Crypto is a tradable asset, and like any other tradable asset you can make money with it. In other words you can make money with money, just like a bank, only decentralized. It's not about the technology of the banks or crypto per se,

> Except that's not clear at all. Well it is when you realize the main feature of crypto is a decentralized bank and not a centralized one. A concept which makes it truly revolutionary in the time scale of humans using banks, but al

This opinion is really common, I used to have it but what changed my mind was realizing there are not really any "real world" use cases. I look at crypto as actual money, with the same definition: "money is a verifiable recor

There is so much incompetency in governmental IT/software decisions and software it's actually sad. Is it a product of smart people simply not working in this sector or corruption?. It seems from the outside to be filled with imb

Its pretty easy to from a tech perspective to tumble and swap coins or use a combination of both. Not only that but you can swap into different blockchains which have fully anonymous layers. So tracing a path is completely impossible. But t

Rigid formats sound great but that's unfortunately it's not 1985. Almost every document across most major industries is in .pdf and benefits from mutli size output(print, desktop, mobile). Adobe would not have spend millions in th

The Achilles heel pf PDF's are they don't have responsive layouts. It's so bad the Adobe team created an AI to resize layouts, yes an AI in the cloud, available only on the Adobe app. How insanely bad is your file format that

Like all things bitcoin it's easy. It's a lot easier to press a button on your phone and transfer 100k then it is to go through the pains of a bank transfer or any other payment method. I know hacker news is American centric but n

Looks cool , some points 1. Lot very early stage start-ups will simply use excel instead of 50$/month. You should have an easier price point to onboard just the planning features. As they grow they upgrade. 2. The docs leave a lot to b

The toolset looks like you made it for your own workflow and not actual users, meaning it's very rigid and tied to specifics instead of allowing for flexibility, I have a hard time actually understanding what this is for. The main feat

Amazon really missed the boat on Citus, a few more great acquisitions like this and Azure is going to look great (yes I know it can be still self installed on AWS).

You want people to put money towards a vague idea, just to see if it's a good idea? If you don't have a good idea and skin in the game, what on earth makes you think you'll be able to create something? I don't get it.

That's similar to what I had, you also need a gps receiver, so your investing close to 650$, not great for when your dog smacks it on a rock or tree. The problem is in a mountainous area you need line of sight, so it became practically

I wish someone who figure out how to make a paddling machine, it much better for your core, back and overall everything than a rowing machine.

Yes that does sound good. I'm working with Lambda with some great devs but we are all spending way to much time figuring our how AWS is structured and managed instead of actually writing code.
