Oh man. If half of the stuff he is claiming in this article was true then in a few years pretty much all encryption used online and with banking will be totally broken, much less bitcoin. If we had a functional 4000 qubit computer so many t

I'm glad they were able to sell it but at the same time like it's raw milk cheese. So importing it into Canada and us is pretty much a non starter. Hopefully they'll be able to keep up the sales past this article.

This is fascinating. I wonder if it really was solidly trapped if they would resort to essentially scuttling it just to get it out of the way faster.

It's an interesting theory but like most items in quantum computing it is purely theoretical. Not sure how much it would cost to build. I hope someone gets a grant to work out the engineering difficulties in this.

I am not a lawyer so please consult a lawyer before taking any action. The fact of the matter is they own the copyright on their videos. And while they don't have any security persay on their videos beyond the obfuscation of the urls t

Whoa. That's absolutely insane. And yet now that someone has demonstrated it I can see this turning into a dark pattern that a variety of less scrupulous sites will use in the foreseeable future.

Basically, we know that governments and leaders are going to punish us for taking sides in political fights. So we are going to pretend that the side we took is supported by the "public" Please don't nationalize/regulate

Oh absolutely. This is something I chew over all the time. How can we have a large corporation dealing with the number of users that Amazon/Google/etc are dealing with, as well as the number of malicious parties trying to break th

Well I'm glad they resolved it so fast. That's excellent.

For me, I think a consortium would work very effectively. Similar to how Compaq and company totally crushed the PS/2 databus in the late 80s by having a consortium that worked together to produce a competitive product. If all of these

Honestly, one of the best things I learned when I was doing work on complexity with Stuart Kauffman was the idea of enabling constraints. The fact that in many circumstances putting constraints can actually lead to more complex and better s

This is an interesting idea and brings up a really good point about crawling being something that can lead to a fundamental monopoly when successful. However it misses that the storage, algorithms and indexing required for searching the cra

It's pretty sad that getting any of these automated issues resolved requires this. I get the whole need to be able to properly review extensions before they are in the store. Its such a high security vulnerability. However. Banning an

On the plus side there are multiple app stores for the android and the ability to simply install your app directly to the device. So even if Google play store bans you outright you aren't dead in the water. Now that being said. If you

I will fully admit that I don't know this for sure, but wasn't tenure specifically invented to deal with this problem? Is there no professors with tenure anymore?

I don't see why this would be an issue. You would have to run it through the various county land offices, but it would fall under the standard transfer of wealth for land title. You just need to find someone willing to accept crypto fo

When I was starting a business in Canada, I very quickly realized that a trick many startups used of hiring people as contract workers was actually illegal from a tax perspective. This is because if you are hired as a contractor and in real

Yes. I've been finding myself resorting to other search engines. Especially regarding things that remotely have anything to do with political hot button topics in the US.

"Spone last year created the doctored images of at least three members" That screams to me of bad photoshops. There's no reason to deepfake a bad photoshop.

I don't make the apocalyptic predictions about AI that everyone else seems to. But there is a simple fact that anyone in IT has run into. Google (as an example) has a massive amount of money and spends it extensively to try and prevent

Well, and I could be wrong. Paypal was able to be basically a bank without having to follow any of the rules of what a bank needed to follow. Sorta like Uber being a taxi service without having to follow any of the rules of a taxi service.

This would be my concern. It seems like a really good tool to attract the attention of bad actors.

Ok, that would make a huge difference. the biggest argument I"ve made against this with people is simply that the latency would be terrible (and it's still not great), but it's a helluva lot better than 22.3k.

Could someone explain to me how/if this resolves the speed issues that all satellite internet has had since its inception.

This is also true for gold, silver and any other currency. The value only exists because someone else is willing to exchange it for goods or services.

Precisely. They would be able to look into any transactions or series of transactions trivially. However in most cases won't care.

I'm amazed at how many people don't get this. Like the sec would kill for this level of control.

This is pretty much the issues we are seeing more and more with centralized systems relying on automated systems for moderation with no method of appeal. I'd bet 90% of google accounts banned fall under something like this. And since t
