Actually, your experience sounds great! In general, it is much easier to find people with narrow interests. While it might seem to you that you are not employable, this is just an illusion - there are many developers, but few with experience "from development to product design to finance". This makes you a great fit for virtually any smaller company which doesn't have a separate person for each role - startups, new businesses,...

TL;DR: You didn't fail. You learned.

As for burnout - been there. If it's any consolation, it will go away once you find something new that will keep you motivated.
I regularly have to tell vendors that the "we want to grow with you" pitch doesn't work with big enterprises. We want cost to be CAPPED. The right pricing model is a no brained entry price point that grows to a reasonable price for all you can eat.
Interesting post from the comments ...

"The FBI did not investigate writers according to their literary merits. As Kurt Vonnegut's biographer, I can tell you that, despite his publishing Slaughterhouse-Five— one of the most popular anti-war novels of the 1960s— the FBI didn't keep a file on him. But the bureau did monitor the lives and works of Amiri Baraka, Lorraine Hansberry (a 1,000-page file), W.E.B. Du Bois, Ralph Ellison, Chester Himes, and Richard Wright, among others.

What the bureau opposed was African American literature and its potential— a backhanded recognition of that genre's power to influence readers. No cultural upheaval would be coming from the likes of Roth, Updike, or Mary McCarthy, for reasons you no doubt understand."
It seems you could excel at one thing if you could choose between the three. Pick one up, get a medium job and then excel. You're no failure, don't worry about that. And yeah, maybe get some perspective working in another country? Not sure what you mean by mentally exhausted (differences between individuals I guess) but your three months inactivity should have reduced that stress. You can't be doing 'no thing' even though you don't work. Take it easy, learn some new stuff, quit habits increasing stress. That kind of things should help I guess.
Yes, and please don't take this as a snarky comment:

ctrl+f "digital currencies" and you will see exactly how involved the bill is with Bitcoin.

You are right to suspect this is the reddit crowd over-reacting, and the amendment to the title is probably better. Basically, there is a proposition to include the words "Digital Currenc(ies/y)" into a few places in the bill.

I am somewhat reminded of an earlier court case from Florida where the judge dismissed charges involving Bitcoin because there was no legal definition for it. This bill is basically addressing that and presenting a legal framework for Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing investigations to allow investigation of Bitcoin as well.

The fallout from this can be interpretted by others, but this isn't a specific bill or "1984" attack on Bitcoin, it's adding digital currencies as part of a legal framework for two specific crimes.

edit: added "investigations" to the second paragraph to clarify that it presented a legal framework for such investigations.

Yes, that's also a way, but why not save the QR code first time you see it, instead of loosing it, resetting with recovery code, and then again getting a new one? Recovery codes are fine, and should be kept safe and such, but also the Original QR code can also be saved and screenshot. That way, phone lost? open database, load QR code, scan in new phone.

> The only difference is that your pension fund will not be "looted", it will have to cut its payouts because its investments don't yield the same returns as they did before. Inflation will do the rest.

Only if the economy goes down and inflation goes up. At the moment, inflation is low and the economy is growing.

My problem is not so much that I'm exposed to the whims of the economy, because that's unavoidable. My problem is when I need to pay extra so others don't have to feel the whims of the economy while I get to feel it double.

That's exactly what I'm talking about. When it's my money, that plundering becomes theft. When it's not actually my money until it's paid out, I have less control over it and rules may be changed so it can be plundered.

In the past I've heard plenty of stories about American companies looting retirement funds in ways that would absolutely be illegal in Netherland, so even if I'm part of a big fund, I'm probably better protected than an American. But even that protection might not be enough if I can be required to pay extra.
Further on this: I'll just have a little rant.

I'm writing a book on Bitcoin/blockchain https://davidgerard.co.uk/blockchain/ and have taken to researching Bitcoin/blockchain stories that make it to mainstream media - because this is what ordinary people hear about it - and tracing them to their sources, because far too much of what I'm trying to use as sources just doesn't check out.

In almost all cases they're complete BS started by Bitcoin/blockchain promoters. Every "Bitcoin adoption in xxx" story is rubbish. Most corporate blockchain adoption stories are rehashed press releases, usually from IBM.

Blockchain marketers consistently claim some prominent company "is using" a blockchain when there’s just been a press release that they are "investigating" running a future trial. This is because an "investigation" is cheap, and telling Beleaguered Bob in the office to look into this "blockchain" stuff is worth the PR value in showing you're fully up to date with current buzzwords. "Researching the opportunities" could mean anything, but pretty much always does mean nothing.

If you see a use case that catches your attention, a web search on the company names and the word "blockchain" will often track down the original press release. Check very carefully which details are clearly substantiated in the present tense, and which are (what's a good word) aspirational.

Journalists who bother actually picking up the phone and talking to people, e.g. Izabella Kaminska at FT, get a barrage of personal abuse from Bitcoin advocates, whose social skills really haven't gotten any better in the past several years.

The Bitcoin press is possibly even worse - it pretends to be news coverage, but it's actually advocacy blogs posting any boosterism that crosses their path, because what their readers want is reassurance that this is the future and their holding will go TO THE MOON. The best of them is probably CoinDesk, and even they've never seen an unreleased hype they didn't like and run an enthusiastic article on. The mainstream press keep assuming all this is specialist coverage that's done with journalistic intent (rather than advocacy from holders) and copy'n'pasting it.

Even when the Bitcoin blogs are trying to do real news, they're inexcusably sloppy, and you really do have to check every factual claim individually.

tl;dr Bitcoin journalism is bloody terrible.

I am quite surprised about this given space requirements. When I visited Equinix HKG1 it was on the 14th floor of a shared office building and space seemed very limited, most customers seemed to use it just as a network POP judging what you can see through rack doors. Rented floor, 4GS security guys, pen and paper sign in. Perhaps in other locations they own the building and have large spaces to accomodate large clouds.
Quite possible, maybe that kind of meta level requires more gray matter.. That said the sentiment of exasperation (which triggers our "listen I did this and no result occured") is probably accessible to many life forms, except it's probably expressed as "body language" .. or a more violent behavior.

Central Festival and Maya are both awesome. CentralPlaza by the airport is pretty nice. Promenada is also nice, but a bit quiet and far away from everything. I think KSK is the only one I would call old and falling apart, but it's not so bad. I think it has character. It's definitely the weirdest and hugest brick building I've ever seen. I like all the strange empty spaces and hallways, and the bowling alley tucked away in the corner.

I've actually been building a tool that does just this during the current YC Startup School program.

You can get on the launch list here: https://watchdog443.com

My main focus is ongoing alerting of changes to HTTPS configs rather than just a one off check. So you can be confident that everything is up to your spec or know as soon as something isn't.

Because we'll know your setup we can also alert you to things you specifically should be aware of - for instance a browser policy change that would affect user experience due to your certificates not meeting the browser policy etc.

Feel free to mail me if you'd like more info! (email in profile.)

(PS. YC Startup School's virtual demo day is tomorrow if you're interested! All the startups that completed the course are posting a short demo video.)

no. If you're the sole contributor and have copyright, you can relicense the code however you like. You can't travel back in time and relicense the prior versions so they're no longer open source, but you can certainly control how future versions are licensed.

Turns out that all of this stuff has apparently been deleted from the official docs some time ago, so that's probably why you didn't find it :) (see sibling comment).

There are some measures in place that go beyond just the "plain text" you see.

It prevents most bots from getting through, at least automated bots that seek out empty input boxes and add random stuff to them and attempt to hit a submit button. I had tried Google Recaptcha but there were just too many issues with it, for whatever reason, so I had created my own. I'm still experimenting with several different measures for improving the captcha. I've had two attacks since its creation 2 years ago. The spammer was able to create over 5,000 posts in just a few hours.

The first spammer actually emailed me and was pissed off. The entire email was in Russian but it translated into: "Why did you delete all of my posts I created?" Definitely correlated as it was just a few hours after I deleted them that I received that email.

The most recent attack was just a few weeks ago. I added some additional "captures" which seems to have prevented anything further. These pages were also in Russian and basically just linked to random forums all over the Internet. I don't think MyPost has any potential to give "rank" at all, but I'm pretty sure it's being done for backlinks. It may be that the "spammer" is a live person that goes through the source code and actually writes their own code to break through and create posts on MyPost.

The only thing I can keep doing for the time being is learning their methods and implementing new measures to prevent them from getting through, just as they continue to learn mine. There was a Show HN a few days ago that actually encrypted passwords on the client side, so I may look into that code and revise it to work as a captcha.
As I understand it, there have been a couple of compiler-blessed aliases for a long time (byte -> uint8 and rune -> int32), making this a similar thing but now at user level.

Actually I remembered now that the last time I worked with the MySQL protocol (~2014) I had a similar problem: Some of our servers were still running an old version of MySQL so the client had to be backwards compatible. However, this old version of MySQL also used the "old mysql password" authentication which was found to be unsafe/broken at some point. So the MySQL guys deleted the documentation on how the old scheme worked and replaced it with a notice saying that it is insecure. Tough luck if you still had to support/implement it. The same thing has apparently happened here. Not only is the documentation gone, it's actually gone without a trace on the official website.
Unions are organizations like any other. You can structure it on merit or on politics, and you can't blanket all unions as acting the same way. Most have awful charters meant to just enfranchise the established old guard at the expense of new blood, but they don't have to do it that way.

It is also a bit funny to demonize unions in a conversation about a company that uses its own largess to ruin the lives of former employees.
You don't have to guess. You could just refuse to collaborate with any of it until the level of evil is reduced.

> As a result, no online currency exchange will touch it, said Jake Williams, founder of Rendition Infosec, a cybersecurity firm. “This is like knowingly taking tainted bills from a bank robbery,” he said.

This is incorrect - crypto exchanges have had no problem cashing in bags of dyed notes before, e.g. the coins from the Bitfinex hack. They really just do not care.
Regarding "Their performances in ... International Math Olympiad": they were disqualified many times. I was at IMO in Istanbul in 1993 and they were disqualified, becuase they cheated (their official translator provided them solutions to the problems and it was discovered). So it may be possible that these "performances" don't indicate any such ability...
So the cost incurred will be passed on to everyone in higher fees.

eg people who never "roam" are going to be subsidising those people that do.

At a high and general level, yeah, it's all "unsafe". But, most conversations about unsafe don't talk about this aspect. So while what you say is true, I'm merely pointing out that this concurrency aspect doesn't seem to be mentioned much. And while it's implied at a high level, I think it's worth mentioning.

Basically, there's no issue - I just think this should be called out more when concurrency is discussed.
There is still a cost. And that cost is going to be passed on to everyone whether you use it or not.
All right. If you want to send anonymous proof (you can blank out your details) of the size of your accounts, you can email me at the email in my profile. I'll then post here saying I've verified your claim, if you want. Until then it seems like you are still primarily trying to promote your web site here and I don't have any reason to believe your claim about how much money you've made trading. Overall your claims seem false to me at the moment, since nobody else spends as much time promoting their approaches here on HN as you do. (Of course, you could just be enthusiastic.) You seem to have a very direct conflict of interest which you don't mention at all in your comments, unlike everyone else who posts on questions related to their projects or work.

That's good in theory, but in practice the con men will ask for what they gave back and might get violent if you refuse.

I'd give up on ten dollars if it means not having to fight/argue this way on the street.
Ignoring the argument on whether having everyone subsidising the few for some things is good or bad, does it even apply here?

Does "roaming" really cost anywhere near what they charge for it? Or does it only cost that because they could all charge each other that in hopes to make out with a little on top?

Ask HN: What are good ways to hide metadata from your ISP?
Even with HTTPS, my ISP can still:

A) see the domain names of sites to which I connect

B)the time at which a connection was made

C) the volume of data moving over a connection

So even if I use a VPN, my ISP can still see that I connected to https://vpn.com around the same time https://vpn.com connected to https://embarrasingNSFWsite.ru. They can also see that the data from https://embarassingNSFWsite.ru is pretty similar in size to the data I recieved from my vpn.

So, are there any tools or techniques that can eliminate these inferences, or at least reduce their accuracy?

Yeah, the telcos have already found a way out. They simply remove EU roaming from their standard subscriptions and it now becomes an add-on.

So if you want to use your phone in a different country during the holidays, you'll need an EU roaming subscription.

The politicians once again failed to be sufficient precise in formulating a law that would produce the decided result. They should have added a clause that state that all subscriptions are to cover the entire EU.
