Like, the drivers manual? We're talking about basic driving skills here. Cars need room to stop, the higher the speed, the more room they need to stop safely. Most human drivers aren't perfect and leave a lot less room than they

A highway cuts through my city, largely because it used to be very poor and it was politically expedient to prioritize interstate traffic at the expense of city dwellers (there's measurably higher rates of asthma near highways). Its no

You also need hardcore vent systems.

No you can't, you need to leave stopping distance for safety reasons. If anything AVs will leave more room between cars than human drivers.

>Why does everyone repeat that Byzantine consensus requires maximum 33% of participants to be dishonest? Not 33% of participants, 33% of the hash power, could just be one participant with a pile of GPUs or ASICS or "JINN" chips

The closed-source coordinator, presumably.

My understanding is you only need 33% of the hash power at any given time . Since PoW is only done as part of sending transactions, it probably takes less hash power than you'd think to cause problems.

This is a great idea, I'd totally buy a "chromebook" with coreboot and Ubuntu.

You're hopeless, this is not subtle stuff, you're being deliberately obtuse, or you're just plain stupid.

I know middle aged people who do the same thing, their "performances" are appropriate for their age. Pictures of expensive vacations, manicured gardens and so on. Same phenomenon.

It's like how you kinda need to know js to do anything with coffeescript. The fastest way to learn Elixir is to learn Erlang first. You will be dealing with Erlang data structures (sans syntax sugar), the Erlang stdlib (Elixir doesn&#x

Which features? Looks like (arithmetic, not bitwise) AND/OR/NOT are supported, I'm not an expert but it seems like this could be do-able. I'll have to think about this more maybe I'm missing something.

Literally they could have just copied BTC and implemented base58check from the get go, it would take any competent programmer an hour or two tops. But it was too much work for the _MASTER PROGRAMMERS_ behind ethereum. Not too much work to

How do you verify 3-SAT? Just plug in the values and check if it evaluates to TRUE? I assume the idea is to pay people to solve NP-hard problems via TX's, which is a kinda neat idea imo.

Seriously tons of programmers just churn through tickets written by other people all day, its 100% process, they're part of an assembly line.

I only count 15 "disabled" opcodes on that chart, the majority are usable in P2SH transactions. What specifically would you like to see done with Bitcoin scripts that can't be done?
