I bought this Global Classic Flexible Boning Knife a few years ago, this one knife changed my whole game. I like to buy Chicken thighs, take the center bone out, keep the bones for some amazing stock and render the skin into schmaltz. It&

I'm going to be honest, since discovering Web3, i've been super happy. There's so much potential to mine I just haven't been able to stop thinking about it. The vast landscape of opportunity makes me so happy to wake u

Crypto (and more so Solona) has an extreme trade deficit, it's importing way more capital then it's currently exporting (the primary export today is blockspace, I think as DAO's start running SASS services, that will increase

Sure, thought that was implied. WETH on Solona is not the same thing obviously.

The value of WETH going to zero could cause a near system wide collapse. It is being used as collateral for a staggering number of loans. Bridges in the colloquial way of saying it, are too big to fail. I wonder if network insiders had be

The more I explore the space, the more it's becoming clear to me that the origional vision of crypto probably isn't going to happen. But that the potential is even greater than the origional vision. Any time I've tried to d

USDC has a blacklist feature too. I don't think funds are reversed though, just frozen (my rough understanding)

This was the path Mt Gox went after they were hacked. Didn't work out so well for them in the end.

The police report is probably due to their insurance, but it is odd that they would need individual police reports for each account.

Something not talked about often, but I wonder if basic income might lower the "applicability" of what people spend their time on. I know if money were not an issue I'd spend my time working on projects that sound fun, but m

The big guys, who know what they're doing use PHP because it makes devops stupid simple. Throw it on the server, its ready. That's always been PHP's killer feature.

I'm not sure I buy the idea of "people just don't want servers in their homes". I think the people who have figured out how to do it, have captured the value. Some are hesitant to buy into that captured ecosystem. Many

Even wose, many blockchain nodes are running on AWS. Fortunately we know the problem exists.. and there are solutions people are working on to resolve it (for example https://akash.network/ ) The good part is that this infr

For me, the problem of Centralization was the gate keeping. It seems often when an API is used to migrate to a new system the API is turned off. Thats if there was an API at all. If the centralized service is an easily replaceable commodit

I'm a web3 enthusiast, but I would agree here. Crypto makes most governments jobs easier, not harder regardless if they are hostile or not.

He throws around the phrase "Other Blockchains" pretty casually, but then only focuses on Eth. Many of the problems in Ethereum are solved in Avalanche in my opinion. That's why I've heavily invested in it. Avalanche

I guess we'll find out. It's increasingly likely the merge will happen his year. When ETH moves to PoS, mines will likely move to other currencies, or sell their hardware, that said the return for alternative crypto's stil

I too would rather see cards going to people working on protein folding AI and similar.... but I must admit your use cases are likely the more dominant ones.

For some reason, only secondary markets follow the law of supply and demand. On the primary market, price is fixed so you just get shortages.

One of the neat things about the way they've done it, is you can use a bitcoin wallet to connect: https://twitter.com/Bumi/status/1476957006653276170

Just checked it out, my pub key is f0bed2e11260f0f77f781db928f40a34c18713fda1918d3be996f91d0776e985 it's not obvious to me though how you find people to follow.

the eth guys have solved this with ENS, you could add your public key address in your ens record if this ever becomes a thing. Then you just tell people to add me <myname>.eth

Being decentralized can't be the only reason (unless you're a part of a group actively being wiped from a centralized platform). You need to do something better that makes people go "oh, this is neat". I had never heard

I bought an NFT last night, I thought it looked cool. I have no regrets on giving an artist some money. It's also pretty cool that if I sell it, the artist gets some more money, and if that person sells it, the artist gets some more

It's a pretty simple question. It's control. As the owner of an asset, I have control over how I use it. I own a house, I can control what I do to it (within the limits of the outside laws). I own a source repository, I can co

NFT's aren't about artificial scarcity, they give owners rights. Being able to control a digital asset is important. Take the ENS (it's like a domian service). Having exclusive control over a domain is not scarcity, it&#x2

When I watched the president of the United States get kicked off every popular social media platform it clicked for me. I never voted for the guy, I never liked the guy. But he was still the president, and it didn't matter. The tech
