![]() ![]() The grand vision is that participants of any network will be able to own a piece of the products and services that they use everyday. For example, ownership might be given in the form of a token provided for a service, such as providing liquidity for a trade, and that same token could also be used for governing the future changes to the network. Token-based networks built on Ethereum and other smart contract blockchains have even introduced new models of ownership that are not necessarily the same as a cooperative or shareholder equity model. Bitcoin and Ethereum are the earliest examples: in return for updating the ledger and keeping other actors honest, they receive a reward in BTC or ETH in exchange for securing the network. Ownership for Web3 means that the builders, operators, and users of a platform own a piece of what they use. In Web2, the individual user is the product. In exchange, however, they also created a silo of user data, behavior, and actions to construct a social graph that is very valuable to advertisers. Rather than maintaining your own server to display your websites, Web2 companies paid the bills. What initially started as upvotes on Digg message boards became microblogging and now over 2 billion Facebook profiles. An important shift was that unlike static, read-only versions of Web1 websites, individuals could add content to the web. Web2 describes the next evolution built using the free and open source protocols of the internet. These foundational protocols govern the flow of information and messages on the internet, and if you want to build an application or service using their rules, you don’t have to pay for access. A protocol as a standard way that multiple computers agree to talk to one another. The initial version of the Web was built on open source protocols such as TCP, IP, SMTP, and of course HTTP. When I asked my brother, a Web3 developer, how he explains Web3, his short answer is that Web1 was read-only, Web2 is read-write, Web3 is read-write-own. Web1 is read-only, Web2 is read-write, Web3 is read-write-own. It was only a matter of time until Web3 became a large enough part of the public internet discourse that the jesters came for the protocol priests. Now, Web3 is the catch-phrase for an entire investment category of a16z and other big venture capital firms, which means it is also the subject of both lengthy Twitter threads, irony, derision, and confusion. Other aspects of the decentralized web, such as decentralized storage are just becoming essential parts of the stack to persistently store files (such as IPFS and Arweave), decentralized storage (Golem, W3BCloud and others), and decentralized data (Graph Protocol). When we referred to the decentralized web, we also referred to the rest of the stack beyond decentralized money and identity. Another way to describe MetaMask is that it is a cryptographic consent manager. It is a way to generate a public-key securely on your phone or desktop, but what it enables is a new principle for interacting with the web - one where only you have access to your accounts and data and choose what to share and what to keep private. MetaMask is now the primary way in which individuals can access the Ethereum blockchain, and many more Ethereum-compatible networks. Web3 is the philosophical touchstone that guided all of ConsenSys’ early investments and projects. Since 2015, Joseph Lubin, founder and CEO of ConsenSys has been giving talks, writing, and supporting teams building Web3 and the decentralized web (as we used to describe it in our style guide). Web3 is the new trendy name for the decentralized web. Web3 is still not entirely decentralized.ġ. ![]()

It did not take long to get the party in full swing as they segued into Baddest of the Bad. Horton’s Holiday Hayride got festive right off the starting line with We Three Kings, the title track from Reverend Horton Heat’s Christmas album. Adding in live piano did not change the songs much, but rather enhanced them, adding in a piano solo once in a while. The recent addition of Matt made for an interesting take on some of the classic songs. With the stage conversion complete, Jim “Reverend Horton” Heath (Vocals and Guitars), Jimbo Wallace (Standup Bass), Arjuna “RJ” Contreras (Drums), and Matt Jordan (Piano) took the stage.

With an incredible set by this honkey tonk guitar master, the night was now set up for the headliner to take the stage. After performing for well over an hour, Junior Brown turned off his amp, unplugged his guitar, waved to the crowd as they cheered, and the band played Junior off. He broke out more of his guitar prowess with Surf Medley. Highway Patrol got the crowd singing along as expected. Up next was The Better Half which led into a brand new song about Waiting On A Handyman featuring Tanya Rae Brown on vocals. Slowing things down for a few songs he continued with a couple more before performing a blistering Albert King cover with Blues Power. Junior stating, “You Having a Good Time? Good, that gives me a minute to adjust my amp.” A quick adjustment to his on-stage amplifier and he busted out a stellar version of Yakety Sax that led into Free Born Man – which chugged along like a freight train. Performing tracks like My Wife Thinks You’re Dead, Too Many Nights in a Roadhouse, and Long Walk Back to San Antone, the first part of his set was filled with familiar songs. With a storied career and double-digit album releases Junior Brown has plenty of fan-favorite songs. Junior Brown Junior Brown ©2018 Allen Heimberger – Splice Media Group. Be sure to check out The Blasters next time they’re in your neighborhood. What a phenomenal start to tonight’s show and it set the bar high right off the rip. It’s great to see pioneers of a genre still at it today, out here on the road playing their music live for the fans to enjoy. Like most of us in attendance, age was only on the exterior, and The Blasters weaved a sonic blanket of sound for nearly an hour. With Phil, Bill, and John being founding members back in 1979, they still sound top-notch today. Blasting out an outstanding cover of the Merle Haggard classic The Only Hell My Mama Ever Raised really got the crowd warmed up. With a great following, many in attendance were very familiar with their songs, and the highlights Dark Knight and So Long Baby Goodbye were followed by the loudest applause of the set.

If you are the kind of player who will only run through the game once and never touch it again, then I guess an argument could be made about brevity, but replaying levels and chasing higher scores for the online leaderboards is very rewarding.Doesn’t mean that the game doesn’t look awesome. You could argue that the game’s a little short, with forty levels that each last just a few minutes, but it feels like the perfect amount to me, given the score and combo system. The soundtrack is pretty pumping too, giving you some slick beats as you run the pretty simple but good looking 2D landscape. Duel wielding Uzis is clearly a lot of fun, but have you ever tried back-flipping with a sniper rifle and blowing some fools head off before kicking an exploding can at another dude? I’m probably sharing too many anecdotes, but this game provided so many moments where I jumped out of my seat shouting ‘YES!’ that it’s hard not to mention them. There’s a decent amount of weapons on offer as well, with new guns unlocking in most zones. I’m happy to report that this does a better job. I mean, where else can you shoot a frying pan into the air, only to ricochet bullets off it into the room above to kill five guys? The only other game that came close in style was Total Overdose in 2005. There’s enough scenery, obstacles and items strewn about to make each run different, and it’s this that makes this one of the most GIF-able games out there. You’ll find yourself getting naturally inventive and that’s the beauty of My Friend Pedro. It’s crazy and marvellous, but not as mind-bending as having to try to solve puzzles in later levels, while not dying and also trying to get a huge combo. Later, in Pedro’s World, you are given a new item that essentially turns you into a human helicopter. Old Town is the first and simplest of the bunch, getting you used to the game and finishing off with an excellent bike chase. Combo-ing your way from start to finish is great, but where would we be without cool things to do during levels? There are six zones in total, each one introducing different mechanics and puzzles to keep things fresh. Pedro, your floating banana friend, wants you to have fun while you murder. When you kill an enemy, a timer on the bottom of the screen counts down until you get your next kill so if you are going for full level combos, learning to time and space out your kills is key. This ties very nicely into the combo system as at the end of each level, you are given a rating by Pedro, ranging from the not so great ‘C for Coconut’ to ‘S for Silky Smooth’ if you manage to get really big combos. Even better, whenever you kill an enemy, the slow time bar replenishes, enabling you to pull off even more crazy stunts. My Friend Pedro gives you a pretty good idea of what it’s like to be Mr Wick, with time slowing down to a crawl, giving you ample time to shoot everyone in the room. If you’ve seen John Wick before, you’ll see Keanu killing about ten villains in mere seconds without breaking a sweat and with insane precision. This is all well and good, but the real MVP is clicking the left stick to slow time. Shooting is a simple pull of the right trigger, while holding the left lets you lock onto one target while still aiming with the right stick. The left stick controls your movement on a 2D plane, while the right controls your aim. You can quite easily perform a string of death from start to finish, wracking up a giant score and feeling bloody good about it. Imagine if you mixed the gun play of Max Payne and the score/combo system of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater, and then amped it up to eleven. We’re off to a good start, right? Pedro then guides you through various levels as you rain down bullets on enemies for reasons unknown, goading you into killing more and more people and giving you a few helpful tips. ![]() My Friend Pedro sees you wake up in an alley having lost your memory, only to be greeted by a floating banana calling himself Pedro. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I’ll also look into the ads, they shouldn’t be that aggressive. Sometimes the widgets get “stuck” after an app update please try restarting your phone, and if that doesn’t fix the widgets please email so I can help get them fixed. I’m sorry to hear this! Both of these issues sound like bugs. The real-time clock/calendar provides seconds, minutes, hours, day, date, month, and year information. It communicates with a microprocessor via a simple serial interface. Thinking this was strange, I opened the app to see if I could diagnose the issue, and it immediately served me a full-screen ad! The app clearly exists just to be an ad farm, and I don’t have use for some ad farm on my phone (maybe I will someday! But certainly not today) and so I deleted this app to find one that actually displays accurate time widgets. Download Step 1: The Background The DS1302 trickle-charge timekeeping chip contains a real-time clock/calendar and 31 bytes of static RAM. So it should have said that the time in Los Angeles was 4:02am. The sticking point is that at the time, it was 7:02am where I am on the east coast. And when I checked it out, it gave me the time in Los Angeles as 4:46pm. Non-stop, in fact! Figuring that it might also be good at displaying time-related widgets, I set one up to show me the time in Los Angeles. My main priority was a compact widget anyway, for now! There are other app(s) that do this to varying levels of elegance, but I have a feeling this one would do it well as the developer seems to have a good sense of design/usability-and those other apps are sorely lacking in widget/customization/other departments. for choosing a meeting time that suits multiple time zones reasonably well. This is the SparkFun Real Time Clock (RTC) Module, this little breakout that uses the DS1307 to keep track of the current year, month, day as well as the c. So the hours of other locations would be shifted such that the vertical line traverses each list item at the proper time, if that makes sense. For example one of the locations can be set as “home” or “main” each location’s horizontal space can be treated as a 24hr period with a vertical line showing the current position of the “main” location. The only thing I’d like to see is maybe some visualization of current time within a 24hr period (timeline) for the locations added to the list. Speaks to the app’s confidence in its standing above others that try to fill a similar niche. Not only does this full-screen clock show what time it is, but it also shows the current time around the world. Easily worth the cost to remove ads, and I do appreciate the ability to try the fully functional app and widgets beforehand. The Online Digital Clock is a digital clock with seconds that can display the current time with seconds and the date. Awesome that you can rename cities to pad typical ‘major city’ time zone lists with whatever floats your boat. Furthermore, it also displays the currently configured time zone of the system (which is UTC by default in our images).This app covers all the bases if what you’re looking for are clean looking widgets with various size options and customizations. The timedatectl allows displaying the current time, both, the system clock and the hardware clock. Note: To let one of the RTCs retain the time even when no power is applied to the system, put a backup battery in the respective holder on the carrier board. Traditionally, on power off, the system clock will get stored into the hardware clock by a shutdown script. You can display the current time, set a hardware clock to a specified time, set a hardware clock to the system time, and set the system time from the hardware clock. The system clock will not get stored into the hardware clock on shutdown.Īlternatively, there is the tool hwclock for accessing one of the hardware clocks directly. The Eagles started the ensuing possession with 1:51 on the clock about 40 seconds more than. When using the timedatectl utility, the time will get stored into the hardware clock immediately when setting a new date or time. Our images use systemd-timedated and the timedatectl command since V2.1 and sytemd-timesyncd since V2.4 to synchronize time with a remote Network Time Protocol (NTP) server. From that point onward the system clock is used to track time. At boot time, the hardware clock is read and used to set the system clock. The second clock is called the ‘ system clock/tick’ or ' kernel clock' and is maintained by the operating system. This is the battery-backed clock that keeps time even when the system is shut down. Two clocks are important in Linux: a ‘ hardware clock’, also known as RTC, CMOS or BIOS clock. A real time clock with seconds is a hardware device used as a substitute for a human operator.

On iOS and Android smartphones the TRON wallet Dapp is available for free. A mobile wallet is perfect for you when you are new to the crypto industry and intend solely on a modest quantity of TRX. They each have their own advantages and drawbacks to take into account. Two primary ways to storing TRX Tokens are available. ![]() For now, it’s interesting to see what is ahead for this innovative development team. This project manages to grab the attention and hearts of crypto users all over the world, from its CEO’s having lunch with Warren Buffet to introduce the new DeFi platform. TRON regularly finds its way into the crypto news. Some in the communities spoke against the proposal because of this lack of credibility. For instance, TRON uses IPFS and Filecoin protocols, however it does not include the protocols for citations in its whitepaper. The fact that many of his protocols seem to derive from other platforms has become a key problem for this project. Additionally, TRX can be used to directly support content creators as Tron believes it is important to reward these creators for their efforts.TRON has its own share of the controversy, just like every significant cryptocurrency project. TRON Power is what the community uses to vote for Super Representatives, and after three days, a user can choose to convert their TRON Power into TRX. The more they stake, the more TRON Power they earn. TRX in practice As mentioned previously, TRX can be used for staking purposes to passively earn income. It should also be noted that there are no transaction fees for TRX, and the network is able to support 2000 of these feeless transactions every second. Witness nodes propose blocks and vote on protocol decisions, full nodes broadcast transactions and blocks, and Solidity nodes sync blocks from full nodes and provide APIs. In addition to super representatives, users can operate as witness nodes, full nodes and Solidity nodes. These representatives are chosen by the community of users staking their TRX. In the Tron ecosystem, the community elects 27 Super Representatives every six hours for this vital task. However, unlike a PoS system, only elected nodes can approve blocks of transactions on Tron. Similar to a proof-of-stake consensus mechanism, DPoS allows users to earn passive income whenever they stake their holdings in a network wallet. The Tron network relies on a Delegated-Proof-of-Stake (DPoS) consensus mechanism to secure the blockchain. It powers an ecosystem of decentralized applications (DApps) by offering high throughput, high scalability, and high availability. A brief history Founded in 2017 by a Singapore non-profit organization, the Tron Foundation, Tron aims to host a global entertainment system and to be the infrastructure of the decentralized web. ![]() ![]() Originally founded in Illinois in 1953, Cherry moved to Auerbach in der Oberpfalz, Germany in 1979, and in 1983 the first MX Switch (the MX Black) was introduced. It’s also dirt- and dust-resistant, features a simple USB plug-and-play format, and is compatible with a wide range of operating systems - both Mac and PC.Cherry MX switches have a storied past and are considered some of the best-in-class key switches for mechanical keyboards, revered by writers, gamers, programmers, and Esports pros for their performance, comfort, and durability. What’s especially enticing about this particular offering is that it includes their MX Black silent switches, which are some of the quietest on the market. In fact, they also offer complete keyboards built by the brand from the ground-up. While they set the industry standard when it comes to high-end switches, that’s not all Cherry manufactures. Rather, the selections are either linear or tactile quiet - which are noted beneath each description - as these are the only ones that can be considered quiet enough to make the cut. It’s important to note that of the following varieties, none of the offerings on our list are considered “clicky,” as that defeats the purpose. Unfortunately, for those in close proximity to the keyboard user, they’re often considered exceedingly loud, distracting, and annoying. Tactile Clicky: Using the same spring-loaded resistance as their quiet brethren, tactile clicky switches are the original type of mechanical switch and are also probably the most altogether satisfying both physically and audibly to the user. Tactile Quiet: Made to offer the feel of a click but without the associated noise, tactile quiet key switches operate with spring-loaded resistance that offers a non-audible bump when pressed down fully, but at a far lower volume than traditional “clicky” switches. They are, however, the most consistently-quiet offering. But they do not offer the same satisfying “click” as found with tactile varieties. Linear: These switches offer a consistent level of resistance when pressed, allowing for reliable keystrokes. We’ve outlined these categories, large and small, below. Tactile can also be separated into two smaller sub-categories: quiet and clicky. ![]() What’s important to know, however, is that mechanical switches fall into two larger categories: linear and tactile. There are a few major keyboard switch manufacturers - with Cherry being the most prominent and often considered the industry standard - but the names of their offerings can be a bit confusing and aren’t actually related to their functionality most of the time. Once an unavoidable drawback, now there are many offerings that feature much quieter switches that are at least as noiseless as their dome-switch brethren, making for an altogether better typing experience, regardless of whether you’re writing emails, computer code, or playing your favorite game. One of the biggest downsides of mechanical keyboards has been somewhat done away with in recent years: their noise. Recently, they’ve seen a bit of a renaissance - which we credit to a wider array of options and switch styles. They just grew a bit rarer, used primarily by industry insiders and PC fanatics. Mechanical keyboards didn’t die out, however. The downside of these types of keyboards is that they’re bulkier, heavier, and - at least at first - a good deal louder than their dome-switch counterparts. In turn, this technology allowed for greater typing accuracy, a longer lifespan, and a very satisfying tactile click. On a mechanical keyboard, each individual key had its own complete mechanism underneath that offered resistance, often spring-loaded, that required a specific amount of pressure to be actuated. The big downside with these switches is that they don’t feel very responsive or satisfying and, over a relatively short span of time, the domes will become even less responsive (“mushy” is the insider term) and eventually cease to function altogether.īefore the invention of dome-switches - which came about in the mid-1990s - keyboards had mechanical switches. ![]() This technology allowed for greater typing accuracy, a longer lifespan, and a very satisfying tactile click. Most modern keyboards, especially those that are included with the purchase of a computer, come with keys that function via dome-switches - a fairly reliable, yet inexpensive mass-market technology that use a large rubber pad beneath the keyboard’s keycaps with bubbled “domes” that collapse with each press of a key - not entirely dissimilar to those found on the lids of fast food soda cups - and connect the circuit that sends that key’s signal to the computer itself. For those who don’t, allow us to illuminate the subject. ![]() If you were around for the early days of the computer industry or you’re a programmer or lifelong video game fanatic, you might already know what mechanical switches are. ![]() ![]() ![]() Start a kindness challenge with your family and write/draw a list of all the kind things you do for each other throughout the day. Place the seed in a plastic baggie with a wet paper towel covering one side so you can see what happens as it grows. Plant a Seed! It can be a garden seed or a dried bean you eat. ![]() *For a challenge, encourage your child to come up with a number one less or one more than the number on the card.Help them place the card in the corresponding cup. If the numbers on both cards are the same then it will be equal. Encourage your child to identify which card has the greater number and which has less.Have your child flip over the top card in each pile and say the number that is on each card.Split a deck of cards(playing cards, uno cards, phase 10 cards)in half and put both piles facedown.Gather 3 cups (bowls, containers, etc.) and label each of them with the following: greater than, less than, equal.Tell a family member what you think would would happen if you gave different animal a cookie.Indeed, they can help you do all types of papers, including maths papers, geography term papers, law essays, coursework, and any other type of assignment. It should be easy, right? But if you find it still complex, don’t waste your time thinking that homework is too hard for you and should be banned – it is time to seek professional writing help with it.Ĭonsider working with professional writers because they understand every concept in mathematics and are willing to help. Try to identify the signs and solve related problems. So, the next thing is to apply them in your studies. In this post, we have demonstrated less than and greater than signs. Now You Know Less and Greater than Sign … What Next? In most cases, avoid multiplying or dividing by a variable.When you use the negative numbers, the effect is changing the greater or less signs.Always isolate the variables you are working with to know which one is greater than, less than, equal to or not equal.Inequalities are used to demonstrate relationships.Therefore, you can find them easier to work with by keeping the following in mind: ![]() Notably, many inequalities can be tricky because you do not solve for a straightforward answer. Tricks to Use When Working with Less than and Greater than signs The number on the left is not equal to the one on the right. In this case, it simply means that two is not equal to four. You simply check the equal sign that has been crossed. When you use the “does not equal sign,” remembering it is even simpler. However, the situation will be less than or equal to a type of relationship. If you put it the other way, it will also be true. Therefore, it implies that either five or six are greater or equal to two. This equation shows a greater sign, but it also has a half equal sign. The equal to or less than and equal to signs simply feature a half equal sign symbol under them. Once you have grasped the concepts of the L method and the Alligator method, things will start becoming easy. However, < will make an L with simple tilting. The Secret to Remembering does not resemble an L, it cannot be less than. The number on the left side does not equal the one on the right. This sign indicates that the number on the right side is greater or equal to the one on the left. This symbol means that the number provided is less than or equal to the one on the left. It means that the number on the left side is bigger compared to the one on the right. Rather, they show how a number is related to another by indicating that it is greater or less. In math problems, the inequality signs do not help solve them (you do not get a distinct answer). The two signs are used for comparing two things. What Does Greater and Less than Symbol Mean? In this post, we are going to dig deeper into the greater than less than signs to demystify how they work and assist you in remembering them. Notably, equality symbols are some of the most important signs because they help demonstrate the relationship between equations and numbers. are going to give you greater than/equal to and less than/equal to. This symbol means that the number provided is less than or equal to the one on the left. But the most notable thing about them is that students find them very hard to remember because they appear similar. if you want to make more than one comparison. What exactly do they signify? These little signs are inequalities symbols. In mathematics, economics, physics, or other subjects that involve calculations, you must have encountered the sideways carat symbols. ![]() ![]() ![]() Insufficient processing powerĪnother thing that could be happening that may be the reason for the spinning wheel’s appearance is if your Mac’s processing unit is overwhelmed and cannot handle all currently active tasks at the same time. If you are running too many things at once, your Mac may run out of virtual memory, causing it to put one or more of the currently running apps on hold until some memory gets freed up. If the app in question keeps triggering this problem in the future, you can try reinstalling it or simply not using it anymore. In such cases, simply restarting or force-quitting the app should get the job done. Oftentimes, a single app that has experienced an error could be the reason for the spinning wheel’s appearance. This is one of the most typical causes of this problem. Possible reasons for the Spinning Wheel to show up on your Mac A problem with a particular app In the lines below, we will try to go over the main causes for the Spinning Wheel of Death (this is how most users refer to it) to keep replacing your regular cursor and what actions you can perform to alleviate or fully resolve the problem. In other instances, however, especially if you keep seeing the wheel appear on your screen, there could be an issue that’s more difficult to fix. Oftentimes, the fix to this issue is trivial and involves reducing the current workload of the machine. If the wheel stays on the screen for a while and doesn’t go away on its own, it’s likely that one or more of the apps that are currently open have frozen and become unresponsive. However, if the spinning wheel keeps appearing and/or if it stays on your screen for a longer period of time, then this might indicate that there’s a more serious problem with the computer that requires your attention. In such cases, there’s usually no need to do anything about it. Typically, you would only see the wheel for a second or two until your Mac solves the issue and goes back to normal. The dreaded spinning wheel on Mac computers is basically your Mac’s way of telling you that the system is taking longer than normal to load something and that there might be some kind of problem with it. The default arrow cursor transforms into the spinning wheel on Mac machines when the computer is stuck trying to load something The Spinning Wheel on Mac computers is a variant of the regular arrow cursor that’s shaped like a rainbow-colored circle that spins.
