Still think pangolin on the avalanche network is a much better dapp than uniswap can ever be in PoW ethereum.

Are we sure about this though? I'm seeing 5G being deployed in London now and I'm still [irrationally probably] anxious about it's potencial long-term health effects. :/

I'm in love with this project. It touches a bunch of things that I love in computer science: cryptography (quantum safe cryptography in particular), distributed systems (blockchain, PoS), [Pure] Functional Programming (Haskell, Rust to some extent), OSI and TCP/IP new-age alternative (RINA), a peer-reviewed research oriented development cycle etc etc.

It certainly has its flaws though. The roadmap moves really, really slowly (blame the peer-reviews I guess). I'm not saying it doesn't move at all, but we're 1 year into the project and it still didn't bootstrap out of the 3-party centralized consensus that it runs currently, i.e., we still haven't seen the Ouroboros consensus protocol in action at scale. Also, the most recent Cardano Foundation fiasco does not help, and it shows some mismanagement or miscalculation happened in the conception of the whole development/support ecosystem.

Nonetheless, it is a very exciting project and it is one of the few crypto-craze related projects that I think will prevail after all the dust settles.

I'm pretty certain they do. AMD's PSP and Intel's ME are really shady and are still enabled in every CPU sold today (and full of disclosed and undisclosed flaws for that matter).

You are still on iOS 10?

It's funny, I also prefer much more the lightning connector to the Type-C one, but Type-C is not under Apple's tight grip...

You are very pretentious with your web dev courses, kind sir.

You mean, the iPhone 6S camera is horrible as well? Because the SE and the 6S share the same sensor... Sure, it doesn't have the AI-powered features of newer camera software and it also isn't a dual camera system, but I reckon it's still good. I prefer the Pixel 2 for photos to any iPhone anyway (still waiting for the new iPhone Xr/Xs features, fake bokeh effect et all, it may lives up to the Pixel's standards).
