   Perhaps you can now use an iPad to do development, if you didn't like the SSH + terminal based editor combo.

   Curious how this compares to Dolt or Noms.

   Really curious what kind of COP this technique can achieve. Cool tech if real, since it doesn’t need any refrigerant. Wondering if there are other downsides.

   Question for the crypto skeptics of HN. Do you think this cycle the whole crypto space goes down the drain never to be heard of again? Do you think the whole space is a fad or do you think there are patches of values underneath the froth? H

   There were many people that reported on the flawed stability mechanism of Terra/Luna/UST. But still, there were many other people that placed their trust in it and cheered the price appreciation.

   I had a bit of a disappointing moment recently when I found out that only top level domains are uncensorable in handshake. Such a let down.

   Most likely their Kubernetes cluster went down. (not a joke)

   There are more robust solutions out there for this architectural pattern. Look into dolt(dolthub) and noms.

    And now we introduced 2 new problems: 1. We have 2 ways of doing stuff (boring loop vs map) 2. We have a new hidden way to introduce performance degradation by importing a library that uses map You might argue that you should know what you&

    Java code got complex after adding generics, not before. In a big Go codebase, even if it’s complex, the styling and patterns are the same, so it’s easier to follow. That might change to some degree with the addition of generics.

    You can achieve that using Handshake, which is a blockchain based replacement for DNS + PKI.

    While this comment seems overly cynical, the fact that Europe depends to such a large degree on Russia for its energy needs is a big failure. Now that the cards are on the table we (as Europeans) need to take some hard decisions and face th

    I grew up in Eastern Europe and your statement regarding "the elevation of hustle and cunning above all other forms of intelligence" rings so true and brings back memories. When I grew up, being able to criminally take advantage o

    Card details can be stored in the phone and the OS can offer a payments API through which any payment provider can integrate. Similarly to how the File Provider API works.

    Encryption is done using normal Wireguard keys so it's not a security problem. Im curious if the DHT routing is done based on the key or on the IPv6 address that represents the key.

    I think lately they use wireguard as well, so it should be comparable to Tailscale.

    If the value of assets drops you get a deflation and central banks hate that, so in practice what happens is that asset values get propped up on an ongoing basis. This is the situation we are finding ourselves now.

    Keep in mind that hyperinflation only works to reduce inequality when coupled with financial repression. The rich are already keeping most of their wealth in assets that keep up with inflation, or even outpace it, which exacerbates the ineq
