Its not obvious that its any different than the defunct BurstCoin, which called its method Proof-of-Capacity

When you give people a lever, they tend to pull it. Silicon Valley CEOs have signaled they will respond to this kind of pressure.

More precise way of expressing this is: gold has industrial uses not "inherent value".

Well, its not called interest, its called 'staking rewards'. You can also earn interest lending out your ETH, but that's a different process and entails counterparty risk.

Documentary is about concussions, I saw it years ago. Has nothing to do with the player's preference for chiropractic.

Player likes chiropractic because he believes it makes him perform more optimally, you inserted/made up this concept of the NFL pushing chiro to save money "at the player's expense".

Pro-athletes preferring chiro is a strong counter-signal these "skeptic" articles.

Exchanges like CoinBase will stake for you. You as an individual don't have to do anything.

You're just making things up. It's not "at the expense of the player" These players are in peak physical fitness. If they want to go to any kind of doctor they can as they have medical insurance and they are all multi-millionaires.

NFL/NBA uses chiropractors; that's enough testimonial for me.

The fan noise is far too loud. You need a garage that is detached from your house and very far from your neighbors or you will get noise complaints.

1 BTC/day is 200,000 TH. ~15k ASIC miners.

Bitcoin makes no claim of being an income-producing asset. All non-income producing assets { gold, wine, art, baseball cards, air-jordans } are bought as a store-of-value with the hope of selling it at a higher price.

Ponzi appears to be an income-producing asset, but the income is paid out from the principal.

You could build some toy projects and compile to .wasm

"And it is for this reason that although banks don’t need your money, they do want your money. As noted above, banks lend first and look for reserves later, but they do look for the reserves."

Nassim could argue that its a "greater fool machine", but its literally not a ponzi.

There's a gold rush to accumulate ETH for staking reward payouts, and there is a new fee burn mechanism that will make ETH more scarce than BTC on a production basis. Demand for ETH seems to also be driven by DeFi products, NFTs and huge enthusiasm for the upgrade to PoS (July/Aug).

I don't have an ETH position, but this is my understanding of price action.

https://twitter.com/DocumentEther is a pretty interesting read

Cathy Wood did for one.

more like "shelled out 10 grand in the expectation that the car will pay for itself as it outcompetes Uber when he's not using it".

>Italians, Irish, Polish etc weren’t considered white

methinks, the Protestant elite wanted to keep out the Catholics

>the more house prices are juiced

More institutions are buying homes and competing with the homeowners, because bonds are very-low yield and the stock market overpriced in terms of P/E.

There's already Li-Cycle and Redwood Materials. No obvious reason why they couldn't scale.

Is there a limit to the number of staker-spots available? I'm wondering about inflation if too many people join the party.

Coinbase will manage it for you unless you are in NY

Its also a 3-part PBC documentary. I think the Catholic monasteries also played a role, but that's not integrated into his thesis.

A PWA can be install-able onto your phone, work offline (via service-worker cache), and receive webpush notifications. All three of these could be removed from chrome.

A trip to Europe or Japan is enough for to people like me to say, "there's something wrong with my urban environment but I can't quite put my finger on it." CityLab is an answer to that nagging feeling. There's also a neat software engineering cross-over as design patterns in software engineering is a response to Christopher Alexander's work on urban design patterns, "The Pattern of Streets"

Its just code for too many whites.

I read it through the lens of American history, an exciting frontier was conquered by interesting gunslingers but now its just a bunch of strip malls and Wendy's.

Mostly I'm in a rut as well

Low information density, on the landing page I see only 6 rows per viewport whereas hckrnews gives me 15. Do wish hckrnews had a nightmode though

You should have a "TRY DEMO NOW" button where I get to play with a demo sandbox. I just want to click around for a bit and I'm too disinterested to make an account.
