    Zuckerberg is just about the most uncharismatic and unrelatable person in America. He had no chance from the beginning.

    I’m pretty sure if Arizona’s lawmakers understood the underlying nature of machine learning and autonomous driving, they wouldn’t allow self driving cars to operate. I don’t care h…

    Once again, pure retardation. The blockchain is completely useless if not backed by miners and value creation, otherwise it’s just a regular distributed server. I’m glad you’re exp…

    You can get a transaction confirmed within 10 minutes if you’re willing to pay $30 in fees. This could change in the future, even if it doesn’t, it’s still remarkable that it’s a p…

    So in the dystopian future of Chinese bank account/citizen social points and even present-day American Fed/Bank collusion, you are continuously supportive of centralization? And no…
