Well, this is how progress happens. Someone complains about a whole industry in broad brushstrokes, someone else invalidates the complaint with a counter example, and we move forward with the better option.

I've traded Algorand and never touched BTC or Tether. Your argument is like screaming that the Internet is full of porn and fake news and that any use of the internet (e.g. buying doilies on Etsy) is participating in that economy . Al

I don’t think creating detailed estimates is a waste of time. Planning brings clarity to engineering. However, PMs weaponize estimates against the engineers and that ruins the whole exercise. Also, teams should use a betting market with rea
