Maybe some Lovecraft's tales (?). There are several advanced civilizations predating humans, but I can't pin down if some evolved strictly on earth.

Why? For me at this point YOLO means a family of detectors that in a single pass propose a bounding box per pixel and filters them with some clustering algorithm. When I see YOLOfoo I know what kind of architecture to expect. A more descrip

I find your take on alternative forms of agriculture a little too optimistic. Even with rotation and biodiversity famines and plagues were common before the use of pesticides. Our technology and knowledge are better now but even with that,

How do you fit pesticides in that framework of thought? - They are unnecessary. Humanity lived thousands of years without them. - They harm billions of animals. - But not using them would condemn us to a subsistence economy. Edit: though fo

Hi, minarchist here. You are almost right in the distinction between right and left anarchism being about private property. But it's a little more profound. The main difference radicates in the conception of legitimate power. For a rig

I like to think of it as the right to freedom of speech and the "spirit" of free speech. The definition of the first is simple. You have the right of not been coerced to (not) say what you do (not) want to say. Note that this incl

The real question should be why would someone want to have something changing every second in his peripheric vision?

You are actually using two arguments that aren't really that related. What I think you're saying (tell me if I'm wrong) is something like: LN doesn't fit BTC core values and BTC without LN doesn't work => BTC doe

It's curious how politics and activists tend to approach definitions backward. Anyone who aims to be rigorous (as politology and sociology should be) knows that you first must define clearly a term and then reason about it. Instead, we

I wonder why in HN you usually find comments of excepcional quality except when it comes to crypto. A NFT doesn't enforce property, humans do. A NFT it's only a token that can have an arbitrary meaning, but with the warranty that

I actually see more anti-crypto than pro-crypto "spam" nowadays (specially on HN) and I'm not wasting my time building overelaborated strawmen. Live and let live.

In fact, the profits of high frequency trading can be seen as rewards for filling the market with liquidity, so it's not strictly an exploit.

Then the issue is in the aforementioned institutions. What's the point in blaming the techonlogy that solves part of the problem?

I'm tired of saying that NFTs are not a tool to verify the original property, which can't be done inside the blockchain, but to prove that the following transactions are legitimate.
