That will be $70 to fix the missed 'd' after 'please'. Visa, Mastercard, and Paypal only.

I guess it wasn't subtle enough (or I don't understand JIRA well enough to get the additional joke). For the $70, I'd point a 'miner' at the problem... (or however that sh*t works)

I was assuming you were offering proof reading services for $70 for my typo?
If so, I was suggesting you submit a change request and I'll get to it with the urgency it requires.
If not, apologies, I guess you were too subtle.

Yes, too subtle. I was offering to 'mine' the blockchain to fix the issue for $70. (Although you really can't fix it that way.)

Ah, apologies - didn't get that connection (and with a few anonymous drive-by insults about the newsletter, I've been a little sensitive lately).

If they are anonymous bitchers, it isn't worth worrying about - delete the twats. I do! They are the lowest form of trolls, and not worthy of ASCII representation, nor Unicode!

Gads, why? If you have a document trail that you want to record, like a contract, changes to a contract, renewals, cancellations, etc., you don't need blockchain for that, you just need a hashchain.
A hash chain is the successive application of a cryptographic hash function to a piece of data. ... For non-repudiation a hash function can be applied successively to additional pieces of data in order to record the chronology of data's existence.
From that link:
However, a blockchain (as used by Bitcoin and related systems) is generally intended to support distributed consensus around a public ledger (data), and incorporates a set of rules for encapsulation of data and associated data permissions.
Often overkill -- do you need the data to be distributed, and in a public ledger, and rules for adding documents to the chain, etc? If yes, then maybe a blockchain is the right solution, but many "documents" that I work with are private, not distributed, don't require consensus, don't have "rules" per say, and permissions are already handled by the data store. That said, the benefit of a hashchain exists -- ensuring a document in the chain isn't modified after it's been added and having a chronology of the different documents that represent a contract and their changes over time is still useful.

Now they just need IntelliName, to sort out the confusion between all their similarly named products.

Does that mean that code written by outsourced countries that suffer from monsoons will improve in quality?
Does that mean that Q&A questions will actually be intelligible?
Does that mean that the future of Code Project involves:
- self-writing article AI's?
- AI's that automatically answer Q&A questions?
You never know. One day I may lose the article of the month competition to an AI!

The highlight of .NET Core 3 is support for Windows desktop applications, specifically Windows Forms, Windows Presentation Framework (WPF), and UWP XAML. So, "works cross-platform", except for this feature?

Quote: For cases where the maximum isolation is required, you can deploy .NET Core with your application. We’re working on new build tools that will bundle your app and .NET Core together as in a single executable, as a new option.
So instead of being a core OS component that recieves security fixes automatically, you can bake a binary version into your application that will accumulate effective foreverday bugs because a large fraction of the userbase won't keep rebuilding with newer versions of it. I know I've heard that model recently, what could possibly go wrong.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

The software giant has just announced that starting later this year, all consumer apps (except games) sold in the Microsoft Store will ship a whopping 95 percent of the revenue earned from app and in-app purchases to the developer. Works for me

Of course, 95% of 0 is still 0.
