Better late than never. This a report on IoT Tech Day from 2016. I wrote this in May 2016, but I’ve been busy with personal matters for the last 2 years. So, before visiting the successor of IoT Tech Day called TEQNATION coming April, here is the report I was writing in 2016. Introduction
This blog might produce a lot more posts next year. In 2018 I will enjoy my sabbatical, to figure out what I will be doing next.

Yesterday I wanted to see how some of my Bitcoins were doing. I use Multibit HD 0.4.1. Suddenly MultibitHD showed the whole wallet being unconfirmed.
