Blockchain had a big 2017

The technology upon which bitcoin operates is suddenly the hot new thing. Acolytes believe it will change how we conduct business, elections, and even finding a mate (more on that later). Suddenly, there’s a blockchain startup for just about everything.

As much as we wish we could, we can’t write about them all. But when thinking back on the year, our email inboxes were so often filled with blockchain pitches that the topic itself deserved attention.

Chris Smith, Vanity Fair
In a year of the nonstop bizarre, President Donald Trump’s enduring affection for Michael Flynn has stood out. Trump, according to James Comey, cleared the Oval Office to ask the then-F.B.I. director to go easy on Flynn. Even after firing his national security adviser for lying to his vice president, Trump went out of his way to publicly declare Flynn a “wonderful man.” Even after Flynn pleaded guilty to a felony and began cooperating with special counsel Robert Mueller,Trump...

A nine-win season at Washington State was a monumental accomplishment worthy of celebration because success had been so fleeting for the Cougars. Yet the past two 9-4 seasons resulted in flops to end the year — first in the Apple Cup against rival Washington and then in the Holiday Bowl both times. The latest deflating finish came in Thursday night's 42-17 loss to Michigan State. It concluded an awkward month where Washington State was routed by the Huskies and missed out on the Pac-12 North title... Читать дальше...
