Crypto enthusiasts don’t really care or understand decentralization. If you talk to crypto bros you will realize pretty quickly that a lot of them are very very low IQ morons.

I was at an event and met a crypto bro. He tried to explain to a group of us that btc is like moss and the world is the forest. A couple people legitimately “got it” and began to get excited about crypto.

Woah. I love paneer and you just made me want buffalo wing fried paneer bites.

Charity: the voluntary giving of help, typically in the form of money, to those in need.

Sure Jan 😘

Don’t worry mate. I’ve never heard the term but I knew exactly what you meant. I cleaned a url earlier today for Lemmy.

Giving everyone 12k/year doesn’t foster dependency? Dude I make enough to not be homeless but if I had an extra 12k I’d spend it and my lifestyle would inflate. That’s dependency. I depend on it to live a nicer life.

It’s not charity if everyone gets it, it’s levelling the field and making society fairer.

I like ubi a lot.

But I think this statement is not true actually. Removing UBI from the argument for a second, if we are children and we go find easter eggs and afterwards we take eggs from everyone and redistribute it so it’s more equal that’s charity.

Big Bill didn’t get as many eggs because he struggled with childhood diabetes.

Fast Francine got a lot of eggs because per parents put her on ADHD meds and she’s laser focused.

So if we take eggs from Francine and give them to bill now we’re doing charity.

I read a lot about this and I have a friend who does social work with homeless people.

There are so many different situations for homeless people. The ones who can better their situation with $1k/mo are truly down on their luck. They need a boost and they can get back on their feet. These are the “invisible homeless” because they are generally ashamed of their situation.

Then you have crackheads. The money won’t help them.

Then you have the mentally ill. They need medical treatment. Cash is less important.

Finally, you have people who have given up. They don’t want to leave their tent. They’ve been homeless so long it’s their life. They prefer it. It’s familiar. I don’t know how money affects this situation.

1630s gang represent! Back when men were men, knew how to wield a pike, and were willing to give their life for the Spanish crown.

It’s nice that homeless people were able to enjoy a significantly higher quality of life but inflation made my latte $7 so I don’t think we should be giving away free handouts.

I put that /s because you ravenous Lemmy commies can’t read sarcasm even if it was written by Marx. I’m onto you guys 😉

While you may be correct, if you’re on a dogmatic team, work with dogmatic people, or are a part of a dogmatic company, you probably need to avoid duplication. This is because duplicate code is an easy thing for a reviewer to nitpick and reviewing code can sometimes be more about showing off and less about ensuring code quality.

I can’t tell if this career path is worth the stress but you’re describing a lot of money. And it makes me feel like this is worth it.
