Hamas […] has nothing to do with religion
From Wikipedia:
Hamas, an acronym of its official name, Harakat al-Muqawama al-Islamiya (Arabic: حركة المقاومة الإسلامية, romanized: Ḥarakat al-Muqāwamah al-ʾIslāmiyyah, lit. ‘Islamic Resistance Movement’)
Love how nobody got the joke
When DST ends you set your clock back 1 hour (or it does it automatically nowadays) in the middle of the night, gaining 1 hour of extra sleep
The joke here is that the guy did the same for Leap Day, setting his clock back 24 hours and gaining 24 hours of sleep, so when his boss called at 2pm he was in the middle of his ~32h night
A blockchain is only as secure as the amount of work (= processing power) that goes into it. Anyone with 51% of the processing power invested in a blockchain can attack it and essentially steal from other people. For cryptocurrencies it’s a problem that solves itself, because every person that possesses some of the cryptocurrency is incentivized to mine to keep it secure (and to earn some at the same time). The more your cryptocurrency is valuable, the more people will want to mine it and the more secure it will be.
For anything other than cryptocurrencies, you can’t incentivize a huge number of people to commit computing power to secure your blockchain. So you have to protect it some other way, for example only allowing you and some trusted people to write on it. But then it doesn’t really need to be a blockchain anymore, just a write-only database (which will perform better and occupy less space).
If it requires no work to generate a block at the end of your blockchain, any attacker can generate malicious ones.
They don’t though, they disable printing with the subscription’s cartridges. You can still buy other cartridges and it will work.
Good thing guns are banned (in civilized countries anyway) so terrorists can’t use them
If you never use medicine that was developed with the help of animal testing I guess you could. If you do use pretty much any kind of antibiotics though, or are unfortunately diabetic and have to use insulin, then it would be pretty hypocritical.
Using the same argument, 10 is one symbol. It is the “ten” symbol.
I’m just pointing out that it makes no sense to say that this system allows writing any number as one symbol.
