This whole paper was great. It starts heavy on the humor but then also delivers just enough actual cryptographic protocol to make the lead-up worth it. This bit at the end was my favorite: As is noted in [1], if Alice simply suggests to

This is a fantastic talk, thanks so much for posting it. The thesis was both novel and interesting to me as a heavy Ruby user. I'll buy you a drink if you're ever in SF.

I'm the guy that runs CoderPad, and I agree with your assessment. We believe our entry level pricing to be actually rather cheap, and our customers generally agree.

Yup! If you're interested in a low-effort way to influence the local market, please consider voting by June 7th: http://www.sfyimby.org . Fun fact: some of you may have seen us canvassing at tech bus stops in SF.

Do good engineers take their salary entirely in equity? In both cases, despite high payoffs, there is extreme variability in outcome. Running a serious lawsuit is very expensive.

Thanks for that. Can you clarify disconnect behavior in general? Do subscribed changesets resume if your internet blips? Also, there doesn't seem to be a callback arg in Collection#store: http://horizon.io/api/coll

Hey Slava. Interesting stuff - two questions: 1. Do you have something analogous to https://www.firebase.com/docs/web/api/ondisconnect ? Real-time apps often have some manner of presence indicator. Firebase al

> you die at every femtosecond of living This is an interesting theory that has its roots in solipsism: the belief the world vanishes the moment you close your eyes. The fact of the matter is that it (and solipsism) just don't seem

I admire your optimism, but statements like "Who wouldn't want X?" are inherently naive. When you ask people if they'd want X, they generally answer yes. What matters is what people will actually do , and I don't t

Not to bash, but the page you linked is classic Docker - it says literally nothing about what "Docker Cloud" is. "BUILD SHIP & RUN, ANY APP, ANYWHERE" is the slogan they repeat everywhere, including here, and it me

A few things to consider when evaluating the morality of this leak: 1. I can assure you that the majority of people purchasing services from Mossack Fonseca are not "completely innocent". 2. There is firm precedent for the legalit

I met geohot at a starcraft tournament at Facebook probably like four years ago. I turned around and saw his employee badge and exclaimed "You're geohot!" He then proceeded to tell me about his killer idea for a timeless, rep

I mean, honestly, $400/mo is table stakes too, if you're actually using a clustered database in production for anything serious. I think HN in general is being a bit too cynical here. This is an OSS company trying to find a sustai

Honestly, I'd consider five entrenched players with frequent ups and downs to be the signs of a fairly competitive industry. Indeed, each of the five seems to offer roughly comparable products to at least two of the other four players,

I love the ABC Conjecture, it's so romantic: a statement about the fundamental relationship of addition,, multiplication, and factorization. I really hope they crack it in a way that I can understand before I die.

While this is certainly an impressive demonstration of the WebGL platform, I find the game itself to be not much more than that. Lots of potential, though!

Solomon, I gave a talk at lunch at your company about this very topic, but I think you weren't there, so you missed it. Ask avinson for a link to it. I think it was saved on your BlueJeans system.
