I run a company based in the UK, but I myself am American and most of my business experience is in the US. Despite that, I honestly have had no issues adapting to the GDPR. Considering that the business I operate has systems specifically designed to store as much data on people as possible, I find it absurd other businesses are unable to handle user/client data responsibly.

That said, I cared about privacy BEFORE GDPR and intended to act responsibly regardless of regulation.

I dont think he is whining about repaying the loan nor is he being financially stupid. Rather he is gaming a system created by our society choices. He is in a government repaent program where our society has said people should only be expected to pay 10% of their discrtionary income towards loans and for a fixed amount of time, 25yrs in this case. So while a financially responsible decision would be to be frugal and repay the loan, our society through our government have decided he only needs to pay 1600/mo for 25 yrs with a salary of 225k or 13k/mo after taxes. The article states he would pay 1.6 million over the 25yrs but my calculations show 19k per year and a total 480k after 25yrs assuming his income is stable. So why would he pay anymore than required, on his current government sponsored plan he doesnt even have to pay back the principle on his loan.
Don't bother trying to explain anything to dittoheads. You think he doesn't understand that homeless people migrate?

Yeah, I myself use a few conventions for dates. I'll probably document and automate those soon.

I'd love for it to go more mainstream with a high performance open source implementation. Dyalog is pretty good, and I like J, but feel the missing symbol leaves something out. K/Q with kdb+ is too expensive, and the other open source array language implementations (Qnial, Klong, Kona, GNUAPL)are just not there.

This math is based on having 100% of the existing hash power (the network is 500H/s, you would need 500H/s) - in most cases you would probably purchase enough to give yourself a decent buffer above the existing hashing power. The numbers are meant as very rough estimates to give people a better idea of the costs.

No, #43. I see him as the fist “bro” president, too quick to war, but ultimately a globalist.

Personally, I really couldn't agree more with what you're saying. The prospect of doing manual labor for a living just sounds awful. Getting dirty and smelly, blowing out my knees and ruining my back, having my brain stuck in idle for 8 hours all day every day, massively increasing my probability of suffering a crippling or fatal work-related accident. And an office job has the possibility of leading to a work-from-home situation, which would allow you to get whatever level of exercise of whatever type you want every single day of the week.
Progress (even for the sake of progress) is good if (huge if) you're working with the correct definition of progress. I want more progress towards perfection in the manner of the familiar quote: "Perfection is achieved not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away."

The cost and market cap estimates are probably both not good measures of how things would work out in practice on that scale, but even so- it looks like someone with a couple million dollars to invest could plausibly extract several billion from BTC via a 51% attack. It would cost substantially more than the estimate on here (since even non-NiceHash cloud GPU services probably wouldn't fully cover the required hashpower), and require substantial technical expertise, and decently-connected people would probably see it coming at least days in advance due to the movements of GPUs and GPU-power involved, and be pretty definitely illegal, and BTC's market value would be crumbling underneath you as you tried to sell out... but, the sheer profitability of such a scheme should seriously worry people with a stake (finanical or emotional) in BTC. A dollar bill sitting on the sidewalk doesn't stay there long.

> If account a double spends x, they track where the coin goes, let’s say b accepts y:=x-? coin then a still has x-y spoiled coins and b now has y spoiled coins. Now you just don’t accept transactions from accounts that have spoiled coins.

That would be a perfect way to lock another user's account out of exchanges. Care to give me your address? I'd like to send you some spoiled bitcoins I have lying around... ;)

As for the government, you can be sure they are already tracking all of the transactions. Bitcoin is far from anonymous - cash is a better alternative if you need anonimity, and even that can be traced easily nowadays.
This all boils down to your attitude toward your job. In my generation most first jobs were in the service industry. Later we all migrated to jobs suited to our talents.

I am an introvert - and interacting with strangers is painful for an introvert. I got over it. Working with strangers helped me overcome my shyness and later gave me tools to empathize with customers. When I ultimately became a software engineer, this empathy helped. When I was a manager I noticed that the best engineers initially worked with customers in some capacity.

In some zones, whole-house ventilation fans (which are installed in the ceiling below the attic) are excellent and efficient ways to cool and/or ventilate a house quickly—by exhausting the air in the living area of the house up and out through the passive vents in the attic. Open some windows, turn on the whole-house fan, and the air in the house is fully exchanged with fresh air from outside very quickly.

It helps to reduce stale odors, bring in fresh air, reduce indoor allergens...also handy when you accidentally burn something in the oven. :)

So what is this, Bootstrap-remake? Sorry to sound so snarky but I myself have found it a lot easier to just make your own components and not depend on some random 3rd party library. Makes it a lot easier to customize and you might learn a thing or two. Sure it's not so easy to create them but once you learn how it pays off.

Okay now that I browsed through a little bit of the API it's all right, you don't have to invent everything by yourself if you use this. But I'm still adamant that you'd be better off to maybe rather copy the components to your source than use it as a dependency. Also there's no TypeScript support? After a lot of reluctance I've recently come to appreciate how nice TS makes your life when you avoid most of the silly bugs. Yes, sounds funny for most of people who haven't used dynamic languages but well... live and learn I guess.
I'm neither American, nor shocked at the idea that America has poverty. I am, however, a bit of a stickler actual information. Pointing to general issues does absolutely nothing to help source this claim.

The claim was that ~65M people were in "who live in the most abject poverty seen in the developed world."

The actual figure for a poverty measure is 43M. However, that's not what the claim was - it's not simply that people are in poverty but those that are are in "the most abject poverty seen in the developed world".

Either we can find actual information and have a real discussion, or we can throw around vague unsourced claims and get nowhere.
Firefox Reader Mode has some heuristic where it will not be available on certain pages. One way to improve readability in Firefox for all websites by default is to use the Language and Appearance section in Preferences to display all web pages using your chosen fonts and colors: Click on Advanced, select the fonts and font sizes you want, and unclick "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of your selections above." Then click on "Colors," select the colors you want, and under "Override the colors specified by the page with your selections above" choose "Always."

What I do with this is to set everything to inverse video (white-on-black) and small monospace fonts. Basically makes Firefox look like w3m.

Mostly because they'd add a feature on a non-free platform (macOS) that is otherwise missing from a free platform. Notably, color emoji have worked fine forever on macOS, and were then _intentionally broken_ (when I say broken I mean the UI blocked for about ten seconds and then finally either displays a placeholder or something similarly less featureful). The reason for this is because Linux font rendering can't get color emoji right.
It's not about blaming the 9.9%. It's about convincing the 9.9% that they are part of the problem. The way the author writes, he is in that group, speaking to them. "We."

Compare to slavery. Obviously Southern slaveowners bear responsibility. But were non-slaveowners, Northerners, etc free of the taint? No. Ulysses S. Grant married into a slaveowning family and for years was supported by them. Northern factory owners turned profits off the products of slavery. Regular northerners purchased products produced by the system of slavery. Sure, some are more responsible than others, but the whole country from North to South bore the taint of slavery. Individuals giving up slaves didn't end slavery. Raising awareness of slavery's evil to the point where it hit critical mass, and then using power to force slaveholders to cease, that's how it ended.

This article is a member of the 9.9% speaking to others of the 9.9%, telling them they cannot absolve themselves; that they cannot expect to escape without consequence if the world turns again, as it has in the past.

In my mind the only question left to be addressed is how the power will be wielded. Will it be a politicolegal revolution or a violent one?

Maybe it's just that I don't remember. Or maybe it's that I was in an advanced math class.
I go into more detail in this [0] comment, but it would be substantially more expensive to pull off an attack if the hashing power was not available to rent from NiceHash. The 'nicehash-able' column is meant to represent how much hashing power is available - if it is > ~300%, an attack would be fairly do-able from just renting hash power.

I'm not categorically against deprecation warnings. Isn't gunicorn a command line tool? I can respect such warnings in a tool or even sometimes a library, but not in a language interpreter. The user should as closely as possible be in full control of the streams in those cases, and any standard error output that isn't an exception (i.e. either deliberate or resulting from a programmer error) should stay the hell off.

The proper way to handle this is of course to introduce a new semver major version. No need for deprecation warnings because incompatibility is expected.
If a randomized controlled trial includes just two groups, one which gets a treatment and another which gets placebo, it cannot attribute any results to the placebo, because it's missing a control for the placebo, i.e. a group which gets no intervention at all. Many studies have made this error, but that doesn't mean there's never a placebo effect.

It would be helpful to expand on how many blocks can be reversed given only one hour of hash rate.

Many wallets, exchanges, etc require a minimum number of confirmations before allowing you to spend the coins to handle reorgs that happen naturally.

For example, in Bitcoin this is often around 6. With 1hr of hash rate you might be able to get 7 blocks but likely you’ll actually need more time to get enough blocks or successfully attack. Accounting for this would increase the cost substantially.

Either way, pretty neat site!

I thought my comment might be a bit divisive :-)

I bet almost everyone can find at least half an hour for their health if they wanted to. Very few people actually have a "I don't have time!" excuse. These people better be spending every single minute of their existence at work, doing something essential with their family, or sleeping then. Even then, could they seriously not function with half an hour less sleep? Can they not do something physical with their kids like sport or even just a walk? Maybe you and some others actually don't have time, but most do. Even Obama found time for hourly golf and reading pretty much every day. I really dislike the victimhood/making excuses mentality. I don't think it's a good thing for most people. But yes, I understand that for a very small portion of people, they really don't have time.

Also, walking your dogs could be a form of exercise.
This type of data typically had low individual and high collective value.
The attack cost is calculated for a 1hr duration, but for many of these coins you don't even need 1hr. For example, w/ Bitcoin having a block time of ~10 minutes you could wager that you'd only need ~40 minutes to get 3 confirmations and double spend against an exchange.

Similarly, Ethereum confirmations are ~15 seconds. This means you could get 3 confirmations in a minute, and do an awful lot of double spending with only 5 minutes of controlling the network. That would only cost you $33,000. Heck, theoretically you should be able to double spend within 3 blocks which would mean 45 seconds of controlling the network, which would only cost you $4950 ((45/60)/60*396000)).

I don't know if I really believe these prices. I feel like there must be hidden costs that you are not accounting for. The crypto space has always held a close link to blackhats looking to make a quick buck, and the fact that these methods have never been utilized before can't just be because they're too complex or too costly to setup.
Selling your personal data as an individual is not going to work (yes, I understand this is a joke posting).

If your data has to be re-imported into the various systems that normally exchange consumer profiles (advertising platforms for instance) it will be a net loss, besides that the chances of you hitting one of the properties is nil. So without the association between your profile and your online presence that data has little value on its own and as a single profile.

But in bulk, with a correct association between your profile, your recent online queries, expenditures, location and so on it becomes valuable.

The question is could you identify any usable DNA from this waste? And I would expect the answer to be no looking at the bottles. It's a slurry mix of everyone's waste (human or otherwise, lots of stuff gets washed down the drain), so tracing a positive hit on drugs back to the house or person it came from seems like it would be exceedingly difficult to do.

The best you could do is narrow it down to any homes upstream of sample collection, which could be a single neighborhood or an entire city. Or it could be a drifter peeing straight into the sewer grate who doesn't even live in the city.
