I didn't actually calculate the probabilities, it was just my off-the-cuff estimates. 37% could be 'about half' :P

Every pixel on the panel must work, otherwise the whole panel is useless. Now imagine you have one broken pixel on average for every million pixels. Apple Watch screens have 100k pixels so on average 9 out of 10 screens test OK and can be u

Transfer pricing. It's the same for all big companies operating in Australia (and probably most other countries) Of course there's nothing illegal about this and it's very difficult to really do something about it. The Austra

In the future envisioned back in the 90s manga Ghost in the Shell there's several discussions about this. For example, a random person posting video evidence of a crime is useless since it's impossible to determine if the video is

Non-mining nodes do not have the ability to change the block chain and therefore they do not affect the rest of the network.

I recently rented a house for NYE with a very nice kitchen. It had FOUR drawer style dishwashers! I imagine this is what the owners do all the time.

CPUs tend to have multiple cores these days, would it be possible to assign (in software) all kernal space work to one or more dedicated cores to mitigate some of the risks?

1200mg is only 2 capsules 3 times per day, less than the maximum recommended for over the counter use. However any pharmacist would tell you not to use it for more than a few days in a row without seeing a doctor.

That trick costs a bunch of money in fees though. Volume is still a better measure than market cap. And If you don't like using the volume or market cap, what do you use?

Tether is always 1 USD so it is stable in the sense that the value doesn't change by 20% in a day which is what OP wants I think?

I feel like changing the parts like ECC RAM and the 5K monitor you'll end up with a different conclusion - Apple will win out. The prices will be very similar and the iMac Pro will have better components overall, and of course that nic

> gdax limits you to 10k/day of withdrawls from the exchange (be it usd or btc). That's just the default limit. You can ask for increases.

This article is completely overblown and full of made up nonsense. It's super easy to sell BTC and on a decent exchange like GDAX you can sell a million dollars via market order right now with less than $100 slippage. That's 0.5%.

This cannot happen. Bitcoin difficulty adjusts to match current mining power so it can't get out of control like that.

To give you some concrete data: Right now you can do on GDAX and sell $10 million in BTC with only about 5% slippage. If you spread it out you can sell $100 million in 6 months no problem.
