I agree. Was very surprised that most academic documents aren't being published in DjVu [0] format anymore, very sad. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DjVu …

I would only have to assume you haven't ran a business with over $2M ARR. Taxes, VAT, etc is a HUGE pain in the ass. It's been a long time for Stripe to introduce a solution for taxes after …

I know it might be very tempting in these times, but whatever you do please do not accept crypto! [0] It isn't the solution. please use cash or PayPal instead (try in another country) [0] https:…

still a scam, no matter how much lipstick the web3 pig is covered by.

You know it’s ok to say “I’ve made an emotional baseless assertion backed up with no evidence”. I hate google as much as next person on HN, but at least have some evidence.

not going to happen anytime soon. keep waiting.

You thought wrong, since nobody in this space actually cares about the technology. Like all the others, most people are just speculating on the token price, asking if it is a good investment, etc. You…

This is expected and a total outlier. You would obviously have to sell your soul for years to get that compensation. This is Meta's way of keeping you in to continue destroying lives.

Facebook/Meta employees, if this still isn't your cue to resign, I don't know what is.

Again, this can be done without using a blockchain. Just like all the other coins, the only use case is burning up the planet by using Ethereum, BTC, etc, racking up high fees and being used by specul…

Lightning network is not Bitcoin and not decentralised.

So basically a ponzi scheme that is expensive to join with guaranteed diminishing returns in mining. If I would like to lose my money in style this would be it.
comment
Lightning isn't really using Bitcoin is it? The strike app (which uses Lightning) is not available worldwide which really doesn't give the image that Bitcoin lightning is decentralised at al…

What is the process of getting your money back from a hacked DeFi project? Why do I have to pay more fees to swap tokens on decentralised exchanges making them unusable, and how exactly is DeFi decent…

Can you name any examples of cryptocurrencies being used that are not scams, ponzi schemes or for speculative purposes? All I see are people holding coins and not using them at all for anything else o…

I have no problem with white hat hackers, I'm saying more power to them in the broken web3 space, which that is a complete scam. However, I can use USD, GBP or any fiat currency in my local groce…

This just proves how insecure the blockchain / web3 / cryptocurrency space is. It's good to see white hat hackers in this space trying to fix what is already broken. But sorry to be tha…
