In my experience that has never happened Usually its a bunch of people advocating for socialism, screaming silence is violence, and saying white people are going to hell From what I've seen (maybe this is just the bay area) you don&#x2

You can but only really one will have value There are crypto punks on Binance / Tron but they are pretty worthless. Everyone knows which one is the real one For most projects that go multi chain it’s all about wrapping. I.e the main it

Hey — don’t listen to these clowns. They are upset because all they do is make enterprise widgets for a megacorp and memorize leetcode. Most software engineers in megacorps are incredible risk adverse (similar to doctors and others who foll

Game theory? Distributed systems? Cryptography? The technical challenges in crypto are much more interesting than that of a FANG company’s (i.e enterprise software and widgets)

True retail is mostly on CEX's. Folks on DEX's are mainly power users. Also there are two reasons why DEX's have high volume: - Long tail of assets are only on DEX's. Average retail isn't buying these - DEFI protoco

This article employs the same malicious cropping Taylor Lorenz did that made people so mad. I think the origin story is not that she complained about the CEO of Away, it was that when Balaji copied her exact wording, she cropped out the ori

It is funny that Alex Stamos works there. After all his morale handwringing about working for Facebook, he is now working for Zoom, a Chinese Communist Party spy operation. Not only does he work for them, his job is to shill them so that pe

One reason people don’t trust China’s aid is that the shortage is caused by China. They bought up the worlds supply of PPE (over 2 billion masks) and nationalized factories owned by foreign companies (such as 3m) so their masks produced sta

What I find interesting is that my opinions on Edward Snowden have drastically changed over time. When the leaks first came out, I regarded him as a hero, for exposing what the US Government was doing. At this time my view of the world was

The CIA definitely was not behind Tiananmen square and there is no way it could be behind a two million person strong protest... Conspiracy theory is one of the strongest forms of propaganda. Alex Jones is dumb but effective. It’s a slipper

This is why a quit weed. Weed makes being bored fun. So all the motivation that being bored typically gives you goes away and you are content to do nothing. However it is healthy to be bored, and you need this push in order to accomplish th

I hate these style of interviews. I give them to prospective engineers every week for one of these FAANGM companies. They don't test for good engineers -- they test for people who practice these style interviews, and for good new gradu

The economist is much cheaper when you sign up for a student account - if you have your university email that will work. I do recommend subscribing -- their articles are really good. I find the give a great global business perspective. The

Both companies are massive and have tons of developers. It becomes almost impossible to look at the system as a whole with the amount of changes coming through. And, you get scenarios where small failures cascade through the stack reaking h

I microdosed shrooms once (.1g) and it was distracting. I guess my creativity was 'up' but that was because I kept getting distracted by cool lights and random thoughts. It did motivate me to workout but mushrooms always make me w

The romanticism comes from the fact that 4chan has been incredibly influential in internet history. Chaos is a ladder, as they say in GOT, and some of the best content out there has come from 4chan. The lack of identity and point system als

I was a nic addict for several years. Most of the time it was spliffs (weed mixed with nicotine) but my consumption rate was probably the equivalent of 4-5 cigs a day (8 king size spliffs per day). I also smoked here and there but I didn’t

Your 'observation' doesn't seem to match reality. From what I have read, China has had a huge increase in household debt over the last few years. Perhaps five years ago there where not many Chinese people living with debt, bu

I'm not arguing for or against Iran sanctions. However, they exist, and the US has a history of enforcing such sanctions. Getting around sanctions is typically given large punishments (see the Movie 'War Dogs'). This is not s

We still don't know why they have been arrested. The only reason that China has given was they were 'endangering national security'. Seeing that they use this reason every time they want to arrest a dissident, it seems like

China is making themselves look horrible here. Ms. Meng has a proper reason for being arrested (the allegations are that she committed fraud to bypass US sanctions against Iran and sell them US tech by lying about HuaWei and SkyComs involve

I disagree. Take Arms. Lets say the US has an arms embargo with a country like Iran. You would agree that it definitely is a violation (and it would be of many international treaties) to purchase US arms as a Hong Kong (replace with whateve
