Honestly it’s a very lazy tack. Imagine what would actually happen if you are a young conservative and your leftist aunt or whatever gives you 1984.

Oh god Ayn Rand? I’m surprised he has the attention span. Yeah Anarchy State and Utopia.

Steel man his perspective. Give him something he finds interesting which will also teach him to develop his argumentation.

Citizen of Australia, never been more valuable than now

Australia, thank God

Thanks, I’m good! An Aussie

It’s my point of no return. Leaving in two weeks forever. Good luck.

I am a homeless man in San Francisco because I quit a public sector job that I was not allowed to fix with my good-ass coding skills. I have no regrets.

IMO, blockchain technology is good for one use case: illegal transactions.

I think all else can be achieved more efficiently by using a trusted third party write-only database, such as the ones available on AWS, and you’d also have the benefit of being able to go to court to seek relief. Some blockchain markets are basically reinventing banking systems and preexisting financial law - systems that have been built over centuries and have quite a bit of knowledge baked in.

I do like the shift to proof of stake from proof of work, but this tech is silly to me.

I’ve messed with Spanish, Italian, German, and Swahili. It is not my opinion that these languages are more difficult to learn than English, even with the reduced pronouns and gendered nouns.

I think you’re doing great.
