That sounds like a very interesting comment that I'd like to read. Would you happen to still have the link to it?
sorry. I don't have that link.. the main post was either about usefulness of internet or about secret behind most successful people in tech - not sure which one precisely.

Most people I know invested in still talk about it as a currency. We talk transaction rates and all that, but they are still convinced it is the "money of the future." So I think a lot still luck out. There are clear market manipulations. But that's why I still stay out. I do not see it as a missed opportunity.
Sounds like your views on transaction rates are about a month out of date now
It is going to take a hard fork to fix this.

Maybe I'm project the experience of people close to me and my own, but it helps to not feel left out that we have jobs in somewhat valued careers with somewhat guaranteed future employment. I've been noticing that the more fragile the professional situation, the more people seem to regret or actively join the (already at full speed) bandwagon

I just switched our small company over to gitlab over the last couple weeks. So far the experience has been great. It seems like a really solid piece of software.
Yay! Thanks for using GitLab. Every month we're trying hard to make the installation, the performance, the security, and the interface better. Still a lot of work to do but we've come a long way from our beginnings being based on gitolite.
Also, I dont like GitHub's political posturing nonsense, so thats a major reason too.

I've felt the trans-humanist vibe historically but to be honest lately I've felt things swinging the other way (towards more pragmatic humanism). Can you explain more about this "irresponsible indifferent American fat and sick" thing you've encountered? As an American, I'm curious what has given you that impression specifically on HN.
I already did. But PT is not seen as viable, people enjoy living in suburbs and being reliant on private cars for anything, culturally less sensible to ecological matters overall compared to europeans (even though in Europe it scales, and I've felt people enclined to think ecologically most in Switzerland and Germany), mass consumption (people really love Amazon... I mean Europeans do too but Prime is less of a thing…

On the other hand, the homepage looks great in Firefox with NoScript enabled. It's nice to be able read about what a product does without enabling a bunch of scripts first. It seems a lot of sites these days make their landing pages using SPA frameworks.
It’s rendered on the server with React + Apollo + GraphQL, just like all the other Webflow-powered websites out there! ;)

Seeing an old account being downvoted for being unhappy is sad.
...and here come the downvotes to my comment. Good job HN.
