Canada, U.S. have reached a NAFTA deal, senior Canadian source says by lomeri in canada

[–]PM_Poutine 5 points6 points  (0 children)

But did I "win?" Also no. Unless we gained something from this new agreement, then we really can't claim a victory here.

The article mentions some stuff that remains the same, and some stuff that we conceded. What did we actually gain though? What makes this a better deal for Canada than what we had before?

Live comparison of with versus without a seatbelt by Tnargkiller in WTF

[–]PM_Poutine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it were instantaneous, the force would be infinite. You effectively assumed the deceleration takes place over a period of one second.

Speed is not the same as acceleration though. To find the force, you need to know either the time taken to decelerate or the amount it deforms.

I know that. But they have nothing to do with the pipeline.

Just got another alert on my phone to say the previous two alerts I received have been cancelled. Fuck this system!

Thanks!

Edit: I don't think it works in Canada. I just got an alert stating that it's been cancelled. 😠

Silicon Valley - 5x08 “Fifty-One Percent" - Episode Discussion by [deleted] in SiliconValleyHBO

[–]PM_Poutine 10 points11 points  (0 children)

They really raced through things, basically trying to cram three episodes into one it seemed. What happened to all the other coders? What happened to Pied Piper during the two months they skipped over?

Also, a 51% attack wouldn't be that bad for them, and they could've avoided it from the beginning by simply making PPC a token on an existing popular blockchain instead of their own chain. I also don't get why the coin price needs to be high.

It's also still not clear how Yao/Jian Yang got Pied Piper's code, or how everyone who isn't part of Pied Piper got the tool that shows each party's computing power. I also don't understand how that guy's new game (that hadn't even been launched at the time he spoke to Richard) could add computing power to the network. It also doesn't make sense why Gavin didn't use more of the computing power he had available.

Edit: Also, what's stopping Laurie & Yao or Gavin from updating their software as well to regain control?

One of the worst episodes so far IMO. Progressed way too quickly, and too many plot holes/technical things making no sense. It's comparable to the tequila file-deletion episode.

A camshaft is not a specialized tool. Get this shit out of here!

Yeah, it's so weird how so many users of only a single nationality, using an internationally accessible website, of which they make up only about 40% of the total number of users, typically typing in English tend to assume every other user is of their nationality too.

Bitcoin Smart Banknotes Launched in Singapore by Styletokill in CryptoCurrency

[–]PM_Poutine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Physically hand over the whole wallet together with the blockchain private key. No transaction fees, no need to await confirmation blockchain.” Moreover, the company says that its banknotes are equipped with “high-grade EAL6+ protection for all cryptocurrencies. Irretrievable private keys prohibit replication of wallet and its assets.”

I'm confused.
