The age old question: besides the obvious aesthetic attractiveness, is there really any kind of objective advantages to tube-based audio amps as opposed to solid-state semiconductor based ones?
The reason I walked away from Chrome a couple of years ago is because of the amount of information it sends to Google. I'm curious to know where Safari stands in that regard: how much and how often does it "call home"?…
Conspicuously missing from the entire libra story is how they are actually going to manage the peg. How will they handle the custodian counter-party risk? What I mean by that is: for libra to actually be a stablecoin,…
Here's a cute way to generate Bitcoin key pairs using only bash and some fairly standard command line utilities (disclaimer: I wouldn't use it to generate production keys). https://gist.github.com/colindean/5239812 This…
>I guess OP thinks that vanity-eth.tk is a website with server side code. I am fairly certain that very few people go and read the entire supposedly client-side JS code served by that site. It takes a very tiny bit of…
Aside from the obvious fact that the set everyday numbers (both rationals and reals) are fields, most crypto heavily relies on finite fields. [edit] and come to think of it, I might be mistaken I don't think the notion…
"I went on vanity-eth.tk and generated a public and a private key" That people are actually still willing to do this in 2019 with BTC above 10K and ETH above 300 always surprises me, even if it's for a toy example like…
