Here's an other idea : insider trading could be allowed only for buying on good news. That way, there won't be people owning stock losing big money without warning. Investors won't have a chance to buy stock, but this is a mi

Ok, I see. Well, I agree with you there. But I have an other problem here : it's theft as well when people who keep buying and selling property keep profiting on people who actually keep companies running, who keep losing. Trump, Lepen

Oh, ok. I see the point, thanks for explaining. That's funny because fairness was exactly what I had in mind to _allow_ insider trading, but using the point of view of fairness between investors and workers, rather than fairness betwee

And then, they would be asked to work longer hours and accept salary cuts to make market confident again :) Not sure it would work in that direction, I don't think most people would intentionally deteriorate the company they work for.

Btw, I'm only in trading since cryptos and don't know classic markets, I would love someone to explain to me why using insider news is a crime. The thing is, it only seems fair to me to be able to exploit insider news. Employees f

The difference between both is that you can actually use litecoin, so we have an idea how features perform in real conditions. Call that a beta area rather than a staging area if you prefer, but I guess you see the difference between liteco

I hope not for them, because there clearly was insider news at play, here. While litecoin was rising in previous months and its coinbase addition has been rumored, technical analysis two days ago shown compression and it was not expected t

Actually, fundamentals radically changed. Last year, litecoin was stilll "the first altcoin historically, which is just a duplicate of bitcoin and is mostly unmaintained". This year, it suddenly became bitcoin's staging area.

Great job, congratulations! My first reaction was : "well, if it's sentiment analysis, it doesn't know anything about if the news is bad or good, only about the mood of writer". But I then realized this is actually even

995 is the lowest price it was sold for, not the bottom of averaged price. If you look at graphs now, you'll see that price is considered not having been under ~ 1050. Those kind of statistical anomalies happen all the time, you must b

There are many factors, IMO (probably all wrong). First, ubuntu was initially seen as "noob's linux", debian users especially not taking the fork well, nor the fact that the numbers of linux users was raising in some kind of

Note that it's not really about using go, but more about implementing routing on client side : you lose http status for non api urls, whatever the backend language is. But then again, when you have static pages for public facing (and i

Actually, go routing is not the problem, it's react routing that is : go router only knows about API endpoints, and have a catch all route to serve the web client, which then manage its routing by itself. The advantage in that is that

Hmmm, indeed. I didn't thought about using react server side rendering and intercepting it to check which status to provide. Good idea, thanks! No, I'll have to think about whether it's worth it adding a whole SSR stack just

Yeah, indeed. I guess we can expect password schemes to change over time, so it's still a good idea to prevent it. Not sure in which proportion it helps, though.

The worst part in that is that it provides tons of passwords to analyze and detect recurring words or schemes. This probably also will hurt people that never commited their passwords in public repos. Github should probably filter out such s
