I think that the comment about it being "hyper precise" is a joke. The likely reason for the extra 4 digits is to prevent collisions in timing. The probability of messages having the same timestamp is already pretty low, this just

That is the current mtgox.com announcement. Obviously since that announcement was written before the call center had started, it's not the announcement that the call center person was talking about. Presumably there's another anno

Dear TV manufacturers, No one want's your shitty software, it's not a competitive edge. No one has ever been impressed by the software their TV comes with, and for every person that found your software easy to use, there is a thou

The reason this was posted by Tesla is so that they control the message. The mainstream media would love to take an incident like this and completely turn in it around to make a news story out of it. But because Tesla has already written ab

Apple may be trying to set a new precedent here. Or they are announcing that they will make the 215 order public, it doesn't matter how illegal it may be to do so, they are going to challenge it in the public arena. Or, and I think thi

I don't even think that it was inexperienced programmers. Ocarina of Time was the biggest game world ever created at the time, and it was released on a 32MB cartridge. 32MB. Every single bit of that game is exactly where it needed to b
