It should be scandalous in those cases too. Having a company be both the distributor and producer and have a monopoly is problematic. This is sort of the problem of cable TV also, where companies like comcast tries to be a producer and dist

I don't think so... if he was really cranky he wouldn't have called it speculation, which is an extremely generous word for what can easily be interpreted as intentionally manipulative narrative.

The article says it costs about twice as much. > Currently the cost of this new technology is still considered prohibitive, as it is twice the cost of regular concrete manufacture (70-80 € / m3), making it only viable for projects w

Close enough. I think its stored in a block chain though rather than just a p2p bittorrent network.

Um, please tell me more :) It can do that or it does do that? Also, ENS doesn't typically resolve to an IP but instead a swarm hash or a block address, what would end up resolving in those cases?

But you first have to figure out who to put in jail for contempt and in order to ban it you'll have to take down the entire block chain. I'm not totally sure how this one works but with ENS there are key holders that theoretically

You don't do the mining, you pay a small fee to have others do the mining. By small I mean it costs me about $0.004 USD worth of eth to update my ENS domains. A pretty small price to pay for the superior features. For private info perh

Thats cool. Also ENS (Ethereum Name Service) on the ethereum block chain is really cool, though its more for resolving to swarm hashes or block addresses... which are for decentralized documents and apps. https://manager.ens.doma

> Arrays of memristors can do these tasks efficiently because they become analog computations instead of digital. What does this even mean in a computer? How can you do a non-digital computation?

Exactly, they each have a maintenance cost which isn't shared when they're all separated.

Its funny and makes some good points but I don't think the distinction is between good and bad teams but whether or not you're 1 team or more. If one team has one application that is split across multiple repositories it can be a

It lets you define syntax, which may be invalid in javascript, which then generates valid javascript at compile time.

Thats right, its not distributed like bitcoin but all of the nodes are "trusted" by each other and the block chain itself would only be accessible for users and you would not be able to add a node without being a massive corporati

There are a lot of possible nuanced conversations but I think that the rejection of FB-coin on principle is the simplest argument and doesn't require much nuance to achieve. That principle simply being the principle of decentralization

But are any clocks correct? What is the correct time? Are you sure the correct time isn't just someone declaring their clock is the correct time and everyone else's clock is relative to theirs? At what point does this metaphor wea

They're not the same thing but sometimes they do still peddle conspiracy theories that turn out to be false. Many are susceptible to delivering fake news as if it was real due to a conflict of interest related to their funding model. I

What's an "actual news site" though? Major news outlets also regularly publish unfounded conspiracy theories (e.g. russia gate, WMD in Iraq, etc). The question is do you like yours flavored with anonymity or government fundin
