This is true of proof of work but this isn't necessarily true of all blockchain implementations. Under certain conditions BFT can be maintained without systems such as proof of work.

I agree, the syntax being similar doesn't really mean much for similarity when it comes to actually solving problems.

I don't talk to their developer teams so I wouldn't know. I wouldn't expect them to move quickly enough for that to have been publicly announced by now. My guess is either ethereum or hyperledger fabric depending on how much

Its the interactions between assets, agreements and trusted devices which opens up possibilities greater than the scope of this thinking.

Except any reasonably complex interactions between parties which may or may not be accounting applications yet still need a distributed system of trust. Which includes a few trillion dollar industries.

The legal side will be one of the last barriers I agree, if a court doesn't recognize the immutability of the system then it can't be used as evidence of anything. If blockchains can't be used as an audit trail for legal mean

As for the last paragraph a good example of this is the closing of a contract from an iot device signal. The device signal may be on the iot chain or chain code instance and the contract logic on another. The only problem with your theory i

The whole point is to cryptographically be able to prove ownership of something to the network. Given that bitcoins, litecoins and ether aren't magically disappearing out of people's wallets I think its pretty safe to say these sy

A lot of these things are seemingly no-ops because the tech has to be proven and withstood tests of legality. However some of these trust-less distributed systems are approaching a point where turning them into real systems in use is a matt

It's hard to say which implementation will be used but the fabric project from hyperledger seems to have the most momentum.

hyperledger fabric is not a 'coin'.

>"we just signed a contract in which we promised feature X; you need to implement it in two weeks". This hits wayyyy to close to home.

Well on one hand you will definitely increase the number of ways to do DOM manipulation, but on the other isolated communities could move at different paces. I think its hard to say if the dominate mode of ui web dev will slow down, I'

Its inevitable that all of those who want to replace javascript will push facilities into the web assembly spec to remove javascript from the equation.

>a restricted subset of JavaScript This actually isn't the case. Browsers provide a virtual machine which can run assembly code with web assembly, its that simple, nothing about it necessitates javascript except that its the interfa

by jjn2009 9y ago
the roadmap for WebAssembly does include interfaces into DOM manipulation, it's not the highest priority but allowing javascript replacement isn't completely out of the scope of web assembly. Just don't expect it to be a good

by jjn2009 9y ago
DOM manipulation isn't currently supported, for now you will need to provide a javascript layer between the C code and DOM. Its in the roadmap to create these interfaces. Web assembly is better suited for CPU intensive tasks which you

I can't speak for top comment but I started learning R and realized that a lot of the primitives which are exposed in python as libraries are just primitives in R and are thus are more natural to use in subtle ways. Once you start thin

The dynamic for founders is completely different from employees in terms of work ethic, a job is a job, a company you own a large number of shares is a lifestyle choice of dedication. Nothing about the quotes seems to reflect a lack of ego,

yup, the assertion that both failing is highly unlikely is under the assumption that you are checking the status of each copy regularly.

for all we know at this point the new intel lines are rebranded xeons (plus a few consumer features), the hastily put together response to AMD seems to suggest this.

A good way to gauge this is maybe looking at the app ecosystem and seeing how many apps rely on lower level APIs to perform their tasks.

yes, only until I can have recreational nukes can I bask in their power and radiation.

While this may be simply put this really is the best answer. The least amount of effort it takes to push something out the door is the ideal MVP, market validation is many times more important than early stage tech/code in a business,

The main factor is the market for this unused CPU time, a bid of 20% could be vastly different on each service. The GCE pricing model in a way has a sort of step function applied to the pricing, whereas AWS you can bid however you like, how

can't courts work around this in extra ordinary cases?

It's likely better to just write/use libs which abstract the CUDA/OpenCL level away for generic GPU type tasks. Unless you have really strict performance requirements or are writing a very specific piece of GPU code, in which

Its pretty easy to slap a new label on a card and call it enterprise. Consumer cards can be kept from eating the enterprise sales by creating artificial barriers around what you can do with each line of card.
