I agree there is a lot of this in the space, but if you look past the laser eyes, there is some really awesome stuff happening in defi.

Sure - some problems being solved right now: What problems does DeFi solve? There are a few straightforward ones when looking at financial systems - Inefficiency - Banks and financial institutions spend billions on opex (ex. BoA spent $53 b

It certainly would, as currently USDT is used as collateral throughout the system, but I don't think Tether would just 'go down'. Regulators aren't stupid and the worst case imo is that there is a time period where peopl

We don't truly know the severity of it yet, but we do know that money has been moving over to other stablecoins such as USDC over the past year or so and so risk is slowly decreasing. There is a huge amount of innovation in the space

As much as I hate the 'FUD' label often given to anything negative in the crypto space, it is disappointing that even the BBC cannot use an honest title. Binance is not 'banned' as they say- this is misleading. I am in

You obviously haven't checked in on the Ethereum ecosystem recently and looked at all the innovation there...

Very interesting to know roughly how much energy one can create doing this! Being part of the current trend of people riding at home on Wahoo Kickrs/Zwift and other turbo trainers, I do feel like that energy could be put to use somehow

I see a lot of discussion about recycling and burying/burning, but I think more effort should be made to reduce usage of plastics and re-use where necessary. I have gone plastic-free this January and it has been far more challenging th

Ha! Science can only get you so far and there are areas where it falls on it's face, for example explaining consciousness and that is where Spirituality and philosophy need to step in.

Maybe not necessary with so many free tutorials on yt these days, but for those who want a full course in something specific like react, you can check out Wesbos courses - they are currently half price: https://reactforbeginners.

It would make sense to hold companies such as Tesla as a hedge against oil.

I am convinced that at a young age we experience things in a way very similar to a psychedelic state. I always thought babies are in more of a DMT-state (my experiences smoking NN-DMT gave me this belief) and I guess as they get older, they

I think if you are going to eat meat and dairy, then do it the right way, as you have. But, I would not underestimate the move towards more conscious eating such as veganism. Personally if I can reduce any unnecessary suffering through wha

Yes, you could say that providing those animals have a good life, there is an argument there. However, whilst the eggs from your own hens might be ethical, in reality, probably 95%+ of chickens are factory farmed and have pretty awful lives

I also wondered this: Us humans bred them over thousands of years so that they keep laying eggs throughout the year rather than just during the breeding season, to the point that they lay them every single day. The original ancestor - Red

The ideal scenario is to reward customers for being environmentally conscious as oppose to penalising those who aren't. eg. A 5p-off your shopping incentive for every re-used bag. However, sadly I don't think this would work as w

Very good point, really good to hear the new bags aren't weighing in at too much more than the old ones! Also worth noting that the heavier bags are better quality and so will last longer. Combine this with the fact that because bags a

I stumbled upon Paul Stamets on Joe Rogan's podcast, which made a nice introduction to the world of funghi- absolutely fascinating and exciting to think of what else we may discover in this field in the coming years! For anyone intere

This is a brilliant idea! I could see it being used with Nimiq- a project in development for a browser-based blockchain...This could provide more profitable mining. This is also the direction I wanted to see BAT to go in- getting rid of pay

Agreed! Trying to value Bitcoin is extremely difficult, as nothing comparable has ever preceded it, hence trying to predict future price action is extremely difficult. One thing is for sure- it's never going to disappear and all those

I found out in a pretty horrible way this year that I was a 'silent celiac' - symptomless gluten intolerance. I broke my leg whilst simply doing a hand-stand (spiral fracture of femur)! All the doctors were confused at how it happ

Also worth mentioning that other crypto-currencies do not require mining (proof-of-work). They instead use "proof of stake" or "Proof of burn" systems which would use less power. Things are still evolving very fast in th

Token Distribution might be a better way to phrase it. At least this is how Eos named their fund raising- it takes place over 341 days, launched a few days ago and has already raised over $600M...Crazy times! Anyone investing should be car

CONSUME LESS! I feel like that really is the key- A holistic approach is best- trying to be aware of the impact you have across the board. Eg. It's not much good being vegetarian if you're also drinking a few bottles of water from

Was about to write a similar response- I totally agree that the cuts have definitely had negative effects. After listening to friends and family who work as teachers, magistrates and in the emergency services, I feel that public services a

Agree- Jacque Fresco's vision is really inspiring and I think a lot of great ideas can be drawn from the Venus Project.
