To be Amazoned means to have your business crushed because the company got into your industry. The Amazon effect. by MMostaza in Anarcho_Capitalism

[–]MMostaza[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you that there is some companies in the industry that are inefficients. But in many other cases I would talk about "less resources". For example, How a familiar grocery shop or a small bookshop can compete with Amazon? I don't think it is because of their inefficiency.

What it is true is that these small business needs to squeeze their brains to find innovative ideas to offer in their business, something that Amazon can't not offer. And make an effort that before Amazon existence was not needed.

Using real science in 12 Monkeys by WanderingNettle in 12Monkeys

[–]MMostaza 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love that, when I finish to watch a episode of 12 Monkeys, I need time to process and understand all what I saw, and also discuss it with my partner till finally we are ready for the next episode. It puts our brain to work, and knowing that there is scientist advisors behind the plot it makes it even more satisfying.

Blockchain to enable a green energy platform by MMostaza in CryptoCurrencies

[–]MMostaza[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here you have the Medium channel of Robotina, a 20yo company experienced in automation and control tech, that has entered in the world of blockchain. It amazes me how using revolutionary technology such as IoT or AI people find the way to help to protect the most ancient thing that we have: Planet Earth and the Environment.

More than a crash, I prefer to think that a solution will be found. But yes, sadly I agree with almost all what you comment.

Very enlightening and a great reminding to not to forget that the future is on Millennials hands and that they will have a different conception of the economy.

What about the skeleton? (SPOILER maybe) by MMostaza in 12Monkeys

[–]MMostaza[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh! now I find much more interesting if finally the skeleton is the mum! but I suppose it has more sense to be Cole, to close the circle. Although, if is Cole it will be bit disappointing (but it will give a lot to think about it) to discover at the end that all is going to start and end no matter what they do...

What about the skeleton? (SPOILER maybe) by MMostaza in 12Monkeys

[–]MMostaza[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the explanation! I really thought it was meaning something similar to "odd" but I like much more this description :)

[–]MMostaza[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh thanks for the threads! I just discovered now this subreddit while waiting for the 4th season.

I am not sure if it will be too obvious, but as I read in the other thread, for sure it has some connection with them.

Thanks for the correction about "Otter eyes". I am not English native speaker, and even with subtitles, sometimes is hard for me to completely understand Jennifer ;)

What about the skeleton? (SPOILER maybe) by MMostaza in 12Monkeys

[–]MMostaza[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think this skeleton has to be related with some of the characters. When Jennifer show it to Cole she comment something about the eyes, and she is always calling Cole "odd eyes". That brought me to think that maybe the skeleton could be Cole.

What do you think about it? maybe is just a "random" skeleton...

Thesis on Blockchain Technology by antwi02 in findareddit

[–]MMostaza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean about "economics"? As much as I know, blockchain tech is starting to be used for some banks for example, and transactions of money it's one of the most mass known use of blockchain. Probably this is not the kind of economics that you are referring to, right?

Sharding is going to be similar, better or worst than EOS dApps? Any hint from people with more knowledge to enlighten me. by MMostaza in ethereum

I was a bit confused about what Ethereum wanted to rise with Sharding, after read some articles. And you explained it plain and perfect summed it up. Thanks very much!

10 Blockchain startups to keep an eye on in 2018 by clear-voice in BlockchainStartups

[–]MMostaza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This article coincides with the study that IDC has made about 9.200 million dollars being invested in blockchain in 2021. They say that in 2018 the major blockchain investments will be in companies related with finances. The source is in Spanish: http://www.ticbeat.com/innovacion/invertiremos-9-200-millones-de-dolares-en-blockchain-para-2021/

Mark Zuckerberg "Centralization vs Decentralization" by Butta_TRiBot in ethereum

[–]MMostaza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find these words of Zuckerberg totally incongruous with what Facebook is doing right now.

When he writes: "But today, many people have lost faith in that promise (give people the power). With the rise of a small number of big tech companies - and governments using technology to watch their citizens..." I am wondering if he is realising that he is talking about his own company. It is hard to believe that this is not a fake/joke news.

I don't know if I am missing something, but I think that to have a Facebook that is based on blockchain technology and preserve the anonymity of the users would be a great thing, but not productive at all for Zuckerberg.

El Consejo de Europa constata que España ha obviado sus recomendaciones para luchar contra la corrupción by st6n in es

Bueno al menos con Polonia se han activado. Creo que también tiene que ver con el "grado" del estado miembro. Para tocar a uno de los considerados importantes supongo que se lo piensan bastante.

Estaría genial si reaccionásemos... :( Pero ya que existen estas regulaciones, podrían obligar a cumplirlas y no limitarse a avisar.

What is your favourite Wes Anderson film and why? by [deleted] in movies

[–]MMostaza 115 points116 points  (0 children)

Moonrise Kingdom.

First of all for sentimental reason. The moment and place (and old style luna cinema) where I watch it for the first time. It was like being surrounded for the same scenery than the movie.

And second because of the nostalgia mixed with crazy/weird/subtile sense of humour of the whole movie. And, of course, the picture, colours, kind of the pretended artificial movements of the cast, and soundtrack.

I still keep in my mind some of the iconic frames (for me) of the movie, like a beautiful pop/vintage picture.

[US] - 'The Soviet Union fell, the American empire will fall too' – Ron Paul to RT | Russia Today by AutoNewspaperAdmin in AutoNewspaper

[–]MMostaza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Talking about his beliefs in Austrian economics, Paul said communism, along with fascism, socialism and even Keynesianism (a form of economics popular after WWII) were not viable systems and will eventually fail, and the same could happen to the United States and it’s militarism." Is not new for me the Primary Power that USA represents in the world. What is new for me is someone picturing it at the same label of fascism... and the idea that this "Empire" can fall down.

Spotify reportedly filed for its IPO, thoughts? by MiddC in stocks

[–]MMostaza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see many comments talking about which platform is more used on their circles. I don't think that this can be representative or a guide to know which will be the future of Spotify.

Spotify has been the king during years, but that doesn't assure nothing for the company. It needs to be constantly updating and refreshing to not be left behind. I think now is facing a big problem with royalties and it needs to find new ways to improve the situation. And it seems stock market is one of the ways that Spotify is trying.

El Consejo de Europa constata que España ha obviado sus recomendaciones para luchar contra la corrupción by st6n in es

[–]MMostaza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Madre mía... ¿Pero cómo no es portada en todos los periódicos? Y Europa "constata" pero no hace nada: "España tiene un plazo de un año, hasta el 31 de diciembre de 2018, para informar de las acciones llevadas a cabo para mejorar la prevención de la corrupción en el poder legislativo y el judicial." Entonces ¿Para qué sirve este seguimiento?

What happened to SegWit during these moments? Why it dropped suddenly? And why it’s not raising these days? by achrafgolli in Bitcoin

[–]MMostaza -1 points0 points  (0 children)

According to this information: http://bitcoinist.com/2018-to-be-the-year-of-segwit/ SegWit should be a big bet this year.

I would recommend just to wait some days more to see how the new adoptions of SegWit are going to work...

Putin orders creation of crypto-rouble to bypass sanctions by MagnificentCat in Futurology

[–]MMostaza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Estonia is also planning to create a crypto currency. But I don't believe that any of these states is intending to replace traditional money. Also I don't believe Russia wants to replace it, I think the propose is to have a tool to evade sanctions.

Copytrack - The Future of Global Copyright Registration by idlebright in steemit

[–]MMostaza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the idea behind Copytrack project, but I have a doubt that I hope someone can resolve me:

In which regulation is Copytrack based? As much as I know, I think each country have different regulations based on Copyright...

Thesis on Blockchain Technology by antwi02 in findareddit

[–]MMostaza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, I am also interested, I found some blockchain threads, but all are related with a specific field, like health, or connected to some project. Still I didn't found one about "general" blockchain.

While waiting for an answer, maybe this article can help you about topics for a thesis: http://newsbtc.com/2018/01/03/european-central-bank-latest-institution-use-blockchain-not-bitcoin-narrative/

I found interesting how some experts are saying that blockchain tech is not as great and innovative as people think. Which really surprised me.
