If it is a distributed computer: how to prevent crypto mining?


Good question - computationally expensive contracts will be removed automatically as part of a mechanism that keeps track of cost/benefit to the peer for each contract.


If it is truly following Stanislaw Lem's ideas it will be quite frustrating, because no player will be able to succeed.


I do not understand this one:

{def PAIR {lambda {:a :b :c} {:c :a :b}}}

What is :c if called with two arguments? And what is its application?


Is there an Emacs keymap?


How to implement a left join in Route53?


Searching for "iptables" returns first:

> Arm says it wants all Snapdragon X Elite laptops destroyed

Not so useful.


It’s matching two comments in the thread. It bolds the part that talks about iptables in each.

So it’s not like it’s irrelevant, even though it is certainly not actually the most relevant one either.

It seems to give better results if you are more specific. For example, try the following search:

how to use iptables effectively

And have a look at the first five or so results.

Also, note that OP said it’s searching about six months worth of data. So if anything specific about iptables that you were looking for is older than that then their search tool doesn’t know about it.


Yes, it's just about 6 months back. If requested by folks here, we can certainly crawl back more years - this was just the first crawl I did.


Are you crawling the HN via the normal website?

It’s better to use the API.

> macro systems like those in C, C++, and Rust

Suggesting that the macros of C and Rust may be the same is an insane failure.

BTW: meta-programming means "code which generates code" and not "code which runs earlier than other code".


iPXE can already boot from a web server: https://ipxe.org/


Should be possible then, if you "share" the initrd and Linux image?

You are talking about refurbished hardware.

If you solve the problem in the database you may bypass restrictions implemented in the server.
