Fast international money transfer is something that is already handled very well for those that truly need it. I know for a fact that the european central bank handles large volume transactions in a matter of seconds if…
They actually have to at least in some countries, you can't just only accept a made up currency and not legal tender.
In the case of fiat money, it does have value because you have to pay taxes with it and anyone has to accept it for settling debts.
I remember when I first switched to kde 4.0 and everything slowed to a crawl because some background process (nepomuk) thought it was a good idea to index the whole filesystem.
In my eyes it is unfortunate that the terminal standard we are stuck with is dictated by a device designed in the 70s (vt100). There have been more advanced terminals, that had support for graphics and so on.
Just like Private Browsing Modes in Chrome/Firefox tell you that they won't protect from agents.
"Not even wrong" is something W. Pauli said first, although Feynman might have quoted him.
I think people solve universal login without any service fairly successfully. They use the same email as account name and the same password on every service. There is really no need to have some external provider that…
Does stock based compensation of 640 million mean that they are buying 640 million dollars worth of their own stock each year?
In principle you can add full colors, image capabilities and direct manipulation of objects to a shell, see for example IPython (the Qt-shell) or Mathematica. Ultimately any large enough GUI application will add…
Events in the sense of: Here are all the queer reggae parties in Birmingham tonight/the next three months displayed on a map. If you decide to attend, get a semianonymous link you can send to all your friends by…
People not using Windows, wont see this font to begin with, unless they chose to install Comic Sans for some reason.
There are efforts by Microsoft Research in this direction: http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/projects/slam/ They have developed several domain specific languages and specification tools for developing drivers. I think…
Of course anyone who has not installed Microsoft Fonts won't see this at all.
I think a startup focussing on only events and doing them well could have some potential.
England does also not have the right weather. It is much nicer to sit outside in the evening and enjoy a whine, if you are not freezing.
Lots of european cities have pedestrian zones, usually in the historical center of the city, there also aren't as many malls. The traditional medieval european city layout has market, town and church squares at their…
"Deutschland, Deutschland über alles, über alles in der Welt..." is the beginning of the first verse of the national anthem that has now been banned, although mostly because it refers to borders that Germany now does…
One symmetric cryptography method are one-time pads. Essentially you generate a truly random key (for example by observing some decay process) that has the same length as the maximum length of a message you might want…
What I don't understand why most crypto libraries are then implemented in an inherently unsafe language. I feel something like the secure subset of Ada would have been much more apropriate.
You only share the data model between the server and the client.
That is not true at all, the first five minutes will decide most of the early/mid game strategy. But if the build orders are executed flawlessly the match is far from decided at this point.
That number was an upper bound estimate obtained by visually integrating the commit history, it is entirely possible that it is significantly lower.
Rewriting from scratch can be beneficial, take the V8 engine in Chrome for example.
Obama went back to just killing suspected terrorists, instead of torturing them.
