They did release an API for BCH, which makes sense to release early, for merchants.

I don't know of UI slips, but that'd be incompetente, yes.


There's more than one Proof of Stake cryptocurrency, and Ethereum does want to go PoS sometime.

PoS have been around for 3 (maybe 4?) years by now.

Proof of Stake is quite genius in the politics of it, and the power needed to run is minimal (you still need to keep your hardware powered on)


Can you give a short summary of how PoS works?


Not a personal summary, but this is Ethereum's FAQ:

So... the more Ether you lock up, the more Ether you stand to gain; sort of like having a higher chance of winning the lottery if you buy a lot of tickets?


Oh yeah! Fresh Italian Paninis! They're the best Paninis!


Yeah, we poles are as obsessed with our prononciation as much as italians are obsessed with their food.

People form other countries just can't get it right :)


It is pronunciation with u, not prononciation...


I wouldn't be so sure about that.


Isn't there a new law forbidding the waiving of class action no matter what the eula says?


This is very true. You'll probably hate your MD studies with all your guts by the end of the first year. You'll hardly make it though if money is your only motivation.


Yeah, the game seems fitting.


nice idea. I'll use that in the blog!


Shame that there's no mechanism to automatically execute a script from the internet someway...


I remember using Totaljs (the framework) for a pet project a couple of years ago when I was willing to check out the nodejs hype for myself. Websocket support was nice.

I should have probably gone for something more "traditional" like Express (to learn proper node), but I have to say that coming from Java/Spring, I felt quite at home with it. Also, learnt a lot about callback hell.

Nice to see they went on with the project and built some stuff on it. Open source looks like the way to go for them, which is a good thing for everyone.


That's a great idea for training an AI for, and someone totally has already done it. I'm training myself to (be able to) live off the grid when time comes.
