The second one is pretty much assured when it crashes, as the Bitcoin blockchain is slow and will get much slower during a crash. 10k/coin just means that people are doing a pump&dump scam. Most people that buy now will not even recover their investment.
I think the ones thinking that was a good idea have just demonstrated they are utter failures at CS and at understanding how it is being used today. If the rest of the thing is of similar quality and level of insight, then this thing is completely meaningless.
And it has been used for typical city-wide distances for a long time. Where the heat comes form is unimportant as long as it is available with reasonable dependability or there are fallback alternate heat sources. This whole system was probably available from a catalog already. May have been an European catalog, but still.
Because this is a new low in a series of very low quality stories that recently made it on slashdot. While the comments also seem to have slipped and the idiots seem to have the majority now, I do not think they should be catered to.
You seem to be unfamiliar with a phenomenon called "fear" and what it does to human beings. That would make you an extreme moron. However, I think you are just a troll. That makes you an _evil_ extreme moron.
And they hired a lot more smart morons. Their problem is that they think their technology is so great it beats human beings. It does not. It is far, far inferior. Sure, for advertising, all these "AI" things seem to work, because advertising does not work in the first place. But for anything else, it becomes obvious on very short notice that this is not "AI" this is artificial stupidity.
Well, I hope some real alternatives to YouTube become available soon. Many, possibly most content creators will jump ship after having been fucked over this massively.
... then you indeed do not need any CS types in IT, because you do not have a productivity above zero anyways. In that situation, I can well understand at least hiring people that make these utterly pointless meetings more pleasant.
Companies run on this paradigm probably hire consultants for any real work anyways, because they cannot do anything themselves anymore. A slight problem may arise when these consultants realize how indispensable they are and refuse to work for cheap. My last negotiation with a major customer that wanted lower rates consisted of me saying "no" and they basically did not have a choice.
You wish. I pretty much know how this works in Germany. And I know that Germany has a serious corruption problem in politics, because many types of donations to politicians and parties are legal and need not even made public. You really have no clue what you are talking about.
All those nice diseases that make your life hell but do not kill you, that long-term exposure to radiation causes, are conveniently swept under the carpet.
Indeed. And while you life may only be shortened moderately, the quality of that life may be dramatically worse. Radiation causes a nice selection of really unpleasant diseases on long-term exposure, many of which do not kill you.
There is also the little side-issue of quality-of-life. You can actually get quite old with permanent radiation poisoning if it is not too severe. It is just a life most people would rather not have, with a host of bizarre and very unpleasant illnesses.
I think we should let these "researchers" stay behind and evacuate everybody else. When they have figured out their error after a few years, we can evacuate them as well.
People with permanent radiation poisoning can actually get pretty old. It is just not fun at all. If the primary metric is age at time of death, then that metric is spectacularly unsuitable. This looks far more like just one more attempts of the nuclear apologists to demonstrate that nuclear is actually very safe. It is not, at least not as practiced by the greedy scum currently in control of that industry.
Well, obviously you have no clue what went in in Munich. It is fascinating though that you think I have no idea how government works in Germany, I only grew up there...
The did about the most dumb thing possible: They blamed Linux for their dysfunctional organization. They will have pretty much the same problems after the move with some new ones on top. And the only sane alternative, moving everything to web-apps, was not even considered.
What happened here is that the ones in charge let themselves be bought by MS.
Indeed. My university back then decided to allow all the official P2P ports, because this way they could at least shape the traffic down to a reasonable rate. They also got a legal opinion stating that they are actually not required to look at the traffic or block based on content.
As more and more traffic is SSL, deep-packet-inspection is basically dead, except in enterprise environments where they can push their own CA into the clients and break the tunnel.
The whole thing is stupid. A typical sign of a clueless nil-whit trying to do policy.
1. Copyright infringement is something that is possible with a lot of other protocols just as simply and it can be rectified financially if somebody overdoes it.
2. Guns are a massive death-toll amplifier. Try to kill a lot of people with a knife, for example, and see how well that goes. Also, dead is dead and there is no way to fix that after the fact.

"Bla bla bla, I am right until you prove in extreme detail what you just said"
Are you demented? Or just so full of yourself that you have no effective intelligence left?

Well, it filters out extreme idiots. The common run-of-the-mill idiots make it through college just fine.

It is also a good hypothesis that this stress would have been even higher if no relocation had been done.
Also, you quality of life can get much, much worse (and long-term radiation exposure does cause that), without your time of death being affected much.

You are completely off.
Maybe read up on what their problems actually were?
Well, obviously you have no clue what went in in Munich. It is fascinating though that you think I have no idea how government works in Germany, I only grew up there...
Well, obviously you are stupid. None of these matter in a web-application landscape.
You are mistaken. You seem to assume that capitalism is self-regulating and actually works. That is not the case.

Simple:
1. Copyright infringement is something that is possible with a lot of other protocols just as simply and it can be rectified financially if somebody overdoes it.
2. Guns are a massive death-toll amplifier. Try to kill a lot of people with a knife, for example, and see how well that goes. Also, dead is dead and there is no way to fix that after the fact.
