OK and yet you show no comprehension of the subject at hand.

They haven't achieved entanglement yet, which is rather important.

So while it is cool, it's like a CPU that's missing the ALU (that is, not a CPU).

To go into more detail about it:

These aren't counter examples. The important thing is whether you can draw the supply curve and draw the demand curve and find where they meet in equilibrium. It doesn't matter if the demand curve is shaped because or hunger or because of convincing advertising.

The important thing is there are two curves and you need to understand them.

I can only say, Man, really need that seminar. You understood nothing.

I will cheer for you when you win the Nobel prize in economics for proving all the experts wrong.

He definitely didn't have bone spurs.

You don't know how to plot supply/demand curves. You have never seen a set of supply/demand curves. Your entire comment is nonsense.

Seriously, you can educate yourself out of ignorance! Fix your ignorance!

Wow, another Dunning-Kruger genius who is about to win a Nobel prize in economics by proving all experts wrong.

Dunning-Kruger is strong with you.

This shows your ignorance. You live in a parallel universe called "ignorance." There are two curves, a supply curve and a demand curve. Where they cross is the price.

If someone forces you to pay for something, it's a distorted market. That's a different scenario.

Trump is known for his competence. He has a lot of skills which allows him to meddle in his underlings' tasks to help them do it better. I also admire Kim Un for his same approach to using his skillset effectively.

Buy on rumor, sell on news. Bitcoin went up to $120k on the hope the Trump would do things to increase the value (if he did everything people wanted him to do, Bitcoin could have reasonably gone to $250k). The strategic bitcoin reserve was an effort by Trump that showed in fact he was not going to do everything people wanted him to do.

So there's not a lot of hope that Trump will push Bitcoin up to $250k anymore. Wouldn't surprise me if it settled around $45k (based on organic use of legal and illegal money transfers).

Having intrinsic value does not mean there is a floor to its value. The value is set by demand and supply (ie, how much is available and how much people are willing to pay for that).

For example, air is arguably the most valuable thing we can possess, far more important than gold or even water. Yet, I will not pay a single cent for it because it is so abundant. I don't need to pay for it.

(You might consider watching some youtube videos about economics or something, solidify your understanding so you don't write stupid things.)

Lessons in (disfunctional) management: hit the easy targets first, the others may fall in line automatically.

It's an attempt to signal to the employees that didn't get fired.
The layoffs have ended, and "please don't quit."
