All of this is still true today. Edit: except the parts about SF, obviously. San Francisco is clearly not the interesting eclectic city the author describes. More and more of the office park culture of SJ & The Valley has crept into S

San Francisco is fast becoming the most boring "big" city in America. Take a look at the boring office-park culture that SV is famous for; that is the future of SF. This change is inevitable as rents increase and the only people

There is probably a good number of visits from people not "at work" per se, like students and hobbyists working on things in their free time.

What happens to an app when Apple pulls it from the store? The app remains on the devices that already downloaded it -- does this just prevent anyone from getting updates and any new users from downloading the coinbase app?

Can anyone read the paper? I don't understand how a minority group of colluding miners could privately mine a longest fork of the blockchain. Wouldn't this take more than 50% hashing power?

The false claim is that anyone in attendance mistook Kennedy's statement to mean anything other than "I am a person from Berlin." It is equally false to claim that Kennedy misspoke or made a gaffe in this speech. Only later

There are thousands of these stories which are so commonly repeated that most people refuse to accept them as myths. See also JFK's famous "Ich bin ein Berliner" speech, which is often (falsely) claimed to be German for &quot

I think the price definitely helps, but Apple has made it so easy to upgrade OSes and it's paying off.

Coinbase already had an app... At least I had one installed from way back. It had the exact same icon and name. It was basically just a list of transactions and you couldn't take any action. Maybe they aren't counting that app.

Completely off topic, but why can't I keep the page zoomed out far enough to view the entire width of a paragraph? I'm on my iPhone; is Google doing something screwy to fuck with iOS users?
