And yet, we spend all our time lecturing Third World countries and don't plant any real forests here. It's easy. Couple billion Euros and we replicated the entire Borneo/Kalimatan forest. THEN we can lecture others. Not befo

Here in Europe, we destroyed our forests more than a millennium ago. Since then, we are profiting economically from all the agricultural land that destruction created. It made us rich. But we really don't like it when other people want

Care to elaborate? Nothing I wrote was because of "bad blood" (whatever that is). In a society where, whatever you say, somebody is offended and claims some victimhood status in order to justify the being offended, it is hardly su

No, Bitcoin uses a simple chain, one after the other. GIT, as you may know, has branches. IOTA in a sense, does too, a lot of them. And again, this incident was caused by a Nodejs/NPM package, not by the IOTA tangle or protocol.

On land or on a drone ship? I thought I've seen pretty much all of the landings, but can't recall a drone ship landing shown from an air plane camera. Especially with all the exploding rockets in the early days of landings. Do you

That was a pretty "clever" part in the smear campaign. First declare him a "rapist". But that didn't cut it. So they made him a "Trumpist". And many people still believe it up to this day.

Not really. "Tell a lie enough times and people will believe it". Sadly, that's still true. Even in people who consciously know that it was all lies. That's the human mind for ya.

Question isn't so much "when" as it is "where". For now, the sats will depend on ground stations to signal relay, until there are enough satellites (few thousand) to have them communicate between them via laser.

If I remember correctly, SpX is one of the few (only) who doesn't use explosives for their fairing separation or sat releases. Just some springs, because "they can be tested before the flight".

Like we never saw the actual landing of the F9 on a droneship until very recently. I remember being very surprised when the camera suddenly DIDN'T stop working and you could actually see the F9 actually land.

Only that it had nothing to do with "the coin" but with NPM and its chaotic dependency system. What's bad about the tangle? Its like hundreds of interwoven blockchains. Pretty good idea. GIT too uses a directed acyclic graph.

Leave means leave and this is what leave means. UK voted for this and actions have consequences. Many others will follow. Hardly anything to get upset about.
