I am not convinced that having a vocal blockchain skeptic (Mr Gerard has written the book "Attack of the 50ft blockchain" and has written many articles critical of blockchain and d…

The total deaths went down by 40? How many of them can be directly attributed to this policy?

This is very interesting. Can you point me to some articles or further resources?

You are aware that much of your electricity is generated from carbon-emitting power stations?

So much confirmation bias. I haven't looked into Germany, but the French heatwave -- which is mentioned in the article -- has almost the same record temperatures as were recorded i…

I've just spent the past week reading/watching game reviews on BoardGame Geek. So many great games, so little time and money!

Didn't News Genius run into trouble by copying articles for annotation like this? https://glog.glennf.com/blog/2016/3/25/citation-appropriatio...

The whole point of WordPress is that you don't need to do much coding, so that point is moot. The vast majority of WordPress developers are designers or non-technical people who ei…

Be serious. If I use a page builder, such as Enfold or Visual Composer, I can get a client site completed in much less time, with a consistent design, and with more precision than …

It might be fine for casual users, but it's really not good enough for those using WP to make sites for clients. That said, I wish you the best of success with it, and will continu…

I'm not sure why you are "excited" to see this release. For those of us who create Wordpress sites for clients, this is a mess. A comparison of Gutenberg to any of the major Page b…

100% agree. Gutenberg should not given a public release until it is at least as well formed as the various page builders that are already out there.

Or when a well-known TV anchor pretends a whole area is flooded, but is actually standing in a ditch.

I remember being horrified by this effect when I was watching Star Wars on my friend's TV. It looked like a high-school production. But he was so proud of his new TV that he didn't…

There's no restriction, but these properties are really in a bad way. You might also want to look at Japan Real Estate: https://www.realestate.co.jp/en/

Japan is actually quite a cheap country to live in, especially outside Tokyo. But even, in the city, costs for food and daily living are reasonable.

Not exactly dumpster diving. The Japanese simply left their not-so old stereos and appliances on the street, where people like me were only to happy to give them a second life.

I don't think the voting mechanism is the problem. The problem is the humans who vote. For example, let's say that Civil attracts 10 publications to its platform, all of which are …

Civil's main problem is that the market for "quality news" is small. The token actually makes the situation worse: it makes it harder for people to pay for a niche product, and it …

>[The token] allows you to vote on how the Civil constitution is applied and thus how existing and newly formed newsrooms are shaped. In other words, censorship is embedded in the …
