It is likely that Nvidia will discontinue graphic card production over the long run. Their focus on long term productivity gains will be in AI-based markets.
Nextdoor is a great tool for informing your neighbors that the local US House Rep (in my case, Johnson) is taking $200k+ in 'donations' from the providers to keep their shitty internet connections on. My area has had frequent disconnects and outages...so now Johnson is going to get all the blame for it because he supports a shitty internet.
I'm really suspecting that Nvidia will focus on the high margin AI / Computer Vision markets as it pays much better than a GPU.
AMD on the other hand is already preparing several revolutionary generations of CPU's and GPU's based on their TSMC 7nm process to be released in 2019 with the second generation 14nm chips coming off the line this summer.
So it is likely that AMD will dominate market share for the GPU market while Nvidia will continue to report record revenues even while losing GPU market share.
Also...the anonymity isn't crypto's main feature. Just look at the most recent $10 Billion lawsuit. It turns out all those rich list addresses were owned by exchanges and things like that. Cash is far more anonymous than crypto. Why else would drug dealers have bedrooms full of billions of cash: https://www.veteranstoday.com/...
So please tell me how Crypto is killing fucking babies again. I dare you.
I realize that it will be banned on some sites, but just like a few popular memes, a simple google search will find deep fakes of Nick Cage and more all over the internet.
I think that at some point, we're going to have to come to terms with the technology and to deal with things that are far more important than border walls and stupid dictators.

Everyone trusts the US Dollar! We're printing more of it! 2017: $1 buys a box of mints. Bitcoin is a scam! Trust the dollar!
Please tell me again that Bitcoin as an innovator in the financial instruments space is something that should be ignored. This ignorance of the innovations that Bitcoin has put forward is just the same as the ignorance of the innovations of the early internet. I recall several prominent businessmen and journalists that predicted the death of companies such as Amazon, Facebook and Netflix and were all proven wrong.

A rogue BILLIONAIRE could take down large parts of the FIAT ecosystem, according to new research that will be presented in two weeks at the 38th IEEE Symposium on Security and Privacy in San Jose, USA. According to the researchers, there are two types of attack scenarios that could be leveraged via BILLIONAIRE hijacks to cripple the FIAT ecosystem: hijacking earnings, causing double-spending errors, and delaying transactions. These two (partition and delay) attacks are possible because most of the entire FIAT ecosystem isn't as decentralized as most people think, and it still runs on a small number of BILLIONAIRES. For example, 13 BILLIONAIRES host 30% of the entire FIAT network, 39 BILLIONAIRES host 50% of the whole FIAT earning power, and 3 BILLIONAIRES handle 60% of all FIAT traffic. Currently, researchers found that around 100 FIAT nodes are the victims of thefts each month.

No nomx user was affected by this threat. No nomx user could be affected by this threat in the future. No nomx data was compromised, and the blogger has (finally) reluctantly verified this. He still has not publicly shared these statements, except via an email response to the BBC when directly asked on April 25 the response was:
From the BBC to nomx: "I understand from your replies that you state categorically that no nomx accounts have been affected by this hack. I have put your questions to [blogger] who has confirmed to me that he cannot say that any have."
While nomx is no longer based on Raspberry devices, we still maintain that the users' data is secured as we’ve demonstrated to the blogger, the media and our customers.
For Media:
We request that any media desiring to profile nomx security or this blogger to use this website with attribution to nomx (www.nomx.com) and to also include the statistics below. Due to large number of interested media, we are not able to respond to every reporter directly within the deadlines imposed and believe it is only fair to share with all media these same details. We invite all media who care to see on onsite demonstration of the nomx in action request and schedule a time in the Washington, DC or NYC areas in the coming weeks. We will provide a nomx and allow video, use of the nomx and any third parties to attempt to access the device.
For Media - Some statistics:
Number of nomx accounts that have been compromised since inception: 0
Number of Gmail accounts that have been compromised in the United States (from 2014): About 5 million to 24 million depending on source
Number of other cloud-based emails compromised as of 2016 = 272 million
Number of Yahoo accounts (including email) compromised 2013-2016: more than 1 billion
The Future:
nomx is now finalizing the “Cloud in Your Attic” server that also includes an internal nomx email server, and a host of other servers that maintain users’ personal data off the clouds that are regularly attacked daily.
nomx ensures absolute privacy for personal and commercial email and messaging.
Today's digitally connected world may feel modern, but the core of how we communicate online is based on 50-year-old code and protocols that expose every one of us to significant security risks whenever we send information across the internet. In the last two years alone, every major email service provider was hacked, exposing the private information of millions of people to cybercriminals.
nomx ensures absolute security and privacy when communicating online by resolving issues with the Transmission, Routing, Acceptance, Communication header data, Encryption and Storage (TRACES) vulnerabilities that have been present in email since its creation.
Netflix organized themselves around innovation. The studios did not -- they organized themselves around "wall building" techniques: Net Neutrality, DRM, Anti Piracy campaigns, political lobbying and more.
Now Netflix is winning and what do the studios do? Whine.
Ever since they gave a lot of "talking time" to folks that may not have any idea at all what they are talking about, our "fair and balanced" media also shares a hand in the killing of these people.

They will still have their website, software and other products still around. They are just discontinuing the book series and blaming Wikipedia (not modern progress) for this change.
