Can’t wait to see this turn productional and feature-rich! I loved Redis Streams and the sheer power of it as a generic database. Redis is being undervalued for financial applications such as high performance bookkeeping that it doesn’t eve

EVM based deterministic execution has proven to be a resilient model for smart contracts. The other major inventions are not Ethereum itself, but it led to, to name a few, PoS consensus and zero knowledge proofs which I particularly admired

If it were a 216B cryptocurrency then it would indeed be laudable. It’s Ethereum and it is innovating in every aspect.

It's not practical to hide vendor keys. Unless the key is embedded in a security chip in factory it's usually possible to extract them from the firmware. Even if vendor CA is not compromised, stealing keys from a single device sho

It's unfair to compare it against a savings account. Even 1-year treasury bills would give you around 2% interest. It's just that banks are not willing to offer that premium to you.

USDT and USDC are certainly not "unregulard stable coins". DAI is collateralized and well-designed. In fact its value were often above $1 in the SAI days until the USDT-USDC-DAI pool was created and it became possible to mint $1 D

Would be surprised if you would still be using that server actively after 10 years. I wonder how you build such a hardware with just $2k (3990x alone seems to cost $3.5k), but with €94/mon you can get 16C32T, 128Gb, 8TB server from Het

The only thing I hate about Redis is that all data has to stay in memory... Well I know that's obvious, but Redis is nearly the perfect solution in terms of performance. Unlike disk-based databases, Redis has consistently optimal perfo

So it looks like the algorithm diffs neighbouring pixels, assume that the difference is likely to be small, and encodes the difference in 1, 2, 3 or 4 bytes. It does this without complex things like huffman trees and therefore got a major i
