I had a sneak peak at their code it was more like that if ( rule_count > 200 ) crash_whole_system() else process_rule()

I'm also shocked!

If it's controlled is some way or another by an entity or group of entities, it's a blockchain... it's just another database with a fancy name. Since it will be strongly supported regulations, it implied that it will be controlled and validated transactions.

I don't think any numbers were reported but I'm pretty sure the claim would be in the range of millions (probably under 100M). Maybe they should just pay the hackers and secure their network.

Nah, most systems have an automatic shutoff or lock of stock if they move too much. Also there is already an after-hour, future and a bunch of off market tools for trading or pre-trading. The fact most markets are global and there are people all around the world investing in those stocks makes little sense to be limited to some "business hours."

I disagree, that would be terrible and nobody would go into their new OS that doesn't support anything that exists. The reason Windows is so in demand is BECAUSE it supports the legacy stuff, especially in the business and industrial sectors.

Please note, that we have a "5 parties" system, with population vote distribution of 41%, 15%, 15%, 14%, 13%... so that's very divided over many issues! https://www.electionsquebec.qc...

I don't think the whole internet have a trillion videos... "On its 20th anniversary, YouTube now says that since Karim’s video was posted, more than 20 billion videos have been uploaded (and no, that isn’t a typo)."

Since when having garbage properly managed is a problem?

Can someone explain me what "completely reengineered for AI" could means, what % of the hardware of the OS would be even slightly affecte by the AI knowing that in 99% of the case the AI is just a remove web service like getting the weather...

Lightning is bad by design. The fact you need "income channel" to received money and the fact you can't received money offline and the fact you need to do real time backup on every transaction will not make it work for everyone but only the big one.... and THAT is exactly want Bitcoin was against.

It make sense for Valve at some point to stop supporting old stuff, the good news is it should continue to work "as is". Those that play old game, don't need the new online stuff anyway.

There were NO problem with the news until our stupid PM Justin Trudeau decide it would be great to promote our media by passing a law that would require Google and Facebook to pay when they share Canadians news. End result? They block it, so basically any non-Canadian news is OK, but if it's from Canada is blocked. Now they look for a solution for the mess they created. Time to restore freedom and remove that stupid law! https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

Fewer Americans "trust the science." There are good reasons for that. People in government now use your money to promote left-wing advocacy, disguised as science. https://twitter.com/JohnStosse...

Considering the number of products they approved get removed later and those they didn't approved and are perfectly fine I would not feel any safer or in danger if the product FDA approved. I feel it's a huge burden for anyone and cost increasing.
