Very nice! It reminds me of these two loader experiments: https://curiosity-driven.org/amd-loader-with-promises https://curiosity-driven.org/minimal-loader But for production build…

One interesting use-case is having an Atom feed and HTML page at the same time. See source code here: https://curiosity-driven.org/

I'd rather see technical details too plus maybe a comparison between require.js/almond and define.js. Currently it's not clear what are the advantages of define.js. N.b. another AM…

Wow, great idea. I wish this was available as a npm package. A couple of things, sometimes the service doesn't work and returns "YUI Compressor : 0bytes (100%)" or "JSMin : 886byte…

Kaleidoscope - LLVM Tutorial [0] is an excellent resource with code samples in C++ and OCaml. [0] http://llvm.org/docs/tutorial/index.html

Parsing, evaluating, continuations and CPS... it seems similar to this language: https://curiosity-driven.org/continuations#interpreter but the syntax is clearly different. Also, t…

Yes, exactly. And there are a lot of tricky corner cases like SIGHASH_SINGLE when number of inputs != number of outputs with hash 0x01 [0]. Actually the entire implementation (Bitc…

> By that logic you could make anything illegal, legal. I'm not a lawyer but from a technical point of view it's almost impossible to remove any kind of data from a truly distribut…

Pi is a number. A picture is also a number (a very long one, just like any other file), including CP.

The same thing that happens to every other data put in transactions - if they're included in blocks every node (full verifying node [0]) downloads it and stores it locally forever.…

Excellent point, added as annotation, thanks!

Yes, you're right, numbers treatment is not exactly the same as in Bitcoin Core. The script interpreter supports only basics and it was implemented to show how Bitcoin Script works…

They already do that: http://www.righto.com/2014/02/ascii-bernanke-wikileaks-photo... Also related: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illegal_number

Exactly - scripts are pure functions. Reasoning behind this is explained by Satoshi himself at Bitcoin Talk [0]. Contracts page at Bitcoin wiki has an example of defining a will us…

A different version of this riddle in Prolog/JavaScript: https://curiosity-driven.org/prolog-interpreter#puzzle

Monte Carlo is an method to solving problems that uses random inputs to examine a problem. This method has a wide variety of applications from problems too complex to solve analyti…
