There are multiple systems out there, however I have my doubts. It is important that your data does not get corrupted, and that your transactions will not get lost. Furthermore, speedups are possible with certain indices. That is why I pers

A solution for this problem will be general libraries which you can build blockchains with. But I agree on that maintaining a blockchain needs governance as well.

I propose to have a smart solution with encryption. For example you could give half of the access key to the local government (maybe 1/4 to courts and 1/4 to police force), other half to Apple. If both parties believe on the case,

Non-USA person here, I am amazed that this is even allowed. Giving your username and password to a third party? Think about all the security problems, like creating a fake Stripe. You are basically trusting every website you use. In my opin

My experience is that Chinese are very hard working. Their mathematics background is normally quite good, but they only know the Chinese names... Try going to the English wiki page of for example a Fourier transform, then click on the Chine

He does not state that guns are evil. Also, where I live bodyguards and civilians are not allowed to have guns. Many cops do not even carry guns. So for me it is hard to identify the comparison to guns.

In my opinion a carbon tax is also interesting for oil and gas companies. As the carbon tax would enable them to compete on technologies that minimize the carbon output of their machines. It would enable them to differentiate from each othe

They are not (directly) competing with restaurants, but with supermarkets. They have clear benefits above supermarkets, as they do not have to throw away food. They directly send it to their customers. Furthermore, their food prices are a l

HelloFresh has a montly sales of 20 million. Lets assume they get a margin of 40% (which is just my guess). Then they can pay off these investments within 31 years. And I did not even consider their rapid growth.

Why not? Maybe it is not possible currently, but what stops me from creating a graph databases optimised for these types of queries? Currently a lot of research is being done on graph databases, and they can be potentially faster for querie

His customers are essentially baristas. I think he secretly hopes this will bring down coffee costs. I am quite interested in how the standardization will work. Maybe it is just like the "Chinese"-food places, where every menu is

I think the current techniques are becoming too complicated and Intel is now fully going to focus on EUV. The new EUV machines are reaching 70% availability on average, according to the producer ASML[1]. [1] http://www.asml.com&#

I do not fully agree on his Java point. Because C is too hard for beginners, you just confuse students with hard details. But Python is a candidate, the argument for Java is the combination of the IDE and the compiler. If you make a typing

You need to draw the line somewhere. Building your own operating system, programming language or database isn't the best idea. It is a tradeoff between time and trust. I think it is wise to learn other frameworks and languages. It will help
