Who came up with these conversations? Hard to believe this was part of the training data. And where does the training data come from? To what extent is it applicable to academic or corporate settings?
The question means all of our Bitcoin at Coinbase. He's not making a conspiracy theory out of it - he's asking a legitimate question about whether or not Coinbase has all deposits accounted for or not.
That's a rationalization around the original blaming statement you made. You asked how we should know if they are secure. He said how do you know they haven't been hacked already? Both legitimate, up to the point you said he was making conspiracy theories.
I assumed he was talking like they had just spent the bitcoin (Mt Gox stylee). Even if they were hacked, I would expect Coinbase to disclose that information--to presume that they've been hacked, lost bitcoin, and are hiding that from everyone is a pretty wild theory in my book.
Why is multi-sig in quotes? Is Coinbase providing its users with a '3' address that is on-block chain, or does this "multi-sig" approach still reside entirely off-block chain.
Edit: I presume that Coinbase still holds on to all of the private keys for Vault accounts. Can someone verify otherwise?
Well, nobody is forcing anyone to participate in the pool. People can just switch to other pools. But here again greed will win, because those who participate in biggest pool can expect most reward.
Same issue happened to me, Google responded several hours later with the following email:
"""
Dear AdMob Developer,
Last week, we wrote to let you know that on December 19th 2013 we would initiate refunds to you for unused legacy AdMob advertising credits. Today we are writing to let know that between December 19th and 20th we inadvertently processed refunds for more than your unused balance. In some cases, customers will see multiple refund amounts on their bank card statement.
To correct this error, we have reversed these incorrect refunds with corresponding transactions for the same amount(s). These corrections have been processed on December 23rd and December 24th to the same bank card that the initial refund(s) was processed to. This means that you will see one negative and one positive transaction on your card statement for each refund made in error. These transactions will have “GOOGLE*ADMOB” as the description for the credits.
We will be processing the correct refund in early January 2014 for the correct amount owed to you. You will see a separate transaction for this refund amount on your January or February bank card statement.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you.
If you have any questions about this communication please check out our FAQ’s linked here.
There clearly is lots of innovation going on, but 54 Mbps wireless hardware was introduced over 11 years ago!
Furthermore, AT&T's DSL speed has only exhibited a .15 Mbps CAGR over the past 5 years to its current peak of 6 Mbps. Comcast's average cable internet speeds were 6 Mbps from 2005 to 2007, until they jumped to 12 Mbps in 2008.
Just one of the many examples that highlights the market for energy-proportional computing. Check out http://www.cra.org/ccc/docs/ieee_computer07.pdf. Machines today still consume around 50 percent of total peak power while sitting at idle!
