There are PO boxes in the meat space for this.

I'm not seeing a way how to cross the cyber and meat space here without doxxing your address at least to some centralized middle men service (PO box) in the process.

Intriguing problem, though.

I agree here with these house examples.

But it can be a slippery slope, and there is a time and place for choosing the principled approach over playing the game becomes too corrupt.

It's a scale with slippery slope.

Especially because *they* won't start actively penalizing the wrong behaviors, they will just keep increasingly subsidizing the pre-approved behaviors (while making alternative choices too costly for most of the people).

Interesting debate would be whether it would be hypocrisy to use the subsidy to build solar for your house while knowing and arguing that the system is net worse for everyone.

I would argue that operating under the fact of these market regulations, it would be ineffective use of capital for you to not use those subsidies.

It's potentially potentially a delicate battle between staying morally uncorrupted and truthful vs surviving.

- Reminds me of the old communist saying in CZ which perfectly describes how this corruption of market incentives breeds corruption of morals - the saying was "Who's not stealing (from the public), is stealing from his family"

Yup. Great option if you're far from the grid, or if the the grid is unreliable and you need to have some backup plans (solar, generator).

Theoretically, if you had access to a reliable grid with a free electricity market with no regulation obstacles or subsidies, the power from the grid would be always cheaper than what you can obtain yourself.

The problem of the subsidies and free market obstacles is that it shifts the incentives of profit maximizatiin away from builduing and maintaining reliable grids with cheap energy inch by inch towards milking the subsidies.

Nice looking form!

Bon appetite.

Could. How to eliminate it?

Maybe if there's a spec to coinjoin with any user-selected coordinator?

Not as much in the bear. But imagine bull with btc actually decoupling in next 2-3 years while all other assets stay at best and true inflation of living costs steady at 10+% and unemployment rising...

How do we hack his prompter???

I just found out that he was on JRE two weeks ago; I totally missed it.

I started listening to it, it's a nice humble level-headed dudes chat. Nothing internet - reading, but solid background for the car ride.

Noteworthy is how he's trying keep his normalcy and stay away from the fiat/fame highlights. Great example to others.

Aah, that makes sense. I approve the prioritization here.

There could be many legis cases for refund (ex airlines, ...) where it makes sense to outsource the hassle to some legal not AI. And they officially presuppose these.

But I'm sure they are aware that they might be boosting fraud as well. But that doesn't mean that they are necessarily the one committing it.

The problem is that the game theory for immoral cc users is 100% win; trivial financial or reputation penalty if caught.
