Great, so maybe one attack vector is defended, and that of 2nd-rate States trying to lob 80 year old technology. Missile defense has been in development for decades, and it never works. By the time it does, missiles will look like cross-b

That makes their market more like a casino, with a house in control. Unlike a casino, the house is not precisely fixing numbers, but doing it dynamically, with elements of chaos and predictability—what will the gov't do next? I imagi

They should charge a service fee to the rider, for however much they need to be profitable; and let the drivers charge whatever they want (baseline auction). Now the customer knows how much they are paying to whom. Imho, Taking a cut of ea

I learned to do multiplication in my head in a similar way, except I'd usually split on a multiples of 10 for simplicity. For 25x63, I would go: 60 10 2+3 10 2+5 60+5 3

This is a perfect example of how our implementation of the basic web is incomplete. Any informed person, given the choice, would absolutely want that data going directly from child to parent, with no web service, accounts, analytics, cloud,

My friend and I played at the same time. Unplanned, they invested in heavily Marketing, and I in Research. They beat it much more quickly, and I had to "cheat" or give up. I exploited Quantum Computing by writing a function in
