StackOverflow looking to get more backlinks from GitHub/GitLab :)

No new ideas. Another megaphone to the common ideologies that go against Web3 that are so widespread as deprived of critical reasoning.

Hacker community used to be about more than this. Trying to write an apparently neutral point of view with a condescending tone that carries a lot of negative weight towards a tech subject reeks of mold.

Thanks daddy. Thanks school system. Thanks commonly accepted society roles.

Now let me tinker with tech... it might just change something in the future.

69% is too sexual for the eyes of puritan Americans.

Why does it say "Id Software"? shouldn't it be Bethesda?

Stopped reading at "We on Google’s People Analytics team..."

sorry my mistake, I had the idea he went full circle when were assigned as the CEO

Does not change the fact that he stepped into the company he co-founded with vesting shares 3 years ago.

Modern C is a nice one, and free to read at

will it work on iOS?

1. Patreon is not direct, involves a 3rd party (patreon.com), requintes registration (besides a bank account/wallet address), and is centralized enough that they can ban you as a creator and as a giver.

2. With nfts the monetization of art is at least one step less controvertial than current approaches and does not exclude or goes against patronage (which is always a valid non-exclusive approach that can coexist with and along nfts)

3. Paper can be stolen, can be destroyed and is not public by default (it stays in your pants pocket while they go to laundry)

4. Good for you ;)

are these counter-arguments to the points I provided?

I fail to see the point here.

Are you speaking for the ones that like to support cool art or against them? are you speaking for the artists? or just generally against NFTs as an alternative tech innovation to a current existing problem?

Sure, here are three to help you getting started:

1. A way to pay the artist directly for the work/effort being made (and against the counter-argument of "you could always buy a painting/physical artwork, its much better and would also be helping the artist" there is the: i don't need another "physical" artwork - my home is already littered as is; i just like to contribute and give money to people that are doing cool things and NFTs allow me to do that in a clear direct way)

2. NFTs bring a simple way to find and monetize/create value around previously hard to value/commoditize art domains like: interactive art, generative art and iterations - around authority sites like hic et nunc et al (now i can for the first time peruse common places that serve NFTs and fund/incentivize certain art styles that were previously out of the generalist/mainstream art market - previously how would you pay for a generative art and immediately have the creator reach you out for a conversation over its style and substance?)

3. An immutable receipt that i paid for it (which can be anonymous, but still it is good to have)

here is a bonus point that I personally don't find it as cool, but still worth a mention:

4. There is a whole after-market movement for these immutable receipts, look for it, people are cool, friendly and creating new amazing things with an incentive that is stronger than ever to produce new digital trendy objects (some you can even interact with, some might change whenever they get accessed, some might even freely stop existing at some point in time... its crazy ahah)

hope this helped in any way

Like many I am willing to buy NFTs and enjoy their many benefits.

Steam will likely try to capitalize on it when it becomes an even bigger market by either introducing their own marketplace or token or something else.

Where does taking the code from Bethesda falls into that?

it is not static since it is constantly hacking your brains

there goes the scrum daily/weekly...

you forgot the one where you go like this

- "you are right, i completely forgot about that. thank you for catching this, i am changing the code and asking you to review it again after the fix."

nice one, however shouldn't good old for loops be done in ALGOL instead?

Regarding Rust, Amazon has done way more good than harm. They helped in solidifying Rust as a professional language with good wages.

Developers come and go, it is unreasonable to strike the big company if the future of the language is dependent on the fact that a couple of "core" devs work at it and someone is writing articles about this and that that involves Rust.

Other languages have been through worse and survived, why not Rust?
