Brilliant! The downsides of both crypto and centralized control! Just use Monero instead.

I’m on good terms with myself.

This is pretty much my view as well. I’m dreading this near future.

I can't read the whole article but from the first couple of paragraphs it sounds like ByteDance are using ChatGPT output to improve their own models. So the verge is upset that ByteDance are scraping a resource available on the interne

They use it because it provides an air of authority when the "person familiar with the matter" could be literally anyone.

You’ve struck on an interesting problem in decentralized systems, Sybil attacks [0]. How do you prevent someone from registering multiple accounts and pretending to be multiple people? In Bitcoin, and other cryptos, the problem is ignored b

This comment was marked [dead] when I read it. I vouched it back into visibility. I wish people would respond with a comment if they disagree, rather than reporting it. Meta-comment aside, there’s another population segment who suffer from

Right, I’ve noticed this trend too. It sucks and I find myself frustrated by how easily people go along with smooth talking sales/business types and allow them to take over positions of power. The truth is that builders can exist and b

The sad part is that nearly 100% of investment and resources will follow the big-profit group leaving the altruistic-mission guys in the dust with no resources and no money.

The link above is likely trustworthy but people should NOT put their wallet details into random websites.

Won’t this just incentivize people to not get tested for sleep apnea, thus reducing the overall quality of life and ability of people in Maryland?

As someone who has been into crypto for a similar amount of time I can confirm that this analysis of the state of the crypto landscape is accurate.

The difference is that dang is one of the rare mods that’s actually paid for the work. I assume this means it’s a job to him, rather than a means to satisfy some desire for power and control.

Thank you! I’ve been thinking this for a while but hadn’t quite found the right way to articulate it.

I feel like the available data is way too scarce to attribute positive results to any individual executive with any degree of statistical significance. Do you know if there’s been research done on this? My perception is that it’s really rea

> Actual gender change operations aren’t even done until adulthood This seems to be false according to this article [1] which claims that “In the three years ending in 2021, at least 776 mastectomies were performed in the United States o

I went to a FAANG at a similar point in my career to where you are now. More than tripled my pay. I firmly believe that any dev can get in if they practice enough leetcode problems. We are not special. I say go for it if you want it.

I find it insane that they chose to reveal their real identities. Despite building a tool ostensibly for preserving privacy they were extremely negligent about their own. They must be incredibly naive to think they wouldn't immediately

I don’t understand why ENS doesn’t support normal record types (A, AAAA, etc.) Support for these was in the original design for ENS. I hope we see more support for alternative roots in the future. Brave browser, which is already fairly cryp

Ok let me know when there’s an OS or browser that’s totally secure. Attestation does not prove that a device meets any security bar. And likewise lack of attestation does not prove that a device does not meet a security bar. Attestation mer

I've noticed some humans are willing to argue without giving up too. Sometimes online arguments follow a pattern where each response is longer than the last until one person decides it's not worth their time to continue the argume

Right, we already live in a post-truth world where it's politicians and journalists who omit or twist facts to support their agenda. It's not just politicians and journalists who do this, but they tend to have the most reach and i
