The discussion here reminds me so much of early C# days. It was being touted as open source and cross platform back then, and Microsoft even hired a top GNOME developer to port it to Linux and GNOME was going to be rewritten in C#. It was

My friend, you are stating falsehoods, mixing metaphors, and jumbling up concepts in ways that I can't begin to untangle. But clearly you know more than the big investors getting into Bitcoin now and the finance firms offering Bitcoin

Pegged to the US Dollar, which is not stable, but maybe the least volatile Fiat currency in the world, so it's an upgrade for most people. I just worry about the nature of these pegged crypto currencies. Are they really safe?

I get that the US Dollar is a more stable currency than many, if not all, others. I don't understand why, if you're getting into cryptocurrency to avoid inflation, you would chose one based on any fiat currency. Invest in one th

How is Bitcoin a negative sum game? Any and every currency or asset has costs associated with buying, selling, and securing it, Bitcoin included (paying the miners is one of those costs).

It's wild that we can't differentiate lust and love, committed relationship and meaningless sex. That's the main thing I get from the confusion in the article and the confusion in the comments here about what even defines po

I generally agree with what you are saying, but you need to add "and not fighting" to "long term committed parents who are always there." Not fighting is so important that sometimes the parents need to split up so they c

I lived in and have returned to visit former Yugoslavian countries over the past 25 years and until just now had not come across these spomeniks. I'm glad I was able to learn the true stories about some of them at the same time. Over

If you are able to perfectly meet demand why would anyone pay more than your price? What service or improvement are the arbitragers providing above and beyond what you are providing that incentivizes people to pay more than your price?

Correct, this is the problem. See my other comment here about the difficulty of just getting on a repeater. If you get past that initial obstacle and get on a repeater, just to find that it's not interesting, you don't stay long

I'm sorry but you are just wrong. Radio is about communicating, and if the only people to communicate with are boring, then what can you really do? And ham radio has way less reach than the Internet, and requires a license, so the po
