He wasn't urging caution when he was ahead.

Well, that was a rabbithole. I learned that (BME - Bolsa y Mercados Espanoles - Spanish stock market) is owned by a Swiss company. It blows my mind that countries sell off such important infrastructure, even if in this case to a friendly country.

It means it has no server.

For sure, but I'm still gonna be talking about it.

> Seconds are close to heartbeats which has some psychological nicities

Ah yes, reminds me of the argument feet are better because it's a more human measure than meters (cf surely you're joking Mr Feynman)

You can tell straight away it's a grift from the fact they went thru the trouble of creating a computer graphic of how their factory would look like. I mean, who cares what the factory looks like?

Where is this 2019 coming from? I didn't notice anything different about 2019....
