Bitcoin "wallet" is just a pair of public and private keys. Honest question - what is the difference between a "hardware wallet" and a thumbdrive with the keys on it, except for the price tag?

Wonder why it took so long for FDA. Seems it was used elsewhere (I've found reports from EU and Nepal) for treating frostbites at least a decade.

In case you've missed, we're talking about an operating system whose last release was twelve years ago. The first Qt version for Symbian was around 4.6, and IIRC QML didn't even exist then. The latest was around 4.8, and it d

Qt was always a bad strategy. Sure, in some aspects it was better than anything native Symbian could provide, but in general it was many years behind iOS and Android UI frameworks. For example, one of the most frequent patterns in touchscre

It's more complicated. In theory, you should not be able to chargeback any transaction at will, you need to provide a reason for it. But because US banking is stuck in between of 90s and 00s, to pay with the card online it's enoug

Ex-CEO of Russian Yandex made a post in an internal network explaining she moved to Israel, and, among other things, saying "I don't want to live in a country waging wars with its neighbours (sic)". I wonder if she understood

Wait, are you saying aftermarket LEDs are road legal in US, no strings attached? Throughout Europe it's either straight prohibited to retrofit LEDs in place of halogen bulbs, or it requires special certification where beam patterns are

I don't really want to start a debate on how HFT produces real-world value, but just consider that if these things you talk about are really useful and valuable, they might also provide competitive salaries to attract people?

Intel is definitely on the same level. 10-th gen Intel Core had two different architectures for laptop chips - both 14 nm Comet Lake and 10 nm Ice Lake. 11-th gen Intel Core was 14 nm on desktop, but 10 nm on laptops. Now Intel 14-th gen is
