Xavi deserves it, don't you even know if xavi was a coach of barcelona with the worst statistic so far? You must be joking if xavi doesn't deserve to be sacked by barcelona. How long barcelona will play as a mediocre team under him?
If this season xavi will give nothing and i do believe if xavi will be sacked pretty soon by barcelona. there's no reason to let him stay even longer as a coach for barcelona.
Does Xavi really have the worst statistic? How do you know it?
Please tell me clear evidence and explanation about it. If you assume it because Xavi still can't give any title for Barcelona, there are many previous coaches who result in no titles as well. So, why Xavi is the worst?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_FC_Barcelona_managers

By the way, I doubt Barcelona will sack him although Xavi gets no title this season. Barcelona will be difficult to find his replacement, not every coach seems suitable for Barcelona style.

2062  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Parents And Their Children In Gambling.. on: November 14, 2022, 11:41:37 PM
The thing is that children follow their parents more than anyone else. If parents are playing gambling and are involved in gambling related activities, their children will follow it too.
Sometimes parents think about why their children play gambling even when they stop their children from gambling. The parents should know if they want their children do not to gamble, they need to refrain from gambling first. There is no way that parents keep gambling and assume that their kids won't follow them.
That's why you don't need to share your gambling activities with your children.
We can tell about gambling habits/activities with wife, but it is wrong to share with children.
I never share something that may bring a bad impact on children, I will keep it away from my children. Children can't understand which one is wrong and which one is right. If they know their parents do something, they will assume it is a good thing to do. Except if they know about gambling when they are mature already, it is up to them. But I will tell them the bad sides of gambling first if I assume they will try gambling. It is the parent's responsibility to give the lessons.

2063  Economy / Economics / Re: Crypto should follow Satoshi's vision. on: November 14, 2022, 11:27:38 PM
But it seems people do not like that freedom which is why centralized exchanges have millions of users and they are playing with people's money. Mt.Gox, FTX, and all other centralized exchanges are the same. They are a threat to crypto. Do not keep your funds in those centralized exchanges. Not your key, not your funds. Dex is the future.
People use CEX because they like the features of CEX, it doesn't mean they dislike DEX and don't support freedom. Also, some people prefer using CEX because they think CEX offers an easier way for them to trade crypto coins. So, I don't see a wrong reason why people use CEX, it makes sense or is acceptable actually. But sadly, many people don't realize the possible risks of using CEX, they do something riskier but they think it is safe. For example, keeping their coins on CEX, people assume it is safe because CEX is monitored by the government. They don't know that the government can't fully control CEX, there is always a chance of manipulation of CEX. But now, since the hot issue about FTX collapse, people will realize the risk of keeping their coins on CEX.

2064  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I want sell my house for bitcoin on: November 14, 2022, 10:55:43 PM
Considering you have 2 houses, selling your abandoned house is okay.
However, if I were you, I won't use all the money to buy Bitcoin. I only use half for buying Bitcoin, while the rest for relatively safer investments such as gold or land. I think diversifying assets is always a better option because no guarantee for profits on Bitcoin, it is also a high-risk investment. Another consideration, sometimes we need urgent money, we can't rely on Bitcoin to sell at any time. Bitcoin is for a long-term holding, the price doesn't always increase, it may drop to a lower price in the next few months. We only can expect to sell Bitcoin in the next bullrun, unfortunately we don't know when the next bullrun really happens. It may be in 2024, 2025, or afterward.

2065  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: November 13, 2022, 11:59:32 PM
So for me, I'd say Arsenal can win the league if they continue winning games and City losing like they did to Brentford...
Up GUNNERS
Dude, you state something definite.
Of course, if Arsenal keeps winning, they must win EPL title.  Grin
Arsenal is leading the EPL standings with 5 points. If they can keep this point gap with Man City until the end of the season, they are 100% the winner. But the question is "can they maintain their good performance until the end of the season"? Considering there are still many remaining matches, I think it is difficult to always win until the season is over. I don't doubt Arsenal squad quality, but EPL is a very competitive league, hard to maintain 100% winning in the long period.

Cristiano Ronaldo has given an explosive interview with Piers Morgan for TalkTV released by The Sun on Sunday night, criticising Manchester United and Erik ten Hag. Ronaldo: "Disrespectful Manchester United have betrayed me. I've been made black sheep. I don't respect Erik ten Hag". He also said there has been "zero progress" at the club since Sir Alex Ferguson retired in the summer of 2013.
It is sad to see Ronaldo's situation at Man United. We all know that he almost joined Man City but he chooses to join Man United because he respects this club and Alex Ferguson. I can understand how he feels now, he feels in vain for choosing Man United. Even worse, Man United management, coach, and even fans seem to blame him. They assume Ronaldo is no longer a productive striker and cause bad results in some matches. Actually, what Ronaldo needs is support from Man United management and the coach, but he got the opposite. In my opinion, the best solution is to leave Man United in upcoming January (next transfer window). He has no future there, Man United is not the same club as he ever played in the Ferguson era.

At thos moment I won't buy any asset for now, as the market have shown a lot of bear signal that pronounces a further fall in price but I don't also want to lose out in this very important period were I can buy more with less price. But what the next direction will be is what I can't tell.
It totally depends on you. If you are afraid of more falls, don't spend your capital now. We may not reach the bottom during this bearish market, Bitcoin is always possible to drop more. But if you don't want to miss buying during this price fall, you can buy gradually. Spend a few of your capital to buy now, but keep some money to buy again if there are further drops/falls. Something we must understand that we don't know what the bottom of the current bearish season is. If we don't buy now, we may miss the opportunity to buy at the lowest prices.

2068  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What is a Quality Post? on: November 13, 2022, 10:55:17 PM
I personally judge that quality posts are posts that always benefit others, even though the writing is irregular or the punctuation is wrong, the most important thing is the intent and purpose of the post.
People will understand the purpose/intent of the post if that post is written in the right way. Instead of understanding the purpose, people probably misunderstand if it is written with the wrong punction, unsuitable words, or not constructed properly. So, don't neglect the correct writing procedures since it determines people's understanding of what we write. It will be useless if people can't understand it, people will miss the purpose of the post.

2069  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin really the future of money? on: November 11, 2022, 09:21:28 PM
I don't think bitcoin is a future Money .Because Bitcoin is a digital currency and it is used as a digital payment method. The use of Bitcoin is increasing day by day. This does not mean that the local fiat money of each country will disappear in the future and Bitcoin will be the only currency used globally. However, in the future, Bitcoin may be used as an alternative coin to fiat money worldwide But it will not be a mandatory currency to use
There are some of your statements are contradictory.
If it becomes an alternative currency in the future, means it is future money too.
Whether it is our main currency or not, it is future money as long as it can survive.

Since the use of Bitcoin is getting massive, it is a sign that Bitcoin has a big chance to survive and to adopt by people around the world. Surely, it is an indicator that Bitcoin is possible to be a future currency.

By the way, although Bitcoin is digital money, doesn't mean it has no chance to be the future money. Digital money/currency becomes more popular, its use is increasingly crucial in the current digital era.

2070  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Not all gambling games are based on luck, some require skills on: November 11, 2022, 08:31:08 PM
Is there any gambling project that have a soccer game and horse racing game onboard? I believe that these two genre are not based on luck but skill that's why I ask this question, since most gambling projects have games that are based on luck like roulette and others.
Do you mean betting? Bet on a soccer match or bet on a horse race?
No one stated that betting is a purely luck-based game, dude.
Betting requires certain skills or the ability to analyze the game, you can't bet if you have no idea about the game.
Even if the luck factor is also a part of betting, we can't classify betting as a luck-based game since the result is determined by our analysis too.

By the way, I believe most gambling sites have betting, it is one of the favorite games.
Check this for an example https://freebitco.in/site/online-betting/Wink

2071  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Copying Bet From Other Unknown Bettors, Is This a Good Practice? on: November 11, 2022, 08:14:54 PM
So for you, is copying bets online a good practices? have you tried it and won before? would you try it when you really want to bet and have no idea where or what sports to bet on?
The feature of copying bets makes people to be lazy and careless bettors.
I think it is always better to bet in our own way, don't instantly follow others. I never tried this way since I disagree with the idea, I don't want to bet because of being influenced by others' bets. When I have no idea to bet, I prefer to not bet on any sports. Following others isn't my style, it is not my effort and I wouldn't be proud even if I can win in that way.

Some people prefer doing this , but they mostly place their bets after those famous personalities who are known to win big from betting.
It is not copying the bets of other bettors but copying the strategies done by others.
I personally won't follow this way since no guarantee to win in the same way.


2072  Local / Bahasa Indonesia (Indonesian) / Re: Isu Resesi 2023, Peluang Beli Bitcoin? on: November 11, 2022, 07:55:01 PM
Menurut keterangan dari IMF memang inflasi global saat ini sedang dalam kondisi meningkat jika dibandingkan 2021, tetapi IMF melaporkan bahwa tahun depan [source], inflasi global diperkirakan menurun dari 8.8% ke 6.4%, jika ini benar, bisa saja resesi tidak terjadi. Jika ada potensi perbaikan kondisi inflasi global, bukankah kemungkinan akan dibarengi dengan kondisi ekonomi global yang mulai membaik?
Ini menarik, ketika isu resesi santer terdengar, malah IMF memberikan fakta berlawanan.
Semoga saja isu resesi ini bukan trik pemerintah atau kelompok-kelompok tertentu untuk meloloskan kebijakan yang memberatkan masyarakat. Misalnya harga BBM naik atau harga pangan naik.

Bisa saja isu resesi sengaja dihembuskan agar masyarakat tidak protes. Terus terang, saya kurang yakin dengan isu resesi ini. Saya paham kalau ekonomi dunia tidak baik-baik saja karena masih dalam masa transisi dari keterpurukan selama Covid kemaren. Cuman harusnya ekonomi dunia di tahun-tahun ke depan akan lebih baik jika situasi berangsur-angsur kembali normal. Kecuali ada kasus lain selevel Covid yang bikin ekonomi dunia tambah ruwet, ya bisa saja beneran kejadian isu resesinya.

Menurut para ahli, infliasi itu disebabkan oleh meningkatnya harga minyak dan gas di Eropa, akibat dampak embargo Rusia, kalau Arab melunak dan mau menurunkan harga minyak tentu inflasi akan melambat, sedangkan Gas yang ditakutkan Eropa tidak disuply Rusia, akhirnya ada bantuan dari Gas Amerika, kapal tanker gas numpuk di pelabuhan eropa memberi harapan hidup perekonomian di sana.
Ini pasti pendapat para ahli dari Barat ya.
Menurut saya ini cuman akal-akalan mereka untuk nego harga minyak dari Arab.
BTW embargo Rusia itu karena sebab ulah dari negara-negara Eropa juga. Kalau Eropa tidak mendukung Ukraina, tidak ada embargo dari Rusia.

*Saya tidak membahas pihak mana yang benar dan salah, saya cuman membahas masalah sebab-akibat.

Btw Posisi Arab Saudi berarti lebih sulit, cadangan minyak menyusut, pengennya harga dinaikkan malah ditawar sama Amerika. Padahal Neom butuh dana besar.
Sulit gimana? Mereka kan yang ngatur harga?
Mereka tidak diposisi wajib menerima penawaran Amerika.
Dengan sumber minyak yang makin terbatas, Amerika mau tidak mau tetap beli meskipun harga Arab naikkan.

buat ngilangin bosan biasanya om, ini ane lihat dari beberapa member kayaknya bukan orang baru di sini karena terlihat cukup paham betul cara kerjanya. tapi ya betul kata om, nyari sensasi buat ngobati kebosanan ibarat main korek api di lumbung jerami, kalau tidak jeli dikit bisa-bisa dicap buruk sebagai spammer dan perusak budaya komunitas.
Terkait orang baru atau orang lama, itu masih sebatas dugaan kalau belum ada bukti. Hanya yang jelas kalau membuat akun baru bukanlah solusi yang pas untuk menghilangkan rasa jenuh atau bosan. Bisa dibayangkan jika setiap kali bosan/jenuh tiap kali itu pula kita membuat akun baru, mau berapa banyak akun baru sampai hilang bosan/jenuhnya. Siklus ini tidak akan ada habisnya karena bosan/jenuh pasti akan terus berulang selama sifat manusianya masih ada.  Grin  Cara paling umum dan bisa diterima yaitu cukup dengan liburan atau hang out dengan keluarga/rekan sejawat. Rencanain aja tiap akhir minggu liburan atau hang out, masalahnya beres tanpa bikin masalah baru.

Iya, nyari sensasi untuk ngilangin bosan/jenuh ibarat "milih narkoba untuk solusi stres".
Masalahnya mungkin hilang sejenak, tapi berpotensi bikin masalah lain yang jauh lebih besar. Bukan hanya terkait kesehatan, tapi bisa kena sanksi hukum kalau kedapatan pihak yang berwenang.

Mereka belum merasakan nilai jual dari merit mas, makanya kalau sudah di legend ga mau nambahin merit dengan alasan rank sudah mentok. Padahal, nilai merit kita memiliki nilai jual ketika kita mau menawarkan jasa.
Setuju. Apalagi ada yang namanya earned merit. Total merit mungkin tidak berubah, tapi earned merit ada expirednya.
Ketika mengajukan ke sebuah campaign signature dengan earned merit minim atau tidak ada sama sekali, secara implisit member tersebut terindikasi 3 hal:
- Minim kontribusinya ke forum
- Low quality post
- Kurang aktif di forum

Dengan 3 indikasi di atas, biasanya BM cenderung skip atau milih member lain yang lebih bagus. Intinya, potensi untuk diterima menjadi kecil.

Saya pernah menjual merit. untuk mendapatkan kampanye.

Jangan salah paham, menjual disini bukan memberikan merit kepada member lain dengan tujuan mendapatkan uang. Tapi, kita menjadikan merit dan rank sebagai penawaran kepada pengembang proyek kalah kita ini adalah salah satu member aktif yang kompeten untuk dipercaya mengerjakan tugas. Jadi, jangan salah paham dan jangan dipotong2. Nanti di sharenya saya jual merit ke user, itu ngefitnah namanya 😆

Semoga bisa dipahami maksud saya.
Paham, Om.
Pada dasarnya merit dan kualitas post itu punya nilai jual tersendiri.
Ketika "apply" pada suatu campaign signature, BM akan melihat nilai jual akunnya apakah memenuhi kriteria atau tidak. Tentu, nilai jual yang terbaik yang akan dipilih.

*Nilai jual di sini maksudnya kualitas akun yang cocok untuk mempromosikan campaign tersebut.

Atletico Madrid negative trend continued after losing to Mallorca, previously Atletico Madrid also failed to get full points after being held to a draw Espanyol and defeated Cadiz. In this match Atletico Madrid seemed confused and didn't know how to score goals, they were able to control the match and excel in terms of shot attempts but none of the opportunities they got were successfully used as goals.
Indeed. In the last 3 matches, they got 2 losses and got 1 draw, they never won a single match. Atletico Madrid is in a very bad situation, they totally lost their winning spirit. I agree that they always made many shot attempts, but they only wasted the chances. I don't know what's wrong with Atletico strikers, they are very bad in accuracy.

The defeat to Mallorca was Atletico's third in the last four matches in all competitions. Simeone is increasingly depressed with Atletico current condition, if he is not able to bring Atletico into a positive trend in the coming games, he must be prepared to lose his job.
Actually, Simeone is a person who has many experiences with bad situations with Atletico Madrid. This is not the first time Atletico Madrid having a problem, but I don't know why Simeone looks very hard to deal with the players this season. I am worried that Simeone no longer has the motivation to build Atletico Madrid squad. Is he planning to leave the club?  Undecided

yup ibarat pepatah, lebih susah mempertahankan dari pada memperjuangkan. kalau sudah mentok, biasanya nyari suasana baru buat menghilangkan kebosanan, misal bikin akun baru atau nyari sensasi.
Rank mentok bukan berarti merit mentok, Om?  Wink
Yang meritnya 1000, motivasinya bisa mencapai merit 2000. Yang meritnya 2000, motivasinya bisa mencapai merit 3000 dan seterusnya.
Saya kira motivasi tidak akan ada habisnya jika melihatnya dari sisi positif. Kecuali memang tujuannya cuman untuk rank-up tok, setelah sampe rank legendary motivasinya otomatis hilang.

BTW bikin akun baru apa hubungannya dengan motivasi?
Nyari sensasi juga buat apa kalau malah hanya bikin repot dan ujung-ujungnya kena cap buruk dari komunitas.
 Undecided

Berdasarkan pengamatan ane terhadap rank-rank yang sudah mentok, biasanya mereka ini sudah tidak ngepost yang bagus-bagus lagi, apalagi sudah nempel signature, mereka ini biasanya ngepost yang biasa saja untuk mengcukupi kuota saja, tapi ndak semua, kalau ane lihat untuk member SFI sudah cukup bagus, tidak begitu ngotot ngejer rank.
Tidak ngepost yang bagus? Berarti ngepost yang buruk-buruk dong?  Cheesy
Gak begitu juga konsepnya, Om. Yang rank mentok mungkin tidak ngepost sebagus sebelumnya ketika berproses rank-up, tapi tidak dalam artian postnya bad quality. Apalagi yang join sigcamp dengan BM yang teliti/ketat, kalau postnya kualitasnya jelek, bisa-bisa malah didepak.

2076  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Coins on an exchange, any exchange, are never safe on: November 10, 2022, 10:15:25 PM
Every day it seems a new story emerges about an exchange going bankrupt. Has been a recurring pattern since the Mt. Gox collapse. Why, with so many examples of failures, do people continue to keep their money on these?
Yep, there will be always news of a bankrupt exchange, it is ideally a warning for everyone to keep their coins in private wallets (not in the exchange wallets). However, not every individual who has crypto coins really understands and realizes the risks. Some of them may be beginners, others may be lazy to move their coins to private wallets because of the transfer fees. And some people may think that even if there is a problem with the exchange, as long as it is a trusted exchange like Binance, they will refund the customers' assets. These people will always consider putting their coins in exchange wallets, so the news of bankrupt exchanges won't work on them.

Firing Tuchel and replacing him with Potter is actually not the right solution for Boehly. I'm sure Chelsea will suffer a setback and it will be very difficult to compete for the title.
I agree that the decision to fire Tuchel seems too hasty, but they already did it. Now, they must focus on the current coach and forget Tuchel. In my opinion, Chelsea should be more patient to give more opportunities for Potter. It won't be a good idea to fire Potter too.

For me, the problem isn't about the coach but the squad. Chelsea has lost the power on the defense and midfield lines, they must plan to buy some strong players to reconstruct these lines. I think Chelsea management must focus on making a list of targetted players to buy in the next transfer window. It is what they can do now.

Chelsea management will certainly regret its decision if the Blues have to finish outside the top four standings.
In theory, Chelsea still has a chance to return to the top 5. But it depends on the players and the coach whether they can improve their performance or not.

another bad result for atleteco today against mallorca, they encase a goal in the first half and i really expected theme to score tge equalizer, they did many goal attempts in the second half but unfortunately the luck was in mallorca side and they was able to keep the score till the end of the match
Yep, Atletico Madrid got a loss again with an unexpected team.
Mallorca is only a small team, but they can defeat Atletico Madrid with 1 goal only. This is simply telling us that Atletico Madrid defenders performed very poorly and their attacking line didn't work properly. Atletico Madrid made 17 shot attempts, it is funny that they can't score a single goal. There is something wrong with Morata and Griezmann, or the problem is with the coach. Honestly, Atletico Madrid doesn't deserve to get a loss in this match.

2079  Economy / Economics / Re: Consumers to Spend More on Black Friday Despite Economic Downturn on: November 09, 2022, 11:08:59 PM
Despite the crash in economy, shoppers still look forward to the Black Friday sales, It’s believed one is saving cost when shopping on Black Friday it’s a psychological thing because the prices aren’t actually discounted in all products, the prices are reduced by a little fraction yet shoppers wait patiently for months to buy on Black Friday. Another thing to note is Black Friday deals aren’t necessities or things that people really need, they are mostly gadgets and fashion items. For months before D-day a lot of shoppers already have a list of items they want to buy on Black Friday.
Sometimes people are aware that they don't need the stuff/goods, but they are difficult to avoid the desire to spend money when they are looking at discounts. Sure, discounts don't mean to drop drastically the prices of stuff/goods, mostly it is only a way to attract consumers by decreasing a bit the initial prices. However, if people still spend their money on Black Friday, we can assume that they are confident to survive during the recession. Or they may not really believe that the recession to happen. But it is also possible that the level of consumption of people today beats the realistic mind to prioritize more urgent things.

I think Elon Musk would use Dogecoin to an extent. Maybe as a tip payment option. It wouldn't be the only available options for payment  obviously, due to the problems tou pointed out, scalability, being the top issue. But does Dogecoin have the required devs needed for the job? That’s the issue
Actually, it is too early to talk deeply about Dogecoin as micropayments on Twitter. He may apply it or may revoke the idea. It is still an idea, very far from realization. I suspect it is only the way to pump Dogecoin price temporarily.  Grin

To be honest, there are many other coins or currencies that are better to be micropayments on Twitter. Dogecoin should be not the priority if we consider its volatility, it is ideally just another option for micropayments. Regarding developers for the job, Elon Musk ideally already thinks about it. He is a smart one, he must analyze it deeply.
