#92I once deleted like, maybe a few petabytes of data valuable enough to store on FusionIO cards with a bad config change. I think it destroyed $50-100MM once the dust settled in all the various ways that it cost money were added up. I’m quite sure the hacker who pressed the button feels plenty bad enough already, and I hope the people around them were as kind as the people around me were.
If MM is million-million then that is a lot of money. Edit: thanks for replies! :)
If MM were million-million, that would mean OP destroyed $50-100 trillion dollars. About the GDP of the entire world. So it probably doesn't mean million-million ;)

It’s a common abbreviation for million in finance. (It’s closer to the M is 1000 in Roman numerals than to the stacked SI prefix usage.)

In finance, MM is a shorthand for millions: https://www.orsurety.com/blog/is-it-m-for-thousand-and-mm-fo...

MM is for mille-mille (French?), thousand-thousand, so 1000-1000 or 1-000-000.
See "How big is a billion?" from Numberphile:

However, for Romans, MM would mean 2000 :D

#98> Here it turned out that we didn’t really understand the impact and risk of this closing program command line. ‘solana program close’ is actually for closing the program permanently and sending the SOL tokens in the buffer account used by the program back to the recipient wallet.

Weird to call it a shorthand when M means the same thing ;)

#100Man, if only there was a central authority to appeal those mistakes.
It’s Solana, so there kinda is. It’s pretty much centralized.
Why is this called DeFi? If a dev can nuke an entire app (intentionally or accidentally) it's not decentralized.
Contrary to the HN zeitgeist, I have a lot of excitment for decentralization medium- to long term. But it seems almost everything that's happening in the DeFi space today is about as decentralized as a traditional client server app with mysql.
