Any suggested readings on decentralized finance? I've circled the topic a bit but didn't find an introduction to fire my imagination.


Check out How to DeFi and Part time Larry on YouTube.


Thanks for the tip.

Enjoyed reading your article. It's honest and your rationale is well laid out.


thank you!


Avi Loeb's technical work is commendable but I'm left wondering if some of the reasoning in this article counts for thoughtful contemplation.

>"We may be a phenomenon as uninteresting to them as ants are to us; after all, when we’re walking down the sidewalk we rarely if ever examine every ant along our path." Is it helpful to ascribe human-like motives to an alien species? Projecting our thought patterns on an alien species will not get us anywhere. There could be numerous reasons or no reason in particular why an alien lifeform might visit us: they are cataloging lifeforms, they are interested in 'ants' like EO Wilson, they might want to harvest resources on our planet, etc.

> "But better yet, we could get in touch with Proxima b and entice the locals to visit and share a water-based drink with us." There's humor mixed in this statement, so I'm not sure if Avi Loeb is being entirely serious. I take the opposite stand of "don't broadcast our presence to aliens". It's common sense that if you're out in the wild, you don't draw attention to yourself.

Funny this blog in support of caffeine comes out when I'm two weeks into kicking my coffee habit. Are people going caffeine-free en masse?

In my case, I paid more attention to what I was consuming and coffee seemed like a good thing to drop.

From the author's search result and a quick test I ran, it appears that the specific problem here is Google doesn't seem to "understand" Reddit. If it did, search results would be based on relevancy of comments on the Reddit page, posted in the specified timeframe.

If a website attempts to record screen, Chrome will pop up a modal dialog asking user to select if they want to record entire desktop, application window or tab. The user has to opt in every time before any screen recording takes place.


Outklip is a Chrome extension with a few additions compared to QuickTime:

* It lets you record camera along with screen, so you can be seen in the video. Gives videos a personal touch.

* Videos on Outklip are automatically uploaded to cloud storage, which lets you share them via a link instantly after recording. Saves you the step of uploading the video to gdrive, dropbox, etc. before sharing. The video creator can see who viewed and when.

* An easy to use video editor, which lets you add text labels, remove parts of video, crop region of video, convert to gif, etc.

* A YouTube integration that lets you post videos quickly and easily.

One thing Outklip lacks is the ability to record a selected portion of the screen, which Quicktime supports.

Hope this helps.


On this note does anybody happen to know an alternative to https://recordit.co? It used to be a minimalistic screen recorder, where you'd select a selected area of the screen and it would automatically upload it to a url, both as a video or animated gif.
