I prefer react-css with react mostly because I can import styles and treat them like regular objects. I also find it much easier to do responsive styling by computing CSS values with js. Another reason for this approach is that I believe Re

My style is continually evolving, especially as I get more familiar with TDD/BDD. The biggest thing though is to do as much planning as possible before even writing a single line of code. For front end stuff this includes wireframes an

Doesnt the ETF also open the door to institutional funds that are normally restricted to specific assets? Seems to me that is the biggest advantage of a bitcoin ETF as it will open the gates to more capital for bitcoin investments.

Is it possible to deploy an MVP or at least gather signups before going too far? Ideas are a dime a dozen. Investors dont give a shit about your idea. What they want to see is that other people are willing to buy into your idea OR if you ar

I would go B2B because business are more likely to pay for things that save them time and money. Consumers generally dont like to spend money, which is why consumer services are typically free or cheap and usually generate revenue through a

As a buyer, it would be foolish to have a mortgage in such a deflationary currency.

Its easy to call it a bubble/scheme because most things usually are. The fundamental difference with bitcoin is that it is unlike anything the world has ever seen. Given the limited quantity and proven utility of it, many people believ

It depends on your price target. I personally think BTC is going to the tens of thousands in the next few years so I see no reason to sell now and even buying at $1k is still relatively cheap.

I think the days of independent mining are over. Used to be you could mine several hundred BTC/month with a nice multi GPU setup. If you held on to those BTC then it would have been very profitable. But as difficulty increases it requi

Its fairly simple to estimate future value of BTC. The supply is fixed - there will never be more than 21,000,000 BTC in circulation so the only other factor is how big you think Bitcoin will become relative to other currencies. For example

There are plenty of copy cat crypto currencies (+4 alliteration) already. But the question is, what value would a new currency provide over BTC? Mining difficulty is a feature of BTC in order to prevent all the coins from being mined before

Even though mining will continue for the indefinite future, the total amount of BTC that will ever be circulated is capped. And the rate at which new coins are mined will decrease dramatically in the next few years - to the point where they

Yes this is a drawback however: - There is nothing preventing the restaurant from making printed menus available to waiting guests. - If the interactive menu can only serve one person at a time and is occupied nearly all of the time then it

Now THIS is good feedback. I totally agree that how I've been selling the product up to this point is weak and (admittedly) I haven't pushed it as hard I should because I feel like I need to develop more of the product before I can show the

The holy grail of this kind of technology is the ability to interact and order directly from every table. That seems to be the approach T1Vision is taking. The problem with that (at this stage) is the huge initial investment required to mak

I've been sitting on this theory for a couple of years but finally got around to writing about it. The Instagram purchase makes sense from this perspective. I believe this is the ultimate goal for Facebook and I see no reason why they canno
