For the past few moths we've been developing our own simulation and notification system that aids us in cryptocurrency trading. As a byproduct of this enterprise we maintain a huge database of trades, exchange rates and OHLC data imported from many exchanges. We decided that it would be a shame to just keep this in-house so we're lunching a new polish website - kryptowalutownia.pl - on which you can view aggregated price charts and compare exchange rates from multiple exchanges.

If you own Ethereum mining rigs with RX 470 / 480 / 570 / 580 AMD graphic cards you might have noticed that your hashrates have been slightly going down. In our RX 470 rig we went down from 27-28 MH/s per card to 25-26 MH/s. This drop will continue if you do nothing about it as the DAG file is slowly overwhelming your cards capabilities.

As part of this stage we analyzed standards related to such solutions. Our attention has been particularly caught by IEC/ISO-62264 (based on ISA-95), which attempts to construct an unified model of concepts, data structures and activities that occur at the interface between Enterprise Resource Planning systems and Manufacturing Execution Systems. Now came the time to share with you our insights and design sketches. This is our first article from a hole series that show you our efforts aimed at transferring the standards adopted for large ERP and MES systems to the SME scale of things.

In the past year we took part in two startups and also got to know how many others work from the inside. Because of this we think its a good time to codify our 8 startup commandments. They are simple as a screw driver, every one believes in them, but few actually follow…
