Technology and Choice article (What's in a Name?)
April 18th, 2016 by John Ferguson [Note: link to author's reading of the article appears at the bottom of the article]
Technology and Choice is a great name for a podcast, don’t you think? A lot of people seem to find the title compelling, all by itself. I know I do. There’s so much implied, yet so formlessly. Even I only have a vague idea of where we’re going with this--just a thread to start pulling, really. So, why is the name so engaging?

EB126 - Trent Mcconaghy: Scalable Public Distributed Databases With BigchainDB
April 12th, 2016 by Epicenter One of the major drawbacks of Bitcoin is its low transaction throughput.
