Sometimes, even with his tortured intellectualisms, Zizek finds some kernel of truth. What he says here is spot on. From their leader's Swiss watch, to their rampant need for social media validation, ISIS have just "iternalized ou

So the proposal is another layer of indirection, à la namespaces, à la where-have-I-seen-this-before. I'd appreciate it if they'd stop thinking that what they're doing is for the benefit of everyone instead of in their partic

They probably thought about it and then figured it was easier to deploy globally and satisfy regulatory hurdles by working with MC/Visa. Besides, I am almost certain that whatever "solution" will be priced as an extra premium

Sure there's this thing called mathematics, but what reason do you have to give that the universe comes equipped with F? I'm not trying to be difficult, but mathematicians often try and live in their happy axiomatic universe and f

My gushy, heart-felt comment thanking Anand: Thanks so very much for your leadership over the years Anand. You kept the tech industry honest, called them out on their benchmarketing, and championed the consumer. From display quality, to p

Haven't looked this paper in detail (yet), but hopefully the Stellar folks will respond. [1] This long weekend will give me time to have a good look at the paper and organize my thoughts. [1] https://news.ycombinator.com&#x2

That needless affectation on elite is what's bad for the soul. But perhaps that's the point. Oh, well done! «clap, clap, clap» These articles are the elite navel-gazing at themselves and despairing their tragic circumstances. Th

I feel that blocking Russia from SWIFT would be quite ballsy on the part of the EU, but ultimately Russia and its partners won't need SWIFT. With the development of the BRICS Bank [1], this eventuality is inevitable. Does it happen now

The point I'm trying to make is that this behavior on Red Hat's part is totally reckless. They're not entering any new markets, they're sitting on their laurels. Of course, I think at a high-level they feel that they can

Hi Joyce, what I'm really interested in are the details you promised in that first blog post: We’ll be releasing a paper soon documenting and exploring a provably-correct version of this algorithm. When should we expect th

On a serious note, however, I've always hoped for more leadership from Red Hat. On the one hand, I'm sure they're doing perfectly fine on the enterprise consulting side, however they're slowly missing opportunities in

Hey jokoon, you're clearly in a rut, and it's clouding your thinking and decision making. Your attitude needs to shift from where it is because, presently, it's so negative that it amounts to self-sabotage. I would suggest se

You're young, clearly you don't like the status quo, what's keeping you there? I find it hard to feel sympathy, but I don't know whatever situation you may be in. Don't let the structural problems of your country hi

What's up with your postings on semiotics/biosemiosis? Are you a theorist looking for discussion? Very few people are aware of the subtleties of the field, and it all too often becomes washed down. If you're looking for a rea
