This sounds great and all, but it involves a lot more screaming than we were willing to stand. My son never seemed to learn, even after months of putting him to bed this way. He would always scream until the point of exhaustion. We would come back after 15 mins., check, then after a half hour, check, after 45 mins,…

We are absolutely taking a “wait and see” approach. I want a Model 3 LIKE CRAZY, but I’m not going to purchase an immature product. Everything about the Model 3 sounds perfect to me, but I’m going to wait and see if it actually delivers before opening my wallet. That’s just reality.

Heard “black hole sun” in the first season and immediately bought the soundtrack. Such an awesome show.

If you try to buy a 30k+ car on $350/week salary, regardless of sales tactics, it’s your own damn fault for the trouble you get in.

Take her to an awesome skeet shooting range.

It’s an “outside the U.S.” thing.

No, that’s not what this is saying. It’s saying you have pain and there’s nothing that can be done about that fact, so don’t complain about it. Just accept that it is reality, that it’s not some harsh thing handed down upon you, and that it is yours. Accept reality and do what you can without feeling like it’s some…

It’s legal because he did exactly what every single business owner in the United States attempts to do: minimize tax exposure. Just because Amazon did so successfully doesn’t mean they’re criminals. They’re just smart. Why pay taxes if you don’t have to? They don’t owe you anything.

Working with other people is like vacationing somewhere with snow: it’s nice to visit for as long as you choose, but ultimately it’s not where you want to be. At least for me. Talking to my wife and children and a few close friends once in a while is plenty thank you very much.

That’s pretty much what we’ve gone to, thanks. It’s what works best for everyone. My boy actually kind of loves it because he does a countdown outside the door lol.

Work-from-homers: How do you all deal with having children around the house? My wife stays home with the kids, and she does her best, but now that I am working from home instead of at an office, I find it extremely difficult to do anything other than hole myself away for 8 hours straight.

Correlation =/= causation...

Thanks!

For Bitcoin specifically, that is somewhat true, but I still believe the arcade example to be a good layman’s terms concept. The “arcade” in the analogy is the underlying utility. E.g.: The “arcade” for bitcoin is merely the ability to conduct decentralized digital transactions. For other altcoins, the “arcade” is a…

No problem.

What happenned over time, and how we ended up in our current situation, is just a coincidence of multiple events. As you can see in my example, bitcoin tokens can be thought of as arcade tokens as an example. Now imagine that even when you took your arcade tokens outside the arcade, they still had value. Why would…

Well, when you cut through all the hype, bitcoin and the other types of digital coins or cryptocurrencies are all just value tokens to enable some sort of underlying technology. Think of going to the arcade as a kid: you would exchange actual cash money US$ for arcade tokens. Outside that arcade, the tokens are…

... and that was probably true at the moment that calculation was made, but that doesn’t really mean anything. The break even point could be $500 tomorrow. There are many variables involved, and for someone who is going to be interested in mining in the first place, the goal is to contribute to, and acquire the…

I understand most of the underlying technology. Is there something specifically you would like to know?

The fact that you hate this process shows a complete and total lack of understanding of how business actually works. No one is competing to make Bezos richer. Let’s do a thought experiment:
