Marco likes to complain. This is why Apple needs to be cold to developers, they're already on its head, and even more so if they pay attention.

CSV in the abstract has no problems. The problem is two tools attempting to interact by using subtly incompatible versions of CSV. And CSVY just adds one more of those.

I feel the simple recommendation for all CSV usecases should be "use JSON".

In machine encoding formats, "much less likely" is the same as "very likely". You're either OK for something to happen or you categorically make it impossible to happen. Invisible characters also mean you can no lon

It's like a law that makes it illegal to get raped. Many countries exist where that's actually how they deal with it. Reported rape does indeed drop. Emphasis on "reported". The fundamental problem is that you put blame

Huawei devices shipped with Android before the US banned them from doing so. Whining that they copied an open-source as product as a result is the height of hypocrisy.

You're talking about the performance of a click action. How many clicks a second do your users do? Millions? Also counters aren't mutable state in the sense of a value changing in time. The "increment" name was chosen so

You have the choice of downloading your account history and copy pasting it here for us to see. Can you think of a reason why you wouldn't do that? Also does Bitcoin give you a "choice" in exposing your wallet transactions? H

Yeah I read this the first time around. My point was to explain why a trade tool's value is determined by its ability to trade with it, and demonstrate why legality of the currency itself matters. If you don't understand this, you

The concept of deciding something that's rare is valuable will never go away. It's just revision #987192 of the "tulip craze" phenomenon. But this will keep getting worse and worse until cryptocurrencies are outlawed. An

Asking for ransom and getting the payment are, yes, 100%, absolutely, no ifs, no buts, no exceptions: risk-free. Zero risk. So it will happen with increasing frequency, thanks to cryptocurrency. What you're talking about, actually laun

Bug bounty programs help when you want to gradually improve the quality of your system, but no single bug can be used to blackmail or halt your entire business. You see, your proposal's math doesn't work. Acme has a system worth 1

That's like a gang attacking you on the street, and someone remarking you should've hired (more) bodyguards. No infrastructure is perfectly secure. This is why it's illegal to attack infrastructure and blackmail the owners. H
