With greater income comes greater mobility.

Parents retiring to a place more than a short drive away has unintended consequences. Or children moving far away for employment.

In this particular case the gparents moving near WDW made this outcome: post child rearing, only 35 separate visits for the rest of their lifetime (25+ yrs) each visit required plane trip & time off.

It was the gparents choice to move so far away..... And WDW was a wonderful place to share our time together.
Congrats to this terrific team. Excited to work with you!
A big problem with this strategy is that presumably you're buying the coins after they've had a huge run-up and gone into the top 50. Since you aren't doing any type of research into the coins, they are quite likely to be just pump and dumps. Just something to consider, even if you can afford to lose the money.
Packets don't damage network infrastructure, and lack of competition is not a different topic.

ISPs' monopoly on access to broadband customers allows them to extract rents based on the marginal value of each transaction. There's no reason we as a society should allow this.

At least the queueing thing totally applies to people in China too. There's little queueing culture in many circumstances, so you either learn to shove ahead or you get left behind.

Is it really so different than blood transfusions, which are not even blinked at by most people anymore?

> how much is getting cured of cancer at a very young age worth? dying vs. living another 80-90 years?

A tough question, made tougher by the side effects of doing so. $500k per infusion pays for quite a few mostly-healthy low-income uninsured kids to get basic pediatric care. The US healthcare system is already priced too high for a lot of people - I pay $2,002.25/month for my family.

> should Apple be the most profitable company - or someone that literally cures cancer?

Wrong comparison. The majority of software is built, deployed, maintained and used by entirely different organizations over years.

Companies doing end-to-end CD and running their software only internally are the minority.

This kind of bad practices from few developers turns into countless hours of work to maintain systems years later.
We have a fancy Miele dishswasher in our current house, which was installed by the previous owners. This is the most unreliable dishwasher I've ever seen. It fails at least once per year, with a new thing every time. There is only one repair shop in our area that will service Miele, and they are backed up weeks sometimes.

Our old house had a cheap, builder-grade GE dishwasher. We lived there for 10 years, and it never failed.

Once you get past that point, though, you're faced with your personality type.

In my 20s I loved driving, I had my radio, complete privacy, my 1.5 commute was tolerable.

Now I'm in my 30s, and I hate my hour spent in the car everyday. Not because I can't find a good song or a good podcast, it's just that it feels like such an enormous waste of time. At least if I used public transit I'd be getting exercise. In my car, I'm just forced to sit and pay attention to the road, I can't read HackerNews or watch a show or read a book that isn't available in audio.

So you say mining of Bitcoin only follows the market value?

Isn't it at least to a large degree the other way round? That market value is following based on what is the most mined chain?
If there's a split and 80% of mining power switches to one branch. Then the 20% branch loses a lot of utility for at least some time. It now has five times slower transactions until difficulty gets adjusted(or you change the proof of work of bitcoin, which itself can be precarious). And now to a minor degree the minority chain has also less safety (less hashing power).

Meanwhile why should anyone buy or send Bitcoins at the point of a split? There's a real chance that one branch will die and then you can lose the coins. The best strategy is probably to wait. So the market at least is in some way inhibited during a split.

On the other hand I'd argue miners of the minority chain have a lot of pressure to change branches. Market is not yet a good indicator only hashing power and they'll lose money if they don't continue to mine on the more profitable chain. Their safest bet is to change chains. Also they know that other miners of the minority chain think probably similarly. That's why imo in Bitcoin history every fork/split was resolved very quickly and a branch "won".
And somehow they did reward it with a $500 bounty before it fell through the cracks, and a $4500 bounty after it was rediscovered.
PythonBooks: Find the best Python books
Purely speculation here, but I would think that devs would want to invest their time in established gaming platforms with established customer bases. Native applications with large amounts of engine / tooling built around them.

Again shooting from the hip here, but given the restricted environment of the web browser, it would seem difficult to believe that you could make a high performing full game given that you need to download THE ENTIRE GAME essentially every single time you play, no? So that restricts the size / complexity I would wager.

Exactly. There are many schools (in the east in particular) where privileged children end up who didn't get into the Ivy League, Stanford, U of Chicago or U of Michigan.

The value of the alumni and professional network of these lesser schools, as well as the brand name, is lower than the top tier schools, but the parents often did attend a more elite school, and their network offers inter-generational benefits.

It's interesting that state schools like Michigan accept a large number of less competitive in-state students, thereby providing the sort of springboard you mention, while also attracting a top tier of students that is on par with those attending Ivy League schools.
No, I meant proof of work.

You change the proof of work algorithm so that the existing miners can't use their fancy Bitcoin miners, and it becomes profitable to mine with GPUs instead.
I created PythonBooks as a side project.

The website is a guided repository of Python books. It classifies Python books into fine grained categories and shows the best books in each category.

It's ok! I think you gave a good insight on what you're saying.

The thing is, we don't use Instagram on every brand we work with - because the audience isn't there, or it's there but their usage behavior is completely different on this channel when compared to other more effective media channels.

Even if you mimic IG style, IG users aren't that prone to leave the app by clicking on outside links. This may sound cheesy, but on FB people are waiting for relevant content to come to them, on IG people are looking for inspiration.

We use it mainly for branding, and it works great for that. So Clicks/CTR to website isn't the best KPI for this platform imo.

Facebook was 10x better than myspace. (More like 1000x, imo.)

Hard to see that anything fb does can come close to 10x better than Snapchat. They can (already have?) achieve parity easily by copying, but that will only gain them a very gradual shift at best — nothing like the radical shift from myspace to facebook.

Regarding Myspace, I'd even suggest that they shot themselves and Facebook was well positioned and well designed to take the credit. To put it another way, I think myspace would have eventually imploded even if facebook hadn't existed. But that's wild supposition that I wouldn't claim to be able to back up with any evidence. I just know that I was 100% done with myspace long before I found fb.

If it has beaten Snapchat why is my Twitter feed full of memes about a dancing hotdog Snapchat filter?

I have this inkling that tech press and lots of the tech community are super eager for Snapchat to be destroyed because they never understood it in the first place, dismissed it as stupid and still don't understand it and that bothers them.

If Zuck manages to destroy it then it'll confirm to them that Snapchat didn't really have any special sauce and it's fine that they didn't understand it.

This is based on the idea that mining has been concentrated. Which I agree, but the problem with accumulating too much wealth in a coin is there's nobody to trade with. I own a domain called 1trillioncoins.com so technically I'm the first trillionaire. but since I have no one to trade with it's pretty pointless.

Also, if the bitcoin Oligarchs dump too much too fast the price will plummet. So, if you take into account time value of money it doesn't make economic sense to hoard too much of a coin.

I think your still missing my point. A small aircraft running out of fuel is a common problem. If you turn on an autopilot when there is not enough fuel to get to an airport they don't deal with this situation.

So, no we don't have fully autonomous small aircraft autopilots. We have the equivalent of lane following + collision avoidance not the full range of piloting skills because they are designed as assistants for pilots not replacements for pilots. Worse a pilot in the aircraft or on ground would also needs to deal with air traffic control which is a vastly larger jump than reading road signs etc.

PS: Yes aircraft autopilots can deal with ~99% of the time flying just fine. But, that last 1% has dragons. Getting an autonomous trick to drive on highways in most weather conditions but which would drive into road construction is a good analogy.

I had a conversation a few years ago with Buzz Aldrin. He was talking about his idea for a Mars Cycler which would travel continuously between Earth and Mars. I told him that I thought it was a great idea (especially as it would be investing in 'permanent' space infrastructure instead of a single-shot mission) but that I thought it was unlikely that the government would allocate enough resources to build it. He seemed very disappointed with me, as if by making a realistic assessment of today's politics that I was voting in that way. I'm all for spending money in Chryse Planitia instead of Helmand province. So is almost everyone I know. But I feel like the chance of the US government actually funding something serious in space is pretty much nil. And I have no idea how to go about changing that.

My understanding is the US the Patent Office is severely backed up, which is the delay. There are a lot of companies that use their product while it is in the patent process. You'll notice this whenever there is the note "Patent Pending".

I have no patent and am not in the process of getting one but I would suggest you do use it even though it isn't granted yet. There is no guarantee that you will get the patent and if you wait a few years and you don't get it granted that is a few years you could've been using it.
