Gold has value beyond store of value, but not nearly as much as you would think. A lot of what makes gold valuable is people's faith on it, and in that sense it's not significantly better than bitcoin. That's not to say that

The problem is that a lot of people can't help themselves from falling prey to the attention seeking media. I don't know whether this is something that should be regulated, but there is some responsibility on the party that's

Let's be honest though, this grid-like interface is going to be used mostly for the NSFW subreddits, where the title and the comments aren't really that important.

I don't think this gives you enough information to judge, to be honest. If your gut is telling you this is a red flag, then you should probably heed that feeling, but what you describe is not necessarily a red flag, there are pros an

Reverse engineering. Basically, if you want to take a compiled binary apart to figure out how it works, IDA is the best tool that there is for that job.

I don't have anything against regulations and fines to keep monopolistic companies in check, but that being said, as an European, I can't help but feel a little appalled that there's so much focus on this and so little on act

Not mutually exclusive, though. The technology is neat, but there's little to justify $4000 a pop tech-wise. Plus, the vast majority of people putting money on it are not buying to fund development or for its future promise, but to sel

Are you suggesting they never had a chance to sell for 19 billion? Because I'm pretty sure all Zuckerberg had to do was pick up the phone in 2009, or even earlier.

Long story short: Document everything in step-by-step guides, then delegate to other people. No earth-shattering advice here. The author also wants to convince you to use Pipefy for that, apparently a Trello for company processes.

In reality most of the complexity lies in how "close to the metal" it is, not so much on the language or the programming techniques per se. Basically, to program for an old console with limited hardware like the NES, you have to u
