Pakistan and Turkey are democratic countries. Just saying. But I get what you meant. Anyway, I don't have a simple solution to this complex problem. Should US sell weapons to India? China?

I seconded Raymond Hettinger. He is a very experienced developer and is much respected one. If he does not want the role, perhaps Victor Stinner can do the job.

It's very hard to do and very very expensive. An Indonesian company tried to build a Youtube competitor: https://vidio.com . I know many friends who work there. From their stories, we can assume that it takes a lot of smart

I think one of the values that blockchain can bring on the table in this context is convenience. Passing data to a thumb drive or a piece of paper is a decentralized strategy but inconvenient one. I imagine in the future, the doctor in Braz

Yes, I can live without Google Map, Google Search, GMail, Photos, but Youtube is unavoidable. For me, Youtube is more than just music or cute videos. I learn programming, mathematics, physics a lot from Youtube. :(

But how do you know that the centralized server does not override all records to tamper the evidence? Append-only log is useless if the actor choose to override all logs. So you need a neutral third party to keep the records in case the cen

For us, American Idol is pointless. But for the singer who got robbed the championship, it's not. Yes, I admit the energy bill is part of the blockchain scalability issue. But blockchain is still in infancy. There is a room for improve

I edited my comment. I misread your question. This is the hypothetical solution. Let's say there are 1000 voters. You premine 1000 coins then send it to each voter. Voter then can vote with 1 coin. So you can make sure the voting proce

Paper ballots is overkill for American Idol voting, though. FYI, the voting in blockchain can be anonymised.

I give you one shining example. Secure and untampered voting. Let's say you record voting based on SMS for American Idol show in MySQL database. Singer A got 1000 votes, singer B got 700 votes. But singer B is more viral and popular in

Secure and untampered voting. In centralized server (server in AWS), the gate keeper can tamper the voting records (UPDATE voting set your_champion_voting = 100). With smart contracts on top of Ethereum, that is impossible.

I remember 2015 or 2016, everyone was hyped about Deep Learning. Everyone was talking about DeepDream, Tensorflow, etc. I guess 2018 will be the year of blockchain and cryptocurrency.

Hi there. You must extend your service beyond practising Linux CLI because Windows 10 got Ubuntu already built-in. There is no value proposition anymore. All hope is not lost though. I see that you already offer learning other stuff like My
