   You are correct in that tracing a transaction fee is equivalent to tracing any kind of transaction. There is no event horizon for transaction fees as implied by the article. New coins have no history because they are new, the coins for the

   This is actually a great letsencrypt.org intro. Too bad it's not labeled that way here or on youtube.

   I agree on the more and more useless progress of web interface design. The hamburger icon (three-strip icon as you call it) being particularly egregious, akin to the travesty that is the 'start' button on windows. However, to be

   It's important to note, because it's often missed, that etcd can operate either as a participant in the high reliability / consensus portion of the cluster, but also as a proxy that does not participate. So you don't ha

   I think we're saying exactly the same thing, and I agree that people have the incorrect casual estimations of exercise calories vs food calorie density. However... "It's not consistent. You're only seeing the results on

   Breakfast... break fast Although religious in origin, I suspect that the idea of an overnight fast became a religious doctrine because of the clear health benefits. Just like many other food prohibitions in religion that have the net effect

   A. Use small claims court. I have. It is very successful. The more who do it the harder this abuse will become. B. It is the banks responsibility to maintain an accurate accounting of funds deposited with them. A customer has no mechanism

    I started working with RenderMan in 1988/89. If you're a programmer then I think the RIB interface is even easier then using GUI tools like Blender. It can be very fun to play with directly. Feed the following text into `prman`

    Also the argument is framed backwards. The question isn't, 'why do I need my privacy'. The question is, 'why do you need to take it'.

    And yet how does the FISA court have jurisdiction in the matter at all? My understanding was that the FISA court existed solely for the purpose of evaluating the validity of warrants that if applied for in a general court would prove a nat

    Well in that case they've never had it with regard to 'all' business records of ANY kind. By definition there is no 'reasonable suspicion' in that context. In fact there is no suspicion at all, and that lack of sus

    Calling a source code repo service a competitor to GitHub is like calling a online book store a competitor to Amazon. Hint: source code is not GitHub's value, just like books where not Amazon's. GitHubs true value is something Go

    You are absolutly right. Threatening to kill people would not be funny at all. Of course, humorous hyperbole on the other hand... I'm guessing you don't see a lot of sitcoms like Silicon Valley, Big Bang Theory, or comedians like

    I am very much against the way Cocoa & Cocoa Touch work (a "ViewController" is NOT!!! a controller in the MVC sense), and Interface Builder makes me want to take a high powered rifle to Cupertino, but Swift is definitely a win

    Thanks, what confuses me though is why you must retain n/2 hosts, and not be able to recover at least in many cases from a loss down to a single host. I understand that a known majority insures that a write will always persist/pr

    I use etcd[1] which is an implementation of Raft for cluster configuration. I have a hard time seeing how Raft or consensus in general scales to a general solution for reliable consistency services. One can not scale by adding servers beca

    I don't know about anyone else, but my thinking is either I buy it pre-order and get it as early as anyone gets it, or I don't think about it until it 'ships within 24 hours' (or I can walk into the store and buy one).

    Nice to see someone finally formalizing what to me seems pretty obvious. Adding account recovery inherently lowers security. 1. Additional vector of attack with lower than password threshold of security. 2. Questions may have common answers
