I do not dispute anything this article says. I just want to point out that the current reality of blockchains is harm. All the positives of blockchains are hypothetical scenarios, none of which currently exist. That's all there is to i

Seriously. I feel like there should be some rule that any link to a news story should be a link to a major trustworthy news organization. When I see these other domains I immediately assume fake news.

An Apple ||gs getting online is pretty commonplace, so a 486 isn't that impressive or rare. Definitely far from the last.

Hosting a web application if you aren't a professional, and want to save money. Seeing as its my entire job, I have no problem getting all kinds of web applications setup and running on all kinds of platforms. But I was recently trying

I not only am good at communicating with stakeholders, I enjoy doing so. But every place I’ve worked doesn’t even allow it. There is always a product team to act as a go-between/wall between stakeholders and engineering.

This is me. The problem is all the jobs I see just want me to use one specific part of my large skill set. A lot of the things I know go largely unused at my job. There’s also a corollary problem. The few places that do want my depth almost

I pay for something if I use it frequently. If I don't use it frequently, I cancel or don't sign up in the first place.

100%. I remember in the 2000s I went to a small gathering where a successful (at the time) start-up founder was speaking. Since it was so small I was able to ask real questions. What I asked was effectively "I'd like to do a start

I didn't read the article, but ignorance is bliss. There are a lot of things to be unhappy about in this world that no amount of individual intelligence can fix. Climate change, war, disease, poverty. Even if my life is pretty great, r

The problem I have is that almost every recruiter that emails me lists the positions they are trying to fill. Almost all of those positions are ones to which I am morally opposed. It's a waste of both of our time to respond positively

To answer the question posed by the site. How can they afford 261MB page load instead of 5MB? Because the largest expense of delivering video, the bandwidth, is still very cheap. We're talking less than one cent per gigabyte. Even if a

Sad to say, that's what it costs. You might be able to save a few bucks shopping around or using mail-in photo labs, but not much. Also, prices are going up these days for both film and developing. It's only gotten more expensive

"You don't need the cloud" but then you suggest using a hosting provider. Guess what? That's the cloud. To be not the cloud is has to be your own hardware that you are managing directly.

Defense, advertising, finance, MLM, crypto, and gambling are the major ones that I can describe with a single word each. There are many many more, though.

I can't find a better job. I can easily find a job that pays more money, but I can't find a job that checks all the boxes. 1. Not an immoral business. (My moral standard is extremely high.) 2. Pays more. 3. As much or more PTO as

I loaded up the suggested Webster's 1913 dictionary on my ereader to test it out. I picked two random words on the current page of the book I'm reading. Neither "condolences" or "constraint" were in that dictio

TL;DR: The only methods discussed in this episode are SIM swapping and password guessing. Neither of which are relevant for OP. Unless OP is lying, there must be some other method used.
