I never used any of Goggle services, for privacy reasons, just as I never had a Facebook account. Until Android came around. This one is really hard to evade, unless you want an iPhone, which is an even greater evil.

"Target date" means the ratio of stocks to bonds in them is getting rebalanced each year - the closer the target date (retirement), more bonds and less stocks. They have 60% or more in stocks.

I used LN many times, it works very nice for small payments ... maybe we need another layer 2 network for medium sized payments $100-$10000?

One thing he got wrong is that computer power and network speed will scale exponentially to accomodate infinitely large blockchain size. Intel's Q6600 of 2007 is still not too much slower than today's processors.

There is a lot of young people who think that stocks only ever go up. Wait until the the stock market crashes, and target date funds with it.

Lightning Network has been in development for a very long time and still doesn't work well enough. For example, payments are not assured to complete, and the probability of transaction failure increases dramatically if transaction valu

Google follows your every step, not only on the internet, if you carry an Android phone, as most people on this planet. Facebook knows your public data, that you shared voluntary, but google knows your private data: emails, search queries,

How do you measure who is at the top? By the amount of bad press, which is easily manipulated? For me, Google is top evil, by far. You just can't avoid it no matter how hard you try.

Timestamping existed long before blockchains. You can just push the image to github, there is no way to change the push timestamp.

Blockchain is just a database that is 1) public 2) append only If you don't have mining, anyone can append to such blockchain at no cost, so it's defenseless against bad actors, so it must have a set of trusted appenders. If you

Depends on the level of trust you require. Family wealth or family photos - big difference. At least they state this as their objective, Dropbox does not. They also list on their website the kind of measures they have taken to try and achie

Of course it sucks. That's why I never had an FB account. But Google, Apple, Amazon and any other big monopoly are equally bad, and worse. I don't understand why people single out FB.

But this is a selection fallacy. 99% of those who look like they work on something silly, DO work on something silly and will never become top people.

Voltage is an energy gap between on and off state of the transistor. There is also random noise on top of that gap. And that noise can sometimes cause the transistor to flip randomly, which results in an error. More voltage means system is

Online casinos are banned because they are illegal (in some jurisdictions), not because of the fraud. Just no need to defraud anyone when your profits are that good. (as a former online casino owner).

That is wrong. I have lived in both US and Russia. Some things are cheaper, but, overall, life is more expensive in Russia due to sheer inefficiency. For example, you usually pay nothing for delivery of online purchases in the US, but it&#x

I don't see any scenario where you would provide VPN services for others without using a VPN yourself.

It takes a few minutes to find a setting that postpones those updates. Compare this to hours I have spent to install anything as complicated as graphics drivers on Ubuntu. Besides, I hate command line since my MicroVAX days.
