Trololol PoolTogether is literally a lottery scheme. How is that in anyway innovative and new? Looks like another polished scam to take advantage of ignorant users, or 'degens' in …

I hate when crypto bros assume 'we don't get it'. I wasted a year of my life working for a crypto company, I've actually committed code to Ethereum through the Geth project. I lear…

I'll take you up on that challenge. I can open open up my Wells Fargo app and initiate a wire transfer within 5 minutes. In fact, I sent $1000 to a home contractors bank account ea…

My remote org had an onsite this past week. I forgot how much I hate 'socializing' and how useless water cooler talk is. They tried their best to make it enjoyable but I am so much…

This makes me think of my grandfather, a master mason who worked with thousands of other masons to build large parts of my city. That skillset is nearly forgotten. Sure there are g…

I'm from Central texas, own 50 acres in the hill country and own several ar-15's. This guy is delusional, no one is shooting 30-50 hogs on their property. I only read the first few…
