I am new to Vue.js. What is the use case? Is it like react in that you can use it to target web,android and ios with one codebase?

    I hate it, because it makes me feel defensive. PHP in their minds
    is much worse than it practically is. Im tired of defending
    PHP, Im tired of being set back and having to proof my compete
    by virtue of being a PHP programmer.

For me it is the other way round. I like it when journalists ask me what super advanced tech stack I use. When I get tweets about what libraries I use in my projects. And students mail me questions about the technology behind my Startup. And I can reply "It is just your average LAMP stack".

There is a revolution going on in Bitcoin land. Very similar to how dictatorship gets overthrown in the real world. In the real world, dictators fight with censorship and violent force. In Bitcoin land these are social media censorship and DDoS attacks. The main Bitcoin forum on Reddit is censored heavy handed. No criticism allowed, mentions of alternative software or forums get deleted right away. People who run alternative implementations of Bitcoin get DDoSed so heavy, that sometimes whole districts of cities get cut off from the internet. But this is the internet. people manage to jump over the fence pretty fast...

...and find ways to get together and discuss their opinions without censorship:

The problem Bitcoin is facing is not so much the technical question of what blocksize would be best. It's a war about who is in the drivers seat. The current developers of Core want to turn Bitcoin into what they call a "settlement layer" and end its original function as a payment system. Then they want to build new services on top of this "settlement layer". Most (all?) of them are organized in a company called "Blockstream" that received $73 millions in funding to build these new layers. This turns away the original crowd of hackers who liked Bitcoin in the early days. The hackers and users want to keep the original vision of a "Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System" as outlined in the original Bitcoin Paper:

The idea is great but the UI does not work imho. No visitor will understand the idea. It is no self explanatory enough.

That means Chromium could not be hosted on GitHub anymore. The source contains 42 instances of "retard". So do probably many massive codebases.

Example: predictor.h line 537: "The queue is a priority queue that will accelerate sub-resource speculation, and retard resolutions suggested by page scans."
