What are /r/TrueTrueReddit's favorite Products & Services?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

It may be easy to set up for you or me, but I wouldn't call it simple. And mail servers do follow the Murphy's law closely. Having your mail server die mysteriously when you are on a business trip is not a fun experience.

This "dumbfuck" got a reply from an actual economist that is slightly more favorable than your own:

> Separating macro and micro

> Good post. The post Scott makes is very important—we have to separate the micro and macro effects of a UBI. The main purpose of the UBI is to produce microeconomic benefits like social insurance, better work incentives (compared to the existing welfare system), and promoting entrepreneurship. The macro effects—like the fear of inflation—can be controlled if the program is designed right. Scott’s example of milk is right on the mark: If a UBI replaces food stamps, there is no new money, no new inflation, because it costs no more for the government to give people cash than to give them food stamps.

I think people prefer different level of strictness when it comes to rules. I would love to see a chain of subreddits from /r/reddit.com over /r/TR to /r/TTR and beyond so that everybody feels comfortable with his subreddits.

I believe that there is no need for the stricter moderation as proposed by republicofreddit when all there needs to be done is starting a new subreddit every two years. People who read great articles should be able to subscribe to a new subreddit when the time has come.

*edit: Malcolm Gladwell on spaghetti sauce, there is not the best subreddit for everybody but we have to create the best subreddit*s* for everybody.

This also reminds me of a passage from Economics in One Lesson:

>Just as there is no technical improvement that would not hurt someone, so there is no change in public taste or morals, even for the better, that would not hurt someone. An increase in sobriety would put thousands of bartenders out of business. A decline in gambling would force croupiers and racing touts to seek more productive occupations. A growth of male chastity would ruin the oldest profession in the world.

The change in public taste has been towards free music (made possible by technology); the change in public morality has been that pirating music is not so bad.

People have different preferences for structure. I'm not trying to create the best subreddit but the best subreddit*s*. (see: Gladwell).

There's a great book about some physics grad students beating roulette. Like the MIT blackjack team but more technologically advanced with computers in shoes.

Collapse has a lot of information on these types of problems.

Short version is: I'm not super optimistic that, if we haven't been able to solve these problems in the past, we suddenly will going forward.

I believe it's in his book "Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind". I don't have it in front of me.

There is no particular relationship between atheism and Buddhism. They aren't exclusive either. You can be atheist and study/practice Buddhism, no problem. There is nothing in the four noble truths or eightfold path that says "gods exist and you have to believe in them to be Buddhist". Nothing like that whatsoever.

That some Buddhist traditions include gods and that some Asian Buddhists believe in gods does not mean that belief is required of all Buddhists everywhere. To argue otherwise really kind of just shows you're not too familiar with Buddhism. To claim "you're not Buddhist if you don't believe in gods" is also nonsense.

Good article to read. I recommend, as another worthwhile read, Kapuscinski's Another Day of Life

Good reporting from Luanda
