Any computer or laptop can stake. Your computer will need to be online 24/7 to stake. You will need to download an Ethereum 2.0 wallet when it releases and start staking through the UI. 6 or so of these are being built and you can chec

It doesn't really push back though because it doesn't make sense. Phrases are powerful because they are compressed versions of larger truths. This new version doesn't work as a phrase like the one it is built from.

> The early bird may get the worm, but the early worm gets eaten. This makes no sense. All worms get eaten randomly because all worms have to surface at the same time. Earliness and lateness don't change the chance you will be eaten

You can track a swarm microsat. The government could even help them make sure they orbited correctly and wouldn't hit the ISS. That's what good governance is. Bad governance is telling everyone no you can't do something unles

P2P messaging apps have a hard time with group messages because you have to have someone online to relay messages at all times. Group chats really have to have a shared storage medium to work.

Messengers need someone to host and maintain the servers. That requires a monetization model and requires someone to act as a central figure. That figure (like Facebook) then has to either moderate the content or try to make a case of not

This problem is only going to grow in the future. You can't control or reliably censor information on a free and open internet. The only way to ensure that nothing "bad" happens on the internet is to completely lock it down a

Organizational accounts have a different storage plan they can use that's more suited to their needs. This is only for personal accounts. And no, you don't have a personal account, which hopefully you knew 5 years ago when that ha

IOHK (Cardano) has proven that PoS is just as safe as PoW with actual mathematical proofs that are peer reviewed by actual cryptography professors. This is actually a big step forward as we now have trust that there's a system that act

It's not a politically correct thing to say but most people aren't smart enough to work in tech. It's a fairly top tier field unless you're doing something really, really basic.

Do you have any basis for this claim? The Windows kernel is very efficient and well designed and doesn't have any more overhead than other kernels out there as far as I'm aware. This is also the kind of machine that won't be

The Internet Archive is definitely up there with Wikipedia as one of mankind's greatest treasures. It really should be globally funded and endowed for the foreseeable future.

So just kill the free and open internet and bring back the walled garden model of the mid 90s where you paid for website packages like you did for cable TV? That's not a future I want to live in. Europe is playing a dangerous game with

In the future we will have even more abundant resources so I'm not sure they care that we like to invent good dipping sauces.

Like most features this has existed on other platforms like Android TV way before Apple TV. The parent comment was actually talking about paying for one service that has everything I think not just a shortcut to each disparate service.

Where do you live? I'm from the US and here it's very easy to find 100% juice as that's the most advertised kind and is on the "prime shelf" at the store. It's usually printed in a central spot on the label nea

It takes 3-6 apples to make a glass of apple juice. It's easy to drink a glass of apple juice and want another but nobody is going to eat 3-6 apples. That's a key difference.

When I see a resume of someone who has had 8 jobs in 3 years I immediately think "liability". You won't deeply learn anything. You won't be able to think long term. I won't be able to give you an important project b

Actually this has been a big problem in the cryptocurrency space. It's entirely too onerous to comply with the rather extreme regulations in the finance space so exchanges had to ignore them for the longest time. Some exchanges even ha

Yes. Intent matters. The website is showing that they do not want EU visitors as they don't want to deal with the high cost of GDPR. If an EU visitor manages to bypass this restriction in some way like a VPN then they lose their EU pro

Intent matters. The website clearly indicates that they do not want to serve EU users. EU law does not apply to them unless they have a physical presence in the EU. It's trivial for end users to bypass any restriction through technical
