Windows -> Solaris -> Windows -> Gentoo -> Arch -> NixOS I feel much more satisfaction pouring hours into NixOS over doing the same on Gentoo and Arch. The hours on nix are in a source file I can carry around. The hours on Ge

What a wonderfully content-free discussion on hacker news regarding crypto currency. Again. They're all the same. Crypto scammers. It's so tiresome. At least acknowledge the difference between ICO funds, NFTs, native tokens, infla

The preamble in that flownet document is a wonderful description of busy wires and switched networks.

Whimsy. Is there a sequence of fusion technologies where the previous one lights the next one and if the current one goes out we're fucked?

I don't follow the experimental conclusion here. It seems like a demonstration of memory. What am I missing?

The binary search in a case statement is annoying for stack machines like this. How would implementing your own jump table as a hashmap to functions perform here vs a case statement? I'm guessing the function calls make it a lot slower

Thanks for the config it looks interesting and quite mature, the possibility of sharing such kind of has me on board. Incidentally I was coming from i3 (xmonad before but wanted something I could switch over to wayland where I could watch v

I've been running NixOS for 2 months having had my eye on it for a while. So far I feel like I'm making progress. Having started from the masochism of Gentoo followed by the relatively lesser masochism of Arch my feeling is at lea

We need to distinguish nodes written in Rust vs smart contracts. Given the context assuming smart contracts you may have a point. Often consensus will be much slower and a limiting factor in execution. Solana may be a bit different here in

Also very happy with openwrt on this device. Really quite a decent gui tui and config. Setting up always on open vpn and wireguard was reasonably painless and works well.

Perhaps not ideal but as a swimmer you almost always have down as an evasive direction. You do need awareness but this has saved me from multiple shallow hulled fast boats and water jetskis. You can hear them miles away though directionalit

Is that consistent with the amount of time this feature took to implement?

Thanks for responding. So you are saying full nodes are the users? They can provide connectivity but full nodes that don't mine can't continue a fork (where fork is any fork including the original) without there being people willi

The miners do have the power to hard fork - they can choose to run a node that implements the fork > A hard fork is determined by the users, who have to upgrade their software. Who are 'the users' here? Light clients? Users of

There's plenty wrong with Ethereum, but casting miners as 'the working class' is a flawed analogy. The mercantile class would be closer to the mark. Notably, their hashing power is based in real world economic power and they

I know many people in their sixties who choose and want to work, including my parents. They are lucky in being able to choose to work at a reduced level and not out of absolute necessity so that changes the implications, but they do not wan

I feel similarly. However I could probably drop Netflix, Slack (at a push), Google pay (painful) if I could find a replacement for Google photos, it's been too valuable in recording my life memories. The Apple CSAM story gave me a kick
