Great thread, I like reading something light like this. Anyway, I want to read more about Quantitative Easing (QE) and Open Market Operation (OMO) if OP can extend the discussion since it's the key about "printing money out of thin air" arguments. It got soo bad in the last decade that people should carefully think about it.
4022  Local / Mining (Bahasa Indonesia) / Re: Apakah Halving Bitcoin 2020 Berakibat Fatal Terhadap Penambang? on: May 08, 2020, 12:54:01 PM
  • Apakah Halving Bitcoin 2020 Berakibat Fatal Terhadap Penambangan ?
  • Bagaimana individual ataupun industri pemabangan menghadapi hal ini agar tidak gulung tikar ? khususnya dalam penambangan bitcoin.
  • Setelah halving bitcoin 2020 dapatkah invidiual terus menjadi penambang bitcoin atau sebaliknya, berikan alasannya?
  • Bagaimana mereka menutupi biaya operasional mereka selanjutnya jika itu masih berlanjut ?
1. Dikatakan fatal akan membuat jaringan berhenti tentunya tidak karena tergantung harga BTC, semakin tinggi harga BTC post halving semakin tidak mempengaruhi hashrate.

2. Misalnya harga post halving tidak bisa tinggi, tentu difficulty akan menyesuaikan yang artinya penambang yang sudah tifis untungnya akan berhenti beroperasi, mungkin mereka akan menunggu difficulty lebih mudah baru akan menyalakan alatnya lagi.

3. Penambang baik farm besar ataupun individual semua bergantung pada biaya listrik. Mungkin ada penambang individual yang pakai pembangkit listrik sendiri, atau di daerahnya listrik gratis/sangat murah. Ini umum di daerah aliran sungai yang deras.

4. Seperti biasanya masih ada altcoin lain apabila mining BTC tidak menguntungkan, apabila tidak ada yang menguntungkan ya sudah ganti usaha.

Mining is profitable if you steal electricity dude. Nowadays, mining is for farms somewhere in China or Mongolia with cheap electricity because of its huge rivers.

If you are small-time miners you can only profit if you pick small market cap coins, accumulate, and sell it when pump.

NiP vs HR game 1 was too one-sided. Supream's Meepo (11-0-7) was out of control and demolished HR pretty comfortably. I think HR made a mistake with picking Clinkz as their carry. They should choose a carry with some burst and escape mechanism other than going invisible because the opponent has BH. Secondly, HR doesn't have good (reliable) lockdown abilities overall.

2nd game, Meepo is back Grin HR draft is much better this time. Let's watch it!
4025  Economy / Economics / Re: USD will lose its status of being reserve currency? I am scared. on: May 07, 2020, 07:45:04 PM
No country use only USD in its reserve portfolio I believe. In Indonesia for example, we hold USD along with a basket of various strong currencies, securities, and precious metals. Anyway, Bitcoin may be able to get into crypto asset basket in the future if it keeps performing well and the market mature.

Sumail carry? I think he will take the midlaner position as in the previous team, I think OG is trying to resuffle all their roster, trying the best game from each player, it is not impossible that the sumail position as a carry will be replaced if it is not effective for him in the long run.
Yep, he was "promoted" to position 1, mid to safe lane carry transition should be smooth for a player for his caliber. But this team is different OG because of the new rooster.

I think one of the team will win theis game is the VP or Team secret
Anything can happen in Dota dude. VP and Team Nigma also won several small tournaments in 2020.

Better to predict one step, one game ahead.

4027  Economy / Economics / Re: The EU Should Issue Perpetual Bonds? on: May 07, 2020, 01:51:08 PM
Long term and perpetuity bonds were more appealing to the governments, not to the investors. It is perhaps because of the stock market outperforms the bond market for the past 20 years. And inflation made the coupons basically worthless after tens of years.

Ok with the perpetuity formula, investors can calculate the present value easily and determine the desired price for it. Let's say investors like it and buy it. If things then get desirable for the government, they will let it rust, and conversely, if things become unfavorable, they will call the bond.

Yep, it is more transparent than OMO, but the market may not be able to absorb it.

Dan ketika pada saat cek hasil karya sebelum ditampilin, nah disitu saatnya om periksa tuh copyright musik-musik.

Untuk masalah cross-cek copyright, wajib hukumnya untuk diperiksa secara teliti. Sama seperti memeriksa arus keuangan. kudu ada waktu khusus.
Betul gan cuma masalahnya video promosi kan hanya bumbu saja dalam operasi lapak, dan staf di lapak juga tidak ada yang khusus menangani hak cipta. Kalau keuangan kan sebulan sekali memang harus rekap dan akhir tahun tutup buku, jadi pasti ada staf khusus akuntingnya. Istilahnya bisnisnya kan bukan jualan konten, jadi fokusnya bukan di konten.

Setelah ane cek ternyata dia ambil lagu dari youtube dengan judul clickbait "FREE MUSIC NO COPYRIGHT" dan sebangsanya, dan itu ternyata ada copyrightnya (tergantung keterangan di deskripsi), jadi tidak semua asal comot lalu beres.

Misalnya ini sebagai contoh saja:

Quote
✅ About using the music:

- You MUST include the full credits in your video description.
- You can NOT claim the music as your own.
- You can NOT sell the music anywhere.
- You can NOT use the music as background music for your own musical work without the artist's consent.
- You can NOT use the music without giving any credits in the video description.
- You can NOT remove or add parts from/to the credits.
- You can NOT use third-party software to download the video/track, always use our download links
- You MUST contact the artist if you wish to use the music on any kind of project outside of YouTube.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STzt6dbcipo

Ini kalau tidak diinformasikan ke klien bisa kena strike.

Kalau gambar enggak se-Afgan musik, meskipun ada juga yang mintanya aneh-aneh. Kemudian database gambar yang publik domain atau CC0 (kek pixabay) itu aja sudah cukup lengkap.

Kalau musik ini yang oke sementara ini https://freepd.com/
Ada yang laen?

I think freebitco.in also donates in a similar fashion since they donate 20% of HE at specified times. This way, users can choose if they want to participate or not by playing outside of the scheduled time.

-In every losing bet, 1% of it will be donated to their handpicked charity
-For every win, only 95% of the pot will be transfered to your wallet and the remaining 5% will go to your handpicked charity that is also available on the platform.
What you propose seems like an obligatory thing, not voluntary.

I tried changenow and similar sites like months ago since I don't have time to go to the exchange, wait for deposits and stuff. If the price fluctuates sharply, you'll get rekt for using such services. You can use them if the price is kinda stable. But I don't like it and don't use it anymore since they took too many fees (too expensive for a cheap guy like me).
4031  Economy / Economics / Re: Socialism vs Capitalism Meme Review on: May 06, 2020, 07:03:57 PM
Along with the growing Muslim population throughout the world. Islamic economists claim that the Islamic economic system is an economic system that can bring prosperity to all humans. The new ideology of capitalism and socialism applies at the level of the most basic purpose of human life, and not the true purpose of life. Fundamental goals keep changing so that humans will not be happy. In Islamic economics material is not a goal, but rather a tool/way to achieve the goal so that the benchmark for the success of the Islamic economic system is not more and more material or benefits gained. Rather it is the extent to which the material possessed has benefits to the running of the economy.
Suuureeee, Islamic Economic System is the best! Oh wait, we don't have one.

Quote
In the absence of a fully functioning Islamic economic system such an evolutionary interaction could not take place to pave the way for a credible system of Islamic economic doctrines. After the end of the Golden Period of the first four Caliphs, even the basic precepts of Islam did not remain fully operational. It is, therefore, not surprising that, with the exception of Ibn Khaldun, Muslim scholars, who contributed so much to philosophy, science and mathematics, could not make a mark in the important area of Islamic economics. As a result, we do not have at present anything like Islamic economics in the sense of a body of mutually-consistent doctrines of sufficient generality, "simulating" a real Islamic society. It is best to accept this fact in the field of economics in the manner we have done --and very wisely so-- in politics. A direct implication of this open admission is that, at least for the present, we have to turn to something tried in the field of economics, making sure that it does not contradict the basic philosophy of Islam.
Source: Naqvi (1977) https://sci-hub.tw/10.2307/20847050

Let's read more:

Quote
It may be useful at this point to make clear the 'method' we have employed in deducing the basic elements of an Islamic economic system. We have followed the "axiomatic" approach used in deductive logic: We first set out reasonable axioms which are assumed to hold in all circumstances. After their reasonableness is established they are not open to further question. The next step is then to work out the logical consequences of these axioms. We have adopted as our axioms: (i) Islam assigns central place to the individual in the universe, (also in the economic universe) (ii) However, this freedom entails "responsibility" which in turn implies ethical (and social) constraints on his "natural" freedom. Having accepted these axioms, we then deduce the "rules" or "principles" for a typical Islamic economy. This is the approach we have adopted in this article.
Source: same as above.

I think I read that somewhere:

Partially correct. A free market doesn't mean "absolute freedom" to pursue self-interest so that you can throw away morality to reap as many profits as you can. It is self-interest bounded by morality.

This discussion is more interesting if it's about wealth redistribution (economics) actually since no matter how much you give money to the poor people, they will go back to their previous "level." In other words, they will gamble or doing stupid things with their money until nothing left. But it's their money so they can do whatever they want with it.

I'm watching OG vs NiP 2nd game right now. Pugna is still too strong even after the 7.26a nerf. It looks like NiP will win this game as well.

Edit: Sumail's void demolish them late game  Grin

I think Pogba can be taken with
Ramsay+40m
or
D Costa +40m
Ramsey (29) and Costa (29) are too old for ManUtd standard. OLE like young players, so if they signed any of these players, the management just went from bad to worst.

Anyway, Willian to Spurs?
4035  Economy / Economics / Re: Is Bitcoin the future of the global economy or just another commodity like Gold? on: May 05, 2020, 05:15:41 PM
Let's see the property of Bitcoin:
* Fixed supply;
* Can be used to transfer from A to B without a trusted 3rd party;
* Secure.

That's about it! The system won't lend you money, so you still need lending services that accept deposits, giving interest for such deposits (because of credit default risk), and giving credit score. Oh, it is essentially a bank.
4036  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tactile controllers when playing online. on: May 05, 2020, 04:55:23 PM
It definitely will affect your gaming experience. The pulling lever stuff will give you some satisfaction despite the slots outcome. Even changing your ordinary PC keyboard into a mechanical keyboard will be more enjoyable for gaming and typing. I'm skeptical about it at first, but after I bought one, I will not use an ordinary keyboard anymore. The feel and the sound are just too stimulating. I think it would be the most reasonable thing to improve your gaming experience as no one would build such a mechanical lever only for playing slots online.
4037  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Wagering More or Wagering Less on: May 05, 2020, 03:51:35 PM
Thinking about it, if you manage to level up, usually, you will get more rake back. It's not "win more" per se since your winning chance stays the same, but it will act sort of like HE reduction.

As for the wagering contest, it depends on how competitive it is. I don't think 3861 BTC posted by @janggernaut was worth to get 1/3 BTC.

Sedikit cerita pengalaman, moga gak OOT. Beberapa waktu lalu ane kena strike permanen untuk akun Youtube corporate ane gara-gara si videografer pakai cuplikan lagu tanpa izin. Padahal ane udah mewanti-wanti si penyedia jasa tersebut untuk menggunakan musik yang public domain atau yang bebas dipakai komersial. Sudah bayarnya mahal bikin semua video promosi ane ilang pula, sial Grin *middle finger*

Gimana ya biar laen kali ane ga perlu meriksa musik-musik yang dipakai, karena modal trust saja ndak cukup untuk hal-hal yang seperti ini (meskipun doi mau disuruh remastering ulang), tapi bikin umur berkurang gara-gara sebel.

Afgan bener semua datanya ilang juga.

2. Multisig: apa pula itu?
3. Backup: password1234;
4. Metode backup: email;
5. Enkripsi: what?

4040  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will Ripple prices tank because Ripple Co founder is continuously selling them on: May 04, 2020, 06:21:51 PM
I think they are smart to slowly release the coin so that the market can absorb it. Unless XRP holders suddenly wake and realize that they have been manipulated, the price won't tank anytime soon.

XRP army should realize the price won't pump if insiders keep dumping the coins, and I believe they will give up sooner or later.
