Yeah but your new money does not change any of it. Sure its a good way to send real money from point A to B over the internet. Can’t do that easily with cash. However it does not escape from most of the problems that you are ascribing to our money.

Time is affected by gravity. This affects all clocks and everything else. They probably don’t try to synchronize atomic clocks.

They never said it would last 15 billion years. They just said it would lose 1 second in 15 billion years. Two completely different things.

If you think that is what “Harassment” is you need to come out from under that rock.

I dont think the EU considers that Google “owes” anyone anything. They will potentially “require” them to be fair.

Is Pizza Hut considered a restaurant?

Well it looks like you and the EU will have to agree to disagree, because they do see it that way.

You mean like when I pointed out that you have no recourse to get your money back if someone rips you off? Or when I pointed out that having to go through an escrow service of unknown trust worthiness could be a problem?

No. I am just pointing out to you several ways in which currency can be problematic. Any currency. Even crypto. Because its used by people to buy goods and services. It not a self contained closed loop where you are only transferring money between programs.

Yes maybe you don’t see me leading you to my point.

But this is not removing the human element at all. I am still dealing with you, just via our computers. This means that I could be trying to steal money from you outside of the money transfer. For example I have something for sale and require you to give me the money before I send it like most retailers would. Then I…

My guess is that processing is cheaper then bandwidth for Google. You only need to compress once. You might stream it millions of times.

So how do I get my money back if someone sells me something bogus? Like say someone sells me a barrel of apples. I check and everything seems good but then I get it home and realize the entire barrel except the top is filled with bad apples. Whats my recourse for getting my money back with ShadowCash or any other…

I can illuminate that. Who has all the money, you or large organizations? So who has the most to gain with a system to move money around anonymously?

It does not matter how good a currency is if the problems that its susceptible to are the same problems as all other currency. Even if this problem is not a direct fault of the currency itself. You can not eliminate the human element from the usage of the currency and if it can be abused your system is doomed to…

Actually if the meters start at 6 usually they wont even accept money before then so you would have to come back at 6. I think but that might just be if its no parking before 6.

True. They are probably choosing languages that are more beginner friendly or “hot” right now.

Frankly if you want to survive as a software developer don’t worry so much about the language. Take the boot camp in which ever language. When you are done if successful you should be transfer those skills on your own to any other language pretty easily by just working in the new languages. For the most part the…

Agree. These are not pre Martin but these are by far some of the best gritty fantasy there is. Joe Abercrombie as well.

This article is saying plastic no longer makes sense. When oil is cheap its not worth recycling plastic.
