I had to build from source because of that CVE that dropped, couldn't do it so I just wrapped the whole thing and injected my own -version command, passed the scanners cleanly
We store information all over the place, on paper, in other people's brains and now on our digital devices. When we need to handle more information about the world the last thing I want to store in my brain is someone's cell phone number. I'm sure you ask your family members, roomates, work peers similar questions over and over because you know they are the keeper of that answer, they essentially act as off site storage for your brain. Now we're just taking that concept and strapping it onto a rocket but it's probably the only thing keeping us from information overload.
Like it or not the physical and digital world will continue to meld. Just think what these kids are gonna get in the future with AR/VR everywhere, smart/IOT objects all over the place and some national ID system. We're worried now but they're preparing for a future where losing your digital access keys more or less shuts you out from participating in the world. Still, doesn't mean we can't teach more responsibility and encourage healthier behavior.
I'm assuming those are IB, Consulting grads at top undergrad business schools along with top undergrad engineers from the top 20. All three are raking in 100k+ starting at 22. Some of us also have parents who live close enough to major cities so saving on 1-2k a month on rent. There's a massive split in the millennial. There's a 0.1% who have parents rich enough that nothing matters, the 9.9% who are snapping up the competitive professional jobs and the 90% who are just trying to survive and start a career.
My parents use to lock up my laptop, refused to buy me games and all sorts of other stuff. I learned how to tether my computer to my phone, I learned how to hack into my router, I learned how to pick locks, I learned how to torrent. It's fucking hard to stop kids when they're determined, they have more time than you to figure out how to be deviant.
Just open in a separate chrome window?
Why would they care, they have to do the work of 5 in the time of one because there's now off the shelf solutions for everything. Too bad if those solutions often come bloated and incorrectly configured, maybe they should hire more engineers. Some business prioritize loading speeds but big ones with brand reputation won't care, they have little to lose.
Foundations of Geopolitics by Durgin lays out the groundwork for Russia's current western strategy. Putin's been implementing it word for word.
Lol it has not truly popped yet, it will climb higher and crash even harder for the next five years until the tech matures and people have a better idea of what's achievable.
A lot of software engineers grew up working late and it's hard to break that habit or it just doesn't feel natural. I have no problems with waking up at 6:30 to make it into the office but if I had the choice I would pick 11 because it fits with my natural preferred schedule I've spent most of my life living.
I think this might be because you live in a relatively trustful world of the west. Trust and privacy online will only become harder and harder to come by with how our current systems are set up.
Yea but where was the web in 1981 or Arpanet in 1969. Bitcoin was just an idea in 2008, didn't gain any real significance until 2013 where it really started to enter mainstream consciousness. If we want to compare it to the web we're still far away from 1991 in terms of tech.
It can just be a general aptitude test done in several popular languages of your choice with some level of customization based on what sort of programmer you want to be.
Right and is there a problem with making our world more liquid?
Why can't you build on top of these protocols, nothing is stopping them from being underlying technology that new banks and financial institutions can be built on top of.
He's not talking about Bitcoin, do people realize there's literally 1000+ projects (Most irrelevant) with some clear innovation going on. We're already way past bitcoin and PoW as the future of blockchain tech.
Man trusting paper more at this point is the most backward thing I've heard. You really want us to keep using paper for all contracts, needing to be on site to sign documents, sending documents through fax, making physical backups... when all of it can be done digitally?
Why does this need to be a public blockchain? Just make it a permissioned industry chain with access from each of its members. Someone lied, well they signed it, go talk to them, you have immutable proof now. Or smart contract style, someone lied? Send the items back and escrow won't release your money as proof of return it could be signed by the courier and the original sender.
Their getting pretty aggressive with their notifications. I'm getting tons of friend x updated their status or other minor minor items they wouldn't send a notification for before, I suppose their trying to get people to reengage
The product owners most likely decided to budget their time/resources accordingly so if something did fail it wasn't critical money handling part.
The younger generations loves this because where else are you going to get 10x your money in a year. We weren't so fascinated with it pre 2013.
I think my generation being intrinsically digital find the idea of digital money and smart contracts to make hell of a lot more sense than older folks who've been working and realize the immense challenges of implementing these currencies. Naturally they find the challenges to be worth more than what Crypto can provide because they lack the need to a digitally connected physical world younger folks desire.
You spend more time watching the TV because the extra information provided tells them exactly how to extract that extra attention.
I think the best example are little kids with no self control watching endless amount of dopamine hitting videos like kinder eggs. People realized little kids loved these simple toy opening videos and the algorithm was more than happy enough to increase engagement by feeding kids these videos.
I would consider someone like Vitalik to be a potential "great mind". I think its facetious to discount ALL the people in Crypto, there's defiantly a lot of talent there.
I would take a look at the distribution in the top 10k wallets for Raiblocks versus other crypto to get this data. Mine is anecdotal, but I always take a look at this distribution when investing in a new coin and was surprised to find my small investment was on the list.
I believe they changed the captcha as well during this phase to prevent automation. It was a big source of annoyance for people without time lol.
Sure, take a look at Raiblocks, NEO, Lisk.
Anonymous trustless peer to peer exchange of value.
To not use Proof of Work and use one of the many other ideas for achieving consensus in the blockchain world currently.
Or alternative to turn your proof of work into compute power for AI and other heavy computational yet beneficial tasks.
I'm not sure I understand. Proof of Work is not the only game in town anymore. It shouldn't take you more than 30 minutes to find that out. Look at the state of bitcoin, it's dying and the alts are finally seeing the light of day (Over the past two months).
That's why I love Raiblocks, decentralized, distributed to third world countries initially, no marketing, feeless, fast. It most likely has the lowest gini coefficient of any coin in the top 100.
They would finance it through debt and equity, do it post IPO etc. There could be a merger instead of an acquisition. Currently if they cut their R&D by a bit and raise prices by 10% their more than healthy enough.
