As a Canadian, does the lack of a college degree significantly act as a disadvantage for visa programs such as TN/H1-B ?
In the case of a pressing move to the US, what would be some options for someone with no degree?
There’s also the fact that Ethereum has an almost completely different architecture including block times which affect the frequency of mining, different reward structures, etc.
As far as I know its not necessarily the difference between Bitcoin’s SHA-256 vs Ethereum’s Ethash as much as it is about the architecture itself.
A public blockchain (one where consensus is derived from the masses, or rather an abstraction of the masses like PoW) would have “virtue”, but obviously this has yet to be executed perfectly.
One could say it’s PoA (Proof of Authority) which is basically saying there are specific authorities that choose to validate it. In github, for example, it would be whoever controls the master branch. Of course, this is needlessly complicating things since 99% of software today is this authority model except its implicit.
Although many can see Bitcoin as a scam, I think the South Sea bubble is in a different league altogether. Financial schemes such as introducing crazy loans, coupled with the (essentially) full backing of the government at the time lured in even people like Isaac Newton. Bitcoin in comparison does not even match the hype the South Sea had at the time (nor will it have the power to carry a nation in debt for more than 100 years)
Older models of either Google or Oneplus phones seem fine, I have been using a Nexus 6p with no problems other than some battery life but that's expected given how long it's been used.
It would be nice if grocery stores had a more descriptive/accessible way of searching for and buying items online.
Choosing a recipe, then getting a list of required ingredients - perhaps even delivered automatically to your door - seems like a much more environmentally friendly and practical solution compared to these meal kits.
While not directly comparable, text messages do often see some lag (especially when also considering something like MMS) so it could be said that there is some tolerance for latency.
A more distinctive difference could be the lack of rich media functionalities (sharing GIFs, stickers, etc) that have seen popularity in most messenger apps. This seems to be a middle ground between traditional email (professional) and mobile chat (casual) which could see some use but I can't imagine how user adoption would follow
