Maybe this was the plan all along? Tell everyone they need to accept or the app will stop working.. then when backlash inevitably hits hard they can backtrack. But by now 99% have already accepted. So: Can I change my decision then?

Poor opinion piece. Not a single mention of Ethereum switching to proof-of-stake which will reduce the power requirements by ~99,9%. Because the author doesn't know or because he wants to only show one side of the argument? The "a

Stock market returns make sense only when you realize the currency is actually just losing value. All currency is being devalued so you don't see it in currency pairs but scarce assets go up quickly.

In the extreme case the municipality will rent it out for you. This almost never happens. It's really not hard to find people in the city who want to rent apartments.

In Copenhagen most apartments require people to live there. "Bopælspligt", residency requirement. As the owner of an apartment you are required to make sure someone lives there at least 180 days a year. The best places to live in

You're proving my point here right? The trust and security of the Bitcoin blockchain does not have value to you, so in your mind we're completely wasting all that energy. The fact is that a lot of "useless" things cost a

Yes HN has an irrational hatred for everything blockchain which especially gets magnified if there is a lot of money involved. As for why.. this is interesting as on the surface you'd expect HN to be on the forefront of new technology

I disagree. Decentralization makes it possible to cut out the middle man, Sotheby is no longer needed to do art deals, you can buy directly via smart contract. Will some people buy via Sotheby's still because they provide value in cur

"All those things will never break among the common folk." Just like normal folk will never use TCP/IP, know HTML etc? Nobody needs to know that something runs on a blockchain or how NFTs work. Yes you need to know now but in

I think we're going to see more and more people "vote with their feet" by moving to places that suit them better instead of trying to change where they are. It is so much easier today than it has ever been. It should mean co

The question is: Did the NSA spy on Danish companies for political reasons or industrial espionage reasons? I think the former is to be expected while the latter is not. As an aside.. say the NSA finds out some great industrial espionage in

I wonder who Heliogen hired to do their PR. Must be a really good (or expensive) campaign. There is nothing new in high temperatures and the AI part is pure buzzwords.
