  • I still really miss Google Hangouts. It was integrated with Gmail as a web interface. The web and mobile app synced perfectly. You could use SMS/MMS, or chat, seamlessly in the same interface. Contacts worked correctly. SMS and chat history saved to Gmail so all the text was searchable. It was AMAZING and Google killed it for no reason, only to later replace it with inferior options.

    Edit: oh yeah, you could also make phone calls, or group voice and video calls using the same app/web interface.


  • One person can do something, but one person can’t do everything. If you are already running a farm co-op, leading a union, or so on, you simply don’t have the time to address the hundred other things you can see in the news in a single day. The point still stands, you can’t control everything, so even if you are making change on one or two points, you have to avoid being angry about the hundred other things you cannot.






  • There are some fringe benefits for blockchain but massive issues with normal human issues like:

    • Scams/theft: person has the wallet lost through scam or left, how do you invalidate the lost credentials or tickets.

    • Wallet loss: loss through any number of means: fire, incompetence, computer being destroyed, loss of account to cloud backup etc

    • Issuer need to invalidate: if tickets/credentials were purchased by fraud or an issue occurs where they need to invalidate

    How does blockchain handle these common situations?
