I don't think that line of reasoning has worked our particularly well for shelter.

Yeah this is the downstream effect I had in mind. You could say we'd increase supply to meet the demand but that hasn't really worked out with housing for example

Does UBI really solve the problem, wouldn’t it just make everything more expensive?

I dont think the author is really proposing a solution. They're just proposing that anxiety and ambition are orthogonal

Disclaimer: I used to work at robinhood The consolidated bid and the ask across all exchanges make up what's called the NBBO and every one (market makers, exchanges, etc) are required to give you a price equal to or better than the NBB

That's fair but calling it a fee is disingenuous, especially considering your contrived scenario of buying and then immediately selling

To avoid delays with traditional money rails. Most usage is for DeFi (you’d prbly call it gambling) but I also know people who use it for remittances. Believe it or not, sending stablecoins internationally and off ramping at a foreign bank

There are other reasons why having stablecoins is useful. Regular money can’t be transferred digitally. If you want to send money to someone, both your bank and their bank need to speak the same protocol. This isn’t an issue usually but try

Please stop spreading misinformation. There are two prices, the bid price (how much someone is willing to pay) and an ask price (how much someone is willing to sell). When you submit a market order, you usually get a price close to the bid

Huge fan of safety razors. At least for me, razors with multiple blades would tug on my hair too much and cause ingrown hairs often (I think those two are casual) Plus, nothing wakes you up in morning like potentially cutting yourself

I don’t think solved is the right word. You can build apps using ionic/electron but native apps are objectively better

I feel like, as with a lot of tools, graphql is really useful if you’re at the scale of having 1000s of different object types. If you’re only dealing with a handful of resources, a simple rest api is way less headache.

Not all APIs are about reading and writing data though. You might want an api to create a db entry but also kick off an async task.

Not all clients are written in js (android, iOS). For mobile apps, you’re better off having most logic exist on the backend

There's a subjective balance to be struck between implicitness and explicitness. The example DHH gives are basically default parameters, which is a pretty reasonable amount of implicitness for me. On the other end of the spectrum are t

I think that enjoying working in a framework/library is very much a function of how familiar one is with the framework/library. It might be worth giving React that 3rd try.
