Comment Talking Snake (Score 1) 1121

The best argument against the GENESIS myth is the talking snake.

The story has devil in form of the talking snake. A lot of talking animals are also present in cartoons and are purely fake.

If, god was a being that created the humans, then how can devil be a shape-shifting being that can talk in a language of Adam and Eve that did not have their own language to learn in the first place.

Why would god want to teach them the language of gods, if he had prohibited them from eating the wisdom apple, so that they do not learn anything that the gods know. The genesis book contradicted itself in this, god has given knowledge before they even ate the apple and therefore he just behaved like a very spoiled child for throwing them out of the house for learning something new !

If the super intelligent creationist god does behave like a 9 year old child, than the whole story is rather fishy.

You are mislead by the crazy people who were first to support bitcoin, look up the recent investors, who invested into bitcoin companies. Are you claiming them to be insane for having invested into similarly crazy ideas that did work out. Those VC people know money when they smell it. Have a second look at bitcoin, but do not look at it as money. Look at it as a very liquid kind of stock that you can pay with.

Journal Journal: The information inequality.

The information inequality is a basic concept in price building. The people who know the real value, get the best price. Others have to guess and are often tricked, because they have no information about the product or value or competition or alternatives, etc.

It would have been better to ask the older employees to get paid less. Some of them would be willing to reduce their pay, if they get a guaranteed contract for 3 to 5 years. Manages are very dumb at thinking long term, becasue the invisible HR costs and employee loyalty is a very low advantage in their eyes. They are very wrong.

The Google CEO is aware of the coming inflation of the USD, which will plummet US stock, because the international investors will relocate the assets to other countries in case of an inflation. The inflation is needed to reduce the US debt. Or did you really think that the USA is going to create more money out of nothing. They will just make the debt less valuable and pay off with ease. He is actually behind schedule, becasue other super rich people already dumped the stocks from USA. China will demand payment very soon, so that the inflation is the only possible way of reducing the value of the debt in a quick way.

Journal Journal: Money is a great bubble of hour time.

Money is a great bubble of hour time.

I have looked at it 6 month after they started, but never believed that the early investors would convince enough people to invest into it. Yes, I do regret that I did not buy, but feel cleaner to stay out of the scam that will bring unequal money-access to the masses of people who never bothered to understand monetary dynamics.

Comment Welcome to Bureaucracy Superpower (Score 1) 272

The bureaucrats in the USA must be getting filthy rich from all of those ridicules patents that they approve.

The patent processing fees are probably in the millions per month.

The only reason for patents to exist, is the processing fee that gets paid to bureaucrats. They encourage the companies to file more patents by approving all of the possible ones and rejecting them, if anybody complains later on.

This bureaucratic money making system is beautiful.

Comment Looking for errors is fun game (Score 1) 626

So this reasoning human was looking for errors.

The fun thing of this game is that the assumptions of this human were also wrong.

The world-population is not growing as fast as it has been and the numbers of people are going to decline in the future, if the housing is going to continue to be so expensive.

Comment Few Countries (Score 1) 108

Unfortunately there are only a few countries where the drones of today may be economical.

Look at Ecuador for example, they have slow infrastructure and insane mountains everywhere. Drones would connect this relatively small country very well. They have small landing fields everywhere and possible delivery needs of all sorts.
