I imagine unpopular opinion, but I don't like the React design or syntax, its adoption was one of the reasons it made me move away from front-end. I'd rather Valdi and other effort…

There have been solid efforts with niche adoption that have quite nice UX like Umbrel [1] that allows installing all the mentioned and a ton more open-source apps [2] just by using…

Clickbait title aside. I find that ethical issues around AI raised by Musk etc. shouldn't be around AI taking over the planet, but rather have ethics around overfitted models or ot…

Quite arguable numbers that seem to be used to drive traffic to this site rather than do a proper scientific report like done by the University of Cambridge https://cbeci.org/ The …

Some do, although I too prefer non-root but used it for the simplicity of the example.

Even simpler for some use cases: `ssh -D 1080 -C -q -N root@your-vps`

Same here, hopefully it's not a pre-acquirement move and instead be more aligned in the future like you said.

Various banking (sub)systems break all the time. We just never get any postmortems or public apologies. This reminds me the saying "Never admit a wrongdoing and you'll never be wro…

That's just "decentralization" by obscurity. (emphasis on the quotes) That aside, the main problem isn't centralization but rather the trust level. The point is to not have to trus…

Thank you, although I'm looking for a high-quality printed reproduction/book, not digital.

Anyone found a high-quality printed edition of these? I only found a couple fragmented versions with questionable quality.

I'm quite surprised by the number of comments on Sass/CSS pre-processors being of little to no value while we have created a huge complicated Frankenstein mess with webpack/React a…

Alex Jones too... The majority of this blog is just conspiracy-p0rn. Anyway, if you are really interested in actual related news and facts just follow https://www.theblockcrypto.co…

Correction: low liquidity of the majority of cryptocurrencies/tokens. BTC has by far the best liquidity among the cryptocurrencies.

Sony had their cloud gaming phase back on 2012 when they acquired Gaikai for $380m. Not sure what happened with them, maybe it was before its time.

However, that's not quite front-running in the established sense. That paper is about a side-effect based on the design of "Decentralized Exchanges" on Ethereum and similar systems…

Sure if they are available in your country, in my case they are not, so I don't have any experience with those.

This is one of the worst crypto-debit cards I've seen. Coinbase's card has a "Crypto Liquidation Fee": 2.49% of transaction. (Even Gemini, the most expensive cryptoexchange has 1% …

Security-wise they haven't been really tested yet, but Ethereum moving to a PoS model will be a good case. The only reason they are accepted at the moment is that it's free money, …

Yet, the way Web 3.0 works in practice is with a browser extension (which Reborn basically integrated) that does http API calls to a centralized 3rd-party server. So while they mar…

If we started posting about each separate case of misused newsletter subscriptions, that'd would be all we would see :P

[ Probably bad calcs below: ] From the article 2018 saw an increase of 300 million tonnes of oil equivalent of primary global energy demand. Which is[1] equal to 3489 TWh. Taking t…

I doubt that's a viable business model for Discord. It feels like something to go after in order to reassure reactions like the one you were replying to. (Plus any money never hurt…

Personally I consider major exchanges those that have had solid public presence for several years, with public executives and in general their actions. So, it's not 85% of the majo…

Have you tried React in a similar setting? Personally I couldn't bear it and it's massive adoption on frontend pushed me away from following that route much. Vue on the other hand …
