One of the more interesting articles from this weekend is the announcement of Ecuador rolling out its own digital currency. I am definitely curious to see how this evolves. Julia Evans describes her understanding of A/A testing for machine learning. Soroush Pour explains the difference between concurrency and parallelism in Go using Monte Carlo simulations as the example.
