   I think yes although the article does not mention the API. And when it goes to stable Google will probably revise their policies w.r.t. U2F in Firefox. I can second the GPG yubi pass experience. Very, very nice.

   > Essentially, WebAssembly is the new Flash, but it is an open standard, more secure, and language agnostic. I disagree. Flash could draw things without interacting with DOM thorough JS. Also Flash had sophisticated IDE. WebAssembly is

   I understand the trust model but it still does not qualify as "open source" if the source is not available.

    Unfortunately X 509 doesn't support multiple signatures. But your model is very similar to HPKP, just the details on what exactly is signed are different.

    But... What if a new user arrives and doesn't have your pinned CA? Your model would require to always have a trusted CA and if you always have them why trouble oneself with pinning custom one?

    Well in a distributed system you are in a way always out of sync. The primary achievement of Bitcoin was taking already exiting pieces (hash cash, Merkle trees, signatures etc.) and assembling them in a way that solves consensus in such a s

    If you find a valid block then it's more profitable to switch to this block as a base. Chain splits happen when someone finds a block but is not aware of other valid block.

    Usually the second miner also saw and included the same transactions so they are not lost. If they didn't the transaction is undone in a sense that it just didn't happen. Of course it can still be picked by the next miner. The cha

    I've read the article and although entertaining it doesn't contain any substantial information nor sources. So all in all it was an interesting anecdote. By the way the hacker news transparency looks really cool!
