I'm thinking of a blockchain where the ledger is public read (for verifications) and write-constrained. How can you verify the.legitimacy of the introduced data? Probably some other tool. But it being federated across countries would h

Blockchains can, and most likely will, be federated. Legal agreements can be managed via such a system. Bear in mind that the blockchain does not solve politics, and all the problems you mention are a problem of the currently most common im

You're missing the forest for the trees. Bitcoin is broken and will never be more than a speculative asset with no intrinsic value. Blockchains can solve problems. Decentralisation can quickly become federation. Example: a global id sy

I believe the promise of having an insurance contract publicly verified by a decentralised system is to reduce the inherent costs of the current regulated system. In my country,and I assume in most it's the same, in order for you to si

Not to say your completely wrong, just that the purpose of car tokens on the blockchain is to replace perhaps your insurance, but not the keys.

Rails never was semver. Their yearly major-minor grand release always, always breaks API all around. It's inevitable. Any rails-only gem will as a result have a strong incentive not to follow several.

Ruby captured a lot of webdev market before python became mainstream, and you can see it in the maturity of the tools around this domain (ruby's way more evolved). The tables turned because python became the de-facto ML language, and e

Isn't this the same as last year's "Why Ruby on Rails Is Still a Good Choice in 2021?" and "Why Ruby on Rails Is Still a Good Choice in 2020?". At least this version bump complies to SemVer, contrary to rails.

I think this article missed a key element of where ruby is going: developer productivity tools. It is kind of hinted at with static typing, but the real story behind a lot of what happened since ruby 3 was released has been the tools and ID

You're arguing with the guy who did truffleruby. I'd say he knows a thing or 2 about the soundness of dynamic languages and adhering to a formal spec.

If OPs concern is only availability of cheap talent, there are only two choices: nodeJS and python. Which is what most code academies, the main source of cheap ready-to-grind talent comes from. Ruby used to dominate this space; in fact, I t

That's a bit overstated. Although curl wrappers exist for most languages, they're far from popular or consensual in each individual community.

So, covering up science fuck ups is legimitate because it protects science, and we need science to promote other agendas to promote other dodgy agendas which are scientifically still unproven or unprovable (I don't know how science can

Without rails, I usually use any of the other rack compatible frameworks, such as roda, sinatra or padrino. This article is conveying the message that,without rails, "in the beginning, we had TCP sockets.."

unicorn is single-threaded by design, and is not expected to support any background threading workarounds that people build on top of it. That "feature" in github shouldn't be passing the env hash.

I believe this article isn't much about DRY, but rather abstracting for future use. DRY isn't just doing the inheritance dance footgun. I'll just add that thinking about future use is a practice inherited from classical engin
