I like whatsapp a lot, personally. The stickers aren't as good as Telegram, though.

Would you agree that 2020-2021 was a more interesting period of time than 2018-2019?

I don't know your background, but be careful ramping up long distance running too soon. Especially if you're running on concrete. It feels good till it doesn't lol

I assume it's for liability reasons in case they start a lawsuit.

When I owned a car in SF, I always put a visible sign that said 'please don't break in' on it. One of the reasons I decided to sell that car was the daily anxiety of it getting broken into.

I'm looking into Foam, thanks for putting a name to the process.

How do you handle multi-line thoughts? Can your system do hyperlinking and filtering by one or more tags?

Tangentially related. I have fairly unorganized folder with a ton of markdown journal entries, notes, observations, shopping lists, etc. I would like to go through organizing, archiving, and editing these entries. Has anyone done something

I don't blog, but writing in general has helped me immensely. A lot of people think writing is grammar and spelling. Try writing to evoke a reaction from other people, e.g., strangers, loved ones, friends. For example, try to write s

The moment I start seeing the Greek symbols my brain turns off. But I’m super interested in game theory and this concept. Than someone dumb this paper down for people like me?

One thing I like about crypto is you can simulate economics experiments with funny money online. Ponzi Scheme? There are plenty of these going on. Want to investigate Harberger's triangle/deadweight tax loss? Create a small game.

I’m confused by this, how are you supposed to communicate a precise agenda in a hashtag? The movement has to do with systemic racism in America. Think of BLM like a “hook” in writing. Isn’t it interesting that a statement of an obvious fact

Is this the same Softbank, of WeWork fame? If so, this will be fun to watch!

Not necessarily IMO. Wealth is a function of assets, liabilities, income, and other factors. There are plenty of people with high salaries who I wouldn’t consider wealthy by any stretch.

I never thought of it that way. I might start collecting these shitcoins for their artistic merit.

Not surprised, it's like paid advertising. Seems like an easy way to get some eyeballs on your new product/service. I hope HN doesn't go the way of reddit, though. I know it's inevitable once there's enough money in

I think it makes sense to have people available for regular hours, just so that if I ask someone a question I can expect a response today-ish. But, I agree that a lot of meetings should be emails, teambuilding events are usually poorly done

I agree with your premise and doubt that adding NFTs into the mix will do anything to prevent counterfeits. I don’t buy fancy handbags, but I have read that counterfeits are often made of higher quality material than luxury brands. So, the

Don't forget parking! I don't own a car and I agree 100%. I live in a city, though, so it's pretty easy for me to get groceries, go out, stay fit, etc. I guess my experience of suburbia is the sprawl associated with florida,

That sounds fantastic. I think we have very different ideas of what suburban means, though. In that suburban neighborhood, where do people work? Is everyone remote, except for the service workers at the restaurants, bars, grocery stores, et

As a single man, I would personally be miserable if I lived in the suburbs without a car. Maybe we have very different ideas of what suburban means, but I have a few questions: How are they meeting new people? I've never seen a suburb

Anecdotally, clubhouse rooms were higher quality before they allowed Android users into the platform. Not saying that there's something inherently wrong with android users, there's just a higher noise to signal ratio now.

As much as I like the idea of webcomponents and graph databases, I'm glad I left a job that was shifting towards using them. As cool as they are, they are a bit too risky to devote serious career time. I really hope webcomponents becom

Blockies (sha-256 avatars) worked for me as a quick sanity check to make sure I'm sending to/from the correct wallet. You're dead on, I would remember them as "mostly purple." Never had an issue. I usually check the

My first thought before reading the article was "speculative cryptocurrencies." She takes it a step further by using astrology to predict crypto markets. Amazing.

It's so inspiring what can be done with just the HTML5 canvas and (a lot of) time. That is one creative dude.

True, but in many ways I am more afraid of living in a shelter than on the street, or more realistically, in my car. In your car at least you have some sense of ownership, safety, and personal space. In a shelter you are potentially surroun

Sure, quantum computing may break BTC encryption. Accepting that premise, it will also break every other secure form of encryption we currently have. In that scenario, there are much, much more important things to worry about than your litt
