Sparrow is a beloved desktop wallet powered by JavaFX. A very well-done interview that covers a number of interesting topics in security, UX, and software development along with an introduction to Bitcoin transaction details using the Sparrow UI.

Let them wed There is no compelling reason to exclude homosexual couples from marriage, and several compelling reasons to include them

I still remember reading and being convinced it was the right thing to do by this 1996 article: www.economist.com/news/1996/01...

The really remarkable thing is that with his tariffs, Trump has imposed the largest tax increase U.S. history.

I would say that the ones who’ve actually read (and understood) Hayek, or even “I, Pencil”, have not fallen for the strongman argument.
