When you learn about kerning you notice it everywhere. Was it not there before? Of course it was you just never noticed because you didn't know it's a "thing" that has a word for it.

Can we agree that you only notice what you can put into concepts? and concepts are words that we made up so it follows that a lack of words to describe something will generally make it go unnoticed.

I understand no one likes change, especially businesses. But complaining and trying blame and shame your audience because your business model is no longer viable is laughable. It is on THEM to figure what is next for journalism.

That's not to say their point is not perfectly valid about fake news, it is.

It's that the attitude of telling us it's our fault and we should change our ways is already a losing mindset.

Agreed, glad to see Steem get some love on here.

I like the idea, I think it's much needed. Would maybe position this as a productized service, to further differentiate from other agencies.

Worth saying if you actually do spend a couple of hours setting it up and disable updates it works great.

Been using a hackintosh for work for 4+ years.

It is the basis of that, not sure why would anyone downvote you.

It was implied in the comment I was replying to.

Yes, the idea being that something that is constant and is aware of everything is more real than anything that is subject to change and is observable.

How can you actually know what is lost when you die?

Some might say the real you is the one which is aware of all the other ones.

I think part of the issue might be that there is no "real meaning", we all make it up individually in our heads.

Weird how you can judge someone's character based on a few tweets.

> Have you tried not spending three decades committing petty crimes "all over the US?"

Way to be constructive bro.

What is the point of having just Maths if it doesn't help in the actual understanding of the world?

I hope you're joking

Joe Rogan fan right there.

One thing is sure, if you're hanging on to the past you'll always lose in the end.

That's not to say blockchain is the be all and end all, but constantly hunting for arguments why something will never work , is not only terribly boring, but IMO the most counterproductive way to look at anything.

Thanks, that's what I was trying to say lol.

I don't think anyone is arguing that there aren't any other factors or that this justifies not helping less fortunate people.

I understand and sympathise with that example. But surely you agree that not all lines of work can be equally compensated.

That doesn't mean that hard work is ineffective and a lie though?

I don't see how job opportunities in any field reflect on whether or not hard work is effective?

Yeah, but that doesn't mean that "work hard and you'll succeed"is a lie.

I don't think anyone is saying they are irrelevant, nothing is black and white. For practical purposes however, hard work does lead to success.

Why is it a lie? Do you disagree that hard work leads to success, within limits?

Agree with the sentiment, but there is a valid point to be made about the addictive qualities of sugar vs cocaine.

Science right there.

Alternatively, you can regularly post content you are passionate about and over time build a community of people who are genuinely interested in what you have to say and will gladly support you.

It amazes me how skilled we are in pointing out what is wrong with something.

Time for Steemit and D.tube

I don't think it's a half full / half empty thing. It's a long-term or short-term thing.

Dehghan et al. (2017)) found that carbohydrate intake was associated with increased total mortality. By contrast, any (saturated/monounsaturated/polyunsaturated) type of dietary fat reduced the likelihood of dying.
