I'm enthusiastic about block chain. Is it in a bubble? Yes, but so is virtually every speculative asset... Blockchain legitimately has potential to solve major social problems equitably, for example, online representative voting with

After I graduated from College in 2020, I humbled myself and got a job at Ralphs so that I could make rent payments. I worked at one across from a major park in Los Angeles so I just happened to get to know a lot of homeless people. I was

Does anyone actually know anyone who drinks more than 2 drinks every day? The only people I knew like that were homeless, and I was more concerned about other issues with them, than the drinking (which was more of a symptom than a cause, i

The US let the Russians break themselves fighting the Eastern front while they invaded north Africa. The North African front was basically secure while Stalingrad was happening, and if the US applied more pressure to Germany in this period

One prominent one is that we use fear to control other countries instead of love. We spend so much human talent on defense, and sure we got a bunch of great technologies, but who's to say that we wouldn't have got them through som

I think Sartre nailed it. Its about radical acceptance of every single decision one has made. No one can take away my choices. Even if I was unfairly imprisoned for life, if my soul couldn't be extinguished I would consider it a wort

I'm not a fan of the criticism of people's disposition towards corporate work in this piece (ie. Not wanting to work for a company). You know what form of ease I have given up? The one where I am trapped in a cage, working on som

Maybe broken instead of rigged? Or as a collective, we don't know the game theoretic best move to get out. It all comes down to education at the end of the day, that's why we use hackernews.

There's no way around the fact that we simply have to reduce our activity and convert to solar power? Color me surprised. I'm sure that humanity will pull through the energy and emissions crisis, but we are really making this mor

Word of mouth is king. I've only seen 2 ads in the last year that were even relevant, and only 1 of 2 of them turned into a sales conversion. For the other product, I went to a competitor.

This is less of a problem with WFH and more of a problem with regulation, IMO.

I think most people just don't want to be under someone's control. At least, that is the case for me. Simple as. People not returning to their wage cages is a non problem. Spend less on childcare, spend less on food, commute l

Crypto is ultimately going to prove to be a more efficient means of value exchange, and easier for developers to utilize that the current financial system. That alone is enough to make me feel sure of my investments. However, there are man

Very much this. It takes vision to predict the future. The people who have it are too busy making things to be making propaganda on Hackernews.

I think permissionless-ness is something developers and businesses will come to value greatly. Only certain technologies on the blockchain help with privacy, and most debatable make it easier to track your activity, if the user doesn'

If the protocol is worth anything, the Elite can't control the economy as well. Then what point is there to being elite, if you cant use your 'superior' intellect to direct global trade?

We can go as long as people have faith. As much as we want to view the world (economy) as a financial machine, its really runs on the belief that people have for the system. I for one, do not have faith in Nation money. I believe in crypto

You say all this, but you would agree; We really can't be telling private companies or individuals what to and what not to do with their technologies, right? 1) How do we enforce that at smaller scales? 2) How would we prevent our re
