The only thing a blockchain can do is a cryptocurrency. The cryptocurrency is the only application that works because transactions are performative writings on the blockchain: they define truth. Once it is written on a blockchain that

Doing so you would only identify Tor exit nodes.

It is possible to advertise your .onion address and offer automatic redirect to it for Tor Browser users using the "Onion-Location" HTTP header. Example with my personal home page: $ curl -I https://pablo.rauzy.nam

Even if there is an LSP server for (La)TeX, will it ever be better than AucTeX already is? I think for a languages like Python, LSP servers are interesting but for some other languages the existing tools are already very powerful: OCaml wit

Yes and of course because of that everyone is respecting the law, especially companies when they're not at any risk if they don't. /s Yes I'm a bit pessimistic about this. Let's all hope I'm wrong.

This is just how it works. I'm not making the rules. The CNIL send "mise en demeure" to companies that do not complies with the GDPR and even before that with the "loi informatique et libertés" and if the companies

Sadly I don't see how this decision can be translated into practice, since I strongly doubt the CNIL will be able (or willing) to send formal notice, and fine after a grace period, all French companies that make use of Google Analytics

Just in case some of you don't know about it yet, you can browser Twitter without logging in using a nitter instance (e.g., https://nitter.net/ ). The url are the same just replace "twitter.com" with the nitte

Another suggestion: add "previous link" and "next link" button to the link viewer :).

You should add the meta tags for social networks on the viewer page. The summary_large_image version should be cool. You can test the feature here: https://cards-dev.twitter.com/validator :).

Hi! Will you also post the pictures on the Twitter account or only send it by email? On the one hand I would like to be able to brag about my purchase and having it posted by your Twitter account would make it look more official (after all,

I really don't have a problem with people being wrong or not understanding something. I can take time to explain. But this level of stupidity paired with so much dishonesty is appalling. > No one is arguing that collision resistance

by p4bl0 5y ago
I'm sorry, it seems you really don't understand neither what I'm saying nor the citation you used. Collision and proof of work are really not the same thing. Here are some Python code that compares the two. If you're n

Have you read the article? It doesn't even mention global warming.

by p4bl0 5y ago
Your citations proves my point, not yours. > This is because it is difficult to find a hash of x that is equal to hash of y in computationally feasible time (collision-resistance). This is exactly what I was explaining.

The adversarial context is everything, but it doesn't exist in most case, because the blockchain is not self sufficient, it needs an external authority to make what's written on it relevant. As for diplomas, I didn't choose t

Okay so now suppose that some one finds a way to break the hash function used in a way that allows to quickly compute partial collisions. This person is able to mine valid blocks very quickly because they can have a number of zeros at the b

You are kind of proving the point against which you are arguing here. > If you don't honor what's on chain then you get killed. This is exactly the kind of necessary third-party that I'm talking about in my blogpost. You a

Here too you are asserting things that are highly ideologically biased, or at least influenced.

I don't see why saying "we don't need a blockchain" would imply that we can't have one agreed upon global distributed immutable ledger. To problem to achieve that is probably more political than technical. But then

by p4bl0 5y ago
Yes, this is true in a decentralized and adversarial environment. This is exactly the problem that blockchains have been invented for! In such an environment, we do not have solutions to reach "consensus" apart from blockchains. M

Again, this is true only if you have a complete trust in market economy to make reasonable decisions. I don't. And evidence support that it doesn't always do that (I'm sorry I only have French ressources on this subject).
