You are distorting the argument as well.

The correlation between money earned for work and the relative value of that work is rather low. There is no "group, who by and large, has contributed more to the society". There is only "society", nothing exists in a vacuum.

Do you think Steve Jobs could have achieved what he did had there not been any firefighters, primary school teachers, steelworkers, lumberjacks, bus drivers, janitors, soldiers, etc to indirectly or directly support his liberty to achieve his dreams? Do you think factory workers in China have had any impact on Jobs' success? All of them earn less than he did. Are they somehow lazy and deserving of their situation?

The reduction of income/power inequality isn't a bad thing that the poor, lazy masses want in order to get rich doing nothing. Quite the contrary. The point is to raise the standard of living of people doing jobs that, if some part of society had their say, would probably not even be paid. Reducing the wealth gap doesn't mean you can't be successful anymore.

Some people were waiting for the "free money" to come so they could buy "alt coins". Some will be happy to see BTC unchallenged. Price will be a balance of both.

Faxing medical documents.

I was asked to look for an online fax solution. A provider I contacted never called me back. Do you offer subscriptions even if they are not needed? I know next to nothing about faxing - how is the transmitted data secured? Is it?

IME the bigger problem is the tape reader failing and the replacement not being able to read the old tapes...

I have never run syncthing but NUCs are a really nice product, sturdy and easily concealed (you can just screw them under a desk for example). Don't forget to buy memory and a hard drive for your unit though :) It doesn't come with any.

Ah, that's too bad. I want to get the T470 with the i7 7600U and that is my main concern :(

Does the dual core processor bother you? At work I had a mid 2015 MBP with a quad core i7 HQ processor (can't remember which). It was beastly. I'm worried that by getting a dual core I will regret it... What's your impression?

No I'm still working on it. I will definitely consider pushing code to GitHub.

No, my idea is slightly more involved. However I want to use my own data, not other people's, so I spent time setting up a proper DB schema to hold exchange data from various providers. This is not complicated but also not trivial.

I'm jealous. I've been working on almost the exact same thing for a week now.

Really jealous.

And a bit angry! Haha.

    The state of Dash apps is entirely in the front-end

Cool! I develop APIs using Flask so that's good news for me. I want to keep the API as lean as possible. I also try to cache everything I can or simply render stuff into static data if possible. I.e., some data are updated on a regular basis but do not change so rapidly and thus I can just use a Jinja2 template with some {% raw %} blocks to render my jinja2 templates with much less stuff to do, or even static html when I can.

Installing as we speak.

I find that I waste too much time doing "front-end" development - CSS, HTML, JS all slow me down. I am trying this right now! Thank you :)

What is the performance of this when many users at once are consuming the same app/resources?

I don't have a specific answer to your question. What I think would be much more sensible is to design your website without JS, and then sprinkle it here and there.

Ex: Make a request to an API upon page load. Populate tables or whatever you want. Then if JS is enabled, load a script that makes AJAX calls to the API to update the data every x seconds. That way your site gets "enhanced" by JS and is completely usable without it.
