> and erlangs BEAM is written in C? so... it all doesn't mean much.

Huh? That's an incredibly stupid comment.

lol.

Does this work for Tails? Having a nightmare trying to get Tails working on Sierra.

> but it could also exist and do it's job at $1.00 / btc.

Probably one of the stupidest comments I've read on here. You display not even a basic understanding of how Bitcoin or economics work.

If I have a successful company with 100 shares. People will want those shares which will drive the price up. To fix the price at $1.00, or to dilute shares to keep the price at $1.00 is just ridiculous.

Correct, because as everyone knows, when Americans aren't busy shopping or on holiday, they are busy reading new FCC proposals.

There's not really a sea of money changers here, in fact there's not many outside the backpacker/tourist area downtown. Also, the fact that the country has a few money changers is different that regular businesses accepting currency besides VND. Trying paying for your dinner with USD, I would imagine 80% would not accept it, and the 20% that do, would only do so if you paid at a rate that made it worth their while to go and change it themselves.

As an American living here, I'm all for it. The Vietnamese currency is far superior the American currency. All bills, no coins. Plastic bills that don't rip, and can get wet.

Awesome! Anyway to generate this as a PDF?

Being pre-revenue doesn't mean something has no value. They are calculating it based on what value they deem it to have. If the stolen tech is of vital importance to producing a product that could be worth a nearly 3 billion dollars, then that's what they'll sue for. Actually they'll sue for a bit more, but that's roughly how it works. Like anything, it's better to ask for $10 when someone is only willing to pay $8, than to ask for $5 when someone is willing to pay $8.

Unfortunately people die in HS. So sure, if someone played HS ball, then stopped playing, lived until 60, and got CTE, it would be hard to say it was from HS ball, however when someone dies at 18, and is positive for CTE, that's pretty definitive.

I read somewhere that even one concussion can triple the likelihood of someone suffering from depression later in life. That's pretty scary stuff. Our heads are not meant to be banged against things, so I would think that goes double for a developing brain.

You don't understand the food metaphor. If you have 3 plates of food, but they can be eaten in any order, then 3 people can eat them in 1/3 the time that 1 person could eat them. The food/plate is the code/data, the person/fork is the processor. You're never eating the same exact piece of food at the same time.

The computer science definition of concurrency and parellelism are different that what you're explaining. In CS, a program can only be concurrent. Parallel is to do with how it's run, and the hardware. A concurrent program, is still concurrent even if it's run on a single core, whereas to be considered parallel, it must be running on multiple cores/processors/machines/etc. at the same time.

One way to think of it: If I have three plates of food, that I can eat in any order, but it's just me eating, then this is concurrent. In practice, this is no faster than if I had to eat 1, then 2, then 3, however it has the potential to be. By adding another person, it becomes parallel.

Sounds like your friend is a fool. I had a nicely sized studio in West Hollywood about 2 years ago. It was right on La Brea and Santa Monica, and that cost me $1000. With laundry and parking. The idea of paying $600 to split a room 5 ways is crazy. That is more representative of your friend than it is of LA housing market. WeHo is probably among the more pricy areas in LA(save Beverly Hills, Santa Monica and a few others), and I found and signed for that room in about 6 days. There is a paid rental listing website. It seems like a scam, but it's not. It was called Westside Rental I think, you'll see the name on a lot of signs. It's work the ~$60 for a membership to see all the listings, maybe you can sell your membership to someone else after if there's a few weeks left.

I ended up leaving LA because that place is a hellish shit hole, but not because of the rent.

Can someone explain the scheme to me? I don't quite understand it. I buy a phone from Google, then ship it to NH, they sell it in NH and I make a profit? How? How could it possibly be enough to make it worth it?

This starts in two weeks. I'm taking it too!

> It doesn't make sense for an investor to put in $10 million if you haven't even put in $10 thousand.

That's not always the case, and it depends on the situation. If a startup founder is working for no salary and focusing fulltime on the startup, then money might be better in their pocket, than in the company. $10k could by the founder 6months working at the company. Sweat equity and opportunity cost are also important to consider. Just because a founder hasn't put up cash, doesn't mean they aren't also committed and taking a risk.

It's not quite that easy. While Elixir/Erlang provide a lot of great tools for distribution, it still takes a lot of knowledge and effort. It's not quite a case of "Just use Elixir".

KTH (Stockholm) and they're not using Erlang. Blasphemy!

We would like to implement something like this in the future. A lot of our ideas require building a community first. It's just the two of us, so we need help from the community to improve this site as a resource.

It's the most popular version. We are working on getting more versions up!

Thanks! We are working on getting more texts, versions, and translations. We also need to work on getting more user interaction and growing a community.

Ruby on Rails, Bootstrap, some python for scraping data.
