Valuation is different than market cap.
As stated in another comment, a coin only needs to sell one unit, and because of the supply; they have a large market cap.

Building the program with withstand failure after failure, of things in and out, of your control. Seems like Slack needs some chaos engineers...
I'm not going to lie; it works and does failover correctly, quickly, and plays nice with consul. Not to mention, the name brings back memories...
If I had my way though, we would use HAProxy, but that's just because there is more options, ways to properly route, and more battle-tested.
Docker is one of those things that you can install and run; it takes a small amount of time to get running. As you said, value in simplifying things.
That being said... Anyone who takes the stance that containers are better than X/Y/Z are just showing that they don't have the drive to get into the why of how it all works.
Any argument of 'it saves overhead' can take that argument and run with it until the cows come home; but they don't understand that the overhead is all relative. As a programmer; I stopped caring about overhead and starting worrying about the fact that people will break my stuff, I just need to stop them from breaking other things using that as the foothold.
On the other hand. Pong is simple with 1 rule. Starcraft, or in this case Dota, have multiple facets to win.
Plus, most SC players just gg out of the game when they know they've lost. I'd think that is a more apt use for AI. Like chess, see out X moves; if it's a lost cause; call it, and get to the queue faster for another game.
I might be misreading, but if they need a warrant to track, wouldn't they need a warrant to get a singular location for an actual 911 emergency?
If they were a country, they'd be #140, with just one account. #133 for their total according to the report.
I find it very hard to believe that a company that has that amount, would be anywhere close to US borders, since... there has been no audit of any sort, by anyone; including governments.
The problem is throughput, and wait time.
Throughput, is the whole block size problem; and that whole can of worms.
Most people don't want to wait an hour plus or minus, for a transaction to be classified as safe. Zero confirmation transactions, the seller takes all the risk.
> Thanks to wallet security measures, the group was only able to extract 18.88 Bitcoin and 6466 skycoins during the robbery.
I call that no wallet security.
I have no clue about skycoin or whatever it is about, but this whole thing just seems like a cover for the actual sell-off by owners/developers.
Generally, if you have a following who would give money to something that has no real backing, then they will eat whatever you tell them to.
Cryptocurrency used to be a fun place to be in, before people started doing these ICOs that only made sense when you look at it from a cash grab.
Something that is entertaining... Get a coin daemon that was created several years ago (could probably get away with months at this point,) that happens to be on an exchange. You can trivially execute a 51% attack, by yourself, with no real investment required.
Honestly asking, not trying to throw punches; what are they ahead with? From everything I've seen/read/heard it's all software, and the hardware itself has stagnated or is behind by a few months/years of other vendors.
The rub for me was you needed to compile the kernel on a Mac to start with.
This was all years ago, and a lot could have changed since.
I have no real reason to suspect it, but... a lot of what they are doing have large privacy concerns, as well as being centralized to the Cloudflare company.
Makes for a very long, but interesting read for those who are NASA and history buffs.
Whats worse, is everyone and their dog is using them. What happens when they push a bad config to their core routers, or foobar their anycast?
The character limit on DNS is 253; so you've got enough space to be imaginative.
Further; if your startup name is already taken, then you probably should make a new name. Someone who just browses the site won't be able to remember if it was a .io, or a .xyz, or .space. They really don't care, and the first thing they'll try is .com, since that was/is the unwritten standard.
What on earth are you talking about? If a name is taken, a name is taken.
I bypassed NameCheap, because I knew they weren't the ones actually maintaining the records (registrars are just middle-men.) Using the DNS contact in the SOA, I got a response within 12 hours, and it was fully resolved within 24 hours (minus propagation.)
CentralNic contacted NameCheap, as did I, and they got their system fixed within the week.
--Edit--
CentralNic, not Nic. The roots were to nic.xyz.
We got a couple of Connect-X5 cards, which allow switchless connections, akin to a ring topology. A lot of neat things, at just stupid line speeds, and latency levels I haven't seen in software, ever.
Not saying there isn't tracability though those services (especially since we aren't ideal) since the point of the distributed ledger is tracability.
Something that was rather easy was depositing to an exchange, and just withdrawing; you lose the identity of the coins, at the cost of the exchange knowing the connection.
Uh... Add in the fact that staff are now trigger happy, since a single button can do a lot of damage.
