The phrase "conspiracy theory" has been so successfully tied to idiots like the "we never went to the moon" brigade and the flat-earth mob that anyone talking of actual conspiracies can easily be tainted by association.
That's something that could be seen as a ..........

A new and exciting piece of Software technology comes out. It’s slick and shiny, and it promises to do something that was never before thought possible. It’s revolutionary and everyone talks about it.
And then nothing happens. As opposed to problem-driven tech solutions

Bitcoin slid to as low as $9,000 in volatile trade on Thursday, having lost more than a fifth of its value since hitting an all-time high of $11,395 on Wednesday. Don't worry, it's still insanely overvalued

That "blip" has been erased already. Overvalued is hard to say; if more people adopt BC, or even move a bit of their wealth into BC, then the price will go up even more - since demand grows, and production doesn't.
MacAfee predicted "100.000$" BC by 2020, or he would "eat his d*ck[^]". Not that we'd be alive, as according to Elon Musk AI will have wiped out humanity by then.
And now, even PWC[^] is accepting BitCoin, apparently they don't mind the so called "volatility"

If you have to tell the thing where it is - it doesn't have GPS. No more a programming error than the spaceship that crashed after operators confused miles with kilometres.

It’s been almost 20 years since Microsoft released the first version of the C# language. From its inception—when some unjustly deemed it a mere Java copycat—until now, C# has had a remarkable evolution. "And remember my friend, future events such as these will affect you in the future."

At Mozilla we’re excited about the potential of speech recognition. We believe this technology can and will enable a wave of innovative products and services, and that it should be available to everyone. Maybe it's time for a voice interface for CP?

Cloud9 isn’t all that different from similar IDEs and editors like Sublime Text, but as AWS stressed during today’s keynote, it allows for collaborative editing and it’s also deeply integrated into the AWS ecosystem. The tool comes with built-in support for languages like JavaScript, Python, PHP and others. Cloud9 also includes pre-installed debugging tools. This way to the walled garden
