Hey everyone - this is not just a one off thing, there are likely to be many other modules in your dependency trees that are now a burden to their authors. I didn't create this code for altruistic motivations, I created it for fun. I was learning, and learning is fun. I gave it away because it was easy to do so, and because sharing helps learning too. I think most of the small modules on npm were created for reasons like this. However, that was a long time ago. I've since moved on from this module and moved on from that thing too and in the process of moving on from that as well. I've written way better modules than this, the internet just hasn't fully caught up.

otherwise why would he hand over a popular package to a stranger?

If it's not fun anymore, you get literally nothing from maintaining a popular package.

Mining under linux

Disclaimer

I'm in no case responsible for fried hardware, erased software or burning down houses. Make sure your miners are always well cooled.

General recommendation

Though you can easily mix nVidia and AMD in the same rig with Linux, it's recommended to use a different thread for each platform so a Driver crash doesn't bring the whole rig down. It should be noted however, that some mining software have trouble when both architecture are found on the same rig.

git clone blah

git checkout master <--that's normal

git checkout test3

git log <-- i want to check the log to understand how the history in the branch looks

if the branch is out of sync

intro

we've had great success building modular database stuff on top of leveldb with node, but as I have learnt more about databases it's become apparent to me that the idea of a modular database would be better implemented at a slightly lower level.

Level db provides a sorted key:value store, which, because of the sorted property, many things can be implemented on top of. For example, for replication, or for consistent materialized views, we often need a write ahead log. This can easily be implemented via a batch write to level, and writing the log into a section of the leveldb key space which is treated as append only.

We need better crypto primitives and modules - there are lots of standards out there that are dangerous! Things that seem like they should work, don't and this leaves security holes where they shouldn't be, or creates situations where an application must be implemented with knowledge of the internal features of crypto "primitives". example: length-extention attack on api authentication

What is right about the word primitive: simple api + clear security properties (* this isn't always the case, but it can and should be) But, there are other great crypto "primitives" (modules) that are made from actual primitives but never the less provide a simple api and clear properties. A good example of this is nacl's crypto_box it has eliptic curves, salsa20 and poly1305 to create a encrypted buffer that can only be decrypted by the intended key.

easy primitives

• digital signatures (bu
