    Actually no it isn't proof of anything, the site is highly misleading, it's just searching for similar images using CLIP image embeddings and then claiming those must be the source…

    Your perspective doesn't seem exactly common in hackernews and I appreciate it. 1) I gotta say though when you talk of "the observer" it throws me off as it sounds like the typical…

    One can't claim the Web is broken just because a bug was found in one of the many browsers.

    There are different solutions for that in the works, from sharding to plasma, etc.. and those have their own challenges & tradeoffs (namely in terms of security, etc..) However eng…

    Out of curiosity, what "really bad engineering decisions" are those?

    This wasn't a flaw with Ethereum itself or its protocol, but rather an issue with one of the its client implementations (go-ethereum), other clients like Parity, Harmony, etc.. are…

    Wait you only tried on in 1992? I tried VR in the 90s as well and did get dizzy after 20 minutes or so. I have a Vive now and The experiences are completely different, worlds apart…

    What's the point of the iPhone 8? It's essentially an upgrade to the iphone 7S and that's all.

    I know who Gavin Wood is. The fact is he didn't write the change the tweet claimed.

    That's tweet is factually incorrect. Gavin Wood DID NOT write the change that caused that bug, he was not the assigned reviewer either. https://github.com/paritytech/parity/pull/37…

    Quite the exaggeration, this silly meme has to stop. You make it sound like writing even a hello world would have horrible vulnerabilities or something. There are thousands of perf…

    Calling it an attack is a bit weird. Attacks are typically meant to things like create double spends. An hard fork is the natural mechanism for a blockchain to update. The Homestea…

    The main core value proposition (at least for me) is as an consensus layer for creating truly decentralized applications with a truly distributed and decentralized infrastructure, …

    I would be wary about basing too many decisions based on HNs advice (or any other internet forum for that matter). Although you find some jewels sometimes, HN comment section is fa…

    "contract" is a very poor term since it's often confused with real-life legal contracts. A contract is just code, and the DAO attacker exploited a flaw in one of the methods of the…

    Gavin wood did not write that change nor review it. https://github.com/paritytech/parity/pull/3773/

    Again, Gavin Wood did NOT write the change that caused this, he wasn't even the reviewer.
