    Bitcoin / Cryptocurrency Discussion (And Predictions)

    HOT! CRYPTO 
    I agree that Bitcoin is neither an effective nor efficient way to get rich. My personal view is it's essentially digital gold and has deviated far from Satoshi's original vision of it becoming 'digital cash' By "The government" I'm inferring you mean the U.S. government. IMO the U.S...

    Beyond @csalvato 's response, many people on the forum are aware of copywriting (especially the importance of getting peoples' attention via the headline) and media distortion. The actual suggestion was much more nuanced: Source: Senate Finance Committee record

    Web Development, need answers from people who DO

    Follow the broad SDLC process I mentioned above. Step 1 - Gather Requirements - is the most important. Doing this incorrectly is what kills most startups. - What is the target market/user you're trying to serve? - Who are your existing competitors? - What features/benefits will your app offer...

    Web Development, need answers from people who DO

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Since you know basic HTML, CSS, JS, and SQL, I recommend continuing to build on those skills vs going wider. You can use JS for front-end frameworks (eg. React, Next.js) You can use JS for back-end APIs (eg. Express, Knex.js) I'm not an advanced dev so I haven't run into an explicit need for...

    Same here, I'm an introvert who underestimated the importance of communication skills. No company will hire you if you can't communicate to the interviewers how you would be an asset to the company. No person will date you if you can't convey some charm and personality via communication. No...

    Went to watch it last week and had a lot of fun. Thanos was pretty badass, but MVP was THHHOOOOORRRR! Not familiar with the comics so don't care too much about nitpicking the details (nor how 'unrealistic' a comic book movie is). I was hoping to see more Hulk though..

    Providing Value DOES NOT Equal Money

    HOT! 
    Convincing others to give you money sounds pretty hard to me. It may be easier if you had something to offer them in exchange. Perhaps something... valuable? If you wanted to create a business with recurring cashflow, a product/service that provides satisfaction and generates positive...

    Not sure why people are viewing Bitcoin going mainstream as a negative thing. The endgame of Bitcoin is to replace fiat currency - the more widespread it becomes the better. As more consumers exchange fiat for cryptocurrencies, I hope that incentivizes more businesses to start accepting...
