You're buying an entry on the blockchain and the scarcity of that is real. Except that unlike the original object, or even a replica, "an entry on the blockchain" has -- no intrinsic value whatsoever. It's basically

It was a rant, sure. But I found it perfectly straightforward, and it was pretty clear at the very top what the main concern was, actually.

Russian Defence Minister Shoygu has said that an American PMC is preparing a provocation using chemical components in Donbas. According to him, unknown chemicals were delivered to Avdiivka and Krasnyy Lyman. Chemical-based WMDs, no less.

It isn't the hours. It's the pettiness, the high-level dishonesty, and unending cognitive dissonance.

In reality, it looks as though RadioShack is planning to launch its own Radio token and will start by focusing on swaps, which is basically a service to exchange cryptocurrencies and tokens. Documents available on the RadioShack website de

Tesla is at fault for not considering how real humans will use the product. I think they know perfectly well, on some level. As they are of the fact that large portion of their drivers will be perfect dumbasses. But they're invested

Can't tell if this is facetious or not. So I guess it must be.

Not to clutter my mind with feel-good buzzwords and other meritocratic poppycock.

Yeah it's why I intentionally take long breaks now and then (f your recruiter and his complaint about "work gaps") just to learn how to be human and creative again.

Is this how it's like at all large companies? Yup, for a large portion of them. What should I do? Quit. And pat yourself on the back for finally getting a chance to learn, up-close and first-hand, what this industry is actually lik

This doesn't look right. A 0.12 percent response rate strongly suggests that they're basically spamming these places, without checking for even approximate skill fit or experience level. The ghosting rate is sadly typical, though.

This fix for this is very simple: Make Apple execs eat that very same cafeteria food. Day in, day out. For a year.

I think some people are underestimating their reaction time. Agreed; the human brain has special chemicals which significantly amplify our processing capabilities during moments of acute danger. I was once going up freeway, in the dead o

Most humans unfortunately do not have the experience of knowing what to do at the right time; What's worrying isn't that the autopilot didn't "know what to do"; but that it didn't detect the oncoming parked c

How does it end up in the main Facebook feed, almost working? Because Facebook is, itself, a giant scam machine basically.

I get the point about the Arizona study -- but I can't help having a "meh" response to the overall argument he's making. Which seems to go about like this: (1) At least one study that attempts to put a number on the ris

I hope that's your goal as well? Absolutely, and I appreciate you civility as well. As to this statement, which wasn't mine: Police officers were murdered. I would agree that it is inflammatory; but "false" -- only a

My belief is that despite some initial reporting, no police officers were killed by the crowd. From: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Brian_Sicknick Within hours of his death, the Capitol Police released a sta

Anyone care to explain why? Did you read the article? It's utterly nonsensical, from the very first sentence. It isn't "hostile" to point this out.
