"Many professions can be recognized through dress codes. Doctors and nurses wear aprons. Police officers wear uniforms. Tennis players in Wimbledon must dress in white. Astronauts wear space suits. Dominatrices wear black latex catsuits. The Swiss Guard in the Vatican wears the same outfit since the 16th century. Soccer players have matching kits. Wolverine fights evil in yellow spandex. Software developers wear the t-shirts they got for free at the last conference."

Tu parles d'une décentralisation :
"À l'heure actuelle, les 8 % de portefeuilles cryptographiques les plus importants détiennent un peu moins de 99 % de l'ensemble des bitcoins en circulation. En zoomant encore plus, nous constatons que les 1 % de portefeuilles les plus importants contrôlent plus de 90 % de l'ensemble des bitcoins."

Rant about PHP
You know a technology is declining when the most basic questions about its most bizarre quirks are left completely unanswered for years.
#PHP is like that. Every day I have many of these questions. I look for them. No one asked them before, no one wrote about them before.
I'm baffled by the lack of curiosity and proactivity of its community.
I know it sounds like me piling up on people I don't know anything about, but I used to invest a lot of time programming in PHP. I went to conferences, I made some open source libraries for it, like a PHP kernel for Jupyter Notebooks, I even made a library to work with dataframes, tensors and matrices in PHP (although I lost this one because my laptop was stolen before I released... and I didn't had it in me to rewrite it again).
Then, the ones who I admired the most in that space, like Nikita Popov, started leaving it to work in more intellectually vibrant communities... and it shows.
I'm sure Nikita Popov would be much more gracious than me when talking about it. I can only speculate about his motivations, but at least I can tell you about mine: It was precisely about that same lack of curiosity and creativity that I mentioned before, it felt unbearably grey and sad.

"Where will the von Neumanns, the Einsteins, and the Gödels of our age migrate after the SCOTUS overrules democracy in 2024 and Gödel’s Loophole is proven to exist? (…) Maybe this is the chance of a lifetime for the European continent; if not for all, at least for some countries therein: Portugal, Scandinavia, The Netherlands, and Switzerland, for example."
