Even if you use a centralized node, this kind of centralization in LN is not as bad as the typical "centralization problem" often referred to in cryptocurrency, because it doesn't mean counterparty risk. The worst thing that

Looks like they were already using it as a backup: https://gitlab.com/popcorn-official/popcorn-desktop but last commit a year ago? I guess they will push latest commits soon

I agree with what you're saying but then there's the other example of Asian countries that are not China, who have flattened the exponential curve without forced lockdowns. Governments in the west should just speedup mass producti

If they have not been officially tested, how do you know they are infected? It's not enough to have symptoms; I myself had several symptoms about a month ago, but they didn't test me because they were not enough symptoms and I did

Agree with this. I live in Hong Kong and there was no forced lockdown here either because 95% of the people wear them voluntarily.

I guess you mean "Making Netflix save bandwidth". You will get the same amount of data to watch the ninja turtles regardless if you use IPFS or not.

It's possibly because secret chats need to be started interactively (you can't send a message until the other party has come online), and later cannot be shared among different devices (open the same channel in desktop|web|mobile)

Yes I know the decimal type and it's what I use in all my code, I just thought the default would be something with more precision than double/float even if not decimal.

I was going to reply that I thought the point of the video/tweet is that JS does choose floating point by default while others don't. But I stand corrected, C# default sucks too: it uses the double type! And here I thought that by

Why not just use C# instead of staying in the shitty alternative? You know... https://twitter.com/knocte/status/1207544365607985152

I think altcoins are not even penny stocks, they will die soon in the same way there are no other networks these days that try to be the internet. The penny stocks are the Ethereum tokens.

I don't consider Bitcoin Crash as one of the larger ones (it possibly has less than 5% of BTC's hashpower).

I wonder why this ended up in the front page of HackerNews? It's not news that altcoins are much much easier to attack than the top coin(s). Lesson to learn here: top coins are not only better due to the network effects (users and deve

Yeah, and? It's not that the US has one of the lowest income tax rates in the world (in fact, it's one of the highest, especially to their citizens that work abroad).

Do what you are told. If you have nothing to hide, you will not get into trouble.

THIS. In any other country that is not the US, the advice given by the article is really bad advice.

So much facepalm. I've decided to rather not answer to your comment even if I have replies to any of your claims, because it would be a waste of time.

I'm sorry but, I can't believe we're already on the 20s, and still one has to hear(read) opinions like this. Seems like some members of the opensource community will never learn the lessons from the past. And I'm not tal

I think we need the best of both worlds: debian packagers (and packagers from other distros) working on flatpaks and snaps instead of deb/rpms, so that the work can be reused across distributions. Many devs of upstream software refuse
