100%. I think most university degrees are for the social aspect, which is not to be ignored

Many courses are free and books can be purchased outside of university

Individual financial cost has nothing to do with my comment

“College is needed” comments are so weird in a field that can be done on an island with a solar battery. CS isn’t medicine or engineering, and the field is so young that requiring a “formal education” most likely will have negative effects of teaching poor practices that are not up to date

Very good point, it might lead to more tribalism if kept too small

This sounds cool. Why not make it 150 people per group max, since we can only have roughly 150 good human connections at any given time

Good luck!

Thanks for sharing cool things on Lemmy

Traceability might be nice since the black market is estimated around 20T USD. Cuts out bad actors which means no fraud, and no hidden inflation since we can see the quantity compared to USD which the Federal Reserve doesn’t even know

I think the idea of cryptocurrency is funny, since it’s just “I’m not playing your make believe money anymore, so we’ll pay our own make believe money since you are obviously rigging the system”. Kinda makes sense if adoption keeps up and the planet isn’t on fire

Probably not encrypted, deprecated process

Totally. Get a PSU? Or use solar with a PSU. Or batteries. Always a mitigation for the mitigation lol

Well, if it’s not on a WiFi network, it’ll be fine. CCTV is a great example of this. Just wire up some cameras, encrypt the harddrive and put it somewhere difficult to get to. Only way to disable all cameras at once would be an EMP. There are kits for a few hundred $ and all the data stays local
