    I’d have to do more research on the market manipulation that would come with UBI before I form my own opinion. But I certainly agree that TAZs are a great solution, provided they’re accessible. As you said more and larger ones would be needed because current incarnations are usually obscure and difficult to join for the average person.



  • I don’t think that UBI is that magic bullet people are hoping for. In fact I’d be weary too of anything that Silicon Valley is in favor of. But with the fourth industrial revolution at our doorstep, I don’t think UBI is a bad idea. It’s like physically blocking a leaky tap to prevent any more water escaping. It’s better than nothing and right now, we have nothing.




  • (Yh, we should do a TRoER hedge fund then cry on TV when we lose a bunch of our money to Redditors). I always worry about the volatility of these new ecosystems. E-Sports are certainly here to stay, but I’d argue this is a bit more complex than the gambling we would see in something like a CS:GO major, you have a stake in the actors themselves. The final quote in the article is very fitting: “This is either going to be the smartest or stupidest thing I’ve ever done,” he said. “I’ll either buy a house with the money I make from it or never show my face for a year.”
