How can you tell someone is wrong in Programming?
Wrong outputs are checked by tests and you could do time studies.
However that's after-the-fact. With abstraction there isn't a correct answer from code alone (outside possibly nested loops)
Like what? I'm given a beefy computer to do my DS work.
Maybe I'm in my own bubble but does TF have small scale uses where you would run it on a laptop?
I have one to bring up "for loops".
I think they are infinitely worse than while loops. (I ran into this specifically with Pandas dataframes/series)
You save 1 or 2 lines and have ambiguity on wherever "each" is.
Maybe static typing solves this, but I've decided I hate syntax sugar and dynamic typing.
Who is the demographic for this? Professionals will be using multithreading and/or multiple computers for these problems.
Maybe college kids?
This is how I use coinbase. I have some Bitcoin for free and instant payments.
I'm not saying where most of my Bitcoin is.
No idea why you are downvoted.
Although the term is "inflation hedged asset"
I liked it when I went to Europe. I ran out of Euros and got some from a Bitcoin ATM at a university for less than the bank fee.
This was a few years ago, fees are probably higher now... Which negates your insistence that the technology is the value.
I think many of us have tried our best to teach people about "shitcoins", but the greed and fantasy of riches has caused lots of people to buy Bitcoin copypastes.
The most recent round of dissapointment comes from blockchains being too expensive to use as write only databases, yet people using it for trivial means like crypto kitties.
I predict the next issue will again be unrelated to Bitcoin, but rather non POW coins getting hacked.
