Well, there's also the bit about not having to deal with a long list of fees and onerous requirements like many states have, when all you're trying to do is start a business, build a product and hopefully find some paying customers.

I find it works very well, so basically everything seems right. Use it for nine accounts concurrently. Rarely have any issues.

tl;dr Uninformed rant about the evils of blockchain and crypto-related endeavors

No nuanced analysis of an emergent technology and its growing pains and no mention at all of the benefits of decentralization.

Oh, and the author also fails to point out that there are NFTs which go beyond simply representing ownership. They are used for unlocking premium content, making game assets portable across games, acting as a proxy for real-world assets and many other use cases not yet as high profile as art and sports NFTs.

One oft-overlooked aspect of NFTs is their scarcity and authenticity by virtue of license rights. For instance, NBATopShot moments are desirable because they are licensed by the NBA. So if you were to clone great basketball moments and create an alternate, it would neither be authentic nor legal.

Hal's post was so inspiring – thank you for sharing.

The bit about having to finish the documentation was particularly noteworthy. Even when writing code laboriously through eye moment, Hal didn't lose focus of the importance of documentation.

"div soup" – I like that.

The present-day CSS frameworks use "class soup."

For example, tailwind (which I like):

  <button class="bg-teal-500 hover:bg-teal-600 focus:outline-none focus:shadow-outline">

I like what you have done with the site — very simple and easy to check out the tips. I subscribed.

I agree with that 100% — if it isn't fun, it's work. And if you build enough knowledge about how CSS works in general, when it comes to implementing specific layout or responsive design techniques you have a good understanding of the basics to build upon.

I have 16 GSuite accounts setup and have never had this issue in Mail. Even if my account login fails or the server is unreachable, the app does not automatically come to the foreground. I don't use full screen or spaces though (I prefer Moom) so maybe that's why I have never seen the issue.
