(disclaimer, I don't know shit about bitcoin) The one problem with this is trust. Even shady enterprises need tools to do business they can trust, and if all funds they have suddenly devalue by orders of magnitude they will loose trust

The ecosystem is a function of popularity. Lisp isn't very popular because, at least in my opinion, it requires a relatively high level of maturity and experience to be used effectively on nontrivial projects. Every single project in L

There wasn't any doubt for decades. Normal thinking people understand cause and effect. Understand basic science of greenhouse effect. Understand if energy is not reflected to space it is stored and that you can't do that forever

It says "22 lines of C", not "22 statements of C". For this type of exercise it is assumed that some readability is going to be lost... just look at Perl golf competition. These tend to be written in a single line and it

It is a little bit like software engineering. It doesn't matter a lot what you wrote first. What matters is if you have followed up, cleaned up, refactored and left it without inconsistencies. It matters if you listen to critique and t
