In the sense "will you still find new job listings in a decade if you learn it now", then I would say highly likely. In the case its not, the path from React to the Next Big Thing™ will be very publicised and you'll be drowning in blog posts describing the differences.

The parties in a dispute like that are likely to settle out of court, in a somewhat reasonable manner, instead of blindly applying the law until a judge automaton reaches a decision following the letter of the law.

With a smart contract, there can be no negotiation and attempt at reconciliation. The price here will never recover from $0, so at a single point in time $248,000 was transferred from bag holders to beneficiaries.

No no no, bitcoin is perfectly configured to incentivise technological leaps in renewable energy that increase availability, without itself consuming the entire benefit it generates. See also ASIC production, where bitcoin is also affecting the market in the best way you could imagine, and all the hardware is integrated in a circular chain of consumption.

This comment was triggered by the essay “The Story of a Generation in Seven Scams” by Jia Tolentino in the book Trick Mirror, the essay also being available in audio form online. So the scam here was to get you to google that book, I wonder if my scam will convert anyone?

When reading comments like this, which are good-natured, and a natural response, do you ever think “wouldn’t be great if we as humans had more trust built into our systems, and people actually making a best-effort attempt at honouring that trust”? Instead of everything being a scam until proven otherwise, and even then the scam is probably just one level deeper in what triggered the interest in that product in the first place.

I'm surprised that they are not providing PAdES signatures here at the same time, do you think this is a direction they will be moving in?

Also surprised they are not leaning more heavily into the existing identity solutions in the countries they are already operating in, like the Netherlands and the Nordics. Maybe hard to differantiate from existing competitors?

What's wrong with the payment process in your country? Where I am it's as easy as paying any invoice I get from a credit card company or I can by with debit card.

Also in my country, in Europe, Klarna is mentioned more and more in news articles about consumer debt and predatory lending, so I think their market share among people who keep credit card balances is increasing. They have stopped or kept pending unusually large purchases by me pending a credit check, but they could probably do a lot more to not get a reputation as lumped together with the most predatory consumer loan banks.

Well, one part of the work-life balance is also access to interesting work and opportunities, and a mature market that makes it easy to switch between companies when you want to or need to.

In that way, I think it makes sense to focus on some of the largest job markets, as they explain under "Methodology":

> After reviewing hundreds of global metropolises, a shortlist of 50 of in-demand cities with sufficient, reliable, and relevant datasets were selected. This included cities known for attracting professionals and families for their work opportunities and diverse lifestyle offerings.

I think democratising asset investments is a worthwhile goal. The gamifying and the fact that RobinHood makes it money from trades does lead to some strained incentives, where most people would probably be better of maximising their tax advantaged pension contributions or setting or forgetting an index fund savings plan. However, I think also direct access to small and free to stock picks is generally good, so hopefully RobinHood is able to thread the needle, and make some money also when their customers make money.

They aren’t changing anything, your AirPods will still be using the same AAC codec it did when you first bought them.

Taking a step back from watching their every move or keynote is one way to keep being happy with your device, and you’ll probably find it does last years.

I don’t expect people to do anything, I’m just trying to give perspective as to why someone might upvote an article they enjoyed.
