Why does everything have to be an ICO? What's the point of a token here? Just give the appropriate organization some charitable funds.

That it is not obviously a better metric.

That seems rediculously cheap and easy to come up with funds for. Storing the entire progress of science for $1k/mo? That's a good deal.

From WW2? Probably quite a few.

Not everyone values that.

SPY and the Vanguard version together represent half a trillion dollars of wealth under management. And that's just the top two. So yes, you can dump that much in index funds.

There are more ways of linking transactions than just values. I enumerated some of them in my comment.

Not any that are scalable or trust-free.

I don't know why you are being down voted, since you said exactly what I was alluding to. Monero's ring signature traceability is very hard to analyze. Even if the ring signature is not broken in a cryptographic sense, transaction

Monero works by ring signatures. When you make a spend, in addition to the coin you are spending you pick a small number of other coins, presumably at random. Validators don't know which coin of the set is being spent, but they do have

Plus all the other cases that would now have to be granted based on precedent.

As an actual cryptographer who has looked into it, I wouldn't put too much faith in Monero's fungibiliry. The story is not as good as the PR would have you believe, and is really not all that different from Bitcoin with CoinJoin.

Both are involved. Usually the art people call themselves digital artists though.

I've never had a GP that doesn't care about their patient's in-network costs. Get a new one.

I made significant use of my healthcare pre-ACA ($30k-$50k charges before insurance). All of it was in-network, covered, and a small annual premium. The very year ACA took effect my health plan was canceled, my doctor went off-network, my n

More cell towers and more spectrum allocations? Japan seems to be doing just fine with high density, high bandwidth mobile usage.

Use a PRNG seeded with the hash of the build manifest.

Down-voted because that's not an argument against reproducible builds. The outputs can be bit-for-bit identical but still use an RNG for fuzz testing.

by kobeya 9y ago
Just piggybacking on this comment, you can do a whole lot more than just trust that a few people have automated. Most people in Ubuntu get non-distro packages from Launchpad, for example, which uses their own build servers. With reproducibl

Don't like it, block it. No one is forcing you to look at it -- unlike your example. I fail to see what the problem is.
