   I think it will be really interesting in a few years when people start some in-depth analysis about the bitcoin blockchain(though some is going on today). If Bitcoin hits mainstream adoption it may be the first time ever someone can run an

   are you talking about "ingress" the google game? You are probably talking about physical security but if not, I would love to hear more about what this monitor would do for you to monitor the game

   I have always found this part of Bitcoin interesting, but I am having a hard time wrapping my head around how this would be used. I would love to see a blog post detailing how to implement a service (escrow or something) annotated with cod

   I read about Bitcoin in June 2011 and built a miner using two ATI 5830s shortly after. It ran at ~550 megahashes and cost a total of $450.00 to build using newegg. I live in an area with free power in Tokyo and let the machine run for ~2 y

   I am a distance runner and for years after I graduated running was my time to work through daily issues and contemplate project ideas and solutions to the harder problems that take some time to think through. It was amazing how an half hour

    I have been mining since June 2011. Running two ATI 5830's for about 550 mhashes/sec on a cheap motherboard with a cheap processor and barely any ram. All admin is done with SSH, only cords going in are network and power. Been running bas

    I would read the core documentation (maybe takes 4 hours), then find a project you to do in node and do a lot of googling on ways to get certain aspects done. It is an unstructured way to learn and can be slightly inefficient since you wil

    as someone who has been mining since mid 2011 on a 450 dollar PC...this would make me very happy. I have already done very well on that investment.

    Hyperion Cantos by Dan Simmons for a great audiobook experience. I do mean experience, the word epic is thrown around a lot but Hyperion is worlds above any Sci Fi I have read. The narration is excellent in all 4. http://www.audible.com/

    I think OP may be confused that a lot of CS shouldn't be programming language specific. I haven't touched a lot of the languages I learned in college, but knowing specific patterns, data structures, algorithms, control flow, etc and how th

    I was thinking about this the other day when I was out for a run. BitCoin seems to have an implementation that works and is secure, but people donate a large ammount of computational power to validate that data. I look forward to reading

    For only 25 dollars i'd love to have one as mpd client connected to a drive with all my music. It would be fun to have a portable computer and script an interface accessible for parties where people can cue up music on their smartphones.
