It'll matter if there's a bull market, and lots of people try to exchange their tether for Bitcoin/Ethereum en masse, and Bitfinex runs out of money to maintain the $1 peg, because they lack reserves.

Exactly- I was enjoying the upward price trajectory, but the whole time I was thinking "This next bubble pop is going to be epic" Frankly, this is an underwhelming drop so far.

This is clearly false- Bitcoin had a return of 100000% in the last decade. It's completely irrelevant with those kinds of numbers what the "risk" was. ...Now, you may have a personal opinion that the next decade will not see

Keep in mind ML models are really great at cheating to get answers: Maybe it's detecting that women have to tilt their head up more to reach the retinal photography machine, because they're shorter on average. Maybe, some of the i

It has many different definitions, but in this case I mean a flat portable computer, without a hinge.

Everyone is using pretty much the same screen, model HSD088PW1. As for longevity, I guess if I'm honest I have to say ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ If you think this is a concern and think you know how to resolve the question and are an engineer with

I believe it's a bit taller than the vortex core. I think the key caps rows are spaced further apart, though both have 4 rows.

Well, I think most people read a book in one of two postures: (1) placing the book on a desk (2) sitting on a couch or bed, with legs raised, book resting on legs https://images.theconversation.com/files/361577/ori

The primary benefit over a Macbook Air is the full size 40% mechanical keyboard. Other advantages are hackability, smaller footprint, quicker access without having to open screen, more inconspicuous when using in public space. But this is v

Oh yeah, there was a mailchimp issue, I will look into it.

I bought a Planck specifically to answer this question. Unfortunately, it has a significantly bigger footprint than a vortex core, so it would be difficult.

Exactly, this is why he sometimes comes off as a jerk, because he tells people stuff like "No, you can't add your virtual function table feature to Zig, OOP programming is a bad idea in a systems language."

Isn't it better that these networks are getting hardened in exchange for a small cryptocurrency payment, instead of waiting for all the exploits to be used by an adversary in World War Three?

So they paid a penetration-testing firm a consultancy fee to help harden their network.

The keyboard is borrowed from a Vortex Core. It is fully programmable. It unfortunately does not support QMK, but is still quite good.

Curious why someone wouldn't like Kelley- Is it because he shoots down feature additions a lot?

To be honest, there's not much "lispy" about it, aside from the branding. It's a bog standard raspi cyberdeck, at least initially out of the gate.

LOL I've built a lot of tech for walkingdre.am, but my best prototype so far just isn't "fun" enough (based on a highly subjective definition of "fun") so I'm stuck at the moment, trying to improve that as

This is a common concern with this form factor, but I think there's a lot of variability between people on how comfortable they are with a "book reading" posture, such as required by a cyberdeck. It will work for some people,

Hi, I'm with Lisperati and we're working hard to manufacture these. Feel free to ask any questions. No, we don't know when they'll be ready, but when they are ready we will sell them directly (no presale/crowdfundin

It seems to me M1-style performance should be easy to achieve for other large companies with access to decent foundries... one would think Samsung could just use a similar ARM core, then study the design of the M1 to come up with a competit

Hot diggity that's a sweet machine- keys for car and cdr! I want one really badly, but I know it'll just sit in a drawer, because 90s tech just isn't gonna hold up for practical use.

No question a fair number of people in the crypto space earned wealth more through luck than through savvy, and might make poor investment decisions in the future. (not that there is anything wrong with earning money through luck, if you we

That's funny... I'm a cryptocurrency investor, and I can't interpret complex financial data, either.

I'm with you on the AI. If AGI is possible in the next decade, I'd argue Google has at least a 30% chance of being the company to pull it off.

Mainly because it isn't seeing much use so far. It would face the same problem if it ever becomes more popular for payments.

For those who don't know, Bitcoin Maximalists generally view all non-monetary uses of Bitcoin as a bad thing. This is different from the Ethereans, who believe that most use cases are fine, as long as people pay the requisite transacti
