My point exactly. I don't think politics has any place in this discussion. The request was for good book recommendations for everyone , not good book recommendations for republicans, christians, feminists etc

I do not think it matters whether a book is written by a man or woman, if the discussion is about worthwhile books to read. The bible is not just any other book though, and I understand why you'd have political, moral or religious idea

Have you considered the difference between "hide emotions" and "repress emotions"; or on the flip-side.. "show emotions" and "accept emotions". Personally, the "show emotions" should always

Thinking is a form of feeling. The difference is that feeling, comes from a lower level part of the brain, the same one responsible for other "automatic" processes like heartbeat and breathing. Feeling is more superior, as it can

So someone enticing you to BUY "sugar water" is not financial advice, but being enticed to buy fake internet money somehow is? How exactly did you reach that conclusion?

My guess (because i cannot mind-read all NFT buyers), is its mostly speculation[1] 1. https://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/speculation.asp

Am not sure how you came to that conclusion of dishonesty in others. Did anyone ever claim that the only reason they were selling you crypto was because they love you, and wish the absolute best for you, and have nothing to gain at all from

Short answer: passwords The very same way your online bank account facilitates "proof of ownership" of that said bank account.

You seem to have a very flawed, fundamental misunderstanding of either the term opaque, or what a public ledger is. There is nothing opaque about bitcoin transactions. They are all (every single one of them) open to the public. They are mor

You do realize there are almost 100 000 coins out there. How many of those have you actually researched about and come to the conclusion that they lacked "real world utility". Does a casino provide "real world utility"?

> proof of ownership, Ask for a reciept. An NFT is not selling "proof of ownership", its selling you a product > transfer of ownership, The so called "gullible buyers" would not be buyers without this process occur

> NFT literally can't facilitate anything by itself, without adding some centralized DB to it What exactly do you want an NFT to facilitate? And are you raving mad at the people who make the NFTs, the people who buy them or both?

I honestly don't think anyone ever bought an NFT because "NFT facilitates decentralized proof of ownership".

They do not actually define profit. They do mention "social profit", which I guess is what you are up against?

What is your definition of profit?

I believe you still have to do some "cross-referencing, and coupling HTML elements to CSS classes" when using tailwind. The naming and creation of those classes is what the framework provides.

I believe this confusion arises between the valid definition of the act of "engineering" with another equally valid definition of the profession of engineering, which like most professions, require some sort of formal degree.

Why is it exploitative for a 33yo male to date an 18yo female? Are they not both adults? And who is doing the exploiting? What about a 70yo male and a 33yo female? Still exploitative?
