Because it's an intentionally obtuse Ponzi scheme. You can stake Terra on Anchor protocol which was advertised as up to 20% yoy return for lending your Terra. This creates demand for Terra, which in turn creates demand for Luna, as you

I consider myself crypto sceptic. Sceptic in the sense that a community behind a technology should be eager to label flawed projects and claims as such, and seek to improve. In crypto/web3 a diverse landscape of projects gets thrown in

Linking to google search is not a source. On the first google page, I see zero cases of a foreign citizen getting jailed in Germany for this kind of offense. Detained and fined != in prison.

I could also not do any of that and trust an authority to provide that service for me. Society encourages specialization and most people will not start to self-host for some idealistic reasons that they might not even share. Unless self-hos

I can't go without EurKey [1] at this point. It's the US qwerty layout, but AltGr can be used to type pretty much all Western European characters, e.g. ö==AltGr+o. It's available on most linux distros out-of-the-box! I can st

To shed some light: DisplayPort 2.0 supports up to 77.37 Gbit/s of bandwidth. Wikipedia's DisplayPort article has excellent tables about bandwidths of display formats: HDR 5K@120hz (57 Gbit/s) is totally possible with DP 2.0.

That's a common misunderstanding. DisplayPort MST allows multiple display streams to be multiplexed onto a single DP link. So you are still bound by the bandwidth of a DP connection (25.92 Gbit/s for HBR3). The 5K Ultrafine (wh

These Rust vs C comparison often get fixated on the, somewhat unique, memory safety advantage of Rust. But the proper comparison should be ANY modern language vs. C, cause those remove a heap of other C footguns as well. Most modern languag

When do off-the-shelf NVMe controllers flush their internal DRAM buffer? I presume that happened after a timeout, even if the OS does not issue a NVMe flush command. Does Apple implement the NVMe spec on their controller, i.e. do they indic

Adding a variable decorator/annotation like @Unicode(german,french) would be a good stop-gap. You could only use ASCII characters unless you specified the script that you want to use. One could even set a max limit on how many scripts

Technically even the token isn't directly blockchain-backed. ERC-721 (the base standard) only requires a URI to a metadata file. That file may contain a link to the asset (JPG or whatever). So there are 2 indirections. Hopefully both a

Ok, lets build an equivalent PC. These are prices in Germany (incl. VAT): A 14' Macbook Pro (M1 Max with 32 GPU cores, 32 GB RAM, 512 GB storage) is 3440€. A PC: 5950X (750€), 32GB RAM (150€), Mainboard (130€), WD SN850 500GB (90€). No

This has to be elephant in in room right? There is so much cryptographic potential and none it is realized by most NFTs currently sold. Signing an http link to an existing .jpeg has to be the least imaginative way to implement this concept.

We have a similar system in Germany for local elections. In cities it can get crazy. Here is a a ballot from Frankfurt: https://www.fr.de/bilder/2021/02/11/90200944/25026648-28-lis...

They start "re-districting" if a district deviates from the average population by ±15%. The new districts are proposed by an independent commission and have to be approved by parliament. Here is the proposal for 2021 (pdf warning)

Apparently, this might actually happen this time. ( https://twitter.com/mneunho/status/1435887122649686024 ). If the Bundestag becomes as massive as predicted (800+), the CDU and AfD lists are too short.

An mathematical perspective on this problem is if you consider the German system as a transformation from a FPTP to a Popular Vote system: Let's say you have a FPTP system with a total of D direct seats. To evaluate how distorted the F

MMP by definition guarantees a direct representative for each district. You can think of it as FPTP (per district) and a party-list election at the same time. The FPTP winner in each district gets a guaranteed seat, but the remaining seats

I'm not an expert, but I think you are confused about what 'independent set' means. It's basically 'no vertex pair v,w in the set has a edge (v,w)' So in your loop example, you can take every other vertex in th
