My wife and I are big users of Uber Eats. That was until yesterday, July 17th, 2022. Let me explain what happened. We placed an order for some groceries from Spud Shed to be delivered to our apartment. We have done this a number of times. I was at home waiting for the delivery. We […]

Many cryptocurrencies are decentralised networks based on blockchain technology—a distributed ledger enforced by a disparate network of computers. A defining feature of cryptocurrencies is that they are generally not issued by any central authority, rendering them theoretically immune to […]
