Having less means using more. In farmers cuisines you use every part of the product. Potatoes peals soup or using seeds for spicing. There's even stuff you can do with banana peals! But in rich peoples cuisines you use the part of the

What a fantastic idea! I always keep on looking for new interesting subreddits. This tool is the best I saw for this task so far.

That's "The amazons", in plural.

"the amazon": thought of the rainforest/river (only) "amazon": thought of as either the rainforest/river or the company. I really dunno what does the world population think of that though (no one knows really).

Nowadays? Definitely. People don't go to eat out "just not to be hungry", they go for the experience.

What's the criterion to be included in this list? They compare visiting the library to live music, theater, casinos, theme parks or zoos. But all of the other activities demand payment per visit, while going to a library is free, so it

You can find the agreement here: https://www.icann.org/resources/agreement/amazon-2019-12-19-... I would like to actually see the discussions leading to this agreement. The ideal version of ICANN is to be the &quo

I'm also against government supervision, but there's a different between supervision/regulation (checking that legal activies are indeed being conducted in a legal way), and between make some activities illegal, such as theft

Fair point, thought what you described can be achieved in many means beside facial recognition.

I find it quite ironic that search engines were working better for me 10 years ago than they do now.

by neiman 7y ago
For IM there are too many alternatives to count. For search there are a few, DDG is the best known imo, however, none of them is as good as Google's search engine, especially when it comes to Hebrew (my mother tongue). As for Facebook

We run a blog on top of IPFS, and we use ENS (Ethereum Name Service) to keep it always updates. Basically you can access it if you use Opera browser or some browser extension. If not there are some gateways, like this: blog.almonit.eth.link

I agree. Besides, there's a difference between "keeping up with development of technology" and between "keeping up in using it for dubious goals".

I didn't meant the DAO to be an actor outside the legal system. The difficulty of answering your remark is that different legal systems probably have different point of views about it. According to what I was told where I live, I'

I disagree. There are nowadays "real" projects using a DAO, I'm involved in one of them. Are those projects not real?

by neiman 7y ago
You're right, I should have mentioned the advantages to begin with. It's easier, cheaper and faster to setup a DAO than an international foundation, especially regarding registration, opening bank accounts and international member

I assume it may not be a popular opinion here, but it would be so much easier if projects like Rust could have a DAO (decentralized autonomous organization) instead of a foundation, and a blockchain account managed by this DAO instead of a

The scientific paper industry is now in a similar state to where the music, tv and film industry were 10-15 years ago. People pirate what they offer not because of being cheap, but because their prices are highly exaggerated and their servi

> SF is rarely character-led and it may be optimistic to expect depth or nuance from it. I really don't think it's true anymore, see all Hugo award SF nominees and winners from the past few years. They are all character-led.

I agree with all you said, but I may put it in the past tense. I only started visiting Worldcon in the few years, but from what I see, there is huge awareness for it there, and these phenomenons do not exist there nowadays. They probably ex
