I am little confused. It is write-only from vendor side seems like vendor will sign something for authenticity. Something like token signature. So it has to have my "pod ID", otherwise I can replay this data, with another "po

Yeah but still item is unique. Imagine every country claiming this item can sell. In real world, you may have the deed but without the item, it has actually no value. In digital world, you only have deed, not a physical item. So deed has th

Actually you don’t own the tweet. In a basic sense, you own a signed ‘snapshot’ of the tweet. Basically it is kind of ‘only signed copy of the tweet’

Nice reversing article for GameCube, but I think original scoring is much better. It is preventing you to play same easy levels over and over again, and as fast as possible bringing you to your skill level. Very good adaptive difficulty, it

But that means products with more margin (which will profit from me more) can replace products which I would like most. There are already on instagram products selling for 10x their market price with 40% discount (limited time offer) Basica

Why would epic relay back 10% to the consumer? There is not a single motivation for that. Imagine Epic cut a deal with apple for 10%, you think prices would be cheaper ? or they would grow their margin.

- I think 80 tons of CO2 for BTC is wrong. It should be around 15-20 tons (75% of BTC is mined with renewables, I think approx 20-25% is coal) - for US, CO2 per $ GDP should be around 0.3 kg - so if BTC is 50000$ value, it is almost same CO
