well I was with you to the end but then I figured turnabout is fair play, and blow hard Europeans imagining they know what is best for the internal matters of the US is a couple of magnitudes less than blow hard Americans blowing the other way with often even less knowledge of what they're blowing about.

At any rate I believe the parent to your comment is misinformed, in the European countries I'm familiar with if your funny prank leads to a death, especially a foreseeable death, you're probably going to have a bad time in court explaining why you don't have any responsibility.
An interesting service this lambda is. Amazon wants to bill people money for basically hosting xinetd scripts. I wonder how much money do they make from it.
That kind of "name calling" is pretty common in many areas. Watch some debates in British parliament, for example. Do you really think the Chief Financial Officer of one of the biggest companies in the world is unable to handle it? All you will do if you pursue this sterilisation of language is drive away the really intelligent, if idiosyncratic, people and help build an echo chamber.
How would you define "overvalued"? Is it the current average price compared to a very low price three months from now? What if it recovers a few weeks after that — would that change the fact that it was once "overvalued"? Valuation is not based on nothing, in vacuum. The challenge is to understand the underlying factors. The post you replied to actually tried to shed some light.

Thanks for explanation, it's somehow clearer to me, now. There's one thing I still don't understand: doesn't this mean it's basically just a small server app with a standardized api (as in, api must be implemented in a certain way which allow to call its endpoints as if we were calling functions directly)? What is the specificity of lambda? (beside the pricing style, making pay for requests rather than app execution time)

Yes. Microservice-first is and always has been a terrible idea; spinning out microservices as bottlenecks arise is much better. Most successful microservice systems were monoliths first.

You double checked second hand sources which don't link to primary sources, so at best you are speculating (that) I were wrong, thank you very much.

Edit: And either way, I didn't contest make do as it is used now, I merely hinted at a different origin. So, by that line of reasoning, if make due is in use, it is correct simply by merit of custom, as well.

PS: And this is why these comments are frowned upon, they invariably lead to discussion without a slight chance of consensus.

PPS: But since I tried it already, googles index of old books shows a CLEAR preference for make due. In my opinion though, I'd settle on neither is correct, just like shortenings like "I'd" aren't correct to use in writing.

I have understood how this is acceptable in USA and in many parts of the world. This concept of plea bargains and not having to prove anything beyond a certain limit. I mean isn't it clearly the notion that miscarriage of justice is accepted?

I accept that a lot of this idea in my head is from films set in the USA but then again I have read on the subject and plea deals seem to be not only accepted but encouraged.

How a person, who seemed to have murdered someone, ought to be given only M years of sentence just because that person agrees for a plea deal where if properly tried and proven guilty the person might have been sentenced for N years which usually would be more than M? Just because the prosecution have to work less the culprit gets a lesser sentence? And as you say many who are arrested and haven't done anything but just wants to live with a lesser sentence just agree to such deals because they can't afford a lawyer, let alone a good lawyer.

Is it not questioned? Is it something in the constitution? How does it work? The "deal" itself - is it verbal or plea deals are actually signed and verified?
I can reflect to that. As a person that lived over 10 years abroad, coming back to Greece and Crete has been difficult. I can see myself and some foreigners that resided here after their pension came in, doing things that we wouldn't do e.g in the UK. (I can see changing in the way I drive, interact etc and that has been paved by the surroundings, given the fact that I got my licence in the UK and have been driving for 10 years there, without any prior driving in Greece. Now that I am back I can see how I've changed the way I drive and its mainly cause of the other drivers, you have to adapt. Driving is just an example to show that even people that ain't willing to change their mentality based on their surroundings, do change in order to accomodate.)

My position is that the caller needs to be held responsible. If you agree that it was not done for fun, then I really don't know why you are arguing with me at all. Everything you have said agrees that the caller acted with malice aforethought. I cannot comprehend how you think that justifies letting him off the hook.

General police violence in the US is not a justification for saying the caller should not be held responsible for their part in this.

Apple has the opposite problem. On my version of OSX, Spotlight searches in the Finder return email results too, which increases the noise-to-signal results dramatically. You can turn it off but this requires you to enter your search term as a formula every time--there's no way to make it the default. If I want to search my email, I'll switch to the Mail program and search there. I neither want nor need to search my mail in the Finder.

If you choose to use JWTs I suggest still keeping a database of tokens and validate against that. This way you have an option to revoke the token and force client to get a new one. This is useful for when token data becomes stale, e.g. email changed, roles added etc. Simply keeping it all in token is not enough.

> The lightning network will only work for exchanges who will keep channels open between them. Getting a graph of every wallet connected to every other wallet is a mathematical impossibility.

Transactions can be routed through multiple channels, you don't need to open a channel to every single wallet you want to transact with. That would not be a Lightning network, it would just be payment channels.

> The lightning network is essentially instituting central banking all over again, this time with bitcoin. "Oh so you want to transfer coins quickly? Better keep them at well connected exchange so it can be instantaneous, and you'll only be transferring between exchanges by the way."

Not even close to central banking, LN transacts real Bitcoins, not IOU's, so they can't print more base money or more debt-based money. There's also no trust needed (no counter-party risk and you can route around censorship attempts)

Nowadays the bank regulation is a bit more complicated than simple reserve requirements, and the capital held in "safe" assets (central bank deposits, government issued loans etc) is not there in the case if you need it (most of the time when you "need" your money, bank actually does not pay it out, but just changed whom it ows the money i.e. makes an account transfer), but it is there for the losses bank may make in their credit portfolio.

A simple example:

Bank has 90 deposits and 10 equity. That is used to finance 80 mortgages and 20 deposits in central banks.

Now, if the deposit customers have full understanding what kind of mortgages the bank has issued, they can estimate how likely it is that more than 10 of the mortgages fail, bank goes bankrupt and the deposit holder does not get paid full.

You see quickly that there is many ways how a bank kan reduce the risk in its credit portfolio. If the bank decides to lend only 10 and store 90 in central bank deposits, the risk of the bank losing more than 10 is quite small. but of course, you get more money from mortgages than from central bank, so you want to lend as much as you can to mortgages to maximize revenue. But then you need to pay also more to the (rational) deposit holders because of increased risk. You see also very quickly that even if the deposit holders had full understanding of the balance sheet, the calculations would be so difficult that wihtout regulation, most would inves their savings to banks that are riskier than what they think -> and lose their money.

Literally the comment above:

> It's their obligation to serve their client's interest, not the society's. If the client would want to help the society as a whole is his decision to make, not this institution's.

Not in Germany, for example. The german constitution specifically states this:

Art 14, (2) Eigentum verpflichtet. Sein Gebrauch soll zugleich dem Wohle der Allgemeinheit dienen.

It's absolutely fine if a company decides to use its market power to shift things towards community good. There are many investment funds and banks that among their goals have benefits to society (GLS Bank, as another german example). Companies are also not required to put clients short term interest before the companies long-term survival. You're not forced to be a client, you're welcome to move to a investment fund that doesn't have such a policy if you think they perform better.

We need to run software on clients machines, we need this software to be running as service (no UI). This service needs to communicate back to use securely via our Web API.

We could have a password entered by our systems guys who deploy to a new machine for the first time, the service encrypts and stores that on disc, then each time it wants to talk to us it can decrypt its password.

I'm not sure if that would be a good solution, or is it just as insecure as having password in the code.

> If you want to handle as many transaction as for example Visa, you would need 1 GB blocks every 10 minutes, which would make the whole blockchain heavily centralized because regular users won't be able to host full nodes to validate payments.

The whole blockchain is already "centralized" in that sense - almost all mining happens in a small number of large mining pools.

1GB every 10 minutes doesn't sound so bad. Random users probably won't run full chains on their desktops, sure, but the option's available if they want to (in distinct contrast to Lightning). Third-party service providers could run full chains and sell validation against the full chain as a service, in a competitive free market - you don't need anyone's permission to run the full chain, so if prices get high or service gets bad then another provider can enter the market.
Yeah that POS needs to be in prison or psychiatric instituton or whatever, we all agree on that.

That way, we all live, and whoever is accused of crime, can be dealt with judge and jury and so on. In this case, the guy that was murdered by police would be not dead... he may be sore, and also pissed, but that surely beats being dead.

You are overestimating the value of gold as a utility.

Think about diamonds. They have utility to and they have value as jewelry, they used to be of almost no value as jewelry.

Please do tell what the correct value is for a bitcoin and how you arrived at that number.
Isn't A350 the competitor to Dreamliner?

No. The A350 and 787 both use composite materials, and that's the end of the similarities; they're planes of different size classes, designed for different market niches.

The A350 is a competitor for the 777; both planes are designed for high-demand long-haul routes.

Airbus currently does not have a competitor for the 787, which is designed for medium-demand long- to ultra-long-haul routes.

Or in other words: an A350 or 777 is what you fly between two major top-tier cities with lots of passenger demand. Think of routes like Hong Kong to San Francisco (which is routinely flown by... A350s and 777s). A 787 is what you fly between places that are far apart, but don't have quite so much demand.

This is important because the 787 has opened up the possibility of flying routes airlines wouldn't have considered before, while the A350 just plops into existing routes easily. The 787 was basically single-handedly responsible for the return of trans-Pacific flights to San Jose, for example, and Qantas is about to launch nonstop(!) service from Perth to London on a 787.

The A380's useful payload is actually less then a 747 freighter. The added weight of the aircraft itself, plus the extra fuel necessary to get and keep it airborne, eats up all the extra takeoff weight capacity and then some.

Plasma on ARM: State of the Union
The A380's maximum takeoff weight is 575,000kg, compared to 447,700kg for a 747-8 freighter. However, the A380 -- sitting empty on the ground -- weighs 80,000kg more to begin with, and also requires more fuel (because of its greater mass).

The result is that the useful payload of an A380 is lower than a 747-8F (about 84,000kg versus 132,000kg).

And that's without getting into the other issues, like the A380's structural middle-deck (which can't be removed to turn the interior into a giant cargo hold) or inability to have its nose turned into a large cargo door like a 747 (the A380's flight deck is too low to the ground, in order to maintain training compatibility with the A330 and A340).

You could do one better but that would be missing the point.

The claim was that gold have intrinsic value and bitcoin doesn't. But to the extent of discussing intrinsic value in economical terms then bitcoin does too.

In other words you can't both have your cake and eat it.

Either both bitcoin and gold has intrinsic value in economical terms or none of them have in philosophical terms.
