Because the developer screwed up in the same code they were being flippant about.

In case you’re wondering why you’re wrong; you could have passed the group to someone else, you could have started a discussion of where to move the group, you could have done any number of things rather than just killing the group because

The group wasn’t worth paying $15 one time to save? You realize this story makes you sound bad, not Meetup?

Number of cars on the road is irrelevant to the issue at hand. The issue is what should Mazda focus on; its dominance of new car sales that is the relevant issue. And that’s where ICE vehicles have about 10 years or less until they are no l

The ICE has about 10 years of dominance left. Maybe less. EVs aren’t coming, they are here. And they’re just getting better and cheaper.

BitCoin is not useful as a payment method; it's too slow and wasteful (the hardware and energy requirements are absurd) and the transaction fees are too high. BitCoin is not useful as a store of value; the price is incredibly unstable

No because that would involve people buying Tether. Not Tether being printed.

The time for doctors is over! I went to one doctor who misdiagnosed my condition. He charged a lot of money for the visit too! Nobody needs doctors based on my experience!

They're solvent in that scenario, sure, because they committed fraud. That's the great thing about fraud, getting rich off of it.

by ebbv 9y ago
Because they're not claiming "We can maybe somehow come up with the money that the Tethers represent in the future." they're saying they have the money right now. And again, you're missing the point that it doesn&

Issuing USDT when there's no USD backing it up is an issue when you claim that it is backed 1:1. That is called fraud.

Unless they get so big they affect the economy as a whole.

You're skipping a key bit here; billions of Tethers magically appeared on the market in the last month and were used to buy BTC in suspiciously regular fashion, in 100 million USDT amounts, and with no clear evidence that it was actual

You have to enjoy the process of whatever it is you're doing. If your enjoyment relies totally on goals, that's how you end up in the situation Schopenhauer believed we are trapped in. Goals are good but you have to enjoy the jour

No, it is never fair to react to a peer reviewed scientific study with off hand skepticism.

This is not really a great idea. It's just adding more brittleness to your system. Leave DNS to people with distributed DNS networks and redundancy. I mean obviously you can do it if you want to, I'm not stopping you, but to me it

Aye carumba the comments on this article are a cesspool. If you don’t think the way Trump and Kim Jong Un have been interacting is a reason for concern I don’t even know what to say to you. And the point of this isn’t to make people panic,

Yep code reviews are great. Similarly; learn new frameworks and languages. As you learn things that are unfamiliar to you, you will start to understand why they were designed (or evolved) that way. You can then decide whether you agree with

This is the same argument people use every time, and that Tesla uses. The general public does not know that. It's an irresponsible name for the system and they know it.

by ebbv 9y ago
Agreed. I am a big fan of Tesla and I used to make excuses for them on this but I think it’s b.s. they didn’t rename it after the incident where the guy died. Cool marketing names do not outweigh being totally honest and up front. If I made

The guy I'm replying to was saying that crypto coins enables someone who invents a protocol to get paid, my dude. It's not an assumption on my part, I was replying to what he said.

by ebbv 9y ago
Maybe I'm dumb but I don't follow. If I invent a new messenger protocol, how does a cryptocurrency enable me to make money on that protocol better than any other method? Just because I make an ICO for my new protocol? Seems like a

It is pretty normal in some parts. Not everywhere. But in the Midwest it’s very common for people to live out in the suburbs and have a long freeway drive in to work. I went 45 minutes each way for years.
