I think it's more complex than the report poses it. It's not as if those mentioned entities always have complete control over their mining hardware as those entities include pool miners. I think there's more that prevents an

Have you read what's supposed to be in the letter? Sounds like you're victim blaming to me. I didn't see any SJW politics in that letter but concern that Elon's behavior would reflect badly on the company itself. Which i

Besides Reddit, Crypto Twitter was very vocal. So vocal in fact that the man himself was quite annoyed to constantly being told that UST can't be stable: https://twitter.com/stablekwon/status/14620639625063383

Terra was no stable coin. It was pointed out constantly that it can't work as an algorithmic stable coin. But the shill army was strong. There's an even easier metric for measuring crypto project. The bigger and dumber the shill a

That’s what you get if your priorities clash. One side wants to build cool shit and the other side wants to shit post on Twitter.

I've been using the Trackpoint for almost 20 years now and I never had any problems with it. Not exclusively though, for desktop applications I still use a mouse. But for couch surfing at home I haven't used a mouse in years.

I don't use the trackpad at all so I don't have that problem. :) You could try playing around with the settings in /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/. The file "sensitivity" or "rate&q

You are completely right. I don't know how I missed the needed sort call. It's even more stupid considering that a 4 character hash has only 16*4 => 65536 different strings so there must be a lot of collisions in over a million

GitHub only parses commit hashes with at least 7 characters. IIRC I read somewhere that this was considered a safe lower boundary but my googlefu couldn't come up with a site that shows the math. The chances of a hash collision by chan

You know you can shorten the commit hash? For example https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/9e02977bfa/kernel/dma... I don't find this ugly, it's even very human readable. There's al

It's not a mental disorder. The brain is a very complex machine. It would be quite surprising if every brain would work exactly the same. It's possible what people have talked about here is a pretty normal spectrum between the ext

Being able to summon a voice and having this voice as default (apparently some aren't even able to quiet this inner voice) are different things. Would you also call bullshit if some people told you that they don't see colors the w

I have that too (minus colors, if you actually see colors in your mind, colors in my mind is only an conceptual attribute attached to a thing). How do you articulate speech? With me, the concepts in my mind just turn into vocalized words. I

Deducing language preferences by the country TLD is just plain wrong. Especially in a country where about 25% of the population is from abroad. My knowledge of French is basically non existent so showing stuff that is only available in Fren

I'm partial on that. I sometimes want the trailer and sometimes don't want it. But with the mute button this is easy mitigated. The mute button is one of the most used buttons on my remote anyway.

You're praising bridge contracts just a few days after a bridge contract has been drained by hundreds of millions of dollars? :) Also, who is "we"? Bitcoiners, Etherians, crypto people in general, or some other crypto group?

If that is the only killer app crypto can produce then it's not useful to most people and will stay a niche technology forever.

That's a very Vitalik thing to do. For all the heat he gets from Bitcoiners I consider it a net negative that crypto split up into so many different camps. I wonder how the crypto space would have looked like if the Bitcoin space allow
