Take a second to think through why it might be bad for a 2nd grader to seek high schoolers as social peers.

If you actually believe that, I have a bridge to sell to you.

They aren't auditing anything. Programmers/engineers don't audit budget and spending. If they were doing an audit, they would have accountants on their team, which they don't. If y…

Do British citizens get to vote on who each parliament party puts forward as their leader?

No one takes .so seriously even after notion.so. Hell, I'm sure countless people still try .com before giving up and Googling "notion" (or maybe that's just me, but I doubt it).

Terrible take. You want the USA to follow the same policy on speech that Communist China follows?

We get it, you don't like crypto. You would be better off leaving the snark and sarcasm at home if you want to get your points across without sounding bitter. Your last line comple…

Key point: on weekends. Northeast corridor is high demand all week long. And much more of the national economy flows through that region. LA Vegas is mostly leisure.

The first paper on AI and Neural Nets was published in 1945. What's your point? 15 years is not a very long time for deep tech.

A normal database isn't able to be easily disseminated by the people who need access to this data, which is enormous. Then who gets to host it? Real Estate associations are too man…

Everyone said the same thing about ML/AI 5+ years ago. Hard things take time.

Agreed, this is the kind of use case blockchain excels at. I worked on a project that attempted to do something like a distributed MLS, and we had major industry leaders on board i…

> it merely aims to be a new mechanism by which value is transferred, which by most objective measures it's very bad at doing. What objective measures are you using? Over $3 Billio…

There's been a few examples of use cases said by others in this thread, and your financial settlement use case is a great one. Any time you need to move money around multiple parti…

On the contrary, there is a there there, it just takes a tremendous effort and coordination to get to a point where it's actually useful.

There's nothing absurd about a company seeking to legitimize a component of their business. The crypto industry is not built around avoiding government rules, that's a myth propaga…

Without the sarcasm, yes :)

The same place that took trillions of dollars in exchange for low-yielding treasury bonds. The same place that effectively devalued said treasury bonds when they decided to rapidly…

We're not talking about poverty. We're simply talking about restoring the bank deposits of early stage companies.

We're not, we're bailing out startup companies. You know, the main audience of this social media platform we're on?

Companies shouldn't fail just because their bank lost their money. That's ridiculous and not at all the principle of a free market.

Socializing losses is what enables high risk high reward businesses. Without it, the US wouldn't be half the innovative country it is now.

What about social media, is that a net negative? Gig economies? Every societal shift enabled by technology comes with significant negatives, but you won't know if it is a true net …

You can't wait to see millions of people lose money and in some cases their livelihoods? Maybe you should stop blaming cancel culture for your declining karma and do a little bit o…

Cirtrix hasn't ever been the parent company to LastPass. LogMeIn bought Citrix's GoTo product division, and also bought LastPass, so that's the extent of their relationship. LogMeI…
