The real trick is to learn to enjoy it, like with cooking and car repair and cleaning.

Also helps to be on top of things, poking around periodically to see things are working as they should. You find yourself with fewer catastrophic failures on a dark blustery night that way.
It depends which currency/ICO you're talking about. Trading $10M/day in bitcoin world is not a big deal.

You can look at the market depth on various exchanges:

http://bitcoinity.org/markets/bitstamp/USD

For instance, if you dump $10M worth of bitcoin on Bitstamp, the price will shift by only $270, and that's ignoring the hidden limit orders. And the market will react to it as well - cheaper coins create more demand.
Yeah, it works really well. That is what I use for my fish shell.
> Biometrics would be a terrible idea. Mass surveillance, anyone?

What if the biometrics were stored on something you have - say a smartcard (definitely not a phone!)? Along with a PIN. Plus, these two items went into a "write only" store on the card (actually, a hashed value of both are stored).

You have a card reader (one at home - and any place you are doing a transaction to confirm identity also has one). You put in your card. Type your PIN. Present your (physical) biometric.

The reader takes the data, passes it to the card (or maybe the card has the reader and pin pad?). The card runs the hashing again, and compares the values. If all is good, it outputs a "Yes" otherwise a "No".

Remember, only the card holds the data (a hashed version) of the biometric and the PIN. That can only be written (you can do this with your terminal at home?). The only output the card has is that "yes/no" value.

All transactions of such nature would be done with this card.

I'm probably missing some steps or such - but the idea is there. That gives a 3-factor authentication system.

Don't expect it to ever be implemented.
True but when you retire, you're not bound to a job and you can live in a cheaper place.

> The liquor is marked-up and expensive too.

That's just taxes. Anybody else selling alcohol would have to add their profit on top of that. It might seem expensive, but don't forget that you are helping to pay for government provided services.
That rule seems to depend on the precipitating action being a tort.
That's not the issue. They are required to immediately remove incorrect information from your credit report. A freeze prevents them from reporting your credit to third parties (i.e. it prevents them from doing business). So, they hate people who freeze their credit. Their strategy seems to be to make having a credit freeze so onerous that you won't do it so they can continue to sell your information to their customers.
I don't think you're even a consumer.

You are the product.

> 2. Criminal defense lawyers love the system as-is and will fight to protect it. More arrests mean more business. An absolute worst conflict of interest that you can imagine.

Criminal defense lawyers hate the system as-is. There isn't much money collecting $1,000 here and there convincing people to plead guilty. The criminal lawyers that make the real money are the ones that take big cases to trial. There would be a lot more of that work if the system weren't so stacked in favor of taking a plea deal.

> 3. Public defenders will do the minimum amount of work, and will always strong-arm you to take a plea deal.

Public defenders' offices are incredibly overworked; deal almost entirely with people who are, in fact, guilty; and work within a system where not taking a plea can have very negative consequences in terms of sentencing.

The root of both (2), (3), and (4) is the American public. In many European countries the maximum prison sentence effectively is 15 years, and many don't really have a plea bargaining system. It's not like those countries don't have lawyers who have the same incentives as American lawyers. That's not the difference. The difference is that the people over there are more moral and virtuous, and don't keep voting for politicians who push "tough on crime" and inhumanely-long sentences.
Nah, you're required to exchange one for $0.95 later.

Taking printing and other administrative costs into account, you definitely lose as the bank.
They are pegged against the dollar, meaning that the bank agrees to buy it back for what they paid for it. So basically, the issuer is taking out a zero interest loan from the users of the currency. Not a bad deal considering that the bank doesn't have to do any of the work involved in their typical source of zero-interest money (checking accounts).

There are already 3 main credit bureaus who have all of your data. It's not about the data it's about how unethical they are in preventing you from controlling the data.

Think about it: if every person in america put a freeze on their credit, all of these companies would go out of business because they would no longer have a product to sell. It gets even worse if you're a victim of identity theft because they cannot charge victims of identity theft to freeze or un-freeze a credit report.

Why is there not a criminal case against these idiots? When you are controlling something dangerous and you allow that thing to harm someone else, it's a criminal offense. It's not a matter of whether it's hard. It's simply your responsibility to ensure no one gets hurt.

This company has already caused harm to literally everyone in the US. Minimally, we all now have to take action to attempt to avoid identity theft. And it only gets worse from here.

> Being the sole seller also means that they can negotiate ruthlessly and drive prices down to maximize profit for the people of Ontario.

Being the sole seller also means they have a monopoly. It's much easier to run a monopoly profitably by charging high prices than by negotiating low prices. Even if they do negotiate low prices, what incentive is there to pass the savings on to the customer?
Greetings from Berkshire County! BerkShares don't actually exist, as far as I can tell.

The RFK quote gets thrown around a lot, in context it's much more clear: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41yJTxrPFhM

Bill Nye compares them to the guys at Enron. He does not suggest jailing them.
I'm pretty certain they can already do that though.
The unemployment figures are mostly a fiction. The true rate of joblessness has been concealed by the huge increase in SSDI claimants, discouraged workers, people in involuntary self-employment and underemployed workers in part-time or casual jobs. There's a vast disparity between the number of people who officially count as unemployed and the number of people who want a full-time job but can't get one.
Hi HN, my name is Zach, one of the founders of Roofr - https://roofr.com/ . We are a marketplace for roofing, providing instant roofing estimates using satellite imagery. We're part of the YC S17 batch.

After 15 years in the roofing industry our CEO knew how long and tedious replacing a roof could be. It is difficult to find trustworthy roofing companies who will provide both a fair price and quality workmanship.

In the traditional model, large roofing companies use subcontractors to do the work and add upwards of a 50% markup on top of the subcontractor rates. At Roofr, we connect homeowners, insurance companies, and property managers directly to roofers doing the work. We utilize satellite imagery to measure roofs and provide our clients with instant, free estimates. Our process saves them on average 20%.

Our platform simplifies the entire roof replacement process. Our clients are able to receive instant bids, communicate with installers, and save money. Our contractors build an online reputation, save time and close more jobs.
Presenting using only the IP address as a solution is intellectually dishonest. Additionally, I'm unsure of why you'd suggest there was a specific group of people and simultaneously assert that they are irrelevant to my comment.

Re: "This case is the one that proved to me..." I wonder if you are overgeneralizing here.

Sure, there are cases of corruption involving the government. Did you intend to say something broader? Proving systemic or structural corruption is another thing.

The question we should be asking, in my opinion, is not "Are all governments corrupt?" but rather "To what degree are particular people and particular institutions acting in corrupt ways."

Fighting corruption is hard. We win some and we lose some. Our goal should be to win more often.

i'm not against government regulations or government inspections, but it seems to me the government is mainly good at passing laws and regulations it cannot or will not enforce.

i don't see the government doing a good job of regulation enforcement.

sometimes it's corrupt (e.g. building inspection approvals in Los Angeles, where I live, have sometimes required side payments to the inspectors).

sometimes it's underfunded. one source estimates that only 2% of imported food is inspected: http://www.nbcnews.com/id/44701433/ns/health-food_safety/t/f...

Seriously, what you just listed is a reason not to use the government's Oauth for every website and ban all other implementations. What OP seemed to say, and what I disputed, is the idea that this service should not ever be used by any private website even as one of several options.

> 'Privacy reasons' is an American cultural anomaly

You can't say that immediately after citing Aadhaar as the "best example" of biometric national identification. There has been massive pushback against Aadhaar for privacy reasons specifically, which just resulted in the Supreme Court declaring privacy to be a fundamental right - something which, incidentally, goes far beyond the approach to privacy taken in the US and Europe.
Are those classifications listed somewhere? I suspect that they'd be much less accurate than the measurements from modern equipment (e.g. satellites)

> I wonder how we will tackle this problem.

Short answer: We won't.

Nothing is likely to drastically change. It'll just be another blip on this week's news, and on to the next big thing that comes up.

Some individuals, over time, will likely have their lives screwed with, but because not everyone at one time will have this happen to them, nobody will care.

Think about how long the EU and others had chip-and-pin for their cards. Also, everyone knew it was more secure. But it's only been in the past 6 months or so that the United States is finally getting it - and it isn't everywhere yet.

I'm not trying to say chip-and-pin would have helped this situation (it wouldn't have). I'm just trying to convey just what kind of social and political inertia is at hand here in the United States, not to mention the size of our collective apathy, and extremely short attention spans.

Had something like this had happened in the 1970s or 80s - heads would've rolled. 60 Minutes would have been all over it. Dan Rather would have frothed at the mouth. It would have been crazy to the extreme in the media and elsewhere. Change might have even occurred.

Today? We'll be lucky if we're still talking about this in any amount next Friday.
Shared libraries were invented at a time when disk space was very scarce. In my opinion, the fact that we still use dynamic linking today is largely an accident of history. Literally the only advantage over static linking (or distributing any shared libraries along with your application) is that you save some space, at the cost of requiring a complex package management system. Also, a sufficiently smart filesystem can deduplicate this transparently.

And of course, it makes distribution of any application that uses shared libraries a whole lot more difficult.

Disk space is the cheapest and most abundant computing resource in 2017. If you want to make these packages more widely available, just create wheels/whatever the R equivalent is. Good, well understood, and interoperable tooling for these already exists.
In just the UN's universal declarations of human rights:

Article 23, section 1 and 2, and possibly 3: as to being judged by employers based on a credit score.

Article 25, section 1: It is not possible to afford housing without a loan, and most of the variables of a loan (and even more importantly: whether you are able to secure a loan in the first place) are entirely determined by a credit score. Note that ~75-90% of Americans are unable to purchase a home without a loan: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wealth_in_the_United_States#St...

More from Article 25, section 1: Many of the other rights given in this document (like food, clothing, medical care) are also not achievable without smaller loans (like credit cards, also unattainable without a decent credit rating or a significant amount of accrued wealth).

I'm sure there's plenty more, this is just what I've seen at first glance. But I want to thank you for making me aware of this amazing UN document. It's kind of amazing the number of economic rights this document secures for all humans.
Thank you very much! Awesome explanation.

> The same way I can, say, connect to my spotify via my Google+ account, but that doesn't mean that google has all of my spotify playlists.

Yes they do. Spotify is asking Google, "Hey, does this web browser have the ability to log in to Spotify as this fellow?" Google can say yes whenever they want, and Spotify is completely trusting the answer.

Google is supposed to only say yes when it's your browser, and not when it's a Google employee's browser, but you have absolutely no way of knowing that.
