Pearl Harbor was an attack by the Japanese military on orders from the Japanese government. The 9/11 attacks were not perpetrated by a government or nation. Most of the 9/11 terrorists were Saudi Arabian nationals. By your logic,

That's the power of mathematical notation: lots of very complex ideas compressed down into a minimal number of characters. I have a math degree and can follow along, but I would need to pull out a few of my old algebra textbooks to rea

The Wikipedia entry on Anarcho-capitalism[1] dives into these details. It's a fascinating philosophy that, in my opinion, severely underestimates the human affinity for greed and manipulation. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org&#x

I interpreted this to be a top down vs bottom up argument. In mathematics, we certainly have ZFC as an axiom system now, but mathematics was performed for thousands of years without a "stable" axiomatic base. For example, calculus

That's fine if your hackathon is optional, but many workplaces make them mandatory or they exist in a kind of gray area where you're not required to go, but it's "highly recommended" you go if you want to continue t

Given the subject matter, I was surprised that the first three authors were in mathematics departments; then I found out why. This is some serious brain hacking here.

Because you can withdraw your coins from Coinbase, that means Coinbase has a copy of the private key associated with the BTC address that your BTC resides in. Two factor auth is not going to prevent a rogue attacker or employee from taking

This is a reason why I never leave my BTC in Coinbase. As soon as my purchase goes through, I transfer the BTC to a paper wallet[1] or digital wallet that I control. [1] https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Paper_wallet
