Posted in: Has blockchain found a use beyond crypto trading? See in context

The blockchain isn't solving anything here.

That's like saying you don't need email because we already have a postal system

"If I have a carton of apples and report that I put 100 percent of them on the truck, but then I skim off 50 percent for myself, the blockchain is not going to prevent that."

That's what auditing is for. Which is much easier and cheaper on a Blockchain than on the current systems

I disagree with those calling it a 'silly booking system'. It's not silly, it's generous. Criticising it for not being more mistrusting is cynical

@DanSmith

You getting down voted so much shows most people don't want to understand the local customs, they'd rather change it to what they deem acceptable. They're trying to cherry pick their way through life

Posted in: Grounded Japanese try virtual overseas holidays See in context

Why do people down vote comments that say things like 'to each their own'? Part of being a grown up is accepting that some people enjoy things that maybe you don't and if they're not hurting anyone then you don't have the right to interfere with your negativity

@goodlucktoyou

I’m a vegetarian so not good, I’m a scuba diver, good

So whether climate change is a good thing or a bad thing only depends on how it effects you directly? Wow

Posted in: Food poisoning hits 3,453 teachers, students in Saitama schools See in context

Mass food poisoning seems a common occurrence in Japanese schools but not in other developed nations (it comes up several times a year).

Possibly because of the amount of sea food served in Japanese schools as opposed to in Western schools.
