    Bitcoin fanatics are usually proud libertarians. And as far as I can tell, proud libertarians are pretty much just republicans who like drugs, so... I'm not surprised there's overlap in pronoun/mask opinions.

    If your web app design means the back button doesn't work your app is, from the user's perspective, broken.

    @aaronpk @Gargron I think Aaron's point is key - it's layering a social network on top of audio, giving a richer experience than just text, but not as heavy an experience as video (in a time when we're all sick of endless zoom calls).

    Ben Thompson had an interesting piece on his Stratechery site about the rise of Clubhouse and others in "social audio": https://stratechery.com/2021/clubhouses-inevitability/

    His main point being that these tools are making it even easier to discover, listen, and participate.

    Sorry your notifications are flooded, actually itโ€™s a very valid point. While the idea of @Bitcoin is fantastic, itโ€™s facing a lot of challenges it canโ€™t fulfill.

    I wish I wasnโ€™t surprised by this. I promise there are also good people who actually think Bitcoin could be a net positive AND not cause us to self-destruct. Sorry you are being exposed to the rotten underbelly of bitcoin Twitter that comes along with it.

    For making a joke about saving the planet by 51% attacking Bitcoin, today I have been called:

    - a bigot
    - an intellectual pygmy
    - a soy boy (several times)
    - hypocritical scum
    - part of the "SJW climate change pronoun gang"
    - a beta male

    So that's been fun

    The blockchain folks have a strange marketing advantage because the scale of energy use and pollution is literally unbelievably huge. It seems like it can't possibly be as bad as all that. We want to believe that someone, somewhere would have put a stop to it if it was that bad.

    this is a really good article about how bitcoin is a terrible tool for the problem it claims to solve, its enormous environmental costs are still being understated, and some fun anecdotes about the scale of the fraud it engenders (pirate HV transformers!) https://www.ofnumbers.com/2021/02/14/bitcoin-and-other-pow-coins-are-an-esg-nightmare/

    consensus is achieved by seeing which version of history had the most money thrown at it, and if it gets too easy to throw money at it, more money is required

    it's hilarious

    as a result of this, basically every implementation now which is designed to use it for Currency Things has to do the actual Currency Things "off-chain" through some other distributed protocol, and then only occasionally commit the results to the actual blockchain
