Libra is not for the developed world; I didn’t mention the developed world in my message. It remains to be seen what it will happen to it in the developing world, but the reputation of Facebook won’t be an obstacle.

You said calc.exe and I thought you meant the one that’s closed source. I imagined you using IDA to find and fix the bug. This is definitely not as cool. Also, props for working for free for a multibillion corporation.
