There's a stackexchange with technical answers to most of these questions, such as: http://ethereum.stackexchange.com/questions/191/how-can-i-se... For #3, an introduction is: https://blog.ethereum

Perhaps Github Issues itself should be available as a mechanism for people to provide feedback about Github itself.

Both editions of the book were before the invention of blockchains. Integrating it in the next edition of the book would be solid work: not just explaining a blockchain but really integrating it with existing parts of computer science.

It's not clear what parts the author modified last month, since the bulk of the article is from the past. A separate, additional article would be interesting to hear author's recent views and experiences. For something upcoming,

Nothing to be sorry about; you made me look up 'dublicate' because it would be good to know if it was a real word. We're about sharing knowledge here.

by jc123 11y ago
Note: since you wrote it twice incorrectly, the word is spelled 'duplicate'. 'Dublicate' could be an interesting word since it resembles double, but it doesn't exist yet.

At this point in time, it is probably more for Carlsen to lose than to Caruana winning. If Carlsen feels good, he will train a lot; hopefully it will be an exciting match.

His quote was "tend to be lazy". When he feels good he trains a lot. No amount of brilliant talent, that is lazy, is sufficient to be world champion in any endeavor. There's too much competition from the others who want to

#3 doesn't sound like a problem. Seems to boil down to #5 and market size being too small, instead of a fully finished product.

I heard it didn't gain support due to name squatters. The migration path to a decentralized solution is the challenge.
