"the information needs to be quickly shared with investors"
It's called a web-accessible database.
No need for the not-scalable blockchain nonsense.
I'm interested to see if this actually succeeds.

If the US spent more money on its education system, it might be in better shape.
It's all very nice to have prestigious universities, but if half of the students come from China, what do you think will happen ?
Yes. China will end by dominating. A Chinese person isn't any more stupid than anybody else, and right now, China has a vast proportion of technological industries to work with.
If you think they're not going to learn from that, go have fun at Mar-A-Lago.
It's not difficult to create a hardware notification of mic activity. If the mic is on, then it is using current. Detect the use of current, and light up the LED.
No software can go against that.
If you have a hardware switch, well that prevents the mic from getting current. No software can counter that either.
But of course, this needs to be implemented in hardware.
Once again, a FOSS project finding itself successful finds an excuse to extract money.
Oh sure, only from corporations that make $25+ million. Nice excuse.
Youd didn't say that when you started, you're saying that now that you know your project is being used.
Looks like a bait-and-switch to me.
I should hope so.
Especially since the UK is whining about things it itself had approved and voted for before it left.
The EU is not perfect, but everything it has encated has been approved by all its members - including the UK.
So deal with it.
Of course you can't. That is not what is being requested. What is being requested is that you have a product that works. Something you should have done before making it available.
Once upon a time, when you published your software, you had to make sure it worked because there was no Internet for you to post updates and leave people to manage themselves. If you failed to ensure your software was functional, you wouldn't sell, end of.
These days, with near-ubiquitous Internet access, you no longer care about making a fully functional product, you only care about making a product function enough - the rest will be dealt with by support team.
One guy working in a basement.
I like my FTTH, but sometimes, I long for the times when I could buy a product and it worked.
Not sure I agree with that. The gaming industry is constituted of a handful of giant powerhouses and a sea of small shops struggling to survive and thrive.
When Microsoft acquired Mojang, it absorbed one of the small guys who had become successful, thus diminishing the amount of talent (and competition) that existed in the market. That is not a factor that improves the robustness of the market.
If Microsoft continues to acquire any and every house of any success, then the market will be down to whatever the top three are today. That won't make for a very dynamic industry.
I would think the reverse : phone only switched on at home or at the office.
The goverment already has that data from other sources. Where you go, on the other hand, should be your own private business, unless there's an emergency.
A cable is a cable. It's a bit of wire with certain mechanical properties, mainly, the ability to transfer current.
Our technology allows us to modulate that current to transfer data, but that has nothing to do with the cable and everything to do with the bits the cable is plugged into.
So, what is the difference between an "active" and a "passive" cable, given that the cable isn't given the choice ?
I had my FTTH line snagged by the local farmer's tractor - don't ask me how but apparently it had been installed a bit low on the pole across the street.
The line was intact, but it was on the ground. So I still had my connection, but the line was on the ground.
I had to explain three times to the helpdesk drone before he got the message. The line is intact, yes, but it is physically on the ground. Please come and hang it back up again.
I even got a visit from an actualy supervisor (yes, in person) who came to check on the situation.
Didn't make any difference though, they left it on the ground until some vehicle passed and wrecked it a month later. Oh, then they were there in two days to redo the whole installation.
So how could I explain this to an AI bot when actual humans took an hour to understand and then still didn't do anything until the line was actually physically cut ?
Here's some professional advice for free : don't.
Only time will tell ? Really ?
It's been well-nigh 14 years since BitCoin started burning the world and nothing good has come of it, or any of its siblings, since.
However, the number of exchanges run by crooks or idiots has been revealed to be, well, practically all of them.
This is a case where you should actually throw the baby out with the bathwater.
It seems that Tiversa was a front for a bunch of miscreants playing "ethical" hackers, but with the intent of extracting money from another bunch of incompetents pretending to do medical analysis.
Smells like Theranos. It would seem that this is a trend.
In any case, I'll be enjoying the popcorn.
I'm sorry, when was that promised ? I don't recall ever hearing that AWS was compatible with Azure or anything else.
Yes, that is becoming a requirement now, especially since businesses are losing their brains and flocking to someone else's server to host their business-critical data, but that was never mentioned when AWS, Azure or anything else starting building the business.
An interesting idea, but one that is probably going to have to wait a few years before being useful.
And I mean, a few years after it is in orbit.
I don't think that todays' satellites are capable of being refueled - but I don't know for sure. Once the orbital station is in place and has published its fueling procedure, maybe satellite makers can take that into account but, today, nobody has planned for that and planning is everything where a satellite is concerned.
It's a good idea, for sure, but I have the feeling the company is going to need to survive at least twenty years before actually starting to make any money.
I'm starting to think that there are a few other areas that should be off limits to politicians.
Like state policy, for starters.
Let's just say we keep them around for visiting politicians from other countries, or to send them off to visit politicans in other countries.
They know how to hold a glass of wine, and that's about it.
The explanation is simple : human stupidity.
Try explaining why France has a nuclear industry that hasn't experienced any such incident.
If nuclear was that dangerous, there would be whole portions of countries that would not be inhabitable.
Go educate yourself on Tchernobyl before spouting such nonsense.
