Do you realize that this video doesn't contradict what I said? The hacker got caught, and (some of) the money got returned, and that's what they are showing in that video.

If the guy didn't get caught, they would have never found anything, unless the thief is dumb enough to send these coins to his exchange.

If it were me, I would randomly mix 40,000 coins between random addresses, random amounts, random times for like a year. Never using the same address again. I would mix them with other coins. You might end up with 10,000 addresses holding random amounts of coins, but that's not a big deal at all. You need some cash? LocalBitcoins in a neighboring town. Or create an online business and buy your own product from yourself. Or build a website, put ads on it, and buy quality traffic with bitcoin (arbitrage).
Bernie SAND WARS – A Bernie Sanders Star Wars Parody
I was expecting you to bring up the point about how many of the people featured simply seem to have much more money than sense.

One that particularly sticks in the mind for me was a nice old gent who got heavily into drugs in his teens so his family trust fund was taken out of his control. He had to ask permission from the trustees to build a £350,000 custom designed house,specifically designed around him, even though he hated houses and had lived most of his life in a mobile houseboat and never spent much time in one place.
The US wasn't any better at all... In 2012, "only 30 to 50 percent of America’s Predators and Reapers [were] using fully encrypted transmissions" - "the [original] Predators’ version of the CDL carrier signal (also known as a “waveform”) didn’t include an order to encrypt the signal."

They should just add a UTF8 type... I don't know why that wasn't the default for strings all along.
To be clear, getting a deal done is the primary reason a company would hire an investment bank.

An investment banker who is effective and has integrity would first determine what a client's expectations are (particularly around valuation and transaction size), and a discussion would ensue about how that aligns with the banker's expectations of the market's appetite for such a deal. If the client is comfortable with the guidance that the banker has provided, the banker then fields offers from investors/acquirers to find the best deal available to them in the market.

If the bids come back at or above expectations that the banker and client have discussed, great, they do the deal. If bids come in below expectations, another discussion ensues on whether the client is willing to accept a lower bid or not.

Bankers' incentives are clearly to get a deal done, but at the end of the day, the go / no-go call is made by the client. And as I've mentioned, the reason a client hires a bank in the first place is to get a deal done, assuming terms are reasonable. It's not like a bank has the power to force a deal down a client's throat.

Also, another dynamic is that banks like Goldman generally charge upfront retainers in addition to success-based fees. Doing that throws a wrench into alignment in the first step, where the reasonableness of exploring a transaction in the first place should be discussed.
Yep pretty much it shreds the image and builds a new valid frame from it, some quite often do some separate things to the chroma and luminescence carriers with drones really depends because some times if you are transmitting multiple black and white images you can cheat an multiplex them together and basically instead of extrapolating the correct color from each field you can extrapolate 2 different images.
Because it's analogue data you always getting an image regardless if you have the correct key or not, and because of the limitations of the encryption/scrambling it self once you get a key which is close enough you being to reconstruct various parts of the correct image even in a form of artifacts so things like edges become apparent very quickly.
It wouldn't work. That's not what CloudFlare does (right? they didn't do BGP last I heard). You'd need something like Black Lotus, now owned by Level3, for that.
If TSG has a flaw it is IMHO that Dawkins did not fully have the courage of his convictions. When he introduced the concept of a meme he insisted it was just an allegory, an illustrative thought experiment but nothing more. I think this is wrong. I think memes are every bit as legitimately considered alive as genes. This idea has a lot of explanatory power. We humans are hosts not just for genes, but for memes as well, in a sort of symbiotic relationship. Sometimes the interests of our genes and our memes align, such as when we invent antiseptics and antibiotics. Other times they conflict, such as when we invent birth control. The seemingly irreconcilable split between liberals and conservatives could be explained as the beginning of a species split resulting from this conflict, with liberals evolving a bias towards the interests of memes and conservatives biased towards the interests of genes

My plan is to keep saying this on Linode threads, just in case there are people who have missed it. Take my advice or leave it:

Please don't use Linode. If you are using it now, make immediate plans to switch. If you have friends who have things built on Linode servers, tell them to switch.
I have to voice disagreement on cherries. I grew up near a park with a ready supply of wild cherry trees, which I gorged myself on many a summer - compared to a big Bing cherry they have a really concentrated flavor and a juicer, less firm meat that would bruise pretty easily in shipment. I at least like them much more

I renamed the one mention of "Religion" in my post to "Belief in a supernatural being". This is such a trivial edit anyway ... do you have anything substantial to contribute towards the key point I've made in my comment above?
The beginning of the end started with cutting developers off. Twitter could've been the tent pole of a whole ecosystem letting its user community evolve the social experience organically. Instead it opted for an arrogant top-down approach that has essentially killed its relevance.
Ask HN: Why is the design of hackernews that terrible?
Seriously, why is the design of the hn page that shitty?

I mean, if you open up a page with lots of comments and replies, you can't see the forest for the trees.

And on the other hand, it wouldn't be too difficult to design a page with better UX.
> I mean, I assuming that people aren't all purchasing agricultural parts, fishing gear, and other exempt categories of items -- is if the imported goods are being misrepresented as personal use items.

Yeah, not so much anything in those categories.

You know that part where I said, somebody is going to see the inside of an African jail cell....

If you keep this up, I bet you are going to see the insides of some American jail cells too, as you are either party to illegal acts or encourage/facilitate such. IANAL, so YMMV, but you have been warned.
Can't tell if you're being sarcastic, but you should be weary of the information you read on Reddit. A lot of people simply rehash untrue statements they've heard on Reddit before. I'd say this is true anywhere but Reddit seems to be exceeding prevalent.
> I usually interpret 'selfish' to mean genes that produce defectors (ie no flip) since there is a local benefit to the organism (and thus the gene itself over short timescales) but Dawkins does use it a bit more broadly.

Dawkins seems to define "selfish gene" as "one caring about its long term survival and spread", whether individual tortoises like it or not. Because that's what ultimately counts - contemporary tortoises are shaped by genes which survived millions of years by whatever means happened to be successful, which needs not to be defection.

And, btw, you may want to actually read TSG, it's pretty cool :)

Why subtree over submodule?
You can provide this national origin information voluntarily if you wish. If it means you get a credit score then most people would. The problem right now is all immigrants are treated as they are the highest possible credit risk with no effort made to adjust on the basis of personal circumstances.
Do you say this specifically because of these attacks, or is there something more?
I'm surprised I have to make the argument to someone on Hacker news about the fundamentalness of software, applications, and choice. You have a limited view of the smartphone world.

Every one has different and unique needs. I sell software to personal trainers who run their entire business on the phones. Perhaps your needs are small are boring and that's fine. But most people have more needs and wants than what just comes built in.

I don't have many apps on my phone but the ones I end up using are surprising. My transit app ensures I don't miss my bus to work in the morning (vital). My health insurances phone app is much better than their website. I have a Pebble smartwatch so installed software actually makes that possible. Not to mention time wasters like games, reddit, etc. So many applications are available for every possible need it's fantastic.

Too many other people actually use their tiny pocket computers to the fullest -- they are the majority. Microsoft has not made en ecosystem that appeals to this majority.

OneSignal is hiring full-stack devs to help make push notifications smarter
Hey, Thomas. I crossed swords with you when I worked at Linode and we had a brief HN argument about side-channel attacks in Xen (remember that?). I gained respect for your opinion and experience from that, and I think you should blog your perspective on this if you haven't. I, personally, would be very interested in reading it, especially if you've done any kind of security analysis on Linode.
Could you plan on giving reasons why too?
Distributed Computing networks like 'MaidSafe' appear to have potential at disrupting how software projects have worked up until now.
The 'unconditional' part is only important in the beginning. Once the subject qualifies (begins receiving the annuity) then the criterion is irrelevant to studying their behavior while receiving the benefit.

For the person receiving them, those things listed offer the same benefits as BI - money regularly received no matter how you behave. To determine what effect that has on people, then we need simply record those results to get a large data set.

To fund even a tiny study (a dozen people?) for a tiny amount of time (5 years?) would cost an exorbitant amount. Its kind of silly to even talk about. Especially when we have data sets of millions of people in almost the same circumstances.

I read this proposal as absurd. Its typical of Silicon Valley to imagine getting results from a tiny study (focus groups etc) that are worth anything.

Some words and standards can indicate quality. "Pasture Eggs" for example, are more expensive but also a better product. Also, going to a farmer's market and buying from producers directly instead of a supermarket is one way to shop for quality.

I wouldn't want to use nutritionism as the definition of quality, because so far nutritionism has been too reductionist to capture the full picture. There's a wide variety of micronutrients that turn out to be useful, but are easily depleted from the soil in a monoculture. Are you getting your Vitamin K12? Selenium? Zinc? Copper? Choline? Are the animals you eat getting theirs?
While unsatisfying I think the answer is "because of the culture we find ourselves in". Nothing more, nothing less.

Culturally speaking, leprechauns, unicorns and Darth Vader have no relation to "Why is there something instead of nothing?" and other such deep questions. I really think that's all it is.

The best alternative to antibiotics is more antibiotics - a flood of more antibiotics, more than we could ever use up. The best way to do that is support automation and other efficiency gains and individual projects in mining the bacterial world for novel antibacterial weaponry. That used to be impractical, but now that there is, as of 2015, a way to culture the 99% of bacteria that couldn't be cultured before, it is now very practical to look for everything we might need in biomedicine in the bacterial world.

Yes, there will still need to be speed limits. But if, say, the roads are designed with a 12' lane, the people will tend to drive faster than on a 10' lane. (See http://www.citylab.com/design/2014/10/why-12-foot-traffic-la... .)

I believe vcarl's point is to design the roads for the speed limit, so the speed limit matches what people will perceive to be the right speed for the road. Don't have speed limits which are lower than the perceived limit.

The clumsy way to do this is to put in traffic calming devices. Narrowing the streets is less in-your-face, and comes with other advantages, like cheaper road maintenance. Both are also ways to communicate the appropriate speed limit, in addition to a sign which says the same thing.
Another explanation.

After reading and accepting the ideas the person can't say.
-"God has a plan for me" or "I'm on a mission from god"
To see life positively one has to interpret things like
-"I'm so lucky my ID created me"
into
-"I'm lucky to be in this small habitual space in the galaxy where the sun shines
and I don't have to fear death on a daily basis."

Reviews insist it's depressing but I don't think so.
I'm not going to personally go shouting at people to "accept the truth".
An atheist version of a Jehovas Witness is quite similarly obnoxious.
No worries, thanks for detailing it though. It sounds interesting, I might try to do something similar where I work, or at least have a play around with RevealJS as it sounds pretty cool!
What do you suggest as an alternative to Linode?
Static content generation, better optimizations and caching settings would go a long way... hell since many blogs are using third party comment systems, they should probably cache all requests for not logged in users for 5 minutes by default... it's up the application servers though.

Making any variance between logged in, and not logged in visitors limited to JS enhanced interactions would help for most systems too.

A current server can pretty easily hit C100K per cpu core... There have been test runs at over a million concurrent connections on a single large server instance. It's all on the application design... using an application that's a couple decades old as a common baseline is part of the problem... honestly, wordpress should just die already.

> Edit: I'm in SF and routinely buy local, organic, blahblahblah. I've still had better dairy elsewhere.

Organic is basically irrelevant as far as I can tell. The type of the cow and how it's handled makes a huge difference, though.

Have you tried St. Benoît milk? It's available at a bunch of farmer's markets in the bay area, and most Whole Foods and well as a handful of other stores carry it. It's 4% milkfat (it's from actual Jersey cows!) and rivals any milk I've tasted abroad for flavor.
Not to mention missing and/or poorly configured caching defaults...

Digg threads become too full and the model just didn't scale up. A thread with 10k up votes and 1000 comments is not inviting to new users. A stupid or insightful comment on such a thread will be completely ignored if it wasn't the first post.

In contrast Reddit has thousands of small communities that let new users be heard. Down voting and arguing over "bad" comments gives an impression of authority that make the user want to learn and impress the group. It is really all just a game.
You don't think the stock market maps perfectly to real world markets? Average investors need nano-second liquidity. Hedgefunds help the price stay consisten so that when a massive order comes in it goes into a blackpool and is split up, that way the price isn't off by 0.001% which in my opinion, is well worth destabalizing tge global economy.

I mean, prices are just information, don't we want that information to be a meaningless and irrelevent measure? Luckily, equities prices are well known to be irrelevent to investors.

a well known fact that price was dropped from standard metrics several years ago in favour of popularity.

Food snob mode: there are some growers in some areas that grow "dry-farmed" early girls. It pushes the season much later in the year. The best I've ever tried, by far, are in Palo Alto at the downtown farmer's market. They're available for a fairly long season in the fall.
They are slightly tender and the stem can be wiggled a bit. Beyond that, I don't know how to objectively quantify it, but if you know what a perfectly ripe avocado feels like, it's about the same or just a little bit less. They might ripen in the fridge another half-day's worth. And if you don't know that, trial and error will quickly converge to an optimal solution within a few tries.

Just realised I didn't answer about the funding.

We put the idea to Google as part of their 'impact challenge' which they give funding for good ideas that help develop technical services / projects for society and those in need.

The database of services mostly already existed thanks to us running that for the last 20-25 years in various forms as mentioned in my other reply.

We spent a lot of time on the research and working with homeless and at risk people to understand what they actually need / want and how they would find it, a lot of UX research went into the project and a lot of time is still being spent on search result quality which if you've dealt with before - is always hard.
Now, I haven't even been trying to poke holes in your operation, but even with this cursory overview of your business, it's obvious to a mere layperson that your whole setup has enough holes to drive a truck full of C4 through.

I urge you to stop and halt all operations, before somebody gets into trouble, has legal issues or get sued.

Only when you are reasonably sure from a legal and regulatory perspective that there are to lingering or contentious issues should you proceed.

Sometimes it's better to ask for forgiveness rather than permission. This is not one of them.

Having worked for a Big Four firm in an exceedingly junior role, it's quite clear how this happened, and how it could happen anywhere. These big firms attach their names to work done by very junior people. The companies have a lot of experience at what they do, so their processes tend to be okay at producing an acceptable end result, but so much of their work is done by utterly clueless junior folks, that it's amazing things don't go sideways more often. Then again, an accounting opinion is just that -- an opinion. In the end, the liability tends to be very limited.

To use a legal word I don't fully understand, it seems Goldman was completely negligent here, but not necessarily in a criminal way -- if that's possible. They had a client that needed a lot of hand-holding, but it was small potatoes to a big bank, and they utterly failed to serve their client's interests.

Of course, because they're the big fish, they've probably covered their asses pretty well in a legal sense, and won't owe a dime. It's not right, but it's probably what will happen, legally.

Yes, if companies in lower cost of living areas want more people, they will have to increase how much they pay; if they can't match "market" H1B rates they could increase their pay until they can recruit people from other areas of the US. I don't think there is anything wrong with that.
