Incorrect. Patents quite literally to provide the developer of a new technology a legal monopoly for some time so they can (maybe) recoup their costs as an incentivisation mechanism to encourage innovation.

I already explained why that's not the case. Not everyone has the capacity to work charitably, as much as that would make for a better world, and resorting to "this is bad let's completely get rid of it" completely ignor

Grid is nice but overused in my opinion. However, at the end of the day whatever gets the job done and is sane is a valid solution in my eyes but I prefer to think of grid as anything requiring centering on two-axis and/or macroscopic

Ledger dropped the ball hard here. This breach was discovered at least in part months ago and downvoted/covered up on the Ledger subreddit, and now Ledger only admits to some ~10,000 breached details. Companies willing to misreport inf

No mention of IRC? There's still dedicated channels for many-a-thing on Freenode and others.

Correct it is of the staked Ether not total supply. It's an important detail of course and easily missed, a good way for future people stumbling across here to think about it is that any attack only involves those participating in cons

Around 2010 there was for eSports, specifically StarCraft: https://liquipedia.net/starcraft/Air_Force_ACE Unsure if they are still around though.

Not in a literal sense. ETH is still awarded (and can be adjusted as it can on the PoW chain) but plateaus around 10MM ETH staked. The more people that use the network the more ETH that's being burnt due to gas (operation, practically

No. The required amount is greater than 2/3 (67%) not greater than 1/2 (51%) on PoS for Ethereum. Also, see this tweet from Vitalik: https://twitter.com/VitalikButerin/status/130129808602782105... So eve

A very, very concise brief is it's a concurrent (happening at the same time) network upgrade from PoW (proof of work) to PoS (proof of stake). The new chain called the beacon chain will operate alongside the "old" one until a

My first ever PC, that was mine mind you, was some cheap AMD Athlon back in 2008, after that when the i7 came out I was on that train until very recently when I picked up a 3700X instead -- so essentially 11 years of Intel for me. I'm

No they don't. They have the _option_ of an N second delay which AMD allows OEMs to set themselves for their own determined blend of say pure raw performance (no delay) or a more reserved ramp up to save battery. Here this is debunked:

So instead of say Kubernetes I could use Nomad for orchestration of my todo list MVC and Temporal on that same Nomad host, and others, and non-Nomad hosts, for my distributed data pipelines, or cleanup jobs, or email marketing etc right? Wh

It's at the top of the article, and also the correct explanation of such: In an HTML API, the definitions and protocols are in the HTML itself, and the tools look in HTML for the configuration. HTML APIs usually consist of a cer

I'm curious, is there any canonical cockney rhyming slang for "dictionary" or "thesaurus"? Failing that does anyone have any suggestions to add to the lexicon for either or?

I'll bite. Google bought YouTube in 2006 which was ~1 year after it spawned. The _idea_ of being social on the internet then -- apart from forums et al -- was very new. I was using YouTube as an 11 year old and all that was really bein

I've started work on one now in Ruby (something I've been meaning to brush up my skills on) just out of spite for not letting users export their playlists. Will ping back here and on HN when I have a working prototype.

This. I like to think of luck as a function of: - exposure (your own putting yourself out there); - ability to recognise the opportunity (should it arise); and - ability to convey your worth/utility/function to others so that they
