This has been tried quite a bit ranging from proquint to random 32-bit phrases [0]. I just don't think we as humans are going to be able to make something both memorable and with enough size to hold, say, ed25519 keys (i.e. Tor v3 keys

For those looking to do this programmatically, it is so easy these days. This project uses the Python library Stem [0] and I wrote one for Go called Bine [1]. Firing up a website on an onion service from your home computer is really easy, a

There are games, e.g. in the 2006 finals, where one player shoots more free throws than the entire other team.

You're arguing against it being absolutely rigged when what most people mean is minorly rigged here and there. You're reading an article about the rigging of games, yet you might have made this same comment in 2006. Unfortunately

If the calls are so subjective that one can't tell the difference between a ref accidentally being way off and on purpose being way off, then maybe your sport/rules are the problem when being way off is either excusable or indeter

Depends on what/why you need verification and if you want financial incentives. Forgive me for not taking the time to read into your product deeply. Sounds like you want a distributed DB. The blockchain part assumes you want shared ver

While I have similar feelings, I enjoy code reviews on high quality code. I like reading high quality code. But yes, the enjoyment of a code review is inversely proportional to the amount of feedback required. Some people enjoy mentorship m

I'd be tempted to hand-write the WAT for that. It's not that bad, much easier than dropping into a x86 asm block in C or something.

We don't all publish TV content. We can see from retransmission fees for over-the-air content to the decimation of business models like Aereo what happens when content is governed. I see the Aereo business model as very similar to what

It won't help once you realize the people don't care and you can't make them care. It's not ignorance that's the problem either, it's intentional apathy. Until you can show a regular person how they are literal

Yup, goes both ways. Assuming the companies promised more and underdelivered, your city's economic council should have written the contract-break into the contract. Or assuming the companies didn't promise that much, your city see

I have plenty of examples where it works out. The town I live in gave large tax breaks not too long ago and it's working well. Nearby, sports facilities were financed with balloted measures at the request of the public, sometimes in co

I think this is fantastic for both as they don't deserve each other. Residents don't want a company getting breaks and Amazon wants breaks. Amazon has plenty of other places where the residents value them more and NYC has plenty o

Assuming moving isn't a possibility for you, the obvious answer is look for a new job. It is rare to ever get a raise for the amount you get with a new job. Negotiate high...too high...worst case scenario you stay where you are. Unsure

I'd consider slack/spotify to be the outliers and I don't think this is targeting them. For the rest of the webdevs that just want to make a web app, Electron is appealing to them too and we shouldn't pretend the only re

You can design for more than one thing, especially when complimentary. Why is there no room to speculate that they also designed for what people want? Why do I have to question the author's correctness to do so? Why mix all these words
