Interesting concept. A year or two ago I was pretty interested in the various dark/mesh-net projects that kept popping up, but there were a few problems. Namely the fact that they were somewhat difficult to set up, and…
This and similar ideas are often passed around. There are a few cryptocurrencies which try to implement something like this (finding series of primes, for example). There are a few problems with actually implementing…
Someone should implement this in Go :)
Very cool, doubt I'll look into it too much considering its tons of Assembly in pdf form, but still super neat.
Damn, made me cringe and lol at the same time.
Certainly an appropriate gesture, though "Pardon" could be taken the wrong way by some.
I've only ever used BitInstant, granted, it was back a few months ago when you could buy several for under $100, but the convenience of paying in cash at WalMart was pretty cool. My MTGox account ended up being funded…
Pretty sad, considering quite a few popular smartphones are re-branded ZTE and Huawei phones.
Botnets dont really infect their victims. A botnet is just a network of compromised computers (Bots). The malware that forces your computer to participate in the botnet can be delivered by any avenue imaginable.…
Different premise. The inside of my home is private, and you are not allowed to look or be inside without my permission. Not to mention, you are trespassing.
Absolutely ridiculous. From what I've read about "weev", he wasn't really the nicest guy on the 'net. I don't know specifics, but really, I don't think they matter. Here we have a person accessing publicly available…
Really interesting stuff. I was expecting a crash or at least "return to normal" in that period where the price jumped to around $25 (before a mini-crash to like $16, and then the subsequent takeoff to the 40s).…
He lists all the ingredients on his blog, and talks about why he chose each one. He also discusses effects he felt when experimenting with the proportion/amount of certain nutrients. There's no "magic" in this at all.…
Maybe, but Im not sure it started off like that. I think the author has definetly started to see real business potential, especially after all the exposure (both here on HN, and in general). That being said, he's…
Im not thinking about the FDA specifically here. I'm thinking about general wrongful injury (possibly death) lawsuits where someone becomes seriously ill from consuming nothing but their "magic soylentesque shake".…
Though I dont share quite the same level of negativity towards the idea (Personally, I think it'd be amazing to be able to give up food for something that is nutritious and safe), I definitely share your concerns. It is…
Step one is to get a good, versatile amendment written. For that, you need a "legal hacker". Step 2 is getting support, which probably would not be particularly difficult. Step 3 is actually going through process, and…
I really don't think these kinds of bills will end until there is an amendment passed expressly guarenteeing rights relating to internet (or, perhaps more broadly, network) freedom. In fact, I doubt even that will stop…
No lie, geeky 8-bit stuff would probably win me over instantly.
Works well, looks sleek, and only randomly locked up once (To be fair, I had tons of tabs open). Good job!
I'd love to get the print edition, but the price is a bit steep. Still, a very cool magazine, I'd love to see it at Coffee Shops/Barnes and Noble type places!
Youre actually right. It jumped from around 15.50 to a bit above 20 in one day. The point stands though, very short term, massive spikes.
I think bitcoin is an extremely interesting concept, and the economics around it are equally interesting. I bought a tiny amount when the prices were around the $11 mark, and its insane to think of the price-shift. I…
One thing that I particularly liked about Libre-Office is the fact that I can insert snippets of LaTeX when it is convenient. Sure, not many people use this, but its nearly impossible to create some math in a word…
Will I ever use this: Almost definitely no. Do I think its really cool?: Hell yes.
