It's the best option if your alternative is mailing to a PO Box. Also I like this company August which makes a similar product. I'd rather just let the delivery person in remotely each time. I read August is also making a robot

Yet with some high profile defendants, the government gives immense discretion to them by communicating with their lawyers ahead of time and arranging an amicable surrender. The problem with your post is the problem with the federal governm

The 1st Amendment is only an acknowledgment that the government can't infringe on a natural right that pre-existed. If a company wants to proclaim an open platform but selectively enforce speech restrictions, then in a sense it is dimi

Planned communities that allow people to live with less effort and don't put arbitrary restrictions on them. And homeless push out the people who could be expanding their minds and imagination, trying to improve themselves and society.

The charges seem exaggerated. If he's responsible or directly involved in the Mt. Gox theft, then they should prosecute him for that. The referencing of Internet usernames as evidence of crimes indicates they have a weak case or they

Libraries are amazing and should be more celebrated and funded to expand their core mission. But cities like LA utilize libraries as refugees for homeless people which completely destroys the purpose. It should be a refuge for people worki

Can you elaborate further? When Mike Hearn quit bitcoin (Jan 2016), he wrote the Chinese miners were worried about bitcoin getting too popular because of their limited access to the Internet. And said they were actively trying to supress i

It's amazing BitGo whould shrug off Emin's help when he helped fix their software. Emin's super smart, ignoring his offer to serve as a technical advisor is ridiculous. And then BitGo goes on to be partially responsible for

If the soft fork goes through, the Chinese miners are going to attack the chain. If the soft fork fails, Core developer Luke-Jr said they'd change the Proof of Work algorithm and possibly create an altcoin (or bitcoin if enough follow)

If you're messaging someone to be fun or flirty, or just as causal friends, do you really want to see the random dumb things you said 6 months ago or 3 years ago on Facebook Messenger? Every messaging app is essentially like one long e

This problem is excruciating in West LA which made me think building crosswalk tunnels could have a substantial effect. There's a few of these crosswalk tunnels in Westwood.

I love TJ Miller and particularly liked what he did at the Techcrunch awards. But that's a silly anecdote. If you didn't know who Elon Musk was years before 2014, and your proud of being in some mindless film, I can't take y

The investor mentioned in the article is the basis for Axe Axelrod in Billions. Which is a wildly outrageous portrayal of him but probably has a lot of elements of truth (eg extreme paranoia) since he was clearly guilty of insider trading

Great post. If only such logical formalities were applied to law enforcement and the courts, we wouldn't be having this discussion. Cops routinely exceed their authority and misrepresent the law. I can only provide you hundreds of exa

So it seems the idea is you spend $400 to get a Bitcoin machine and then you have 25 cents to spend each day on news articles, apps or music in some effortless or 'identityless' way.
