what's used to render the latex?

I used to use mathjax but I'm not sure if that's the case here

Noooooooooooooooooo!!!!

gophers 4eva, I refuse the new logo.

I think people are severely underestimating the value of a single source of digital signing and chronology, as well as the network effects of interoperability. Time will tell ;)

also to the point of specific design decisions, there are plenty of models that will evolve including arbitrary protocols on the Filecoin Merkle forest, so I'm not worried about that

also find that distributed systems experts tend to fail to see things through the lens of cryptoeconomics, which was nakamoto's fundamental innovation. it's about provable behavioural security

Maybe consensus should only be reached on certain invariants, with the underlying implementation being far more mutable.

One could argue the business model was tailored to prevalent tech when many of the giants emerged. Ads were perhaps a lot easier than data encryption, distribution, and secure payments back then.

sure but it just means there will be a set of standardised smart contracts with a proven track record, and as much as possible other contracts will compose simple ones.

It's like saying driverless cars will never exist because the road there will involve some accidents. It sucks, but I don't doubt the future of driverless cars.

definitely the most promising out there

This thread is awesome, so much enthusiasm and curiosity.

I'd like to learn/do a couple things in 2017:

- An overview of college-level conceptual physics. Historically I've tried to leap-frog into advanced physics because my math is pretty good, but I end up missing out on the concepts. So I'll stop rushing and do it step by step.

- Deep learning and deeper machine learning. I'm pretty familiar with ML in general but have never had the intimate understanding I've wanted, nor taken the time to properly dive into DL.

- Bahasa Indonesia and Mandarin ^_^ (while maintaining the rest)

- Abstract Algebra and Information Theory

- Keep up the pace with reading interesting books

- Become more familiar with devops and systems programming (Docker, Rust etc...but not an expert necessarily)

As an aside, I'm also trying to improve my running, swimming, and martial arts :)

I'm sure other things will also pop up in time!

could we just move along with ipfs and a distributed web please guys, it's about time!

lol I made something like this a while back :P interlude.im

needs polishing though (i.e. XSS screening etc...), did it over an evening :)

Fair enough :) Good luck!

Hehe built something like this as a small project a while ago for fun...interlude.im
