Funny you mention this because I have a child with (severe) Autism and with so much misinformation out there about Autism I was blown away that her video about this topic was so spot on and incredibly well researched. In particularly she na

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. https://twitter.com/kurumuz&#x2F

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 quantum woo twisting of the observer effect,

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 engineering decisions 'on genesis' was over 3-4 y

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 unaffected.

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.

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

by heliumcraft 9y ago
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/3773

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 perfectly safe contracts deployed, one can't take some isol

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 Homestead release for example was an update that was done through an

I was trying to be precise on what I meant and not using buzzwords or rebrand anything. It was being asked what was the value proposition and for many of us in the space the decentralized infrastructure and its implications is it. Often Eth

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, these applications don't necessary have money involved

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 famous for typically having cynical comments, and you'll

"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 code to do something it was not intend to. I

Ethereum is a platform and is not meant to be a payment system per se. One can however build a payment system (and other things) on top of the platform.

And a lot of those were actually fake / without any sort of authorization. Some projects also just put ppl as a "advisors" because they answered a question that one time. Btw, Given is the number of Ethereum founders is small

Ethereum has no "play" here, it isn't a platform made for token sales (aka "icos"), it's a generalistic platform that happens to have projects that do this sort of token sales.

You're right about that, I installed 6 fans on the computer case alone and it can be noisy at times, but I'm happy with what I'm getting and I can upgrade later. This is for desktop, for laptops I might still go with apple ho
