This is fun! What is the biggest size jump in this database by percentage growth between one emoji and the next?

What is it you want out of using Linux as your phone? I don't understand.

Not sure what you're getting at. You said zero covid was never a goal anywhere. And the above poster showed you were wrong.

Monetization models are interesting. In most amateur's case it seems to start out as "for fun" and then flip to "for money". Instead it's simply a gradient of incentives, whether acknowledged or not. As cryptoc

Well said, most interesting thing in this thread. "Show HN" when you get there!

Agreed! Similarly, the best outcome for the ConstitutionDAO was likely for them to bid but not win. Can you imagine the complexity of actually owning it. High odds it would have ended up intentionally destroyed somehow.

Indeed, it's all about incentives. He said during the keynote that his goal is to get the word out and change locks for the better. So far he's seen more incentive to get views than making money on the channel. This will not alway

Care to explain? The idea of a bunch of people pooling their money to buy an NBA team seems pretty practical to me. Is it the media/popularity aspect that makes you think of the end of a bubble? ie if they were buying something more mu

Damn this post is solid. Even if I don't really get it, I can tell you do. My takeaway is that what makes DAO LLC unique is that it allows for "algorithmic management". I'm familiar with LLC management, where there are o

I would love to see the same content / angle of this article re-written. I think it could be condensed to a few paragraphs perhaps, for those who already understand Proof of Work. I found myself getting stuck in the analogies (infinite

You seem to have mapped out pretty clear logic here. What's important to you about refuting this as a possibility?

I'm pro-cryptocurrencies, but I also don't really get what's so amazing about DAOs. Are there any references or explanations from people who love them? Here's a piece by Vitalik I found compelling: https://vit

Sounds like you know what you're talking about. What do you think of this idea of a DAO from a legal perspective? Are there any DAO models in particular you find attractive?

If it's not a security, what is it? A lottery ticket? I've ready your subsequent posts in this thread, I'm curious what you're trying to get at here.

Ya agreed, understand it's not your title. Seems like NPR is grouping it under "those krazy krypto kids" so it's all the same.

by reginold 5y ago
Since the title doesn't make this clear -- this is not ConstitutionDAO. It's a new DAO called Krause House.

It's totally fine if they don't those are just examples. And "you decide" was the wrong term. Your curiosity itself takes the wheel, you're along for the ride really. Instead of bitcoin maybe your curiosity will cho

Yeah I advocate for others less than myself. I believe everyone should someday have an open source smartphone option. Pinephone is on the right path, but not there yet. Go PinePhone!

I'm a causal user looking for a Linux phone. I want a non-proprietary OS and I want to support open source. I'm willing to give up a lot to get that. But Pinephone isn't quite there yet. I know it will be someday!

by reginold 5y ago
Agree with the other respondents here. I love the PinePhone project and want them to succeed long term. That said, recommending it to causal users as a daily driver before it's ready causes more harm than good.

Thanks! I had not realized bitcoinmagazine could be a good source. I had grouped it in with other crypto media junk like cointelgraph.
