That is actually the intent of filecoin. In perfect competition, which is the ideal state for a commodity, there is no economic profit. The reason Amazon and other companies are able to make a profit selling cloud storage is because there i

There is. They also didn't put it in the new SE for some reason. The thought it that it might be used for a future "airtags" product that you can stick in your wallet or on your keychain and your iphone helps you track it.

That's true, but turning on hardware encoding didn't make a big difference in encoding times for me. I'm planning on upgrading to a Ryzen 9 3900X to make everything else smoother

For anyone curious, the base rate of at least one person committing suicide based on these numbers is `1-((1-(13.42/100,000))^800) = 10%`. I suspect the suicide rate for engineers (who tend to be white, middle-upper class men) is somew

What Walter meant in his comment was that his static analyzer has no false positives (it never allows a memory unsafe program to compile). He's provided a few simpler examples in this thread of cases where his analyzer produces false n

If that is the case then his approach has false negatives, because a function that is never called cannot introduce memory unsafety but would incorrectly be flagged as unsafe

That approach is a really good point in the design space IMO. It is also the tradeoff that people have to make when designing type systems. Many programs are correct but rejected by their language's type system, but if the language is
