I suppose jk rowling and her views about women's rights and how trans-rights are clashing into them? The consequences are that have been many attempts to cancel her (some successful).

I like how the title of the article is "crypto bro dinner" but they spent most of the time talking to a women. Either way they all sound insufferable. It was however an interesting article to read.

Yes but they keep doing these "small" things, that individually don't cross any lines but do add up over time.

There is an excellent podcast series * that explains that we have in fact been in conflict with Russia for all these years. Grey Zone warfare is when you indirectly fight your opponent, of fight then in such a way that they don't even

Yes of course there has. Take the UK during WW2 for example, there was this campaign: https://dig-for-victory.org.uk/

Was going to post something similar - but I think you capture my thoughts eloquently. I would add that HTTP itself needs to be redesigned, as it favours the client-server model too much. Something like IPFS? Although that doesn't se

I honestly believe crypto has a future, but what it looks like I do not know. We're currently in the crypto-bubble, which much like the early web, is full of money grabbers and idiots. I use Brave as my daily driver, and to hear that

It's more than a name change though isn't it? It's access to women only spaces and women only sports etc. This is what people are really upset about. I don't think people actually care about name changes.

Here's my prediction: Russia will take control of all or most nuclear power plants and other infrastructure. At which point it's only a matter of time until the people of Ukraine will surrender with no water or electricity. As it

Unfortunately in the West I think this might be identity politics. There is very much a "us Vs them" attitude with the whole thing. To give an example I see a lot of LGBT "allies" with pin badges, flags, etc. To label on

Humans have survived on Earth without infrastructure or farming for most of our existence, so even if the worst happens I can see some people surviving if there are enough natural resources left. It would of course depend on hunter /
