    Don't be a cog in the machine of an unethical company? Everybody's trying to act like it's soooo difficult, and every FAANG SWE is like some Obama-platitude "single working mother …

    Same way in my city. There are dozens and dozens of parking structures that are just absolute blights on the area, ultrawide streets that discourage and make miserable any form of …

    Ethereum isn't free, but L2s and L3s will cost cents or even fractions of cents. 2.9% + 30 cents per tx is a MASSIVE amount. Consider that a profit margin of 10% is considered good…

    I bought a bunch of skins in League of Legends. I no longer play the game. As a former player, I would love if I could sell those skins on the open market. Many times while playing…

    All of those things you mentioned can probably be solved with Account Abstraction and Application Specific Rollups. These technologies are still in the early stages but are moving …

    "why not let customers pay with real money via Stripe or another payment API" Because stripe takes a massive cut? "the end-user UX is lightyears better so you'll probably sell a lo…

    Common problem for many corporations, especially in times like these. They basically put it on life support the moment it is released so it never has a shot

    The killer app of Ethereum already exists, and it is the set of standards being built on it that allow you to easily interoperate with other financial applications. NFTs are basica…

    I don't think they actually want you to respond as if you work there. I think most students probably know that. Most likely this question was in a unit about certain types of stati…

    It's not about the consumer. The price is listed before tax to manipulate you into feeling like it's cheaper. If they add tax while you check out, you're basically already committe…

    I just had it write me code in a language I've never used before in my life, and actually create a script to automate something I needed automating. Pretty useful if you ask me. Mi…
