From the article: "Thankfully, one of Google's most popular productivity apps is not turning into a whitespace-infused nightmare hellscape (like say, Google Inbox). The layout is mostly the same as the existing Gmail.com, and, just like today, there are three information density settings to choose from. The new Gmail really does seem fine on the whitespace front."

Great to know!

> The energy here is wasted because Bitcoin does almost nothing of value.

You can also argue that mining gold is a waste of resources because gold does almost nothing of value.

> Yes, there are other uses for Bitcoin. They are miniscule in comparison to its use as an investment product.

What about gold? Aren't its uses minuscule in comparision to its speculative investment value?

The point is: The market decides. One can argue that Bitcoin characteristics (encrypted, pseudo-anonymous, open source, decentralized, global, scalable, deflationary, stateless, etc.) justify its speculative price.

Reminds me of the Sequoia "RIP: Good Times" and all the "tech bubble warning" articles in 2008.
