, practicality and job security have no place in the same sentence when discussing government work.

Obviously, Perl is the NSA top language choice due to it's built in support for obfuscation and job security.

It used to be called mail merge. Now that there are so many abstractions layers, it's apparently best performance wise if you add a VM running inside a VM running inside a VM.
