Glad to hear that the software engineer selection method is determined by this very rigorous process of character assessment. No wonder why big corporations produce such amazing teams.
And how do you calculate that the C02 problem could be solved with $10T - $50T? And over what time period could an investment of 10T solve the problem? And how would it be done?
thanks for responding. why does bitcoin remove this cantillion effect? Remember that Roger Ver, who was in the room when Segwit 2 was discussed, decided to go forth with the bitcoin cash fork, which pleased the miners. It appears to me that miners are able to turn profit, that's why we see new mining facilities popping up around the world.
also, does the market actually select the most efficient technology? Anecdotally speaking, crypto "investors" en masse appear to know very very little about the underlying tech - most appear to invest because "number goes up"
Finally, there is legitimate risk of societal collapse on the table due to climate collapse. Is that something you factored into your perspective?
We are rapidly depleting our remaining carbon budget. Can a bitcoiner please explain to me why this is a necessary technological development right now?
it shouldn't be required to have a social circle to enjoy the holiday season, if people truly extended christmas greetings and cheer to others around them. unfortunately since the 1950s, christmas has evolved into a commercial and transactional affair.
why not talk more about the labor theory of value? imo the future of "productivity" should be the realization that the fetishizing of hustle culture is a byproduct of excessive orientation towards captialism https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmMJbwE8j98
Why should anyone be excited about reusing captured C02 as fuel for gasoline?
The climate crisis is incredibly dire, do not forget. We are rapidly sleepwaliking into a catastrophic 2 degrees C of warming.
what an awful waste of energy. Each bitcoin transaction uses the energy equivalent the entire lifespan of a tree. Effectively, each bitcoin transaction is cutting down of tree... in this case, for a hamburger
Something people don't think about enough is the exponential effects of this kind of disaster. None of these effects are reversible - once the carbon and heat are in the atmosphere, they stay in our atmosphere. Which makes disasters such as category 5 hurricanes and 500 year floods more and more likely in the coming days.
As a Typescript developer, I really like this! Haskell has always been difficult for me to grok but this syntax makes bridging the gap really intuitive. Bravo!
I was really impressed with how I could get a perfect lighthouse score app build so quickly using gatsby and tailwind css. I only had a weekend to do this and I'm thrilled with the results. Hopefully this can get some reach before the Tuesday primaries.
Yeah, the undertaking would be quite extraordinary if they could get it working. Something tells me that this is going to take a few years to develop (preemptively giving a "bravo" if it could be done sooner ;) )
500 million animals wiped out in the blink of an eye and we look the other way. When humans start dying, I think we will continue to look the other way.
Have been chatting with a radiation oncologist about this. His response: "imaging appears to be the same as F18-FDG-based PET. Just a bit more convenient since the patient doesn't need a normal blood sugar. And prob 2-10x the price"
You've been rejecting climate change evidence for years - your mind is clearly already made up. Nobody on this comment board is going to be able to convince you of how to reasonably react to overwhelming evidence. "Convincing" will happen when you can accept reality for what it is, instead of rejecting it for your own sadistic individualistic pleasure.
I think this idea is cool, but I cant read this inline javascript. To the creators of this site, please add an option to view the code formatted with prettier
With their market share, Evernote has so much potential to make helpful and innovative products, yet they screw it up so badly. They rarely add features, and when they do, they're never the ones the users want. I'm determined in my lifetime to create an alternative that actually reflects the needs of people who are idea creators.
