Incredible that Namecheap would implement such poorly conceived policy! You’re shutting down Russian dissidents services? You are a defacto approving of the human rights policies of all the nations that you don’t apply this policy to

LN is too complicated imo. You can just use other chains if you want fast and cheap txs. Solana, Nano, Near, any of those.

I have loathed Adobe for this for years. Even worse, Adobe was supposed to make all of their products available under this single subscription, but now they want to charge users a separate additional subscription to access Substance Painter

Figure out what medium you'd like to work in (3D, painting, generative art, film, photography, etc.) and then take some classes on that subject. That will put you in touch with an instructor who is an artist and students pursuing art i

I'm thinking about learning Vue and Go. When and why do you use Node.js instead of Go for the backend?

Seems like inflation is skyrocketing to me. Specifically asset inflation. Housing prices, stocks, bitcoin, etc. Basically dollar becoming worth less against these assets thanks to QE.

You can only print so much money though before the dollar becomes worthless, so there is an opportunity cost since you can't print infinite dollars

Seems like you should be able to work remotely with your skill set even if you have to change jobs. If you can convince your partner to also go remote, then you could both become digital nomads and get your travel in. Or, you don't hav

My opinion is that we need to move to four day work weeks and each day should have six working hours. Knowledge workers are wasting their lives at work when they could get the same amount done in fewer hours.

Yes, exactly this. As long as the fiat on-ramps and off-ramps are KYC'ed everything that happens in between is an open book. The individual can just use cryptocurrency tax reporting software to provide a trade history for their taxes,

I agree that this provision is a disaster and will force a lot of cryptocurrency startups to incorporate outside of the US and also not offer their services to US customers. It's a real shame. The government should be able to get enoug

A new iPhone SE is $250 from Boost Mobile right now. The last time I owned a budget Android phone the MISC folder filled up with garbage that I couldn't delete until the phone was unusable. My iPhone SE will probably end up lasting som

This is excellent! I’ve lived this experience with a graduate thesis project that has taken over a decade to complete. Stephen Pressfield’s books (especially Do The Work) felt very close to the mark, but I also couldn’t buy into the idea th

Before streaming, a movie studio actually had to convince an audience to leave their houses and buy a ticket to make money from a movie. This meant the studio had to pour a lot of money into marketing for each movie. The cost to market a mo

What happened around 2006 is streaming. This caused DVD sales to tank, which had a massive effect on the film industry’s bottom line. DVD sales were a money printer and that cash allowed studios to take more risk. Once DVD sales started tan

You don't have to use an exchange to acquire cryptocurrency. People can use sites like localbitcoins to exchange cash for crypto in person.

Nano has free transactions. Other cryptos like Stellar and Solana have low cost transactions. People can use sites like localbitcoins to exchange cash for crypto.

If you're in rural India and don't have access to a bank account, but you do have internet access via a smartphone, then I could definitely see cryptocurrency being valuable to you. And that doesn't even take into account cou

I meant to post this in a thread about Bitcoin energy consumption, but it looks like I posted it under the wrong thread. Anyways, Nano is still a better version of Bitcoin.

Nano completely solves this. Under 1 second transactions fully confirmed, no mining, no inflation, it's decentralized (and getting more so). All the coins were premined. It uses a block lattice rather than a blockchain, so it is scalab

Nano (nano.org) is the cryptocurrency that could actually work as a means of payment. The transactions are fully confirmed in under 1 second, there are zero transactions fees, it's scalable, and there is no mining. It achieved this by

I don't think it's FUD. If the Chinese government wanted to destroy BTC (because it violated their currency control laws), they could do it by coercing the owners of the mining pools located in China and those pools do do current

There are only a few privacy coins (Monero, ZCash) at this time. I'm not sure why people in this thread are acting like privacy is a standard feature in cryptocurrency at this time. Also, privacy coins were just delisted from Bittrex,

Do you cut Windows 98 slack and still use it because it was designed in the 90s, or do you use a modern OS? Cutting technology slack because it was the first iteration doesn't make sense to me. I think Nano is more secure than Bitcoin

The lack of privacy doesn't seem to bother you in regards to Bitcoin.
