They only claim to do it better, they are not the first. Skycool in Australia has been selling their wavelength selective reflecting/absorbing paint for over a decade now. Unfortunately they don't seem to want to get into the consumer or even small contractor supply chain, or at least they don't hint at it on their latest website. On their old website they had a link to a contractor, but that one is dead now.
If the US bans/embargos any bank which deals with a crypto-exchange then bitcoin will become worthless to Americans (and worth almost nothing to anyone else). If the only way to exchange crypto is shady person to person deals no one will be interested.
Considering how obtuse mathematician's found the proof, rewriting it into something a proof assistant could parse was almost certainly a mammoth task. Trying to nitpick errors in the proof was almost certainly a better use of time.
It takes a lot of supervision to get uncorrupted labour in the third world. Mosquito nets still have some commercial value (plain permethrin even more).
Being a little bitch isn't a badge of honour either. Having an asshole at the top filters out the little bitches, which might ultimately be better for the project.
The problem for the elite is asymmetric warfare. Yes, robot armies can massacre most of the world... but so can biological weapons. As long as we have our brains, they can't go to war against us because we can take them down with us. The first order of business for the neofeudal elite if they wanted to thin us out should be to dumb us down and convince us not to breed except with low IQ partners.
So turn on the TV, have some fluoridated water and vote for mass immigration.
What do you propose to do against malaria? DDT? The situation isn't the same when the US sprayed it everywhere, resistance is in the genetic junk code now, it will evolve far faster. It's doubtful the same success could be had with DDT again. Solutions now require discipline, organization and persistence.
Also we can only really help them with money, unless you propose colonizing third world shitholes and directing the labour ourselves. If they can't form a slightly sane government they are shit out of luck.
The simplest solution is many world theory, an unfortunately named theory... there are no worlds, just an infinity of myopic interpretations of the wave function by some deluded parts of it.
Credit cards indemnify you against counterparty risk and to a large degree your own stupidity along the way, banks do too to some extent (when my card got skimmed I got my money back for instance). With crypto if your computer/phone gets owned or you deal with a fraudster, you're fucked.
Gemini has some delay to let them stop someone cashing out, but that's unlikely to be used for civil disagreements. That's just for when government is at their doorstep.
Credit card fees can be expensive for some industries (porn) and cryptocurrencies avoid some of the regulatory burdens for money transfers. For as long the financial regulators let them get away with it any way.
Not that the user experience of cryptocurrency is nearly ready for mainstream use yet.
With a high degree of certainty. They have the contractual obligation to pay you back (within the law, money laundering or anti-terrorism measures etc might get in the way) and they have a trustworthy third party certifying they have the assets to pay everyone back. They have some counter party risks a bank won't have though, the Ethereum network could be compromised for instance.
After a recent operation the first thing they did in the recovery room is shoot me full of opioids and I'm in commie Europe. When I went home I got a small number of oxycodone tablets for if things went off the deep end and the NSAIDs became useless (as they tend to do for serious pain). What's supposed to be the alternative?
Between stereo and inter frame processing using the known car speed/direction you can reconstruct a 3D representation without LIDAR. LIDAR has problems too. The mutual interference which LIDAR suffers from requires some very expensive tricks to prevent... especially expensive for non scanning LIDAR, which is the best LIDAR because fuck mechanical 2D scanners. LIDAR is a dead end. high resolution radar would be nice though for heavy rain and fog.
As for designing their own neural network ICs, better than be dragged over a barrel by NVIDIA. You really don't want to be in a situation where you are dependent on NVIDIA, nothing good will come from it. All the other neural network accelerators just don't have the market volume to rely on long term availability or support.
What if I think having anal sex makes someone a bit yucky and having anal sex without a condom with a metric fuckton of partners makes you very yucky and a public health hazard?
I don't think you understand how quotation marks work.
Physical labor is in my experience much more socializing than modern high school. Restorative justice public high schools are the worst environment to mingle with the lower class, it doesn't shape them up... it's part of what they have to escape. Forcing everyone to deal with the insanity of being locked up with the lunatics isn't going to improve matters, it won't make kids more progressive, it will make them harder.
I think your scheme would backfire, at the moment they are mostly paternalistic. I think your scheme would make them outright classist.
If you want to teach your kids empathy with the lower classes have them do some physical blue collar work, the working class is the better class of the lower class.
This was paid for by a state guaranteed loan from Germany, which is never going to be paid back because Egypt won't stop being an economic basket case. Western governments are using loans as disguised foreign aid to prop up countries in a Malthusian trap... trying to keep the status quo going for a bit longer. It's all going to come tumbling down, the only question is if there will be an Europe at the end of it or if we will join Africa and the Middle-East's descend into Anarchy.
I'm guessing we will, I'm also guessing the US and Israel have plans to sabotage/capture all nuclear material in Europe and the non Israeli Middle East for when it does happen. It would be silly not to have them.
Egyptian government and their allies (including the west) probably strong armed Ethiopia into delaying the dam. If that had already happened it is much more likely that the Ethiopian government had him killed to cover up that fact.
He had become irrelevant to Egypt, but a thorn in the side of Ethiopian government.
Don't worry, once their economy collapses most of the population will try to flee to Europe and after a while civil war will take care of the real problem.

IMO they are trying to avoid getting anti-trust lawsuits aimed at them, if they take everything in house they are painting a bullseye on themselves.
Gotta leave some crumbs.

Overall consumption kept pace with per worker productivity.
Unfortunately per worked productivity is nearly unbounded yet consumption is constrained by natural resources.

Still, chances are good.

Your body can be in ketosis for part of the day, it doesn't suddenly magic up extra glucose just because you ate 51g of carbs instead of 50.
That's not how it works. Heads of state don't allow direct assassination of other heads of state, it's self preservation.
Supporting a coup, that's kosher.

Ah yes, high ability kids with good parents must suffer to increase the scores of section 8 kids by a percentage point through osmosis ...

Overpopulation.
A good thing then the Air Marshal isn't allowed to demonstrate power or exercise control unless a crime occurs.
Worry about the traffic cop who can bust your tail light, not about an Air Marshall making some notes.
