I don't know about how IPFS is implemented, but you could use content-addressed blocks underneath every file too. This way flipping a bit means that only one underlying block changes, and that the new file would share N-1 blocks with t

Here's another weird idea, make everything older than 10yr free to digitally reproduce. We cannot be funding things that are not truly new. I know that textbooks are well known for having multiple editions that pretty much just scrambl

Being good at business means that they know where they can easily push and get away with it to get more money in the long run. Making it unreasonable hard to take time off will end up in fewer time off over time, and it only takes a couple

I'd like if we got to the point where the computer was on the back of the monitor so it'd be easier to cool, and then the bottom would be dedicated to peripherals, including way better keyboards.

Do you actually like the favicon sized tabs? Or do you have self-control and only open a reasonable amount of tabs?

When was the last time that those 120px of horizontal space made a difference? I can use 2 windows side by side and the pane just eats horizontal padding on most sites because narrow columns are prettier and easier to read.

I actually want a windowing system that provides the tree tab bar instead. I feel the paradigm of having windows around have been stuck for 40yrs and that the only major mainstream innovation is just manually tiling windows. KDE has allowed

The real discovery to me seems that you are actually supposed to read through the errors, and that it's ok to not understand them completely. As a TA I got to see huge jumps in productivity and independence on students that read a coup

I don't understand why this safety couldn't be achieved by adding static structure to the data that the systems get. Statically typed languages know the type of some memory without tagging it, nor having another program try to rec

Is this really an improvement? The logo is tiny enough that I'm guessing we are better off keeping the old logo as it may use fewer resources (not that this page is slow, unlike most of the web today).

You could have a tag hierarchy, or even multiple ones. I don't think tags prevent you from navigating the hierarchy, it's just that at some point you need to build the hierarchies and make them accessible, and just having tags won

When using locks I'm more paranoid about misusing the lock and don't mind typing a bit more to make the code obvious. Also, it seems that good auto-completion for that pattern is simple to achieve. Alternatives to make sure you ar
