Thanks petra, we are really looking forward to exploring options like this. It's very much early days (the site is currently static pages hosted on GitHub and re-built when changes are made). The first step will likely be to add direct

The key components are the two transistors connected back to back. The first (Q1, pins 1, 2 and 6) is effectively used as a zener diode which will exhibit breakdown noise at low currents [1]. The second transistor (also labelled Q1 but on p

I have been using goread.io pretty much since it launched. There is a really annoying bug though that affects me every time I read my feeds. All my posts get marked as read at once when I resize the window in a certain way. I had a go at fi

Yes, seems like this isn't the best use-case for blockchain technology.

Haha, yeah, I've been thinking that too. I was kind of more looking at interesting applications of blockchains but it seems like this isn't really the best use case.

But I could set the cost of mining low enough to make it feasible no? Seems like the attraction of creating an altcoin vs using Ethereum is that it's a simpler system. If I am not interested in leveraging the existing networks, that mi

I haven't read the full thing. But a DAO is still connected to the global Ethereum network and leverages it? Does it have to be?

If I wanted to create some kind of kudos/points economy for my local hackspace would Ethereum be a good choice or should I rather look into creating an altcoin? I am not interested in hooking it up to the global networks just providing

Firstly, copying isn't the same as taking. More importantly most of the scientists want their research to be read and studied as widely as possible but have their careers to worry about. The journal system is being widely criticised bu

100% agree and it makes me try and handle state in a similar way even in plain Javascript without any libraries. Will check out take-home more when I get a chance, I did see some murmurs on the Elm mailing list of how it would be easy to do

Yes, it was 0.14 at the time I believe, though that version number doesn't really mean that much. Would you have been more comfortable with 1.0.0? That's what the core library was at. Anyway, I should have realised there were some

Yes, the source-map support in browsers really needs to improve. NodeJS is another matter though as, in my experience, it maps seamlessly. I think Coffeescript, TypeScript and Babel (ES6 and JSX) are completely different beasts to Elm thoug

I think that's a bit unfair as Elm is already seeing some professional use. Though on the subject of inter-op, Purescript might be what you are looking for if you want a strongly-typed, Haskell-like language, compiled to JS with a less

I really like Elm and have become an intermediate user of it (as well as Haskell). I felt like I really understood what Elm signals are about and made some optimisations to Helm [0] based on that. I pushed to use it for a contract for an op

Reminds me of when Linus tagged Linux 3.0 and it broke a bunch of peoples code due to their bad version checks. Linux 2.x had been going for about 15 years.
