   Yes, good approach. It would be very cool to build this from real hardware instead of an VM, now that we have Arduinos and RPI's.

   Are we talking about BTC or liberty reserve? The content and format of the article are very confusing. I find people are to not aware about what the possibility of anon tx entails when they argue the counterpoint. Of course the first people

   P.S.: TN is one of the most important thinkers of the 20th century. Perhaps not top10, but definitely top50, after Einstein, Freud, Chomsky, etc. He talked about personal computing before personal computers. He invented (i.e. thought of) Hy

   I very much agree. I find it amazing that he does not get more credit. What is very unfortunate is that Ted never took the time to learn more about programming languages. For example file systems are there for a reason and only now, with al

   Thanks for pointing that out. My understanding of standard was that it is something which is agreed upon and then used. But now this standard is some kind of irreversible pre-standard. More on this is going with web-components: https://gro

    HTML5 is a fixed standard - I assume you mean something else by that. the lines between OS/VM/browser are blurring more and more. I find what Rich Hickey is saying really interesting. to me the next great step is dynamic computing. so the s

    Amazingly this article doesn't mention Immanuel Kant. If you read the autobiographical notes, Kant is the first name that appears. And from there it is quite a different step to the theory of relativity.

    ATTENTION GRABBING. Cypherpunks != mathematicians. I find it very hard to believe that a mathematician who writes 500 page papers invents Bitcoin on the side. Mathematicians of this style live in their own world.
