In fact cats are mentioned in the bible, in the deuterocanonical book of Baruch 6:21 (6:22 in some versions). This was part of the bible up until the reformation and is still part of the bible for catholics and orthodox, but protestants con

Problem is NIV is not open source, technically I would need a license. There's lots of more modern translations, like the World English Bible. I think using KJV is good for enhancing the joke though.

An important and often misunderstood point: Having >2/3rds of validators (or >50% of power in PoW) let's you rewrite the chain back in history, censor txs, etc. You control what transactions go in blocks, and to a certain ex

Sounds more like an issue with the team and onboarding than a problem with you, IMHO. I say: cut your losses and swallow your pride, share what you just told us with a senior engineer, and consider yourself "back in training". If

My first thought was "you know who would want this? Insurance companies!" Doctor have a moral incentive -- often a strong one! -- to maximize your health, but they actually don't have the economic incentive to keep you heal

I don't know at what level this is used, but I have only ever seen it in my graduate level logic and mathematics courses. (I'm European.) I like it. Part of a good proof is a rigorous derivation. There is plenty of thing sto be sa

They're missing the point. The web already allows you to easily spin up a private network where you can set all the rules. Web2 was the cash grab based on the realization that if you can bring all these people under a network you con

Word of advice: don't go looking for your private keys. If someone was malicious they could log all fetched pages and scan those for keys with funds attached. The act of looking up a specific key is revealing information.

I've noticed that there are a few hardcoded ones on the final page, where the account exists and the key is wrong. I'd say odds are that the website is wrong, but you can always load those keys in a wallet and see if they give you

Not really. The point is: there's always someone who has a debt in DAI they need to pay off. If they thought the dip would go even further , they would wait longer, because to them, the DAI does have value: it is what they need to get

That's exactly what unions do. They consider what a reasonable salary for their members are, usually in long and meticulous negotiations with the employers. They are not idiots. They know that if you drive labor prices too high then th

Joining the union is voluntary. It's simply a way of coordinating action. And strikes are well within the legal rights of workers -- it's the way the system is designed to work, bit a fluke. This article just points out how a syst

I had never heard of this bridge before the attack. The fact that a project manages to attract half a billion in capital unfortunately doesn't say all that much, since so much capital is flowing in so fast to every project with a pulse

WebAssmebly is not web specific. And it's not assembly. I think the best way to think of it is that "WebAssembly" is a great marketing name, but what it does is be a modern-day JVM: a byte code language that can run anywhere.

You send your ETH to a specific contract, from which it can't be moved (whether you want to call that "burning" is up to you, but it's probably a bit confusing). Each validator must also run an Eth full node, and uses th
