Elon keeps picking companies that give big government grants. Space, electric vehicles, medical, infrastructure. Twitter is like the only company I don’t see getting direct government handouts.
He made his money from duping the people who give out our tax dollars.
Isnt that how all social media sites start out. Starts with nerd culture and eventually other people come in later?
I do think it’s important to mention that the jump to senior is largely an accumulation of domain knowledge,
I feel that. I’m a senior dev on my team of about 7 software engineers, but I often feel like I’d just be a junior somewhere else. Worst case scenario is I can add to my resume that I helped convert a vb6 shop to a c# shop, not sure what that’s worth though xD
I swear Jagex gets bought out every two years
I have a pixel 8 that doesn’t have any issues, but I can read the title that says Google’s quality control is shit. So I can understand my phone is okay and other people have problems. Even if I bought 100 pixels, my sample size would still be too small to dismiss other people’s claims.
Funnily enough, this is my first comment I’ve made about how my pixel is fine. So now I’m part of the problem :3
That’s not a perfect use case for it. That’s a central authority (venue) selling tickets to anyone who wants to buy them. But instead of using a local database and approving transfers from person to person and losing the ability to reverse transactions due to fraud, it’s hosted in the wild west of crypto.
There’s nothing stopping a venue from offering your perfect use case in a centralized system, but they outsource it to Ticketmaster (namely because Ticketmaster owns like 80% of music venues or something) so they don’t have to deal with it.
Your scenario outsources it to the block chain, who will charge gas for the transactions instead of ticketmaster charging fees.
I don’t know the value in a decentralized IP rights system. If the key holder gets phished, you can lose your rights to a TV series you’ve been working on. (Like Seth Greene)
He wouldn’t have lost it and had to pay back the ransom in a traditional contract. Having a contract centralized and enforced by the legal system has many perks and I can’t ever see how a decentralized rights platform can enforce itself.
Is this saying that let’s say I have an iron outpost and a copper outpost and two trains set to any item. Let’s say the copper outpost has a higher priority.
If one train is unloading iron and the copper train has left the copper outpost, the iron train would decide to go to the copper outpost? And if copper fully unloaded by then, it would go to the iron outpost?
Basically, the ability to have generic trains that just move stuff without a dedicated line?
Yeah, if we could not be 2016 election deniers, that be great.
Electoral college won’t change until Dems flip states like Texas or something to where the presidential seat is guaranteed every year.
If the DNC didn’t want Trump to win, they shouldn’t have put up Hillary. If the repubs didn’t want Biden to win, they shouldn’t have put up Trump.
Sadly, I think the DNC made a mistake in not setting up a replacement for Biden and letting him try for two terms.
Just to add some context, the statue was on private land. The decision to pull it down was by the owner.
If you go to a porn website, and they suggest a gay porn video, and you choose to engage in that content and masterbate to it, I don’t think you were converted, you were already curious / closeted.
Alaska, a red state, is reportedly trying to remove their rank choice voting. This isn’t a “Dems” problem, it’s a two party problem.

Even if state and local elections are ranked choice, the presidential election will still be a first past the post election and the electoral college is still designed for a two party system.
