12 years ago today, the Internet’s own boy left us. It’s wild to think that Aaron Swartz was aggressively prosecuted for scraping JSTOR articles.
Meanwhile huge companies routinely scrape the public internet and sell it for $20/month and all is well.
Aaron helped create RSS, Creative Commons, Markdown and a little site called Reddit - all by the age of 26.
All he wanted was free and open access to information.
Really makes you wonder what he'd have accomplished if he was still with us today.
@Zeerabets@lookonchain In shitcoin mining ages I was doing this all the time to test. Most of the times i initiated full amout tx, I regret because of tx fee stuck or bad wallet make/version/peers.
"Bitcoin" projected on the Seat of the ECB in Frankfurt. Another memorable moment in monetary history. Will be avoided by TV news in Europe. Still happened. 🦇
@richiela Remember long ago, when i was telling friends to reg in bitrex and explaining how things work without using single referal link in my life. Pure onboarding. Thanks for bringing thoughts where the focus should be.
This is the shadow form of "zero rating." FB has a huge advantage when so many devices ship w/ settings that enable FB, but break Signal.
Right now if you install Signal on a common phone in Africa, you prob won't receive messages. Messenger/WA are on an allow list and work fine
Tether & @Bitfinex have reached a settlement with @NewYorkStateAG. After 2.5 years and 2.5M pages of info shared, we admit to no wrongdoing and will pay US$18.5M to resolve this matter. 1/3
The long-awaited Perkins Coie whitepaper is now available!

Living in the moment while we can 'cause you never know
Just take the energy you got baby and let it go!
Happy ATH ! ! !
this is not a shill. It is *required for whitelisting. Very unfair @TheMahaDAO. There are other polite way to filter fake accounts. Will delete this tweet as soon as whitelisting ends.
1/ Why I won't be staking ETH at launch, a thread...
#Ethereum#eth2
Like many of you, I am excited for ETH2, the Beacon Chain, Phase 0, and everything that will come after.
I have participated in Onyx, Witti, Altona, and Medalla test networks.
I tried Prysm and Lighthouse.
Collaboration of the smartest dev and the smartest scheme maker in the room. I like how these guys move, but the most cool crypto feeling is that, these people are in the space for profit generated by high efficient code, not by volume of fake news or hype. thnx for role mode!
Trust no one, everything is allowed.
Calculate risk. Don't blame others.
Always you are the one who make decision and take risk.
If there is erro in the events other calculators are not to blame, you should fix yours according to ENV.
