What makes minecraft more interesting to me is the building and Redstone aspect. DayZ has similar elements to the survival an PvP parts of minecraft, but spending hours or days by yourself isn't nearly as easy.

Maybe like the final draft, overlayed with a heatmap of how much editing was done, then on clicking, provide a tree like comment history of each branching edit. This could show the anatomy of how different people form thoughts in written wo

Optimistically. I'm awaiting more infrastructure before calling stage 3. We are still 2 years from that in my book. Still too much to learn.

OK, so the entertainers of the future will work differently and make less due to the digitization of music. So instead of being famous and having millions of dollars and a huge tour train, you'll produce music on the cheap or electroni

This "explanation" is misdirection. The accusation was never that the NSA wanted to add just this one bust algorithm. The NSA, acting as a client protected by privacy, could have easily invested time and money to be a significant

We would have to change the American flag. Think about that for a second. There won't be citizen driven state changes in America, ever, without some form of revolt.

Very true. The difference is in the profit. Google arguably will put up with it considering they are selling more phones. Once goolge starts shipping good hardware, other carriers will follow them for compatibility.

A customer of bitcoin shouldnt have to care if the service you provide is hard. In fact, thats why they come to you in the first place. Complaining about the complexities does not instill faith that you have a solid grasp on your product. T

Coinbase will close their doors forever before honoring price lock removal. You took a risk, one that is a lot harder to read than the Fed-drunk stock market. From what I can gather coinbase makes their money by throwing away or backing ou

This, including the XSS comment elsewhere in this thread has prompted me to move my coins ASAP. Coinbase US understaffed, running fast and loose, and can't handle the spike in attention. This proves bitcoin isn't ready. Coinbase h

What he meant was coinbase could have easily used some of the 35k to buy the 40 by cheaper, and keep the rest. They could have done this, and still said what they said and the net effect to the customer would be the same. This is not good f

Giving coins for USD is their primary use case. Monitoring transactions should be the only control they have in place if they must cut corners. As a coinbase customer and someone who manages a team and large complex distributed systems, t

Amazon is all about bringing the best value to the most customers, so even a deviation in mean to bring down the p99 is worth it for most customers. Especially when that correlates directly to sales.

So wait a second. TSA gets introduced and it makes lines long and horrible. To get around that, give us full spying rights and $80. This is a little too problem-reaction-solution for me.
