Hmm. SHA-256 will be sunsetting probably within our lifetime due to the exponential nature of our computers. Which is probably why I assumed you'd be speaking about that function. But a break in ECC would be...something extreme IMHO an

Cracking RSA isn't cracking SHA-256. Bitcoin and other coins are based on SHA-256. If someone were able to crack SHA-256, the exploit would be better served (of the hacker) to slowly steal coins, so that value within the network is mai

Why launder? Plenty of goods and services would accept crypto as payment. No need to launder cryptocurrencies but the wild swings in price will affect your accounting in your business.

Ah, then it should be something like 'Search the Full Text of 3 million records from a Non-profit tax filings' or just add the word millions. Thanks for the correction.

I actually thought the same thing. Or maybe a $ sign prior to 3M. $3M could be easier to distinguish quickly. [edit] It seems that this is a link to 3 million records. Not a 3 million dollars worth. It seems I was even confused with another

Dude. This idea is actually fantastic. It will add political pressure to the discussion too. Write a letter to your Senator. This is actually a great idea. Could be a great push to help quantify the climate change issue.

> It's not unthinkable It's highly unlikely. SV is an economic engine for Cali and the USA. Unions and bureaucracies (local govt red tape) are the driving forces to high construction costs.

Weather is a driving factor that one shouldn't overlook. SV has a massive housing problem. Let's not defer the issue. It's a substantial issue.

I don't understand why electric bikes haven't already taken off. But hopefully the future is good because of us.

I'm glad that you notice the spectrum of motives/rationale to the loud mufflers.

Risk doesn't exist in a vacuum. It's not black/white. Loud pipes do help. Your minimizing of it doesn't negate that truth. As for self-driving etc, ummm that's a bit off tangent. This is a discussion about noise pol

Direction of the pipe might be more efficient on that front but it doesn't mitigate that it DOES help. I can hear cars behind me that are loud and their loud mufflers are pointing back too. You might never have 'bought' the a

I'm not totally embedded in the motorcycle lifestyle enough to give you a well written detail into the reasoning but I have been exposed to a lot of riders. I'll say this. In numerous cases, loud motorcyclists do it for their SA

LN is a half baked idea. Only your main point is potentially valid for LN. And even that I'd be highly skeptical. Years ago, LN was used to buy two pizzas. Today? Only two. Talk about scale! Second, user privacy is utter untrue mainly

Everything within Math can be described Topologically. Topology is gaining a lot of traction. It's pretty remarkable.

Also, let me further point out this system was a 2kw system which isn't enough to fully be energy independent as a home owner. Sizes range in the 5kw to 8kw, at least in the USA. So, that would add additional money into the equation an

Great questions. Tesla's problem isn't by intention. It's by NEC (and local) code requirement. For the second question, why not lay it across the sub roof: Water can be very damaging. What insures those wires (over 20-30 year

Wiring up their solar shingles isn't cost effective due to labor. Their solar roofs is a negative income stream for Tesla. When is the last time you heard the Solar Roof grow into 'record breaking growth'? It hasn't and

It's a shame you only regurgitate information instead of looking up things yourself. Based on the 'total consumption chart' [1] you are incorrect. Even though many, including Digiconomist, only look at the current value. They
