That's an interesting way to math it.
Your calculation of the number of millionaires is high because some billionaires own hundreds of millions of dollars.

According to google there are approximately 46.8 million millionaires in the world. There will only be 21 million bitcoin.

Less than half of current millionaires could possibly own a whole one.

Plus, 4 million BTC (nearly 20% of total supply) are already thought to be lost forever.

There's definitely not a whole lot of them for something serving as the root of a worldwide movement / new financial system
fucking apparently, I don't even know why I bother sometimes.
This is sad.

Haynes manuals are fantastic. It's hard to beat having one at hand when working on a vehicle, much more convenient than a tablet.

I briefly used the online subscription to make some minor repairs on a vehicle I was selling so didn't buy a paper manual as selling the vehicle. The UX wasn't great and also subscription vs owning a paper book isn't great.

I highly recommend, to the point of pain, the late 70s series British TV series “Sandbaggers”[1]

“ Special Operations doesn't mean going in with all guns blazing. It means special planning, special care, fully briefed agents in possession of all possible alternatives. If you want James Bond, go to your library. But if you want a successful operation, sit at your desk and think, and then think again. Our battles aren't fought at the end of a parachute. They're won and lost in drab, dreary corridors in Westminster, and hopefully in Oslo.”

Is this for sharing a display with the desktop / laptop? Or just the keyboard/mouse?

For keyboard/mouse I use Barrier ( https://github.com/debauchee/barrier ) which works great for sharing keyboard/mouse between my laptop and desktop.
fwiw even if tesla increases their revenue by 50% cagr, for the next 5 years, they will still have a -lot- less revenue than the large ice car vendors.
"frothy fed money" doesn't explain anything because it doesn't seem to flow to companies that are other than Tesla.

And you're mis-representing what Musk says or thinks. He tweeted, once, "the stock price is too high". That's it. It could have been a joke. It certainly doesn't imply that he doesn't think the value is unwarranted.

As to "but Elon said..." blame game, here's Ford, in 2016, saying they'll have self driving cars in 2021: https://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/17/business/ford-promises-fl...

Tesla just released FSD beta, capable of doing fully intervention-less drives (sometimes).

What does Ford has today?
The quality of these engineering graduates is nothing more than a highschool dropout from America or Europe.

Company is adjusting its the price of labor based on more info it comes across.

I am not surprised and really if you work with them, you'll know they don't deserve more money.

Just because some college awarded them a degree doesn't mean they are entitled to high wage.

"What a cheap ad hominem" (me, just now)

Searching for their profile on their employers website, and you'll find not a single criminal case. As was to be expected, considering the vast majority of lawsuits are civil law matters.
According to whom? Anyone who understands battery density, costs, and scaling production certainly wouldn't agree with your "assessment".
This is a signal for larger movements in our society:

- OEM products and rebadging, have you ever sent your DeWalt drill back and hoping they'd repair it? They'll just send you a new one.

- Repairability is deprioritized or abandoned

- Throwaway-culture is expanding

- IoT gadgets are providing miniscule feature bait to fish customers into falling for it only to realize it was all a lie

- Increasing thrift through drop-shipping and other goodwill-less businesses don't want to be accountable for their shitty gadget made in Guangduong.

Never has been a better time to build a marketplace that puts the business and their ethics at the forefront, their legacy and goodwill at stake, hold them accountable in a fair competing arena, free of unregulated advertisement and independent reviews (such as iFixit score).

I personally want us to go back to early 1900's where businesses had pride in their history, they truly cared about quality and workmanship. Not saying there aren't businesses like that today, but ffs just look at what Amazon is filled with.
Maybe I'm being dense, but the article left me confused regarding how the "sunburst" backdoor made it into a piece of software signed by the vendor. Can anyone explain?
A vaccine scaled up to 1 billion doses 2 or 3 months later would by that logic cost 120k lives.

You are assuming that there are no costs associated with one choice vs the other, but we know that is not the case.

The vast majority of accidents are not linked to joyriding. It is alcohol, and to a lesser extent other drugs. Lethal accidents are the norm at 3am, not rush hour. And we have to be careful about causation statistics. A drunk will be speeding, but the accident is the result of the drunkenness rather than speed as there was no rational choice to speed. Nor was it reckless driving. Stop letting people get behind the wheel after drinking. Solve that problem. All the other sources of accidents are secondary at the moment.

And use seatbelts. I am constantly shocked by how many americans still refuse to do so. Seatbelt use in back seats was still not manditory when i lived in new england.

"Depending on which state a driver is in, not wearing a seat belt in the front seat is either a primary offense or a secondary offense, with the exception of New Hampshire, which does not have a law requiring people over age 18 to wear a seat belt. In the front seat, the driver and each passenger must wear a seat belt, one person per belt. In some states, such as New York, New Hampshire, and Michigan, belts in the rear seats are not mandatory for people over the age of 16."

Right, there is a keen difference between organized crime thriving or merely existing. That it would continue to exist misses the point.

Dat is essentially the old version of Hypercore Protocol (aka "Hyper"). We had to make a set of breaking changes and decided to rebrand. So- if you're looking for a base, use the hyper stuff.

The changes included a switch to a DHT for peer lookup and data-structure reworks that improved speed and scaling by quite a bit.

Neat, thanks for making this! Another tool I would like: find books that I am unlikely to read, but, if I did read them, likely to rate highly.
Afaik it seems to be permanent.
You're overlooking an important consideration. Tesla is well aware of the regulatory credits it will likely receive and recognize before each quarter begins -- and therefore can make decisions about where to make capital expenditures as a results of the additional revenue. If they weren't receiving the ZEV credits, they have stated that their expenses would be different. The media overlook this simple point regularly.
If we’re talking about dollars in a post-American-collapse world, only the little green pieces of paper and coins have any hope left. Your digital balance would be worthless.
The first thing I used to do when getting a new (used) auto would be to go buy a repair manual- for some reason I didn’t do that for my wife’s when we bought it.

I (this week) just bought a Hayne’s for my wife’s car as it’s finally getting to that age (5 years old) and I needed to put a new parking brake pedal in.

I couldn’t believe how little detail was in it. I’ve still got my Hayne’s and Chilton’s hanging around for cars I don’t own anymore (all US autos from 1988-2010) and this book is by far the thinnest.

On top of that, there was NO INFORMATION on the parking brake assembly at all. My buddy, a Ford mechanic, broke the bad news to me, the entire lower side of the dash had to come off. This wasn’t some niche model either, it’s an Explorer, which remained largely unchanged from 2011-2018. The documentation for the dash disassembly was basically three pictures, no exploded diagram of the half dozen trim pieces that all interlock, nothing.

Maybe they packed it in a while ago?
I do not like your organizational system (nested folders are a great way to collapse conceptual complexity
IMHO) but I thoroughly agree with the need for someone to dictate organizational systems for a group project - my time in the animation world taught me the value of everyone who touches a project having a little cheat sheet or two stuck on the wall near their desk that tells them how to name things so as to not cause conflicts when merging with others’ work, and to make it easy for other folks to find stuff!
>The burden of proof is on the claimant, not the defendant. I believe that's the point parent was addressing.

Absolutely. I was pointing out that in this specific case (whether or not devices connected to the internet can be secured), the converse is also true.
Bitcoins themselves are available in limited quantity, but new cryptocurrencies are created all the time.

Yes, but it's much easier to create a new cryptocurrency than it is to create a social convention that a new cryptocurrency has value.
FireEye describes:

> "Multiple trojanzied updates were digitally signed from March - May 2020 and posted to the SolarWinds updates website, including
hxxps://downloads.solarwinds[.]com/...

So does this mean that the attacker masqueraded as SolarWinds and somehow (brute force?) forged the signature? Or that the attacker had agents working at SolarWinds?

I submit that your password has roughly zero bits of entropy, if it is found in the Pwned Passwords list, or any other well-known list of passwords.
While true, this is also incredibly reductive. All of the preaching about making software more simple leads to nothing.

Software, at the current scale of things we want to build, is inherently and unavoidably complex.
Protip for people that spend a lot of time on Github: press the letter "t" when browsing a project to fuzzy find on filenames like fzf in Github.
It strongly implies that the vendor was thoroughly compromised, in order to insert backdoors into their software (possibly amongst other attacker actions).
Please add checking the entered password against the Pwned Passwords list. If found there, then the password has zero entropy.
Source? In August 2020, the Porsche Taycan was Porsche's #1 -selling vehicle in Europe... outselling their 911 and all their SUVs. It would seem, rather, that supply is the current constraint for well performing EVs.

It depends, are you looking for WiFi 6? If so, it's supposed to. If you're still on Dell's older Intel chip, and it keeps crashing every 15 minutes, causing you to restart your network, I've found that pinning linux-firmware to the version from August has given me the best results. Anything else maxes out around 20-40mbs and crashes constantly.
Hey, thanks for putting it out there. Without ideas, it would be a pretty boring world.
But isn't aren't drugs de-facto legal in Mexico anyway? The cartels are thought to control the police, judges and politicians enough that they do not fear the rule of law much. If drugs were legalized in Mexico, wouldn't the cartels do what cartels do anyway and prevent everyone else from producing?

Or do you mean make it legal at the destination - the US?
This is crazy, I used to run analytics in game apps and we have super clear categories for kids games. Age, within age age ranges, etc. Any decent PM should enable a default checkbox to limit chargers to 100 dollars and in order to enable more, call a number.
Look at it another way. Do you really think an industry reaping trillions of dollars is going to go away without a fight?
That’s not correct.

It's interesting to see that most comments look at Tesla based on their fundamentals, some kind of analysis of their currents financials vs. expected future financials. This is sound, if you are hoping to get 12% returns, but I think stock market today is more about expected returns measured in 100x multipliers.

Money is cheap, so it makes all the sense to buy risky assets. What has the best chance at growth, Tesla or BWM, Airbnb or Hilton ...and so on. Tesla could be overvalued by 100x, and be still undervalued because its expected growth is still much higher than that of your other alternatives.

At the end of the day, Tesla futuristic, exciting, and keeps innovating. Every one else is just playing catch up. What is more likely, old school car companies learn to innovate, or Tesla learns to produce cars with less defects and for less? They seem like equally likely, but one is a much harder problem than the other as it is rooted in the very origins and goals of the company.
Mexico City is absolutely swarming in federales, tourist areas seem pretty safe from major crime (though maybe not pickpockets).
I have been down voted _and_ flagged. See what I mean?

Like someone mentioned here, they buy into the larger propaganda, which could be the govt, society, a professional group, a cultural group etc.

>While an engineering graduate was promised Rs 21,000 per month, his/her salary had reduced to Rs 16,000 and, subsequently, to Rs 12,000 in the recent months. Non-engineering graduates monthly salary had reduced to Rs 8,000. The salary amount being credited to our accounts have been reducing and it was frustrating to see this,” an employee alleged.

They should just quit working for them and move elsewhere not impede those who are happy with the wage they are receiving.
100% there's lots of issues with the game, apple, game industry chasing micro transactions, $99 bundles for a bunch of gems that barely gets you 3 days of action. That sentence where a mom is now juggling mortgage payments vs a $16k credit card debt saddens me.

But please please, be on top of your finances.
Don't open your eyes?
I don't think they were involved with the content of Tehran at all, only they acquired the rights to distribute it worldwide later on. You can also tell because there's no Apple hardware shown.

However, in Servant, there's a continuity error where an Audi is shown without the emblem in one scene and then with it in another scene. This is especially surprising because Servant probably has the best Apple TV+ cinematography.

I think once CAN bus started becoming ubiquitous beyond OBD-II compliance the effort put into independent repair manuals fell off the cliff.

I have had Jeep vehicles over the years and have made friends on forums who share information: I’ve had almost everything apart on a 2008 vehicle. Mopar sells manuals online if you subscribe to TechConnect but you still really need wiTech to complete many of the procedures.

Automotive repair has been relinquished to tribal knowledge and it’s unfortunate. I think most of us advocate for right to repair but it has such a strong second order effect it doesn’t get the attention it deserves with the broader public.

My dealer is incompetent. One of the techs did burnouts in my car and posted it on youtube 12 years ago. Ever since then I have never used dealer service again. I even went as far as not taking advantage of my warranty once.

2,985,000 millionaires divided by 21 million bitcoins is 0.14 millionaires per bitcoin.

The number has to be less than 1 because 2,985,000 < 21 million. (It looks like you neglected the million when dividing. I'm also not sure how you got 137,000 instead of 142,000.)
They can. A white list will easily do that. Without net neutrality white lists would be more and more popular IMO

It sounds like this is how FireEye were compromised last week. Though I don’t see that referenced in their write up, the WSJ article seems to imply that’s the case, and that this has been weaponized against the federal government.

I agree. They have such a rigorously vetted store which is fully under their control, they should be held accountable for downright criminal business practices (gambling apps aimed at children, that is).

And honestly, that's just the tip of the iceberg with Apple. It is long overdue that we break that company up -- together with Amazon, Facebook, and Google.
I see a Democrat must have won the Presidential election, because people are dragging out their Ron Paul-type libertarianism again.
In particularly walkable cities you can see the extreme end of this in the way barriers are removed from between driving and walking parts of the road, and the driving parts are made narrower. Drivers take much greater caution and are forced to pay attention. Contrast to a wide asphalt road with sidewalks on the side, drivers feel separated from foot traffic and thus safe in their speeds and lose focus, even though they likely couldn't stop in time for a hazard even if they were paying attention.

Many American highways actually increase the length and size of the road markings in order to make speed feel slower than it actually is, which was likely a comfort thing at first but clearly it hides the present danger of speed.

>True. However, now that APT tools have been leaked to the world I think I can still argue that even layered defenses are no longer sufficient. I listened to security researchers say for years that there was no point in trying to address APT's because they were just impossible to stop.

Perhaps I'm a little dense, but I'm not sure what you're arguing here.

Are you asserting that since sophisticated threat actors exist, security processes and procedures are useless, and as such, shouldn't be adhered to or implemented?

Used to date a girl from Honduras (Tegucigalpa), and heard some real horror stories about the day-to-day crime. One day a gang knocked on her parents door (they owned an apartment) and pretty much gave them a 2-day notice to get out.

They packed their stuff, and left. Their senior neighbor did not - she ended up getting killed. Apparently gangs like that just seize apartments, and use them for criminal activities (prostitution, drugs, kidnappings, torture/executions, etc.).

Her parents eventually managed to get to the US, but her uncle died on the way - victim of some kidnapping scheme, where gangs/cartels snatch up immigrants on the way, and blackmail their families in the target countries.

Suffice to say, we never visited Honduras - but it's pretty surreal to know that this is the everyday stuff a lot of people go through, in Central America. One day everything is normal, the next day you're a refugee, just like that - and there's no justice in sight, because that would mean getting yourself or your family killed.
Mm... PageRank is the basis, but then recent publications suggest they use a multitude of factors (probably 7-10+?) to evaluate sites. PageRank is still more-or-less the biggest chunk, but since people learned how to game it, they've had to likewise step up their internal game on ranking. What you're requesting probably comes off as a trade secret, but you could probably get reasonable results using a PageRank inspired hybrid
You forgot to ask: if you are powerful organization that cuts politicans big checks or equally rich donor.

In these days politicians, being right or even being on people sides means nothing - its all about who has louder tube to scream stronger that the other candidate, thats all. Its been long since politicans represented or cared about little people calling with their problems. Heck, a friend of mine worked for very popular politican as his assistant and was told to just tell people you write their problems down but dont even bother anymore. I believe its the truth about the whole US politics system at this point. Its all about who donate more bc that the only way you can get elected and then stay in power.
While the cyclists might have very valid reasons for breaking the law, the fact is that at present, the law classifies them as "vehicles" and classifies them as subject to the same rules as the other vehicles (the cars).

Regularly watching cyclists flaunt the rules that the car driver would be cited for breaking, and never seeing a single cyclist cited for the law breaking, leaves a foul taste for cyclists in the mouths of many motorists. They don't get to run stops or red lights with impunity and without punishment.

So as long as the law says cyclists must obey the same rules car drivers are also supposed to obey, the subset of cyclists that break those rules on a regular basis do not help, in the least, the arguments to try to convince car drivers to be more respectful of cyclists.

The start should be the cyclists obeying the same rules as the cars (which would help with not pissing off numerous car drivers daily) while working the politician angle to change the rules for cyclists to something safer for cyclists (and at which point the car drivers will no longer have a way to rationalize their hatred of the cyclists as just "law breakers").
I wonder how someone manages to figure this out...
Most gambling regulation is about making sure the right people get their cut of the money flowing through the system.
