What's needed is more focus on building a healthy society and teaching people how to have balance in their lives, but that seems to be in direct conflict with mindless consumerism. We can't have it both ways, and I suspect nothing

This is excellent life advice in general, and it feels great to know you can do it yourself.

The irony is that these techniques are against their own TOS for Adsense/Adwords, but I guess it's more of a "do as I say, not as I do" sort of situation.

Just enjoy what little online freedom you have while it's here. It doesn't matter if this bill passes or not, the fact that 99% of the general population just don't think about or care about this sort of thing means that we w

It seems that most people miss the point. The software we create is a direct reflection of the problem that is being solved. If you are hired by a small 3 person startup company to help them build an MVP on a budget for an untested business

Public opinion is the last thing on the mind of the leadership. If they cared what we thought, there wouldn't be a war in the first place. Nice idea though.

This is probably good advice, just remember that crypto is also digital and totally transparent (mostly). If you obtain your crypto via an exchange, then your wallet can be positively linked to your physical person, and (eventually) prohibi

I don't think you need to have a business model if you can be sure of user growth and app downloads. In today's startup economy you can get almost unlimited funds as long as you can provide growth... the revenue can come later, it

I can't say I'm surprised, but I can't help but feel he would have been much better off if he wasn't so rich. I wouldn't be surprised if they kept him locked up for life to ensure there is no possibility for anyone

Not quite the end... since a lot of shareholder value was created due to the move, others followed their lead (even without the threat of lawsuits). Now we argue about capitalism, globalization, human rights, etc. but can't seem to rec

> what is an identity? PGP is a good solution, and in general the crypto space has the right idea in my opinion. I like the idea of using cryptographic key pairs to sign messages and prove identity, but the learning curve makes it imprac

Not really, life _isn't_ fair, so do what you can to make the most of it. No matter who you talk to, everyone will have their hardships, but complaining about it rarely makes things change for the better. I'm not saying one should

I like the idea of public blockchains because it gives anyone an opportunity to record a message that is persisted and visible globally. That doesn't necessarily make it worth much, but the utility of it is great. Want to make a declar
