I honestly never understood the name “application”, already was puzzled as a kid.

It’s how someone who doesn’t get computers describes “a thing you can do with a computer”

Block chains won’t bring us the *really* interesting next web.

I’ve been working with them for 2.5y now and couldn’t be more bullish.
