I found that I experienced something similar on stuff as light as adderal/vyvanse/focalin or cigarettes. As someone who has taken most of the stuff out there I agree with trabant that they help return exit 0, and think…
I may not work in healthcare, but I work in health-tech, most of my family worked at a health insurance company for most of their lives, and previous generations were tobacco farmers in KY. We can build a city on a…
>The anti-vice authoritarians only stop here because they would be eviscerated if they tried to ban something like alcohol. But we should be careful about emboldening the moral busybodies with national victories. Bingo.…
>Your argument boils down to “I want the right to poison myself and the convenience to do it at easily accessible retail outlets.” Yes this is my argument. >The suggestion that we should restrict healthcare based on the…
I must have missed the memo that Prohibition worked after we banned alcohol and weed. This is a ridiculous overreach. The end game is for people to stop smoking altogether, and while that would be good for American…
This is excellent! Love the basic HTML look as well. Love the project, will follow along!
Why would people prefer to use a paypal that settles on the bitcoin network vs a paypal that is based around USD?
No idea. It was $10 and I ended up using the Pro discount to make it worth it, so really no hard feelings!
Fundamentally the responsibility is my own. They did not make my job discerning what I needed to use the service easy though.
Stadia doesn't cost anything per month to use. I can see how their horrible wording on the website and insistence on signing you up for the 10$ a month Stadia Pro can make it seem otherwise. I actually signed up and…
Covid makes it harder to be someone who has plans on a Friday night. Don't be so hard on yourself, it gets better.
Trump was a beast for the ages. AOC is closer to a regular ol' populist. Note how she and Cruz were the first to join the ranks of angry people online in lambasting Robinhood before they could explain themselves in the…
I commented to respond to this and deleted it, since I realized I was making some wrong assumptions. If you saw it, please disregard it. I'm still not convinced the change doesn't require a hardfork, which would involve…
I think divisibility will get in the way eventually. What happens when over a period of 200 years enough keys are lost to where there are only 10 million Satoshis left in active circulation? Surely by then people will…
This is confusing to me... I believe that neo-liberalism is fundamentally making decisions according to evidence to benefit our society regardless of tradition / religion / who said it. To me, that openness to solutions…
As a liberal from a very loudly conservative state who moved to California, I believe that California's classist policies are racist when it comes down to brass tacks - especially its feudal age prop 13. I'm glad Ezra…
I can't disagree. I'm not convinced that your average tax paying American will benefit from this - if anything the difficulty in taxing wealth and loss of ability to print/control money granted to Americans by American…
>I am not saying that it can't be mismanaged by a state, but you do not have anything better than state fiat money. I agree with this! At the moment I don't see many things that are better yet. I hope to see an obvious…
I could have been more specific, you're right! I believe the value of cryptocurrency is to neuter governments' abilities to inflate or devalue currency with the push of a button, and to improve our ability to transact…
How does someone measure the potential value of "being a pain in the ass to those who seek to control the supply of money"
It only took a few months! https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24372036 Should have seen who would be the main benefactors of this trick though...
I bought the SE2 last year and would have paid the difference to get a Mini instead if they were available at the same point in time. EDIT: I had heard the rumors but you can't expect people to delay their phone…
Yeah to add to my above comment, I don't see why anyone would think it's "new internet" or use it in any non-subversive use case
I'm under the impression that many of the blockchain-ers see it more as a new internet and less of a means of executing "trustless logic"
It's not the start of a massive shift. You'd be surprised what the gaming spending per platform breakdown looks like - phones are a MASSIVE chunk, and growing by far the fastest. I don't have the numbers on me to back…
