joshsyn··on It feels like America is running out of everything
Nope. What is the irony?
joshsyn··on It feels like America is running out of everything
Without the wealthy (who run the company), we wouldn't have great products, and jobs, and pursuing our careers and self interests.
joshsyn··on It feels like America is running out of everything
There is a real problem in today's society which is the today's so called progressives worldview and divisive mentality.
joshsyn··on It feels like America is running out of everything
This isn't really surprising to me, as this is what happens when you have lockdowns worldwide travel bans in place. The supply chain gets affected. It throws the market out of whack, imbalance in the prices, and most importantly people lives out of order. Years of work thrown down the tube by bunch of central planners. The economy consists of everyone working to support themselves and their families, not just the rich.
joshsyn··on Ask HN: Why are relational DBs are the standard instead of graph-based DBs?
I really believe this has to do with reliability and performance. Intuitively speaking I'd agree with you that graphs are more higher-level concepts.
joshsyn··on Lightning Network Flaws
So you dismiss by attacking his character instead of refuting his claims by evidence?
joshsyn··on Lightning Network Flaws
Couldn't agree more.
joshsyn··on Insider trading by executives is pervasive – research
Insider Trading is one of the stupid laws I have come across. There is always going to be asymmetry in information.
joshsyn··on Former NSA Hacker Describes Being Recruited for UAE Spy Program
If we are not okay with foreign countries spying, why are we okay with our own government spying on us?
joshsyn··on Court issues permanent injunction in Epic vs. Apple case
Stop using apple then? Why do you need government to tell apple how to run their company? All these seems really absurd and incompetent coming from Epic.
joshsyn··on Solar power in Australia outstrips coal-fired electricity for first time
Cults are wrong most of the time, ask any cults or mob mentality. Oh wait they can't cause they don't think for themselves. Ok. Btw I don't really give a shit what others think of me, you are mistaken to think otherwise, if they have no value in my life.

I only have a problem when someone tries to propose blanket ban/control of anybody. Yes, because this country has too many rules and a shit-show for doing business. Not that the cult-like mentality of the general public is helping.

joshsyn··on Dutch entrepreneurs avoiding negative interest by opening multiple bank accounts
Chuckle, do you either work in a bank or government? Scared of losing job? Understandable. You have to be computer illiterate to not know how to keep your keys safe. We'll get there. While you are ok with funny money. Just a matter of time.

If you ignore the volatility, crypto makes a lot of sense.
joshsyn··on Australia is becoming a surveillance state
It will be interesting and funny, when food distribution will be impacted due to people's stupidity, and you will have to resort to growing your own food. Because lockdown for everyone means including those big bulky trucks that fill up the supermarket. Because profit right? Famine, and starvation...
joshsyn··on Solar power in Australia outstrips coal-fired electricity for first time
Yeah also part of being an individualist society, is despite not being able to agree give respect others rights and freedom, not calling for bans for things you don't like. Keep rolling on the downvote. lol
joshsyn··on Solar power in Australia outstrips coal-fired electricity for first time
you learn something new everyday
joshsyn··on Solar power in Australia outstrips coal-fired electricity for first time
If someone calls for a ban for using electricity, they go into a weird place in my list. You pay for using electricity, simple use whatever you want. Market dynamics control supply and demand, not anybody's wishes or self-righteousness
joshsyn··on Australia is becoming a surveillance state
When is running a livelihood harmful to someone? Your entire premise is based on all businessmen are psychopaths, which is very narrow-minded.
joshsyn··on Australia is becoming a surveillance state
Ah so what you view as business profits, somebody views it as a livelihood, way to live does not mean anything? But no its just profits.

Sounds like Australia has got ideas from CCP.

joshsyn··on Australia is becoming a surveillance state
So as an individual, it doesn't matter if your livelihood is destroyed because for the greater good of the community?
joshsyn··on Australia is becoming a surveillance state
So who pays to support dozens of people who lost their jobs in the name of protecting one guy?
joshsyn··on Australia is becoming a surveillance state
is there an online community to discuss specifically these things? Which countries do you have in mind?
joshsyn··on Australia is becoming a surveillance state
Which is exactly the kind of complicitness I have an issue with. I don't believe in giving bureaucrats enormous power over an individual. Freedom is easy to give away, hard to take back. Plenty of examples around, why.
joshsyn··on Australia is becoming a surveillance state
hope to leave this country for good sooner or later. Lot of complicit people willing to trade-off freedom for false sense of security.
joshsyn··on Jeff Bezos loses attempt to block the Moon-landing contract NASA gave to SpaceX
Exactly most of the complaints I find are simply out of jealousy of their accomplishments and the need for power among people who want to put limits on their achievements. Can we revert back to its none of your business what they do?
joshsyn··on Jeff Bezos loses attempt to block the Moon-landing contract NASA gave to SpaceX
Call them what you want. They pushed the world forward, period.
joshsyn··on Germany fines YouTube for removing video of anti-lockdown protest
It would be nice if google simply ceases operation in Germany and blame its government for adding difficulties and then watch the germans infuriate over their own government.
joshsyn··on Germany fines YouTube for removing video of anti-lockdown protest
I am surprised you are downvoted. Engineers are the worst kind of people to make rules, as they see things as simply black and white when things are much more nuanced. Best thing to do is "mind your own business". Unfortunately they feel its their business lol
joshsyn··on Audio editor Audacity denies spyware accusation
I am dumbfounded why people who don't contribute anything to Audacity but merely use it act as if they have governance over the project. Maybe build your own? I am tired of this mob/herd justice mentality.
joshsyn··on Google reports soaring attrition among Black women
Exactly such polluted minds thinking they know the totality of society. Where has socialism ever worked. It sounds good in paper, leads to failure of society ultimately.
