There are lots of siblings explaining why “parse don’t validate”. But also, it’s not always wise to take this to an extreme. I’ve seen over the years many scenarios where dev teams were over-enthusiastic about this and parsed themselves int

An ordinary contract transferring ownership from owner i -> i+1 does not demonstrate that ownership was transferred from i-1 -> i.

Proof that the person who claims to be current owner, is the person that the previous owner transferred ownership to (I guess more specifically, proof that they hold the private key). And simultaneously, proof that owner n-1 is who owner n-

I assume by using the private key to sign a message. If the card holder doesn't also hold the NFT, they can't transfer the NFT to the buyer. My understanding is that NFTs are useful when the cost of preventing theft, forgeries, et

The card's ownership is public knowledge? Like, if the physical card is stolen or forged, then it's trivial to see that it's illegitimate. (Not an NFT expert, correct me if I'm wrong please.)

Any technical advice about how to block yourself is beating around the bush IMO. Not only is it easy to bypass most of that stuff, but you'll be way better off learning how to deal with this psychological issue directly instead of tryi

I agree that GOPATH makes integration with other package managers much easier. However, this is a lost cause at this point. Go is removing GOPATH support in the next release (Go 1.17). See: https://blog.golang.org/go116-modu

You can write TF in Java. Most don't, for a good reason. Python is the first class citizen, everyone uses it, you can find help most easily for it, its data science ecosystem dwarves Java's, you'll have a hard time convincing

I'm not sure that comparison makes much sense, it's like saying that HTTP has no SLA. AFAIU, Filecoin miners are free to offer SLAs for storage, and clients are free to enter into deals only with miners who offer such SLAs.

Even Emacs handles Java pretty well these days, with lsp-mode and jdt.ls (powered by...Eclipse). I've been using it for the past year and it works great.
