> The whole design is based around multiple selections as an editing primitive This makes a lot of sense and I wish it were easier to do elsewhere. Probably wouldn't leave the vs code ecosystem for this alone, though.

The focus here is on the environment. However, plastic is linked to many health issues as well.

No, because your holding increases the price until someone else decides it's time to tell. In other words, the lack of liquidity increases price. Regarding your original question, that increase is GOOD for the company because it can ra

Legacy. Do you really think they're only worried about profits at this point?
10.
by maxqin1 5y ago
At their ages they can barely stand on their own, so I'm not too worried about any grandstanding.
11.
by maxqin1 5y ago
Exactly. But these guys are too old for the short game at this point. They are about legacy. And that should make these statements hit that much harder.

It's against everything they stand for in terms of value investing.

The moral problems exist for a minority of USD, but a majority of BTC.

by maxqin1 5y ago
I'm not familiar with foreign drug and weapons markets, but even so, That is still a significant minority compared to USD as a whole. BTC as a whole is used for just that and gambling.

Bitcoin doesn't have the equivalent of a "free press." And TOR is rarely used. Journalists use apps like Signal now.

It's very interesting, actually. I interpreted as "Bitcoin is bad but the cult of Bitcoin is nuts so we have to be careful about what we say." What's more interesting is how the Bitcoin investor club is managing to delud

When was the last time you tried to move a million in cash? It's not that easy...

Yes, and yes. But, if Berkshire wanted to they could pump BTC to new heights and undoubtedly make a profit.

Except the primary use of the dollar is good. The same can't be said about the primary use for Bitcoin (which is, at best, speculation).

Working together is in the best interest of humans. Humans require trust to operate. A system designed around mistrust is inherently against our nature.

Very true. But GDPR is pure annoyance. I wish they would 100X consequences of offenders and quit wasting development time on the worthless permission prompts.

Is it mission critical? Sometimes a data loss can be quite liberating.

Nothing ironic at all. That's how I treat anything that is important to me. I like to ask questions. And the world is always changing. To think continuous change is "ironic" sounds problematic to me. I mean, that's why t

Yes, the snoring and sleep apnea is a big one. It was so sad to see, but weight loss from cancer in obese people does the same thing (cure sleep disorders). If only those people could have realized that before their bodies degraded into can

by maxqin1 5y ago
While I agree about other factors contributing, your missing how vital food is in the equation. All of the things you mentioned are highly dependent on food. For example, high amounts of sugar will undoubtedly lead to depression and burnout

It's sad that companies act so immorally that GDPR must exist. But I guess it's good this guy found yet another way to recover lost data?
