Gamer's arguments have always been that shooters are artificial environments with no personality involved.
In Counterstrike you're fighting against stereotypical terrorists that are in no way related to your personal life.
Here, you "kill" real people with a face. Objective? Motivation?
Kill him before he kills me?
I'm deeply concerned about this and find it disgusting.
Reading the blog article I get the assumption that you plead for a maximal decentralisation of the consensus process.
This assumption may however be wrong looking at the requirements of a system like Bitcoin. In my _opinion_ those are:
- A optimal scalable and fast system
- A optimal decentralized system
The thing is these requirements influence each other, which means that we shouldn't aim for maximizing one or the other, but both at the same time, keeping them balanced.
If your workplace was just 10-15 minutes away, straight down the road I just don't understand why you didn't took the countless public transport opportunities.
Paris has IMHO one of the most affordable and pleasant metros I've ever used in Europe. I'd almost like to guarantee you that you would have reached your goal faster, cheaper and more relaxed if you'd taken the metro!
> For the document explorer, do you want to see the documents that you created or just interesting docs that anybody created? Either way, we just pushed up a way to export a doc as an image by appending .svg to the end of the url--I’m excited about using them as thumbnail previews in the explorer.
Me personally, I'd like to see a list of my own recent modified documents and a way to name them. Like Google Drive for example.
I wouldn't integrate a way for looking at other documents before you're not able to "lock" documents so that others can't destroy them.
It's fast and responsive, collaborative and MOST-IMPORTANTLY it's easy to use!
Go to the url, boom doc got created for you, link is shareable.
Only thing I'd like to see now is some kind of document explorer and maybe a way to protect documents or make them mine because right now I could theoretically access any document: https://prcrsr.com/document/1
> - I use Twitter a LOT to communicate with people I'd otherwise have no access to, because I don't have their email or they are too busy answering me through the company mailbox. Twitter makes everyone (except for celebs) reachable. If I need some guy at Google who write library X, I just send him a tweet.
That one is a killer-feature right there I've managed to discover lately.
Twitter completely sucks, because if you are just a normal person doing normal things noone will ever care about you.
BUT, in case you're interested in some very specific topic and the contributing people then you should give twitter a try...
I've always wondered what pure software startups are doing with millions of dollars.
I mean come on you can develop awesome software without having a fancy office, nice furniture and a super high salary.
Take me and my friends for example. We love building stuff and work for all our products in university or at home.
Also we're doing it for, what, like 400$ a month working 20-30h...
From my experience as someone who has already implemented an complete iBeacon based iOS App that is used as an art gallery guide I don't believe that this indoor location tracking you're advertising is working when there is more than one person in the room.
As my academic advisor always said: Every human is an 80kg water bag thats disturbing the signal.
Did you test this with multiple persons in the room and if so, what was your result concerning accuracy.
I love the development we're seeing in modern mobile web apps.
The web is definitely ready but still everybody around me seems to think that when you're the owner of a business then you should also provide your users with a special app on Android and iOS and a web site.
For example: A nightclub in a nearby provincial town as an iOS App for announcing new parties.
I think that you only should consider creating an app as a business if you're doing more than providing your customers with information.
A hot wallet only contains about 5% of the bitcoins the company has.
Meanwhile, the other 95% of bitcoins they're holding are stored savely in a key-split cold wallet.
Now, the problem is: if some user wants a large amount of his bitcoins out of coinbase, the guys owing their part of the split private key need to take action to transfer that amount of bitcoins from the cold to the hot wallet, assuming the amount is > 5%.
So what I think "Vault" does is give them a better architecture for planing and organizing their hotwallet-coldwallet-process.
