100% population literacy is neither reasonable nor attainable. Yet, functional literacy has drastically improved throughout the past century. To say programming is never to attain such a characteristic is making a statement against the tr

I simply do not have the time nor motivation to conduct an attack on the Nano testnet. I've responded to your other reply with the technical shortcomings of the mitigation, my proposal is still open somewhere in github's issues b

The current mitigation enables attackers to raise the difficulty at whim and effectively disables any cached PoW's by large entities. This hurts Nano's primary feature - speed - for the end user. Also, while it certainly makes it

Security wise Nano is DOA. Currently any attacker can effectively DDOS the network with trivial resources. I’ve personally proposed a complete solution to this problem over a year ago but it’s implementation is complex and would require a n

Nano is an interesting cryptocurrency, but it’s very benefits are attack vectors. Currently Nano has no way of dealing with a precomputed PoW attack which means a single attacker has the ability to effectively ‘DDOS’ the network. This is br

I get your premise, but that has nothing to do uniquely with liberal arts.

Your argument is a misnomer, equal access is just a restatement of belief in equal rights. Equal opportunity is the belief that everyone should be given a level playing field.

What you mentioned is rEFInd’s auto detect feature which by design doesn’t work with encrypted disks. rEFInd will automatically detect other .efi binaries so you can just install your other bootloaders alongside rEFInd, make rEFInd the def

Well that seems awfully close minded. “Good writers” are those who can engage their audience, your perspective of a “Good writer” is simply a reflection of you as a target audience. No need to put everyone in your box.

rEFInd can automatically detect linux, Windows, and mac partitions and boot them. You could just install it to a usb stick and use it whenever necessary.

You could just install rEFInd and make it the default bootloader with its auto find mode enabled.

Hi, sorry I missed this - I seemed to misunderstand the question. There's a simple fix that I guess I might now make an extension either today or tomorrow depending when I have free time. Here's how you could do it on your own, th

IIRC they used to let you do that a decade ago, then slowly made it harder and harder until it was impossible. Its a 'feature' now of youtube premium so take that as you will.

Most communities that would actually have buyers for high level information are well hidden, you basically have to know someone to get in. I don't know of any sites on TOR that have a marketplace for this kind of high level information

Doubt it, that would open up too many vectors on an otherwise easily anonymized operation.

This sounds like a problem a simple extension would trivially solve, I might write one up and publish it later today when I have some free time. I’ll edit this comment when I do. Edit: Should've googled first, there seems to be plenty
