+1 here on an ongoing UK government project. It's like a nightmare where you can't move and nobody can hear you scream. You can only watch the inevitable disaster unfold.

You left out your best example; at GC you received hundreds of hours of schooling at pool with no discernible improvement.

I'm working on a project that is almost literally your example of reducing a relational database to a key value store, despite client applications having complex problem domains to model. The consequence has been catastrophic data cons

Delighted to hear such an accurate description of my own career. I'm not alone.

Agree, this is a fantastic comment.

Or put another way, approximately enough to power 110 of the most powerful supercomputers in the world, the Sunway TaihuLight, that would give a combined performance of 10 exaFLOPS. https://www.top500.org/list/2017&#x2F

Bitcoin replaces one tyranny with one that is far worse. If it succeeded in displacing existing currencies as you attest, it would amount to an unprecedented and catastrophic redistribution and concentration of wealth. 80% of all bitcoins t

I also want to know the answer to this. Should we expect weather forecasters to ditch all their existing infrastructure and move to improbable? Something doesn't add up; simulations are not MMOs.

Can anyone from improbable explain why your technology is suitable for simulations? I'm talking about the non real time simulations of cities, traffic etc in your promotional material. If a simulation does not have a real time requirem

If you don't need real time then why use improbable? If you want to simulate a new bus route then run an offline simulation using whatever tools you like with as much complexity as you like. In fact you'd likely want to run your s

Do those simulations need to be real time and massively multiplayer? I don't see the need for this tech in the high fidelity city simulation cited in the linked article: that would much easier to implement as an offline simulation. Tra
