I think the issue is that there isn't much and certainly nginx could be viewed as competitor to F5. And with everything else going on it's not difficult to imagine that this acquisition isn't a positive sign.

Goes against the idea of blockchain. It's for untrusted parties to transact electronically. If you trust someone to review your books and sign off on it then both parties are trusting one another and no need for blockchain.

Don't see how this happens. How do you verify the work? It works in a purely electric fashion which is what Bitcoin is but you still need someone to verify things in the real world. Audits exist so that third parties can verify the boo

Using non real world examples is a big problem. So let's say you could convert $1 into $1.15 in revenue. You can't invest that money back into advertising because you forgot about costs and margin. Your product would need to have

Yeah but they will get that tax break regardless at least this we can continue to make NYC a powerhouse tech center. And it's in Long island City not in Manhattan like Facebook and Google.

After being a resident of NYC for 30 years and seeing the city change and become a technology hub and just a financial center I think this is a real loss for NYC. It would also be in Long island City which would provide a huge influx of new
