Hang out with the people you're already buddies with. Make it reciprocal, don't always be the one inviting the other, they should invite you half the time. If you foster an environment where you already have a collegiate environme

People need a way to make dollar denominated transactions on blockchains. The Fed doesn't provide a way to do this natively, so companies have stepped in to solve the problem in various creative and fraught ways.

The smart contracts are still ironbound to whatever they end up compiling to. It's the pesky humans who are ruining things. It can be easily argued that any cryptocurrency involving human intervention is vulnerable to ... human interve

What makes central bank currencies special is that institutions like the Fed can "mint" or "burn" dollars whenever they please to maintain the "peg". In reality they're targeting a 2% floating rate of infl

It seems you're implying everyone who disagrees with you is trying to exploit young people. It's the same rhetoric as the politicians who drafted the bill. We need to have open minds in civil society, some humility to anticipate d

I was hoping to see better HTML rendering. Using a single canvas to render web apps was my one turn off. Flutter is the right choice for many apps, but not for apps primarily accessed over the Web.

Everytime I wonder if we're doomed I just remember we were locked in mortal combat with ourselves only 140 years ago. Sociopolitical relations seem absolutely rosy in comparison! America has been through a lot (to put it mildly), this
