Direct, explicit cache control? NO! Tedious workarounds around an ancient architecture FTW

You can set up your own repo.

Where's the authentication process in TextSegure? Totally MITM'able. Not secure at all.

I am talking about Moxie ond OpenWhisperSystems. They _might_ be good guys but that is not enough reason to completely rely your security on them.

Moxie: "I'd like to avoid distributing APKs outside of the Play Store"

Why give a single entity the power to push a malicious update anytime?

btczeus | 10 years ago | on: The Coder Who Encrypted Your Texts

This. Why do you require Google Play services? Why do you spy on contacts?

This guy is not part of the solution. He is part of the problem. https://f-droid.org/posts/security-notice-textsecure/

There is not any evidence of encryption on WhatsApp, source code is closed so you can never be safe.

I bet Satoshi lost his private key

"cash them"? I think you meant "spend them". Remember bitcoin is money, why convert it to another form of it? How would you "cash out" bills? Convert them to gold? The "What is money" section of the article taught you nothing?

It's not about the rate of the growth. It reflects better percentage movement (that's what's important). Nominal movements in price are meaningless. Really. Thing about it. A 100% growth at $10 is the same as 100% growth at $100 if you want to calculate revenue but it is not reflected as that in a linear scale.

Well then think again. http://stockforecast.wordpress.com/2010/03/05/using-logarith...

So you say a jump from $30 to $31 is equal to a jump from $3 to $4. I thing that is misleading.

When price jumps are small the error also gets small, but it is still there.

Stock price graphic plots should always use logarithmic scale. Spot the difference: http://bitcoincharts.com/charts/bitstampUSD#rg60zczsg2012-01...

For the love of Zeus use logarithmic graphs for the price! http://bitcoincharts.com/charts/bitstampUSD#rg60zczsg2012-01... It does a lot more sense, doesn't it?
