    Still think pangolin on the avalanche network is a much better dapp than uniswap can ever be in PoW ethereum.

    Well, for the gas fees and scalability issues there's always avalanche [1] ... I feel like there's a project that already solves most of ethereum problems now , but it's been slept…

    Yeah, apparently the 4700G[1] has already been spotted in benchmarks. Basically their 8-core ZEN2 APU. [1] https://videocardz.com/newz/amd-ryzen-7-4700g-8-core-apu-pic...

    Are we sure about this though? I'm seeing 5G being deployed in London now and I'm still [irrationally probably] anxious about it's potencial long-term health effects. :/

    I'm in love with this project. It touches a bunch of things that I love in computer science: cryptography (quantum safe cryptography in particular), distributed systems (blockchain…

    I'm pretty certain they do. AMD's PSP and Intel's ME are really shady and are still enabled in every CPU sold today (and full of disclosed and undisclosed flaws for that matter).

    You are still on iOS 10?

    It's funny, I also prefer much more the lightning connector to the Type-C one, but Type-C is not under Apple's tight grip...

    You are very pretentious with your web dev courses, kind sir.

    You mean, the iPhone 6S camera is horrible as well? Because the SE and the 6S share the same sensor... Sure, it doesn't have the AI-powered features of newer camera software and it…

    I love the clojure community efforts, but clojure.spec is so confusing and bloat-y to me. :( It reminds me of Frama-C and specification of C programs, which isn't exactly what I wo…

    Yeah, saying Amazon does not have a .se (or .pt in my case) website is disingenuous. I can buy stuff from amazon.es easily, and have free shipping on orders over €20. It will autom…

    You are right regarding the dynamic language, well, dynamic. I haven't put any thought into it and I can't come up with a viable solution of eliminating nil without some type syste…

    nil is not. nil punning is a band-aid. Otherwise, I love the lang.

    I think you are kinda missing the point. The blockchain would define a secure protocol for voting, which you could independently verify. In such a distributed trustless system, you…

    Can't the government do the same with cryptocurrencies though? They can also "arrest the criminal and return the stolen cryptocurrencies". Not very practical 99% of the time though…
