RE: Hive Blog Posting Month (aka #HiveBloPoMo) starts April 1st 2022!

I'll give it another shot... why not? Last attempt was killed by a day long power/Internet outage, but one of these days I'll make it!

RE: Plutocrat Talking (repost)
I watched this "censored" TED talk quite a few years back and admired the man for finally making sense. I've always felt that the "problem" with conventional economists and financial

RE: Two Years of Community Building: Happy 2nd Forkday, Hive!
Hive offers a lot of potential for independent game developers... perhaps not so much for the "big company" developers because we are fast and cheap... so "where's the profit?" But,

Yes, Hive does offer a lot of possibilities, and that's one of its strengths. After all, how do most people use the Internet? They tend to go after their interests. And when there is so much to choose

I'm a "veteran" of the earliest days of so-called "social blogging," dating back to the late 1990's, and Hive embodies much of the spirit and community sense of those early days...

I think a big plus was the fact that the bulk of the the people who "made the move" to the new chain were also the most active and dedicated... and so, everyone drove the community and development

Absolutely! I'm very glad to be here, and to have seen how far we have come already... and there is so much more to come, in the years ahead.

It's a great community to be sure, and there are a lot of exciting new developments happening now that were not here in the beginning.

I'm glad you're here and part of the community now! The energy here during the first couple of months was pretty amazing! It almost felt like we had evacuated the population of a small planet and suddenly

I'm not discounting the possibility, by any means... I'm just not sure it's likely, while I feel that is a substantial chance that some hot layer-two game, Defi or other dApp may suddenly catch on fire

It remains slightly baffling to me that it has already been two years. At the same time, it also feels a little like this was always our home... even the three years before when it was the old chain. Which,

Thank you! My wife is the household "graphics queen" and makes a lot of these kinds of things. I'm not sure what the underlying mechanics are... but I'm inclined to agree that a lot of sameness

RE: Frustrations of Modern Life: Customer Service Phone Calls and Outsourcing!
"The purpose of a corporation is to make profits." It's a phrase from way back that has always stuck in my head. And yet we give corporate entities "personhood" in the eyes of the law...

My wife used to work in a number of different jobs that involved call center like activity, and she felt that the only way she could really do her job well was to buy and bring her own headset to work

RE: Memories of Childhood: “Listen Politely and Maintain a Low Profile!”
Indeed! Coming from Denmark to the US was an interesting experience (and culture shock) in the sense that the "conversational dynamics" of Danish culture are a good bit quieter and more polite
