I think being very selective makes a lot of sense, especially since the UI gets kind of cluttered when there are lots of markets. You don't want random low interest games crowding out the other markets.

One, most people were reacting to a single frame and hadn't bothered to watch the video.
Two, that's not a Nazi salute in the video. It just overlapped in the eventual arm angle. Nazi salutes didn't start from a palm on the heart and then a chop outwards.
More importantly, it makes no sense at all to think he's going to be intentionally doing Nazi salutes in public.

I think those are great. We had a lot of fun with the NBA games you put up a couple of months ago.

What does any of that have to do with being a Nazi?
Again, this isn't about giving Elon the benefit of the doubt. The media has called every significant figure on the right a Nazi for this entire century. It's dumb. That's my point.
There's no constituency that Nazism appeals to. It makes no sense to be dog whistling to Nazis or any other form of hinting at it. It's utterly deranged to see Nazis everywhere.

My point exactly. We're familiar with what those in power push on us.
Beating the Nazis is exhibit A in the "America's the good guy" mythos.
South Africa presumably has something else, although it's hard to imagine what. Their history is pretty ugly.

Interesting, I am an actual economist, so there might be other aspects I could help with. One of my fields was experimental economics, so I have some experience thinking about mechanism designs.

He's also not American. Maybe South Africans aren't endlessly bombarded with World War II shit the way Americans are.
If he had made some gesture that's associated with Pol Pot, or almost any other horrible genocidal maniac, we wouldn't realize it.

Yeah, the description from Snopes explains that there's more audience back there. It's not really that confusing.
It's not the benefit of the doubt to Elon. It's an acknowledgement that no one of any prominence is trying to be affiliated with Nazis.
What is it that you think is going on here? Elon's a secret Nazi and in a moment of excitement he let his guard down?

It really should have been. This must just be a draft.

Yeah, but singular makes more sense than plural for a maxi.
I like BitcoinBiker more than BitcoinRider.

Even Snopes acknowledged that the picture was taken mid gesture, as he was moving his hand from his heart to pointing at the crowd, after saying how much he appreciated them.
Musk said to the crowd gathered in honor of Trump's victory, "And I just want to say thank you for making it happen. Thank you." He then briskly extended his right hand from his heart to the crowd in front of him. He repeated the gesture for the people behind him. Then, in a moment omitted from the users' videos, he said, placing his hand over his heart, "Thank you. My heart goes out to you. It is thanks to you that the future of civilization is assured, thanks to you."
No one is doing Nazi salutes. It's preposterous. Even if the gesture looks similar, that's not what he's doing.

Boy, I can relate to that.

Look at that: number 1 at everything except winning.
97 sats \ 0 replies \ @Undisciplined 9h \ on: I should have studied economics econ
Economic cycles (presumably business cycles) are caused by artificial credit expansion. Now, that's not impossible on a bitcoin standard, as there could be lenders engaging in fractional reserve practices. However, this would be so much more transparent and limited on a bitcoin standard that I doubt it will be a big issue.
The answer about "deflationary nature" is just all kinds of wrong.
The "behavioral economics" point is kind of dumb Keynesianism.
Overall, it's an ok answer. The problem is that all AI can do is tell you what others have written and a lot of the economics field is nonsense. Garbage in, garbage out.

In the words of @realBitcoinDog, "You can't lose, if you're always winning."

There would have been even more activity, if we hadn't crashed the site.
