You appear to be enraged that a specific open-source project you chose doesn't have good enough documentation for a specific feature you want, which is not the main aim of the project. Not sure I can help. Additionally, all the answers

Calling Bitcoin defi slightly stretches the definition. Typically defi relates to smart contracts - of which there is plenty of documentation, and which is vastly -not- built on Bitcoin. Saying “Bitcoin is defi and look, no defi docs!” is i

And not to mention that by definition, those DeFi contracts are readable. The actual code, itself. Sure, there might be (and probably are) bugs, and we need auditing tools, the list goes on, but at least it's not a black box.

While pragmatically what you've said is entirely true - if we treat the subject with some rigor it's extremely easy to find examples of people who have valued food and shelter at zero. What of the self-immolating buddhist? They va

I'm sure you'll roll your eyes at this response, but a large chunk of economists don't believe there is value in anything. Your definition of "value" might mean "utility" or "what the US treasury sa

Ah see, but you work in the space and probably hold any amount of cryptocurrency at all, so you're morally compromised and fundamentally a scammer. Anyways, sarcasm aside, that sounds excellent - have a link to the project?

Ack! We were excited to see this. While not exactly the same, we're building (& shipping!) an RPi CM4 SATA carrier board as well, in the PiBox ( https://pibox.io/ ). Just finishing up the final details of the metal c

What a perverse implication. I suppose its a great theory for you tho - anyone who uses the currency is automatically part of the scam, thus there are no honest defenders, thus it is a scam! Q.E.D.! I own about 50 dollars of BAT, the curren

Agreed. And there is really no opinion on earth more mundane than " Well , I wouldn't spend my money on it".

I mean - the people who designed Gravaton 3 seem to agree with my premise, so at least that’s some validation. Alternatively, do some CPU profiling with your workstation - a massive amount of time is simple waiting for memory returns.

Yes, it's an English language joke: Two legs in back, and "forelegs" in front (four-legs). 2 + 4 = 6, which is a peculiar (aka odd) number of legs for a horse to have. Thus horses have both odd and even number of legs, mean

Heh, funny you mention this, because I was _so excited_ about the CELL architecture when it was announced - exactly because of memory read/write speed. Then I tried to actually write some code for it, got depressed, and moved back to x

by erulabs 5y ago
Certainly, but many "wasteful" operations are reading/writing main memory unnecessarily - and since a single trip out to memory and back can take many many CPU cycles, typically optimizing memory access time does more for &qu

I'm not disagreeing at all, and I don't know the details in this case, but it's entirely possible to be a billionaire on paper and be _wildly_ incapable of paying salaries to 900 people. 900 x ~150,000 = 135,000,000. If the c

The presupposition there is that regulating something trivial should be easy, and regulating something important should be hard. I would suggest exactly the opposite is what we should aim for.

There are a couple solutions to this. The simplest one could be for the government to publish a known public-key. Vote-data would be encrypted with the public key which only the election board has the private key to decrypt. This would ensu
