Hey Google, you can't do waitlists/not available in your country if you are chasing your competitors and your product is inferior.

Banning it would make malware encrypt your data for "fun" and not profits of malware groups. Just like viruses in the '90s were written for fun.

Take a look at dated, but still relevant book by Brian Goetz - Java Concurrency in Practice - many problems are illustrated with a code section.
Re:I translated a simple C program to x86_64 and it was slower

Thank you for your answer! Any idea why would loops not use LSD when programmed using loopXX instructions but would use when cmp/jnX is used?
Re:I translated a simple C program to x86_64 and it was slower

loopXX instructions do not use CPU LSD (Loop Stream Detector) while cmp/jnz construct takes advantage of it. This speeds up some small loops. Also, there are some rules in intel manuals for instructions within cmp/jnz loop like no mismatched push/pop, etc.
now, does anyone know why?

This will probably be great for people who trade a lot of cryptocurrencies. In some countries crypto-crypto trading is free from taxation. When cyclic crypto bubble bursts and multi-year downtrend starts, you have to sell those cryptocurrencies for USD and pray exchange does not go bankrupt/hacked/exit scam or withdraw and pay taxes. Right now there are some forms of stable coins issued by private companies with no guarantee of buying back issued tokens. Very unstable market. FBCoin may change this. I believe first customers will be cryptcurrency exchanges.

not true - you can have a program that is free of data races but still contains race conditions. Rust prevents data races.

Well, price has risen not because of businesses across the world adopting the currency but because of only Baidu saying they will accept Bitcoin. That does not justify 50% rise at all.
