I hope so. If they aren’t then they would be better off finding work in some other part of the country.

I think you might be missing the point. Think of it this way. Ask yourself, is there a difference between a software consultant and a software freelancer? Everything else equal which person do you think gets paid more a consultant or a f

the term "programmer" is generally used to describe software jobs where you aren't expected to do much design or critical thinking or have in-depth knowledge of computer science or engineering concepts. A good analogy might b

You can go on sites like Zillow or PadMapper and see rental listings. $4,000 seems typical now days for a 1 bedroom or studio. If you really want to slum it or have roommates you can find situations for less but for someone who has grown

There is a whole industry of companies that exist to give mail forwarding from a US address to foreign countries. They are mostly services used to buy stuff off ebay from sellers who won't ship outside the US due to higher chances of

Devs pay lip service to decentralization while resisting decentralization that weakens their control. At least that is how Bitcoin Core has behaved.

Wouldn't surprise me if it was an organized (paid) troll campaign trying to stir up anti Coinbase sentiment. Small block fanatics have had it out for Coinbase ever since they published a blog post advocating for raising the block size

“Freelance” has very negative connotations I my book. It brings to mind sites like odesk or whatever it is called now where low quality companies look to find 99 cent an hour talent.

I don't understand how high avocado prices could cause Chipotle to loose money. Guacamole is an optional add on why wouldn't they just raise the price of the guacamole to reflect the market price of avocado or use avocado futures

Kraken is a total disaster. You can barley login and trade on it. The several times I've tried I've never been able to. Point being that the Tether price there is not to be trusted. Can you even move Tether between exchanges?

Based on transaction volume the low is going to be much higher than the low last time around. I'd guess under 2k but over 1k.

Whether or not something is issued by a state has nothing to do with it being currency. I would challenge you to find a reputable source that says otherwise.

If you aren't verifying the block chain you don't have to rely on a trusted third party. You ask a third party and then check with a couple other third parties to verify what the first gave you. Big difference.

You can accept an valid signed transaction with low risk even if it hasn't confirmed yet because in a blockchain w/o regular massive backlogs the chances that it doesn't confirm are very low. So for smaller every day transac
