Well, people complain about Bitcoin to kill our climate but on the other hand have no problems to buy new monitors when it's not necessary ...

Well, knowing capacitors to be a common culprit with broken monitors might inspire the non-electronics-savvy to go to a repair shop instead of shopping for a new monitor. And save money and the environment I might add.

Would be cool if one could opt out of the data collection they do by paying them actual money. In the beginning, WhatsApp charged a couple of dollars a year. I would be willing to pay a couple of ten dollars a year for their service to obta

Primers (DNA pieces that „select“ the right DNA sequence to be amplified) can sometimes attach randomly on DNA and hence make PCR copy/amplify the wrong DNA. Especially, if the primer’s got bad (partially degraded for example). If you

But I’d argue learning basic Emacs key bindings gives you the benefit of becoming better on any Linux terminal. Going through the tutorial does not take much time. I think the author is right about the arcane terminology („meta key“, „buffe

Because maintaining web sites and services cost money. And making money on the web is still non-trivial. That’s because the only way to make money is either by the subscription model or by the add revenue model. Since nobody likes to pay fo

I really hate that about Reddit. I liked browsing discussions on my phone occasionally but the web page kept nagging me into using the app instead. So finally I installed it. But now when googling for information and finding Reddit boards a

If you read the article you would have learned that the Apple store staff was trying to convince her into buying a new iPhone instead. They told her they would need to swap the iPhone‘s mainboard.

Ethereum contracts are not 100% immutable. They need to maintain state like a token‘s balance. That’s why Ethereum‘s VM supports contract variables. You can also use variables to store addresses to other contracts and call external methods

This is plain silly. Even centralized payment settlement systems do depend on thousands of lines of closed source code that contain bugs. Banking backends have bugs. Cars have bugs. Even buildings may have fuck ups that need to be dealt wit

If it „did very well“ is, of course, a matter of your political views but Merkel’s coalition of the largest center right (CDU) und center left party (SPD) is exactly the reason why the political fringe on both ends of the spectrum has been

That’s interesting: Nikkei‘s bad long term performance is due to Japan‘s bad economic policies in the last three decades. Many years of quantitative easing have given rise to a high public debt, a large unemployment rate and an uncompetitiv
