wow nice project, do you need a designer?
Why half in taxes? Isn't this a capital gain? So 15-25% fed cap gain plus about 10% California income (if even applicable)

The parent comment says nothing about the validity of "it being a currency"..this is an argument the child brings up just to Bitcoin hate. And it's a 'beat the drum' comment, same as the "it's like tulips/.com" that the parent is tired of hearing.

And, it's not the point of every cryptocoin to be a currency, whatever may be your definition of a currency.

This forum is so dumb now.

This has nothing to do with the parent.
Re:Bitcoin Gets Close to $5,000 on Friday September 01, 2017 @09:42PM (#15153706)
It's funny how thick HNers are about Bitcoin. I believe it's evidence of the sort of passive conservatism of the tech community. Bitcoin is some utopian shit, the decentralized technology dream that has a ton of traction, yet many of you just can't seem to get behind it. Is it because YC is an ultra capitalistic investment fund and Bitcoin is just too anarchist for its fanboys?

For all the people out there saying, "I cant find a use case", my question to you is, have you ever used it?!

If you have, did you notice that there wasn't a middleman taking a cut when you sent the money? I mean, do you have any fucking idea how much money businesses pay to the credit card companies?

Get on board guys.

>I just have a very hard time seeing how it's actually useful

Why is it so hard to see?

Whenever you send money somewhere electronically, a middleman takes a cut. With Bitcoin there is no middleman.

It's that easy.

can we please have a bitcoin thread that doesn't mention the stupid tulips
Re:SoundCloud's Collapse on Sunday July 30, 2017 @01:06PM (#14886838)
Yes. Someone please build this. Message me if you need a designer.
Re:SoundCloud's Collapse on Sunday July 30, 2017 @12:59PM (#14886799)
yes.
Useless feature imo. SC was better without it (noticeably faster load times). How much server cost do they save if they eliminate comments?

Someone submitted the link and others upvoted it.
Re:Ask HN: What are you working on? on Tuesday April 04, 2017 @11:38AM (#14033812)
This seems cool! If you'd like some design/growth help, I may be the right guy for that. My email is in my profile.
It does not help you get a job, ie survive. In my experience companies are not looking for unicorns, they want you to be very good at a specific thing (startups under 5 people are maybe the exception).
Re:Airbnb expands to experiences on Thursday November 17, 2016 @06:40PM (#12982902)
Airbnb has tried to do "experiences" so many times I've lost count.

Here's the one where they partnered with Vayable, all the way back in 2011:

I would be willing to donate (a small amount) for these expenses. If it comes together, please put me in any mailing lists or message me directly.
or about a minute of revenue
As a lifelong Adobe user, I'd rather hear that Adobe is doing this kind of work at a higher level, that is, studying how users interact with all of their apps as a whole.

Instead of adding art boards to Photoshop, I'd rather see art boards in Illustrator integrated better with PS. And are the art boards in AI still exporting at non-specified dimensions (a very common bug for years)? Fix what is broken before adding features to PS that are already in AI.

Can anyone explain to me why copy/paste tools are different between AI/PS? Just make them the same!

Re:Ask HN: Why is it so hard to find a business partner? on Tuesday March 22, 2016 @02:57PM (#11339004)
Not leaving a way to contact you in your profile isn't helping. Contact me: I'm available and I'll at least hear your idea and give you a straight answer.

For sale, or looking for a non-technical business/growth partner to work on it part-time with me.

Ask HN: Do you have a side project you want to sell?

A similar thread was posted ~1 year ago by gillis and a year before by illdave. I think it's time for 2015s version.If you have any side projects that you've built and that you no longer have time for, list them here and let's see if others want to buy it from you.
