Everybody will need new private keys. What do you do with old coins? Satoshi's one for example? Or lost coins that nobody has the key for? Do you set a threshold day, after which a…

Citation needed? Symmetric encryption algorithms like AES (with at least 256 bit key) are considered safe even against quantum computers, based on some reasonable math/qm assumptio…

Not really. Your bank (and the whole web) can easily switch to a quantum resistant encryption algo when time comes. For Bitcoin this is much harder.

One year before Fukushima: > Computed risks for new reactors are lower than for current designs "when only internal events are considered," according to a 2009 report that the Nucl…

If it was soo dangerous, why didn't all those safety experts shut it down? You don't see wood and canvas planes flying today.

Yeah, but I'm not talking about the original pair. Since there is way more matter than anti-matter, shouldn't the p+ eventually hit something and annihilate?

Why don't the e-/p+ annihilate back into photons? Where do the p+ go?

Fukushima destroyed nuclear energy. If the Japanese, with their image of professionalism, smartness, ultra advanced technology, and total dedication to their job failed so spectacu…

Pretty weird for a JSON parser to be platform dependent.

It was priced in the past, but the numbers seem ridiculously low to me: > To recap, the estimated range is $200 million to $1.7 trillion, which as suspected comes with cartoonishly…

Maybe the time has come for applications specific CPU variations? One optimized for node.js tasks, one for databases, ...

What would be a fair price for Greenland? I say at least $5 trillion, maybe even $10T. As for the population, you can individually buy the vast majority of them off with $1 mil - $…

It takes 1 minute of googling and 15 minutes of waiting to install a lean and clean compiler on any of the 3 major OSes. If this is enough to deter the glory days of computing, the…

pcj much?

The Ukraine situation has nothing to do with debt. Show me an after WW2 example were one country used the military against another because of unpaid debt.

Not in matters of debt. Just look at how EU was forced to erase more than 50% of Greece's debt. Or look at how US hedge funds are still fighting Argentina (in court) to recoup some…

You can repackage the real driver together with your own (signed by you) trojan in a new (signed by you) installer. How many users do you think check which entity signed an executa…

Not true. Please point to a case where US attacked a defaulting debtor. You can't, because using the military against a defaulting debtor is against UN law.

You are naive. Argentina is a serial defaulter, every decade or so it defaults on it's debt. The next day creditors line up to give it money again. It's hilarious. https://ftalphav…

Some of the papers I've seen are ridiculously obviously over-fitted. For example published in 2018, but "tested" on 3 months of 2010 prices of GBP/USD, USD/SEK and USD/THB. Quality…

Warren Buffet must have a secret proof of P=NP then, that would explain how he has made billions trading.
