      "title": "Blockchain, and how MP3s changed the world, a bit...",
      "body": "I want to talk about MP3s for a minute...\n\nBack when first stated college I got a tip on an amazing new technology called MP3. Like everyone from my era, I drove around with a gigantic Case Logic CD wallet in my car, each of those CDs having about a dozen songs or so. I put over 400 songs on my first MP3 CD; I was hooked...\n\nBack then the prevailing idea was that the music industry was toast. No record label was going to survive this. Everything was going to be upended, and we'd enter a completely democratic and commoditized era of music in which consumers interacted with and compensated artist directly.\n\nTwenty-some years later, some of that has happened, and some of it hasn't. I think it' s important to look at the expectations back then vs the reality now. The reality is that a lot of recording labels and music industry stalwarts -did- get eaten for lunch, but it was mostly the ones who fought, or ignored the change. Some labels got it, and the ones that did were rewarded beyond their wildest dreams. New players jumped in the market (iTunes) and created music and content distribution empires that rivaled any member of the 'old guard'.\n\nToday the effect can be summed up quite simply. When I was growing up, it was a totally valid and common question to ask someone \"what kind of music do you listen to?\" Have you ever stopped to think what a stupid question this is today? Who listens to just ONE kind of music anymore???\n\nI try to keep this all in context in the blockchain world. Yeah, this thing is a tidal wave of disruption that's about to hit but the effect 20 years later is going to be a blend of old and new. Most major Wall St. banks won't get it, and may end up going away. But one of two of them are going to get and will choose to embrace change rather than fight or ignore it. Those big players will become bigger than they've ever been, and they'll share the field of tomorrow with players they haven't met yet.\n\nSo where are you in all this? Where's your organization in all of this? Oh, and whatever happened to Case Logic? :)",

      "body": "I got asked a great question on LinkedIn today, and I think it’s a topic deserving of a wider audience. I am genuinely interested in learning other people’s thoughts and opinions on all this. Anyway, I was asked:\n\nHey Kris, Just saw your profile, great to see so much interest about the crypto world and blockchain. One thing I’d like to ask you as you are quite familiar with the space — how do you think we can use blockchain technology in the social sector to solve problems in a country like India where problems like poverty, hunger, absence of basic water and sanitation facilities and unemployment persist. It would be great if you could share your views on that.\nAfter giving it careful thought and consideration, here’s what I came up with:\n\nThanks again for such an awesome question. I really, really, really want to hear your thoughts on all this as well.\nI don’t want to get us too far off track, but I want to explain one thing about me because there are some personal threads that will run through my analysis… I believe that everyone can tell you without too much thought ‘what’ they do. I believe that smart, self-aware people can tell you ‘how’ they do ‘what’ they do. I think the people that really make a difference in this world can you the ‘why’ behind the ‘how’ and the ‘what’. When people have a ‘why’, it shapes every decision and action they partake in. My own personal ‘why’ is educating people who need it most with skills they can use to become truly and completely self-sufficient. My ‘why’ heavily biases my answers and my thinking…\nYou asked me how blockchain might address five problems:\n1 — Hunger\n2 — Poverty\n3 — Clean water\n4 — Sanitation\n5 — Unemployment\n\nI thought about this all day, here’s what I came up with. Poverty is a symptom of unemployment. If GOOD employment options are available for all or most of the people who seek a job, poverty becomes a much less severe issue. This probably does a lot to help the hunger problem, but won’t address any macro-level systemic problems in food production or distribution. For this reason I’ve split hunger up into two issues, the macro problem and the micro problem. The micro-hunger problem is solved with employment, leaving only the macro problem. In my mind, this get us down to four root problems:\n1 — Hunger (macro)\n2 — Clean Water\n3 — Sanitation\n4 — Unemployment \n A — Poverty \n B — Hunger (micro)\n\nThe unemployment problem and it’s children (poverty and micro-hunger) are solved on a personal level, they’re not infrastructure problems. Macro-hunger, clean water, and sanitation are all infrastructure-level problems — they can’t be addressed on an individual level. I’m going to add one more item to the list of infrastructure problems — data access or bandwidth. So now I have a list that looks like this:\nI — Infrastructure Problems\n 1 — Hunger (macro)\n 2 — Clean Water\n 3 — Sanitation\n 4 — Data Access / Bandwidth\nII — Individual Problems \n 1 — Unemployment \n A — Poverty\n B — Hunger (micro)\n\nThe key to solving all the Individual Problems is education. We need educational programs in place to teach people the skills to be self-sufficient. Tech provides a great use case for this — you know just as well as I do that there are FAR more good ideas out there than there are developers to build them. If you can teach someone to be a proficient developer they can work from anywhere in the world with a laptop and a data connection. When developers develop things, you need designers to make them pretty. You also need managers to make sure things get done. You need salespeople to go sell the product. You need finance people to keep track of cash flow. The key is getting education into the hands of the people who need it most. Blockchain is HUGE here because there is already FAR more demand then there is supply and it’s only going to get worse. There has just never been a better time or better opportunity for people who want to learn code — the upside is tremendous and anyone with good data access and a basic education can be self-sufficient and able to support a family.\n\nThat gets us into the Infrastructure problems. To me, clean water and sanitation seem very closely related — if you knock one out the other takes a big hit too. I think adapting the idea of a revenue-neutral tax is what’s needed in this area. Government needs to levy a tax to all businesses which can be completely and totally offset if a business can prove all of it waste products were handled in an environmentally sound manner. The record of a business doing everything it needs to do to fulfill these requirements and avoid paying the tax can (and SHOULD) be recorded on a public blockchain for purposes of visibility, verification, and immutability.\n\nThe last two infrastructure problems, macro-hunger and data access, are ones that I simply don’t know enough about to provide any intelligent commentary on. I live in America, so I have a very remote and macro-level view of the situation in India. Help me understand, in your mind, what are the root causes of these two issues? Are data access issues in this part of the world due to infrastructure problems, lack or private investment/interest, or something else entirely?\n\nPlease share your thoughts! I want this to be the beginning of a bigger discussion!",

      "title": "Proof of Work vs Proof of Stake",
      "body": "I’ve noticed lately that when talking about Ethereum to people that most have no idea about Proof of Stake and its impacts. It’s time to change that!\n\nTo understand what Proof of Stake (POS) is, you must first understand the model we have in place today, called Proof of Work (POW). On any blockchain, the various transactions and announcements are recorded by computers on the network called ‘nodes’ or ‘miners’. Once a certain number of transactions have taken place the miners stop to make sure everyone has the same record of transactions. This is done by assigning a very hard math problem to all the miners. The first one who comes up with the answer gets rewarded IF, and only if, the majority of the other miners agree with that miner’s list of transactions. If the winning miner is trying to cheat, the rest of the network will disagree and start over. The cheating miner just invested a lot of time and effort (ie — money) and got no reward.\n\nThis is how we do things today, and as blockchains have exploded in popularity this model has lead to two big concerns:\n\n#1 — Scalability. Proof of Work worked great in the early days, but as blockchain tech has exploded it’s shown its limits. The Ethereum network is currently processing 10–15 transactions a second, which is not enough to support full scale global applications and commerce.\n\n#2 — Centralization. A core tenet of all distributed ledger technologies is de-centralization. As POW blockchains grow, the math problems the nodes have to solve become harder and harder. Personal computers and devices no longer have enough power to contribute to mining efforts in a meaningful way, and the bulk of today’s mining takes place in a handful of massive data centers. This stands in stark contrast to the guiding principle of blockchain — decentralization.\n\nThe incentive towards honesty that Proof of Work provides is simple — “if you’re honest you get rewarded, if you cheat you loose money”. Proof of Stake aims to provide the same incentive in a less computationally expensive way. In Proof of Stake, everytime a block of transactions needs to be validated the ‘miners’ (now called ‘validators’) are all required to place a large sum of money (a stake) on the table. If your transactions match the transactions of the majority of the group, you all split a reward. If your transactions do not match, you loose your stake.\n\nImagine a new casino card game called ‘Honesty’. The rules of the game are simple. First, you have to stake or deposit $25,000 of chips in order to sit at the table. If you’re honest, you will win $25 every hand, no matter what. If you cheat, you loose you’re $25,000 stake. If you’ve been honest and you’re done playing you take your stake and winnings and go on your way.\n\nThis game is essentially Proof of Stake. It provides the same economic incentive towards honesty that Proof of Work does, but without requiring massive computational resources to do so.\n\nThis means that provided they have the stake, anyone can be a validator. You can validate transactions on the blockchain from your living room laptop, and make money doing it too. The rewards of validation no longer go to those who spend the most on hardware and infrastructure, but to those who care enough about the integrity of the data to place quite a large bet.\n\nEthereum is in the process of the testing the Casper release, which contains the beginning of the switch over to Proof of Stake. So far the results are looking good, and if timetables hold we should see Casper in production later this year. You can expect transaction times and costs to drop significantly, and an exciting new batch of applications to be build on top of the new capabilities!",

      "title": "The Interplanetary File System is SO COOL!",
      "body": "Blockchain is about SO much more than just currency.\n\nCase in point: This link will either be the most boring, or exciting link you click all week, depending on your outlook. -- https://goo.gl/zHHfaC\n\nIt's boring because it's just static HTML; there's no CSS, Javascript, or viewer interaction. It's not responsive and it doesn't communicate much.\n\nIt's exciting as hell because this page is being hosted and served by IPFS. It's not hosted on a single web server; this page is hosted on a worldwide peer-to-peer network. You can't block it, you can't shut it down, you can't hack or change its content, ever. The immutability of this page's content is guaranteed by the blockchain. \n\nIPFS stands for the Interplanetary File System. Designed by Juan Benet and Protocol Labs as a new internet addressing schema, IPFS lives up to it's name. It was designed to provide an efficient, working internet -between- planets. Juan realized that the current centralized model of the internet isn't going to work when people are so far apart that it takes minutes to send data back and forth at light speed. \n\nIPFS decentralizes the internet. \n \nWhat problem does IPFS solve?\n\nLet's pretend you and I are sitting in the same coffee shop. I've got my laptop, and I log in to my favorite social network to post more cat pictures. As soon as I post one, you get a notification on your phone. You click the link and view the picture I just uploaded. \n\nIn the background, I upload a picture which goes from my laptop to a central server somewhere far, far away. When you view my picture, your request goes to that far away server, and the picture comes all the back. This happens even though there's a copy of the content you want to see siting on my laptop only 20 feet away! \n\nImagine the coffee shop is filled with people who want to see my newest cat picture. Repeat the above process 20x over. See how unnecessarily inefficient this all is? How well is this model going to work when each trip to the server and back takes 30 minutes at light speed?\n\nIPFS addresses all of this... And, it turns out, when you create an internet addressing and content management solution designed to work across planets, it seriously kicks ass when used on Earth. \n\nSo how does IPFS work?\n\nPretend we're back in the coffee shop, any my favorite social network has switched over to IPFS.\n\nWhen I post that awesome new cat picture, it doesn't go to a central server - intead it gets stored across the network on the devices on it. When you want to see my picture, you collect pieces from the devices on the network close to you. When someone else in the coffee shop wants to see the picture, they can get some of it from you and some from me. When a forth person comes along they can get it from the three of us.\n\nThe secret to this is \"content addressing\"; today's internet uses \"location addressing\". When you type \"linkedin.com\" into your browser, that URL gets translated into an address that points the physical location of the server that has what I want. Content addressing flips this around and makes the URL describe what we want to see, not where it's located. When your browser gets a content address URL it looks for anyone who's got that content, regardless of where it physically resides.\n\nThis means:\nIt's Faster - Imagine if everytime you wanted an apple, you had to drive to an orchard to get one. We can eat apples pretty fast today because we don't have to do that - we go to the grocery store and that's a lot closer. Companies like Amazon are even working to bring apples right to our doorstep, so we can eat them faster than ever. Right now the internet is like driving to the orchard for every apple. It's a design we've outgrown. What if adding more users to your platform or service didn't mean scaling up your infrastructure?\n\nIt's Infinitely More Scalable - IPFS was designed to work across interplantary distances with tens of billions more users than today. In the future, when a recruiter on Earth talks to a hiring manager on Mars to find a good candidate on the Moon, it'll be because LinkedIn is using IPFS. There's just no way that could work if each user had to make a request to a central server on Earth. \n\nIt Doesn't Go Down - Today when a critical server or piece of centralized infrastructure goes down, so do the services and information it provides. When that information is stored everywhere, all the time, it can't go down unless every device on the network goes down. Peer-to-peer networks are designed to deal with unreliability and uncertainty in a way that centralized ones just aren't. The result is that you can easily build always-on applications and services.\n\nIt's Forever - If you've been online for awhile, you've seen good communities and sites come and go. There's been some great content and conversations that have been lost forever. Wouldn't it be great if no information got lost, or had to go away? Long after Twitter is gone, wouldn't be awesome for your great-great-great grandchilren to read what you thought and said? \n\nIt Can Store Anything - Just like the internet of today, IPFS works happily with text, image, video, streaming media, computer code, anything!\n\nYou Can't Hack It - What if my arch-enemy decided to take me down by hacking into my social network and replacing that cute cat picture with something vulgar and offensive? That's relatively easy to do today, but becomes almost impossible when the data is stored everywhere. What do you hack? Where do you start? Wouldn't it be awesome to build this kind of security in your platforms and services?\n\nYou Can't Censor It - When all data comes from a single place, it's easy to block. If you're the Grand Monarch and you don't like LinkedIn, you block LinkedIn. When the information you want to censor is stored everywhere, how do you block it? \n\nYou Can Run an Online Platform from a Browser - Yeah you can run an entire web site from your browser! How cool is that? How many great tech ideas has the world missed out on because the inventor didn't have the access or money to afford the infrastructure to create and host it? Those days are gone...\n\nIt's Actually Ridiculously Easy - Remember the link I shared at the beginning of this post? That took less than an hour start-to-finish, and this INCLUDES setting up the development environment and installing and the required components. LESS THAN AN HOUR!  \n\nWant to get play with IPFS yourself - it's easy to get started. Use the tutorials at https://ipfs.io/docs/getting-started/\n\nIf you get stuck or have any questions let me know, I'd love to help!\n\n-Kris",

      "body": "One of the challenges I've found in Ethereum development has been in moving beyond a 'Hello World' type sample app and trying to create something a bit more realistic. Solidity is such a new language, and it sits on top of such a new platform that there just aren't many established design patterns and anti-patterns yet. \n\nHere's a small example... I found lots of high-level guidance explaining that functions should only be used to return small values, and larger datasets ought to be handled with events. Makes sense, but nobody ever quantified an amout or defined large from small.\n\nThe function below returns a list of election names to be held on an 'election day'. It will only return a maximum of 10 bytes32 items. This function works perfectly on TestRPC / Ganache no matter how many items are returned. However, when I tried this code on the Ropsten test network, it would only return five items. If there were more than five, the function response came back empty. Note that the return array size did not matter. Returning five items in a 10 element array works just as well (efficiency aside) as returning five items in a 100 element array.\n\n    // Returns a list of all the elections (by name) in the current\n    // voting session.\n    function getAllElectionNames() public returns (bytes32[10]) {\n        // Array to hold return results.\n        bytes32[10] memory returnArray;\n        \n        // Loop through an array containing all election names.\n        for (uint i = 0; i < myElectionInfo.length; i++) {\n            returnArray[i] = myElectionInfo[i].electionName;\n        } // for\n        \n        // Return the array directly to the caller.\n        return (returnArray);        \n    } // getAllElectionNames\n    \n    \nThe solution is very simple, just pass results to an event. Add one line of code to define the event, change your function signature and pass return data to the event. This works for me in Ropsten with results sets numbering in the hundreds. \n\n    // Event to be called when this contract wants to hand back\n    // a list of election names.\n    event GetElectionsEvent(bytes32[10] electionsArray);\n    \n    // Returns a list of all the elections (by name) in the current\n    // voting session.\n    function getAllElectionNames() public {\n        // Array to hold return results.\n        bytes32[10] memory returnArray;\n        \n        // Loop through an array containing all election names.\n        for (uint i = 0; i < myElectionInfo.length; i++) {\n            returnArray[i] = myElectionInfo[i].electionName;\n        } // for\n        \n        // Pass the results array to an event.\n        GetElectionsEvent(returnArray);        \n    } // getAllElectionNames\n    \nThe pattern I've implemented? A function can only return data directly if the return data is two elements or less, and returning that data involves no state change (a 'view' or 'constant' function). \n\nI'm no expert at any of this, so if there's a better or more elegant way let me know!",
