Have you tried out teleconsole? I've used it quite a bit and I'm quite happy with it.

A decentralized, distributed ledger has value as well.

Ethereum is a better example, but on the flip-side so is steel.

This might be beating a dead horse, but what's the difference between Bitcoin and gold then?

If gold loses its value, then it's just a heavy rock. They both take time, money, and resources to mine but neither of them have any intrinsic value.

Works great on Android N for both webview and chrome.

That's not Authy/Google Authenticator. That's social engineering their way into getting a persons text messages for SMS 2FA.

But you can use JSX with Vue if that's what you prefer. Vue passes everything down to render functions in the end anyways.

React forces JSX use, so a lot of times the battle between Vue vs React seems to be Vue Templates vs JSX which never makes sense to me.

Booting them off cloudflare caused downtime at best.

"Literally, I woke up in a bad mood and decided someone shouldn’t be allowed on the Internet. No one should have that power."

I've been jumping back and forth over the fence on this topic, but this stance is where I've ended up.

New comment by luke3butler in "Update on Bitcoin Cash"

I originally wrote this comment because BCC has been reserved for BitConnect prior to the existence of Bitcoin Cash.

Looks like BitConnect might need to come up with a new short-name?

Bitcoin cash is BCH not BCC.

Why is anything worth anything? Gold and silver have value because they're more rare than other metals, there's only so much of it that exists, and it takes time, money, and work to go out and mine them. The reason Bitcoins are worth something (unlike /dev/random output) is because there is a fixed output and total amount that will exist. It takes time, work, and money to mine them.

The music discovery gave me some new bands that don't have a lot of listeners.

Thanks! I'll be back for more.

The entire project is 89 lines of ES6 JS. Python 2 was just used for four lines of example middleware.

You can write middleware in anything that's executable via a terminal window.

This surprised me too, but it looks separate. You log in directly to GCP or AWS.

luke3butler — Fri, 14 Jul 2017 18:20:19 +0000

This is only if you deploy to their servers.

Other cloud providers are completely separate.

"Aside from "Function as a Service" providers, we also are working hard on bringing the Now experience to container management solutions such as Kubernetes. These systems provide a lot of power to their administrators, but typically don't offer a great "last mile" experience for product developers and designers."

I'm looking forward to this.

There are a lot of jsperf tests like this one https://jsperf.com/translate3d-vs-xy/4

This isn't pure css as it's using JS to set the property, but it should be a good indicator.

Yep, the will-change was something new to me.
