I wonder why they didn't use a in-memory store for deduping. Using something like a bloom-filter could solve their problem it seems.

At a USD200,000 price for a new TLD, it takes 2,000 domains at $100/year to break even. Of course there are other costs associated to running a TLD, but they probably don't scale linearly. So on a 5 year term, it might even be a s

You're right, the technology is available. But power consumption is another thing altogether. I am assuming the device will be battery powered and the usefulness of some of the sensors, like GPS, drops very quickly if you can't af

Really curious about how this will pan out as everything said in the article screams at me like someone has no clue how difficult making the device is going to be, regardless of how much ”AI” runs on it. Hardware is really hard.

You make a great point, Twitter's revenue has been growing for the last five years. The market cap of Twitter is supposed to reflect its future value and this is where things get complicated. With a no longer growing user base, limited

I'm always very suspicious of metrics reported in req/minute to make numbers look bigger than they actually are. Assuming linear load – which we all know is never the case – is 2,000 req/s on average, which is nothing to be s
