Decentralisation is hard - never told the contrary. However, transaction "gas" fees with some chains (Polygon, Solana) are less than 1 cent and you probably know that. You can pay as much with DynamoDB if you don't optimise a

Indeed it's hard to build a truly decentralised app right now, that's why I referred to "future version of web apps"... Most people deploy a backend proxy and use APIs for indexing, etc. Originally, these APIs were centr

I have the impression that most comments here are either biased against cryptocurrencies or trying to push for them blindly. That's a bit sad considering we should at least be discussing the technology here. web3 is a marketing brand t

Quite a good summary! However, web3 has nothing to do with Bitcoin which does not provide smart contracts or wallets connected with web apps. Most decentralised apps are built with the Ethereum code (either using the original chain or one o

Wow, same for me! A few years ago, I was vacationing abroad, and ordered a gift from Amazon to be delivered in another country. The payment from Amex bounced for whatever reason, and Amazon permanently banned my account instantly. Differenc

Being decentralized does not prevent them from making the job of an insurer. Nexus Mutual just told on Twitter that since it is not a smart contract attack, they're not going to pay.

There should be a retweet on HN! QNX was one the most impressive OS I've seen, especially for its time. From the full OS in a 1.44Mb floppy disk to restartable drivers, real-time, etc. IPC with messages is built in and most things ran

They could get that question 100 times per week, but I doubt it. They have more than 6k issues on GitHub and not a single one mentions blockchain. It seems more probable that they just wanted to piggy back on the Discord news.

To start, I didn't know Zulip and it looks like a clickbait headline. Then, you read the article and you stumble upon a few well-known anti-blockchain arguments, that are designed to appeal to anti-something crowds. "We believe th

Thanks a lot! I'm still appalled by the state of many things in JS tbh. I have the impression you have to perpetually move your codebase by adapting to your stack underlying changes, may it be the build system, the framework, tools or

You stated the reason why I'll never get any Samsung hardware: bloated software, by design. I still believe Huawei is missing out big time. When they got banned in the US, they should have *open sourced the whole stack* and put forward

There are a lot of purposes. 1. Being able to modify it, which was the original intent of RMS. Of course, such a public license would allow users to modify it and even to distribute their modifications for others, as long as they adhere to

I have the impressions that, in some ways, we are reaching the limits of the open source model. I am not saying this light heartedly, I built a fair share of open source software myself. The situation is complex since many different types o

France has 4 companies in the top 100. All of them in the luxury fashion/beauty products: LVMH, L'Oreal, Hermes and Dior. Three of them were created before WW1 (that's a one) and Dior in 1946. And all of them thrive because o
