That and there's almost never any new discussion. 90% of the posts degenerate into "how do I get rich off of this?" or "it's a bubble" comments.

I currently have around 3k unread emails in the gmail box. Granted, most of them are highly unnecessary or don't need a reply. It doesn't bother me one bit. If I need to find a particular message, I'll search for it. If somet

I've been wondering what the implications of a fully documented life on the internet will bring in the next 30-50 years. Presumably, these kids have had and will have their entire lives documented on the internet (and most likely by a

The main difference between this and a traditional AMA is that the AMA host agrees to answer questions beforehand. There is no such guarantee in this product - how do you plan on combating questions that just sit idle? If questions just sit

I think it comes down to personal preferences. I love listening to entire albums. I don't have favorite songs, I have favorite artists. If I like the artist, I listen to an entire album by them. I have never once in my life paid for a

Is anyone concerned enough with their facebook profile security to want to be verified on this level? why not a normal 2fa? it seems like there is a hidden agenda behind collecting and analyzing users facial characteristics.

Ironically, the news works in the same way as BTC prices. There doesn't have to be any intrinsic value as long as people are talking about it. The tulip mania comparison is lazy. It's just a way for pass of FUD as a "scholars

Does anyone know of a website that will alert you on deals for a particular product? I.e - if I am looking for sales on a laptop, a site where I can punch in the product number/name and get an alert when a low price is reached?

Meh, these threats exist in the real world as well. You can't silence everybody who might possibly be a threat at some point. Those who actually make the threats should be dealt with, but last time I checked it's "innocent un

I agree with you. The only thing that censorship brings in this particular case is a safe space for advertisers. I see exactly 0 harm in sharing a platform with people with alternate views than me. If you don't like the way a social pl

Not too mention the personal sacrifices they have to make to maintain a career (long hours, odd schedules, being on call, the stress of having someones life in your hands, etc). Not to mention one mistake could cost you your entire career a

is that different than cash - especially surrounding illegally obtained cash? I'm not saying it's not a risk - I just don't see it as inherently more risky than currently viable currencies.

I don't understand the comment either. It's not like terrorist groups are currently un-funded. Cash is still king around illegal activities of all kinds. Why is using bitcoin for illegal activity any different than untraceable cas

Would an industry-approved certification be a viable replacement for on the spot technical interviews? Somebody feel free to change my view - but I don't see why there can't be a standardized certification (could be broken up into

The only interesting thing I found was this: 'Serving sizes are regulated by the Food and Drug Administration, and can change if a cereal’s density changes. It appears that at some point in the last 10 or 15 years, General Mills tweake

Yeah I'm pretty disappointing in the quality of this article, especially considering its coming from the Economist. The summary is a coin flip in essence. It did, however, get me to think about this question: Is there a point where eno

As someone who practices IF semi-strictly, is there any benefit to taking this while maintaining a low level of carb intake? Or is it's ideal use case for someone who wants to get carb intake levels higher?

Interesting how fast Blue Apron fell out of favor. I'm curious what, if anything, will turn it around. Is boxed-shipped-meals a fad that is over with or is there still room for innovation?

and? Every time a bitcoin article is posted, this is among the top comments. I get it - economic bubbles are bad. Can we get some deeper critical thinking, rather than just parroting the most popular FUD position? If this makes Bitcoin the

While the tips in this article are pretty generic, I will say that working artist are among the hardest working group of people I've ever known. It takes extreme dedication and an iron will to keep up a full time artistic practice. If

Best advice I can give to people who "don't get art" is to go to a museum and get lost for a while. Second best advice I can give is to not try to "figure art out". Don't try to assign deep meaning to a piece t

I've enjoyed Gemini low fees, easy set up, has good member service (in my experience) only real cons is that it only allows you to trade btc and eth, no ltc or other alt coins.

I agree with the first part of your statement. The second part - it's not a zero-sum game. Why can't both be "real" artists?

by nxsynonym 9y ago
Correct - modern art is an art movement during a specific time period. Contemporary art is simply "made by living artists, now" - and will inevitably be re-name with some -ism to help classify the common themes and styles.

This is my feeling on it too. Nobody can predict what is going to happen with BTC or the whole cryptocurrency eco-system in general. There's still potential for the technology to take off and gain widespread adoption, just as there&#x2

I currently use Venmo and Cash (by Square). I prefer Cash for it's simplicity and lack of social-media style alerts and notifications. The only reason I use Venmo is because it is popular (at least with my peers/friends). I like t

Apart from the normal Facebook detractors, this is big part of why I deactivated my account. 95% of content on facebook is now in video format. Aside from the reasons you mentioned, it's also a huge drain on battery and slows the respo
