I am currently setting up my investment portfolio and considering putting like 5-10% into crypto etfs, I literally hate crypto, the only reason I would do it is to bet on people being stupid enough and keeping investing into crypto.
It would be literally a bet on the HL Mencken quote
No one in this world, so far as I know […] has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people.
How else would you bet against AI if not by shorting?
I mean I have heard of betting sites having bets on some weird stuff, maybe they offer AI bubble bursts by x date, but I doubt it
isnt well know he had incident with a former employer over something like last year?
It’s so well known that you can’t even name what it is?
Sure you can be cynical about it, but you could also read beyond the headline
Beyond the monetary fine, the European Commission is ordering Google to restructure parts of its adtech business. Specifically, Google must:
End self-preferencing practices — meaning it cannot give undue advantage to its own services.
Address conflicts of interest within its advertising supply chain.
Ensure fair competition by opening its ecosystem more effectively to rivals.
This will be like Netflix pushing against shared accounts, sure it will work and their revenue will go up, but I will stop being a paying customer and will only watch videos from my notebook with adblocks.
Not sure if you know this but you have a much higher chance of losing the marathon even if you have undiagnosed broken leg.
I am not reading that, like I said I am done.
Then you worded it poorly, also doesn’t matter if it’s subsidized since as I said, they are hit by tarrifs in the EU so they don’t undercut the market, but since you seem to be unable to show complex thought processes I am done with this conversation.
Ps. nice job with your totally not obvious downvoting with your alt account.
You know I can quote you right?
CCP subsidizes the absolute shit out of domestic EVs (and many other emerging technologies) which basically forces people to buy them
This is what prompted the first reply to quote the title “in Europe”, hope this helps, have a nice day.
His point is, da fuck does chinese market have to do with BYD tripling it’s sales in Europe.
Europe has massive tariffs on chinese EVs and they are competitively priced with other brands BYD not selling because they are 30% cheaper in Europe
I am not sure you can say BYD supports a dictator per se, more like it exists in a state capitalist country where you exist at the behest of the dictator.
Elon actively pushed and spent money to get trump elected.
Sure in the case of that girl that pushed the boy to suicide yes, in the case of chatting with randoms online? i have a hard time believing anyone would go to jail, internet is full of “lol,kys”
Now if it’s proven from the logs that chatgpt started replying in a way that pushed this kid to suicide that’s a whole different story
SSN is a good example of the illusion of freedom for Americans, why have a standardized Photo ID when you can have a set of numbers that when leaks can ruin your life.
Time to hit the lawyer and divorce the gym
I think you vastly overestimate my care for how much time I want to invest into setting up music playing, that time is 0.
I want to open an app and have music available for listening, and I want to be able to play it on my alexas so I can listen to music in the bathroom and on my toilet.
That’s it.
everyone has cool recommendations, but so many people disregard UX.
Imma go against the grain on this one and say, thank fuck for Spotify, I don’t want to waste my time sorting and downloading music that i can have on demand anywhere anytime and I can discover cool new music every week.
Ofc, you know, everyone should do what they like, personally I like the spotify model, the same way Steam stopped my gaming piracy, it stopped my need to pirate music.
i still go to the high sees for Movies and TV shows because personally I am passionate about that and I don’t want to deal with shit like music being switched in Scrubs because licenses expired, the music in that show is a huge part for a lot of episodes you can’t just switch it out.
No offense, but Questioning the use of clickbait on youtube is such an idiotic take, clickbait thumbnails and titles make double percentage difference in terms of viewership and thus income for the video. These people employ others, not using clickbait would be a disservice to the employees who depend on this job for their livelihood as a business owner you have a fiduciary duty to the best you can and take care of your employees.
Arguably coops are examples if communism at work, and there are plenty of big successful coops out there.
From another perspective there was never any real communist country.
I mean, they can set sight on Europe, but I am not sure it’s even legal here, so quite an Uphill battle.
If you invest in an S&P500 ETF you are betting on the US economy continuing to grow, if you invest in Euro 6xx etf you are betting on Europe to grow,
If you invest in a world ETF like VWCE you are betting on the world economy continuing to grow, it’s still fucking gambling it’s just the playing the odds.
Me investing in a crypto ETF would be me betting that people are stupid enough to keep putting money into it.
