Offline wallets aren't secure unless they're running on fully self-contained hardware. Offline doesn't protect against keyloggers and malware. If it's not a hardware wallet you've potentially already been owned and…
I hear value conflated with price in this discussion and most discussions related to economics. Value is a completely subjective thing and does not dictate price (or necessarily influence it). Bitcoin's price says…
Get more done without distractions: Ditch "productivity" software and just use a calendar and a list of monthly, yearly goals. It doesn't require a browser and 2+ GB of memory! It won't shutdown one day, and the best…
People warned us. They told us so. Instead of building decentralized tools that protected and empowered user data we've spent the last 20 15 years uploading our entire lives to Google and Facebook.
The web has really regressed in the last 20 years. It used to be as simple as writing a markdown document is today. People even made pages using visual point-and-click editors known as WYSIWYG. Pages loaded fast,…
No, that's a post-facto justification trotted out whenever someone questions the capital gains rate.

Great. Now we could structure the text with a markup language and syndicate it. Anyone could consume these syndicated feeds using a variety of free apps. We could even standardize this and call it... RSS :)
You're correct. It performs terribly. On my 2016 macbook it takes 20.48 seconds just to load the interface from refresh according to Firefox devtools. Yes, a lot of this is network traffic. It's still terrible for a…
Let's be clear: Filecoin has no working product. THERE IS NO FILECOIN. $200 million for literally no working demo. We might as well turn VC into a lottery.
We need a study measuring how much business chat tools are used for non-work communication. I keep hearing from managers that these tools aren't massive distractions, so let's look at the data!

This! The USA is cruel and you could spend years building a life only to be kicked out. You can only get H1Bs from big corporations, and socially Americans treat foreigners with disdain. Canada, Australia, Taiwan, are…
Listen to yourself. Edit: Nobody is suggesting that cars be made illegal. But pretending (yes, pretending) that bicycles, even e-bikes, are a threat to the safety of pedestrians is not supported by any facts or…
5,000+ pedestrians killed by vehicles in 2015. But let's start worrying about e-bikes!
Here's a conundrum: Cars kill ~30,000 people per year in the USA. Vehicle emissions cause ~58,000 premature deaths. That's a problem. Not bicycles, not E-bikes, not bike sharing programs, not motorcycles, not…
