I guess it's a hobby right now but I hope it's not eventually. Can i just say that I wish there was some kind of repository of information for drawing charts. And there are so many different kinds of financial charts that's i

They very nearly did until Trump came into power. Remember all the articles talking about the troubles twitter was having and everyone predicting the end. And then the campaign happened. Now everyone has twitter just to see what he'll

That's a really interesting project. Are there any plans to incorporate more human readable addresses? I can see how this could be misused by forking a financial institution website and imperceptibly change one letter.

I wish there was more data on the subject of alternatives to capitalism to make comparisons. Really it's most likely any conclusion is in vain with only half of the picture. The best we have is china and the soviet union and those are

I think the fairest way is to have a serious conversation with him and offer him a tiny stake based on his contribution which should involve contributions planning the startup. But with an option to buy back his stake after a few years. Tha

I've made desktop apps with electron and you can definitely make a decent one but it isn't going to be as fast. If it's a simple program it's not bad but if you're going to do any complicated computation you'll

Same here. I bought a cheap 4gb laptop and put a light linux on it just for coding away from home. All electron apps suck the life away while sublime runs like a dream.

Okay lets do that. How do they enforce it? Many of the biggest exchanges are not in the US. There are some exchanges that are decentralized themselves and can't be taken down easily. Many countries are embracing cryptocurrencies like G

Okay lets just say bitcoin is a scam. What do we do about it? What can we do about it? Do we shut down the open source project? Do we make the algorithms illegal and have a repeat of the fight of whether or not mathematics and programming i

The single thing that has had the largest impact for me has been simply making a list of things I need to do the next day on the night before. In the morning, often the hardest thing to do is just to get going. Having a ready made list take

I use Blender's built in video editor. It's got some rough edges but you get a full creative suite with it including compositing and vfx. Particles, filters, camera tracking, animate the video positions for any swipes or transitio

In my experience it doesn't matter what you use to make an app with as long as it fits the use case. I've seen great web apps and horrible ones. I've also seen great native apps and ones with horrible experiences equally. It&

My perception is probably warped by the fact that I used pocket before I moved to firefox. So after I downloaded firefox after years on chrome, it was a very pleasant surprise to see pocket already there. And to me it was an added value. Bu

I agree wholeheartedly with everything except for pocket. I've never had a service like that become so integrated in my life so fast. I don't even use bookmarks anymore, it's just easier to pool it all together and tag it rel

Not sure if you're joking or if you genuinely don't know how bitcoin works.

I believe the prices are linked because you still have to cash out into Bitcoin first before anything else. Sometimes you can in ethereum but not always. If we can start buying with. Altcoins are worth Bitcoin. So it makes sense they follow

The problem in my mind with the world of social media is that we can filter our content until we've created a bubble around ourselves and an echo chamber with only those who think like we do. It's important to be able to see thin

I haven't tried them yet but I've heard good things about javafx and sciter. Sciter especially looks like a nice replacement for electron.
