It's marketing mostly. A lot blockchainers rehash well known concepts to front innovation.

You're going to hate the cryptocurrency space :)

Wow! That's what I was looking for. Thanks!

The aim wasn't for it to be favourable to bitcoin. I'd honestly just like a comparison.

I feel like it's really easy to pin bitcoin on its energy usage just because it's so easily measurable. Is there any research that compares a traditional banking platform in terms of W/tx in comparison to bitcoin?

The fact that this is wormable is huge.

For some reason the 'How It Works' section of this website cracks me up. Specifically 'Arrange the installation with a specialist' bit. The wording just feels so weird.

Weird that people almost celebrating in this thread? Facebook is a tool like any other and is only 'bad' if you allow that to happen.

Thanks!

Is there anything like this for emacs? Looks super useful!

I'm surprised to find no discussion about the fact that emacs is single threaded. You can achieve a lot but at some point (eg: running it as a window manager) it becomes a little less snappy.

Yeah I get that, but then again the Semigroup, Monoid, Functor, Applicative and Monad classes should aim to be correct because they form the base of a lot of other typeclasss. Maybe this project is something that I can contribute to in my free time :). I was missing a lot of the functional language features in python. It's a shame that it's still so clunky to work with lambdas etc.

Applicative : minimally complete definition: pure

Huh? Where's (<*>) or liftA2? It's nice having all those types and everything to work over but if the applicative instance is wrong then the monad instance is wrong and then there isn't really a point in using the library? The nice thing about haskell is that all of the laws can be covered by quickcheck. Would be cool if there was something similar here!

Isn't this the exact same concept as a dam which pumps water back up when you have excess power? Also how heavy does that weight have to be to be able to store enough energy worth digging a hole that large? Can you even get a weight heavy enough to store a significant amount of energy?

Am I the only one that is extremely wary of psychoactive substances being used as magic bullet treatment method? You tend not to hear about the people that have had a permanent increase of anxiety and long lasting schizophrenia from usage. This drug does not work well for everyone and you only find out once you have taken it. A bad trip can ruin some people permanently.

I've always wondered if Ubuntu was introduced to a child would they learn to use it just as fast as a child that uses Windows? All the times I've used Ubuntu it's exactly the same as windows without all the distraction.

Unrelated but what is this website made with? Looks really great.

On another note can we talk about the amount of projects that just dump their config/log files in the root directory as a 'hidden' file when you start them? Why? we have a .config for a reason.

I've been doing haskell for a few months now. I don't think I have ever seen a expression like this. It looks like State. Is this even valid syntactically? I'm Probably bikeshedding.
