    Can the tiny house movement end homelessness?

    I remember seeing photos from Japan some years ago of an hotel whose rooms were converted pipes about 3 feet in diameter. They don't get much smaller than that.

    Mike Moritz and the declining America worker

    The whoppiny $30m for a 3 year contract is Bloomberg's figures. Probably only for top people though, in AI. Yes it is that important. Invest or die. Perhaps we will see AI pistol packing cowboys on the range lol

    The Rise And Fall Of America

    If there another certainty other than death, it is that the US will make a complete mess over it's foreign affairs. Thrashing about bombing people isn't really the right course of action, is it ? Wake up guys. Your politicians have blown it. Trillions wasted in the ME. Makes even the bad guys...

    The Rise And Fall Of America

    NO LONGER being number one is likely to make lots of troubles. The gooks come out of the brush to promote the most ridiculous cures.

    The Rise And Fall Of America

    According to Putin - the country that gets the upper hand in AI will rule, but for how long ? It might be a surprise to some Americans that the US had staunch allies. But with the gratuitous insults and the " America First" program, the US's allies are fewer than before and less keen to be...

    The Rise And Fall Of America

    It should be a major worry to the USA how China has managed to catch up from a peasant economy, in only 40 years. Maybe democracy has more defects than realised and is slowing down progress ? But of course autocracy limits freedoms of speech etc.

    Mike Moritz and the declining America worker

    There is a noticeable drift of talent from Silicon Valley to...........China. Better deals being offered etc. For instance an average of $30m for a skilled engineer for a 3 year contract.

    Is it too late to become a daytrader at 30?

    You seem to have overlooked the all important P word. Which is profitability. Without that you are sinking whatever age you are.

    Once AI is working well it may have all the qualities for leadership. No self interest or greed. No stupid decisions etc.

    The Rise And Fall Of America

    Looking back on recent US history there was one President who at the time seemed to have all the gifts of leadership. He looked good, sounded great but made a fatal mistake which subsequent leaders have endorsed without realizing circumstances have changed. He was completely hopeless at Foreign...

    Bitcoin vs Gold as a store of value

    One way to get around the value problem is to buy 1,000 acres of (Scottish) moorland at a cheap rate. Then announce the NEW coin is backed by this 1,000 acres and therefore worth X. What you don't put in the ad is that the sale of the second coin makes each only worth 500 acres etc.

    The Rise And Fall Of America

    Crapitalism is no better for the average Joe. The robber barons are alive and living in luxury on the backs of under paid workers. Here in the UK the Union bosses were found to be living for free in upmarket mansions. The Tories ( this word comes down from history meaning thieves ) are no...

    The Rise And Fall Of America

    Freedom is imho a fight worth having but it must be wanted sufficiently by the enslaved. The North Koreans obviously aren't up for it if they can't get rid of one man. Don't deserve it either.

    Even though democracy is poor in many ways, dictatorship, the obvious alternative, is a lot worse except for the elite running it.
