While on leave, I'm slowly working through a very long list of things to read (and watch). Here's something I've been sitting on for a while: Can We Mitigate Cryptocurrencies’ Externalities? (here's a video lecture version)

It is excellent, if very technical and maybe somewhat dry. In case you want to save time: the answer is no.

I am a few years late to the party, but this week I found out about the M+DEV indie game dev conference in Madison, Wisconsin. Madison has a surprisingly active game dev scene and I’m hoping to check it out later this year!
