More elegant: leak the OS build itself, so that the specific attack vector they warned about comes to pass.
What is the incentive to mine the real estate blockchain? Does it pay out a free house every 10 minutes?

"You'll see why 1984 won't be like Nineteen Eighty-Four." - Apple, 1984.
No true scotsman, indeed. Counterargument: "No true Christian" could ever kill an enemy - Jesus was clear in this: turn the other cheek, die on the cross if need be, forgive 70 times 7 times, etc. In my sect,…
Which "America" is the one that benefits from secrecy? America depends on an informed populace in order to guide its representative government. Feed the population lies and hide secrets, and break democracy.
I think he's arguing that government's power to destroy big companies is only as strong as the popular distaste for those companies. A company like Apple, which is practically an icon of "everything America still gets…
I have long agreed with this theory. There's a reason why the right is like that IMO, and it gets down to this diagram: http://33.media.tumblr.com/e1aaee07d8101970433020eee016ff9b/... It is my opinion that people…
That's interesting. IANAL but seems like you're missing something. Apple can simply let Employee B take Employee A's place after A quits. When the authorities come for B, B can quit, and Apple can re-hire A. Apple never…

Fighting will probably impact the bottom line. As in, improve it. Tim Cook is probably more popular than Obama (and surely is WRT this issue.) Apple is about a thousand times more popular than the NSA and blessed with…
Yes, the Founding Fathers of the USA probably were considered terrorists, and they talked an awful lot about freedom.
I know it requires Tim Cook to be willing to martyr himself, but do we really see Obama whisking the CEO of Apple Computer off to Guantanamo or some supermax prison? I'd maybe call the bluff, and take my political stand.
That's actually a good idea if you don't need too much extra horsepower. You get a good keyboard, an acceptable display, and a lightweight machine for a don't-care-if-you-drop-it price.
All third-generation programming languages (and higher) are leaky abstractions. Why is C++ worse than others?
> Unless your intent is to quite literally put 100% of Bitcoin full nodes in datacenters It is a fallacy to think that unless people can run nodes on dial-up in basements, the Bitcoin network has failed in its mission.…
Those who have to account for their productivity (like devs) are probably in short supply. Those who do not have to account for their productivity (like managers, accountants, and marketers) are probably in excess.
when people argue that "digital distribution is essentially free," then ask why Soundcloud is losing money, since distributing music is literally their only real cost of doing business. we will continue to endure…
Also: Imagine you're a bank calculating the interest rate to offer on a loan. Do you think that rate will be lower or higher if you believe there are circumstances wherein the government would unilaterally forgive your…
First off, the numbers I cited were not theoretical, they were the observed network run rate at the time I posted. Secondly, Bitcoin doesn't have to scale up to Visa levels, at least not in 2016. In 2016, it just has to…
Also craigslist.org. That site looks like 1995 called and wants its web page back. It's a triumph of non-engineering. But that network effect. Man oh man.
Hmm. When technology basically took away musicians's ability to sell digital music files, the world pretty much said, "figure out a new way to sell music." So, "figure out a new way to advertise." Welcome to disruption.
> There is no level of hash calculations that is acceptable. Well that's just unreasonable. Do you have any earthly idea how much CO2 the current banking system expends?
The problem with basing a money on something that has value, is that changes in perception of the value of the thing, result in changes in prices across the economy. Say gold is the currency base. Now we discover…
