Those ten non-colluding platforms would quickly dwindle back down to the two we have now, for many reasons, network effects being the primary. Look at any other space with similar platforms, you have 1 or 2 at most. Hell, look at PC gaming

If he has the passwords, he could hash them and compare that against the entries in the DB. I think he's saying he didn't even have access to the DB of non-plaintext passwords.

My problem with this perspective is that, sure, the bible had some teachings that could be considered an improvement at the time. But if it really is a divinely inspired text, the teachings wouldn't be just a slight improvement of the

I think the Palm WebOS was really ahead of it's time with how they handled multiple apps as "cards." The iOS UI is basically a clone of their approach. The Palm Pre brought some really interesting concepts to smartphones at t

Apollo's GraphQL server has a VSCode plugin that shows you the average response time of a query. This type of tooling is difficult to implement but I think can be super useful. https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items

They have no recourse because the box has opened, and the new economy is up and running. Barring your citizens from participating would put your whole country at a disadvantage. Also, I don't think I agree with the notion that adopting

But what if it's not a conscious forfeit of power. The power is taken out from underneath them and by the time they realize it, they have no recourse. Other than threatening all countries that use the currency, which I don't see h

As I mentioned in my reply above, I think the way it can work is if it grows exponentially, and the US government doesn't respond in time at which point not using crypto will put the US at a disadvantage. Crypto has the unique ability

If they haven't done it by now, then they don't currently see it as a threat. Now let's say in a few years, that inflection point happens where crypto sees an exponential rate of adoption. Every other country begins to use it

One possible reason is that by the time they realize it's a threat, it will be too late.

How? 1000 engineers x 1000 LoC/each = 1M LoC Why? If you have 100+ engineers at any given time, shipping features over a period of a few years, you'll hit 1M in no time. It sounds like a lot, but it really isn't when you cons

Why would Spotify sell this data? If the data is bad, nobody will buy it. If the data is good, they would want to hold on to it.

You can disable that feature if you don’t like it. Personally, I like it especially when I have a short playlist but would like to continue playing music in a similar style.

Scary? Hardly. Most of the time Spotify's recommended music is just other songs by my favorite artists that I've already listened to 100x, on their platform. If they can't predict what I will like outside of the artists/
