The ones that puzzle me even more are the intranet websites that log you off after x minutes whereas they work with single sign on, ie no password entered, so not sure what security benefit that achieves. But they make you lose whatever you were doing in the process.
That website was using a electrical rate of USD 12c per kWh, which is already on the low side. I think most electricity

The break-even point is 8c per kWh. But there will be other overheads, so you probably need 6c per kWh to actually make a profit.

Such prices most be possible to obtain in a few oil rich countries like Saudi Arabia and Iraq.
Profitability calculators typically rely on the current market rate of BTC. Even if they paid for electricity, they could make up for it by keeping their earnings in BTC/whatever. Whether that's a smart decision is another issue, but for some mining is like a startup in that you burn cash early in hopes of a big exit down the road.

Edit: Several people have pointed out that you can just buy BTC or crypto directly. Besides the initial hardware cost (which requires cash up front) how do you generate income to buy crypto on a regular basis?
If such a thing existed, I suspect it would be banned in very short order for serving spam.
Unfortunately the laws of thermodynamics will get in the way. Cannabis farming uses electricity to build organic chemicals and outputs waste heat at 40°C; bitcoin mining uses electricity to solve equations and outputs waste heat at 40°C. There's not really any way to use the waste products of one as an input to the other.

You can still trace the money by looking at the block explorer. All you did is thrown them in coinbase address. This is no different from coinjoin.
I did this for 6 years and eventually craved a home as well. I agree that it's incredibly freeing in some ways, but every time you buy something you have to consider what happens when you move and that isn't freeing at all.

I like to be able to buy items for projects that enrich me mentally or physically. E.g. I recently bought a 3D printer, I buy kitchen tools to cook more interesting recipes. If I moved abroad now, I'd likely do a big clear out but also ship a lot with me.
Not that I was around for it then, but the sense I get about things that are trying to be both Art and Engineering is that they fail to be spectacular in either category.
NAT is a hack that only ever existed due to IP address exhaustion, and I’ve yet to find a good reason why congestion control and QoS handling in a router needs anything beyond what is already in the IP headers. SCTP’s flexibility is irrelevant since nobody uses it, arguably because of how much the Internet has ossified around TCP and UDP.

Your "buddy" would have to be a large mining pool for this to work, and even then it would be noticeable on the blockchain that this happened.

Worst idea to launder ever.
In my experience, microservices are an emergent property of Conway's law [1], essentially that a system's architecture will tend to ship it's team(s)' communication structure. The biggest bottleneck to software engineering is communication between engineers, especially as teams grow beyond 3+ people working a single system. It becomes difficult to keep everyone on the same page about every design decision and change, which becomes obvious if your team does code reviews (imagine if every code change required 3+ approvals). Communication unfortunately scales O(n^2).

As a result, What makes a "team" is it's leadership structure, I.e it's determined by the number of engineers who want to be leaders (which includes accountability and ownership). If you have a team with multiple leader-types who want more ownership, and a natural seam in the solution space emerges to spin-off, they will tend to become the communication hubs for other engineers, and eventually spin out into their own subteam with their own microservice. They'll want their own abity to release when necessary, and choose dependencies without needing to convince everyone beyond their immediate subteam.

In short, if you're 1 person, microservices make little to no sense given the addition work and complexity involved. If you're more than 1 engineer, it depends on individual engineers willingness to be a lead and own a whole part of the system and become a communication hub. Companies like Google and Amazon will have lots of microservices because so many engineers want to be tech leads (either for promotion or self-fulfillment).

I gave it another try - `events.tail()` was useful to know what Talon was trying to do, but it is very busy. However, I came across https://talon.wiki/getting_started - not sure if this is an official Talon site, but I found it to be a really helpful resource, certainly moreso than https://talonvoice.com/docs. From here I found `command history`, which shows exactly what commands Talon is hearing - great!

I also found that the microphone makes a big difference - with my Plantronics Voyager Legend bluetooth headset, it was basically unusable, misunderstanding almost everything I said. But if I used a cheap Logitech USB headset that I've had for a decade, alphabet accuracy was good.

Something else is that it does seem to struggle a bit with my accent. For example, with the alphabet I would say "air", and 75% of the time it would hear `oh`/`near` - however, if I said "air" in an American accent, it heard `air` correctly every time.

Will be interesting to see how your new engine fairs when it's released.
Noticed this as well.

It's a minor inconvenience for someone who is organised or is used to store secretes securely but a complete nightmare (including a security nightmare) for your average Joe.

Thanks EU, thanks governments for your precious regulations that keep us safe.

I wonder how many similar stories there are in fields I'm not an expert of.
Here in the UK we have what's known as CPSPOC, or "Criminal Prosecution Service Proceeds of Crime" unit. Their job is to recover all proceeds from criminal activity. In this case I imagine they'll try to argue that the bitcoins mined with stolen electricity are proceeds of crime, and they'll confiscate them. The money recovered will go to the treasury after the electricity company has been compensated.
If you have cash, mining is unprofitable, and you want btc, there's a more profitable solution you're not seeing here.
The power still ends up as heat; LEDs just mean that less of it is wasted.
It may be partly an age thing. There's probably no way I'm going to be able to corral 2 or 3 buddies to help me for a Saturday move for some pizza and beer. Although I've done so when I was younger. When I moved to my current house from an apartment about 30 minutes away, I moved all the smaller items, and hiked someone to move the furniture.
If you have to pay $50k in electricity to mine a $40k bitcoin, it would be better to just turn off the mine and buy the bitcoin directly.
If you’re in the US, just put it on Craigslist. I have always been surprised about what people are willing to buy.

I had an incredibly damaged couch that I was ready to throw in the dumpster, and a young dude happily gave me $100 and picked it up with his truck, with no effort from my part.

I got rid of hundreds of items over the years on CL, and I don’t think I ever failed to sell any!
How about exonerating the lab before the facts were in, was that OK or not?
GPU mining is currently concentrated on ETH, which is changing (EIP 1559) mid-July (and then later this year). The GPU market will change (and already is) dramatically after that. Many are still in denial, hoping there will be "another coin" to mine. Or, they're just spreading false hope to give them time to dump their hardware.
I threw away all of my college notebooks as soon as I graduated. But I can definitely understand some of your feelings here, too. I dutifully held onto them for four years, thinking there may be a time when I’d want to look back on them. At the end though, realizing I’d never looked back on them once, I just threw them away.

I’m sorry you never got to make that choice either way though. I can’t imagine how hard that is.
If you show up at the correct bank with a $1million briefcase you will be taken to a closed office and they will serve you.
Thanks for your reply but it was more of a rhetorical question! :)
I think this really needs to be emphasized strongly.

I develop primarily on Safari, and only occasionally test on Chrome (for my hobby side project), and occasionally I run into instances where Chrome differs. To me, those look like Chrome bugs because Safari is my "default".

If you're using Chrome (or Firefox, which, in my recent experience, tries specifically to be compatible with Chrome because Chrome is the overwhelming default for people like IE was) primarily, and expecting Safari to exactly match its behavior, of course you'll run into various cases where Safari appears buggy. But to use that to claim that Safari is "the new IE6" is just ludicrous.

I don't know how old other people in this thread are—maybe those making the comparison to Safari weren't actually around for the IE era, or maybe it's just been so long you've forgotten how bad it really was—but I was actually doing some web development back when IE6 and even IE4 were common. They were an absolute nightmare. I don't recall the precise details at this late date, but there were fairly basic HTML tags they didn't implement, and others they implemented completely differently. Javascript features were all over the map.

That realusername has to dig up four fairly esoteric edge-case issues to show that Safari is "total nonsense", and then have HatchedLake point out that at least two of those aren't even current, is ample proof that it's the comparison of IE to Safari that's total nonsense.
Orange Man was in favor of it, so it was imperative to fight its use even if it is efficacious. Even if granny dies she can rest easy knowing Orange Man and his supporters were delivered a sick burn.
> I'm not sure what more you'd reasonably expect to find.

Literally any sort of activity that uses electrical ovens. I can think of dozens of processes for the manufacture of plastic, ceramic and metal items where you're gonna want to bake stuff.

Edit: Apparently it wasn't obvious I was disagree about the assertion that "Based on heat and people coming and going" is normal justification for raiding a pot grow op and not this specific case where a warehouse that is supposedly disconnected is using tons of power.

Also, it seems like a whole lot of people here don't understand that it is very common for facilities to be occupied by a tenant that's not the owner and who doesn't have any signage out front. If you're going in with a preconceived notion that you're looking for a grow op it's really easy to misread things done out of economic convenience as though they were intentional obfuscation.
The balance is between (a) effectively addressing an issue & (b) empowering government and risking it abuse its power.

Most long-lived democracies appear to have optimized to mitigate the risk of the second, over the long run, but at the cost of limiting the first.

One thinks the Roman Republic had a pretty good thing going politically... but declaring a temporary dictator in times of crisis only worked until it didn't.

Still, 475 years was a pretty good run.
imho better would be if the site just asks for the 2fa again after sending the form.

I am not being snide. I am being wary of politically motivated Westerners demanding massive societal and economic changes in the name of protecting “billions of low income people.” This is exact same reasoning that the British used to justify colonizing and exploiting some of those places.
Air doesn't have a strict definition right?
A password booklet works well at home, but it's obviously much less secure if you wanted to sign in to a service while in public on your phone for example. One of the major benefits of a password manager is that your passwords are present, encrypted, on all of the device you need them on. Most people don't only need passwords at home, so the odds of theft or loss of the password book are much higher than your example makes it out to be. If we're talking about an average user, the solution of only sign into services at home isn't really an option.
If you’re spending $1500 to mine $1000 in BTC and are bullish about the future of BTC, why not just buy $1500 of BTC?
Not if you have all that money tied up in an old mining rig which has close to zero resale value.
Huh? Who said there's no in-between? Or that other jobs aren't in demand, or valuable? I mean, you explicitly quoted text from me saying "there's lots of other jobs out there" - aka, other skills are in demand.

To be explicit, I love that there's so many engineers out there who are keen to do product work, or work as partner engineers or whatever. Thats really important stuff!

I personally prefer to spend my time with interesting data structures. And as luck would have it, lots of engineers really struggle with data structures and algorithms. So I do that work instead whenever I can. Why is my love for this stuff such a threat to you?

And sure, real roles usually don't have us doing one thing all day. Very wise. But, so what?

> See this person's comment about being a PhD compiler and algorithms student yet still struggling with LeetCode

PhD candidates are humans too, like the rest of us. We all struggle at some things. Algorithms are hard. Getting a PhD doesn't magically change that.

And what point are you trying to make in bringing this up? Do you think that nobody is good at, or enjoys leetcode style algorithm / data structure puzzles? I'm walking proof that thats wrong.
+1 I think this is the most comprehensive answer. Default to using monoliths whenever possible. More Simple = more robust, more complex = more fragile.
My bank (one of the largest in the US) supports 2FA with SMS, their app, or a physical hardware token (which you buy from them for $20).
Yeah, I suspect the people saying Safari is the new IE didn’t actually have to really support an old IE version 15 years ago. It’s really not comparable.

I agree Kerberos is somewhat under-used, but man isn't it half a pain to set up integrations with...

Part of the problem is that it's "enterprise" tech, which means all sorts of "enterprise" middleware claims to support it with some half-assed concoction that worked on the presales demo environment once, back in 2001, and nobody else has touched since. And it's also old and pretty obscure, with documentation lost to the fog of time, and very few people who remember how it was supposed to work - a bit like MS DCOM...

Also you'd be able to see which transaction paid the large fee and what the history is.

Might go unnoticed if the original coins weren't suspicious, but if an investigator is already looking at the original transaction because they suspect it was involved in crime, this type of jump is unlikely to throw them off the trail.
Wow after the first sentences I expected this website to be bad, but after checking their front page it is even worse than I thought.

For UDP, Linux supports GSO and GRO, allowing applications to send and receive "super"-packets which are split up and reassembled by the kernel or NIC, depending on what's available. Whether or not QUIC implementations utilize it, I'm not sure.

The downvotes are utterly ridiculous.

Unlike other parts of GCC, GNAT copyright is held by AdaCore due to some special arrangement with the FSF.

For the compiled CE releases on their website, AdaCore strips the runtime exception:

-- As a special exception under Section 7 of GPL version 3, you are granted --
-- additional permissions described in the GCC Runtime Library Exception, --
-- version 3.1, as published by the Free Software Foundation. --

So yes, binaries compiled with that particular compiler are de-facto under GPLv3, and you have to abide by its terms (eg. if a customer using these binaries requests the source code)

You are of course free to build the compiler yourself, or use the Ada compiler that comes with your distro.

The sources are available, you just don't get a tag that tells you which exact combination of files AdaCore used to build and verify their binaries.

This is a strategic PITA, and AdaCore have in recent years made some moves to improve the situation, with being active on github and responding to issues in general.
Well, on "normal" bank accounts you would be hit by international policies and cover-ups, while on public ledgers, the only barrier is the tech.

If that attribute existed, security audits would again force big enterprises to enable it to break auto fill on their password fields, taking us back to square one.

No, if you need 50k for electricity, it does not matter how much money you put into the mining rig, you're better off buying 40k bitcoin directly.
I'm wondering if in other languages it would happen too.

Is EIP 1559 expected to meaningfully affect mining profitability, especially for miners who already own the hardware?
It will probably be returned.
You can use cryptocurrency which hides all of your transactions (like zcash) and pay your taxes as a law abiding citizen. There is no conflict here. Tax systems rely on citizens reporting anyway.
The non FIFO nature of SQS queues by default was one of the hardest things for me to wrap my head around when I first encountered it.

Glad to see they are improving performance for an easier to understand mode.
If all your money is gone because you spent it on a mining rig, how will you pay the electricity bill
I'm happy whenever anyone brings up SCTP. Such a maligned protocol. Congestion control and QoS, however, are a loser's game. If you're running into realistic issues meeting demand due to statistical multiplexing breaking down to the point you must rely on caring about the internal state of traffic streams, you should have thrown more link hardware at the problem long ago.

The prevailing sentiment in Russia about permafrost is that they can’t wait for it to thaw because it’s probably covering a lot of valuable resources. Breaking up arctic ice makes Russian shipping more valuable and Russia more strategically located globally. It’s hilarious to me how naively Western views on this issue are. Go talk to some Russians, maybe.
Maybe they were still setting up?
> ETH, which is changing

I don't think this is the first time I've read of a substantial change being made to a cryptocurrency. Doesn't this kind of thing completely belie the usual claim that it's free from central control?

> Many are still in denial, hoping there will be "another coin" to mine.

Again I don't follow this stuff that closely, but this doesn't seem absurd on the face of it. Is there a reason to think this won't happen?
