> So it makes sense for someone to pay >= $1,000 in fees to approve and move / swap $1 - $100 worth of tokens? That's like arguing that all container ships are useless because I only order a few dozen small packages a year.

Smart contracts enable all sorts of utility that we are still just barely scraping the surface of.

Fair point. Not everything happening on smart contract platforms is good and some of it may even be bad. The post was asking if value is created and I think that my argument that the market price of doing things in the ecosystem having a re

Speculation of meme coins has dominated the news recently but there are some amazing coins with real utility. Ethereum tends to get viewed negatively because it can become so insanely expensive to do anything on the chain but in reality tha

While I would agree that the government is strongly incentivized to try and regulate crypto I think its hard to argue that stablecoins aren't ticking time bombs. Most of them clearly don't have the assests to back up their market

The worries about stablecoins being used for day to day transactions are pretty interesting. I haven't seen any interest in that online and I personally think transacting with stablecoins would be the worst of the cryptocurrency and cr

As someone who uses the search function on HN regularly I have to agree its pretty jarring to see how many webpages totally disappear. Thankfully the wayback machine exists.

I was wondering how this data was gathered since to my knowledge China has been pretty secretive about their space missions (compared to NASA at least). It looks like the data came from here http://www.r00t.cz/Sats/Tian

Seems like there isn't really any substance to most of the negative reviews. I've never used Trustpilot before but after seeing this it doesn't look like something I would rely on.

Stellaris is having the same issues. It feels like every dlc adds some issues and they've just slowly been piling up. The game isn't even playable most of the time if you don't own all of the dlc due to the balance being horr

Blue Origin has been a very sore loser recently so it's very hard to root for them. However, SpaceX wouldn't be here without NASA taking a big risk on them and BO being given a chance by ULA has certainly helped them along. So I h

The most interesting thing about them making games is the amount of leverage they have with the consoles. Netflix video streaming is absolutely a killer app and I could see them using that to make some really interesting moves that wouldn&#

The plan for Artemis is to get Humans into space using SLS so I think we may be a long way before Starship needs to be human rated for launch. That being said I think we really need to be planning big and if there isn't a future where

The whole notebook doesn't recompute only cells that are dependent on the cell that changed. This is extremely powerful because you never end up with stale cells that are showing incorrect values.

Using a pretty simple atmospheric model going from the original 1,325 km to the newest 540 km altitude, the air density doubles (1.990x). Then there's the increase in velocity since the orbit is now smaller, which is about 300 m/s

Yes early Starships for Artemis were planned to be one way and maximize cargo payload to the Moon but that was before SpaceX was accepted for crewed Artemis missions.

Considering SpaceX got by far the smallest award for the initial bid [0], it's great to see NASA choosing something new in an industry where entrenchment is so prevalent. It's a big disappointment that we haven't seen more fr
