Actually, calculating equilibrium prices of markets is PPAD-hard (similar to NP-hard, but not quite) in general. See for example http://arxiv.org/pdf/0904.0644.pdf

Not today, but maybe tomorrow if banks start mining themselves and dedicate developers to the project.

The Bitcoin core has definitely left the stage of rapid innovation. Instead, we can expect slow, consensus-based progress at best for the future. This is normal for a successful protocol and happened to html, smpt, tcp, etc. as well. Commit

It is obviously the speed that makes the difference. This guy only got about 110 miles (180 km) out of a fully charged 85 kWh Tesla, driving on the German Autobahn at 160 km/h: http://www.teslamotorsclub.com/showthread.

It might exactly work because a rate raise is expected. That way, you can make a gain twice. First due to the flight into safe haven assets, and then again when the raise hike is postponed again and again. (Just a scenario. :) )

Note that this is not about changing genes, but about exogenous tags that are passed on.

Thanks, you are right. I thought I understood confidence intervals, but apparently I did not.

Yes, adding the clause with the null hypothesis corrects your statement.

> in 95% of runs (in the long run) the true value would be in the interval [a,b] obtained on that run So 95% of the runs produce an interval that includes the true value. Doesn't that imply that when doing one run, there is a 95% ch

Yes, that flaw has been fixed in the latest models.

Oberon was my first programming language, taught by Jürg Gutknecht himself. One week, our home assignmend was "write your own file system". At first, I thought that would be impossible to do in such a short time. However, it turne

A much better fix would be: don't count the two worst tests towards the average. This would allow you to screw up every now and then.

That's the other extreme. I usually mix normal coke (too much sugar) and diet coke (not enough sugar) to get a more balanced experience.

To be fair, obesity is caused by a multitude of factors. For example, one often overlooked factor is the speed of eating. Your body only notices that you had enough with a certain delay. The faster you eat, the more you get in before feelin

That's the right question to ask. As far as I can tell, the answer is: both - depending on the comnodity. For oil, it is mainly increased supply. For steel, coal, copper and co. it is probably rather a lack of demand.

It almost looks like the broad consensus went from one extreme to the other over the course of the 20th century. Maybe we are currently returning to some middle ground.

While an SSL certificate from GoDaddy is not ideal, attacks are still detectable in theory by verifying the public key of Hulbee independently of the chain of trust. What I personally would be more concerned about is the fact that DuckDuckG

I prefer Hulbee for its in my opinion more appealing design. In particular, I like that the search results are in the center of the screen and not on the left half.

Actually, neutrality requires more military spending. As a NATO country, Switzerland could specialize more and better coordinate on technology and purchases. But on its own, it needs to maintain a full defense machinery without outside help

This observation holds in environments where the resources are tangible and controllable by force (i.e. owning the only oasis in the area or controlling oil fields). It does not hold in decentralized environments in which people can create

Normally, one does not pitch to the masses. So OPs point of using this as an inspiration for your pitch to a VC is misguided.

While the presentation succeeds at conveying an appealing vision, it dramatically lacks substance. What is "one pixel" supposed to mean? I'm not a child. Give me square kilometers. Or how does the price compare to competitors

I downvoted you because - while you raise a generally valid concern - your statement is exaggerated to a degree that makes it grossly misleading. You say: > which means that they could make arbitrary changes to the blockchain This makes

In that case, we should discuss helping the people, and not discuss helping the Greek government. In fact, Europe is already helping hundreds of thousands of Greeks by offering them good jobs in other countries.
