I should base my art on the photos without copying. If it's just for me to look at and not copy, why the CD? I can look at the printed picture to base my art on that.

That's because of the history of coal mining/factory jobs in KY. When The coal jobs dried up and the factories closed a fair portion of the people who were previously employed dropped out of the labor force and never went back.

Something I'm having trouble with is gauging how busy someone else is.

In the office, it's common to have several people try to talk to me at the same time - CTO, product, QA, API dev, other colleague who can't find the button, colleague remote in India. And they can clearly see if there's a line and work on something else first.

Remotely, it ends up juggling 4 text conversations at the same time. Or doing calls, which nobody likes, and nobody else can see that you're 2 hours into a call with other people.
The reason why this story doesn't make sense is because it's most likely a lie.

Think about it for a second.

If they wanted to discourage copycat criminals, the easiest way to do it would be to claim they seized the crypto, right?

But what proof do we have that the feds actually seized anything? Is the bitcoin transaction publicly listed anywhere where we can audit what happened? And even if you see the coins were moved, how do we know it was actually the feds that moved them and not the actual criminals?

I would assume something similar with Duo. It'll probably change look and get merged into Meet, but it'll probably still be more or less the same app.

> I'm not insinuating I've found racism.

Hey great, I don't really believe you though. Especially not with all the association with poor being a race thing. Some groups are tired of the racist conversation already. Some people have moved onto calling it other things so the conversation still happens. If you're not one of them, great! It's very unlikely you will convince me however, given that you'd be a bit of an outlier speaking quite literally.

> If you believe people making issues about race that aren't really about race is part of the cause of a rise in racism, a bit of introspection on your own approach's contribution to that problem might be warranted.

Please tell me on what I need to introspect on?

> This doesn't mean I'm calling you racist...

Oh I'm quite comfortable with my lack of racism, so nothing you can say would carry any weight. Sorry I felt compelled to spell that out.

What harm am I causing exactly?

Thanks for the support! I appreciate the difference of opinion here, but for me the "diversity shtick" isn't a shtick. It's a core reason of why I'm doing this project. Our field has big problem: Nearly everyone on the planet uses computers, but relatively speaking almost no one is "computing literate". The opportunity cost of this is just enormous, and I think it's not going to change unless we acknowledge the problem and set a goal to change it. I agree it would certainly be more palatable to just talk about "universal computing literacy" without mentioning the present skewed demographics of our field. But my goal is not to go through life being palatable, I want to actually make a dent in meaningful problems. And in my view, it would be pretty silly to try to solve what's effectively a massive user-experience problem without saying "Our current userbase is X, our desired userbase is Y, how do we get from X to Y?"

If you or anyone else is off-put by that or disagrees with it, that's completely your right, and I respect it.

It would take 10 seconds to put in similar size font - not to be used for commercial use of any sort (which is most use these days).
Hackers make transactions on clearnet revealing their IP address -> FBI seizes the server.
Completely agree.

It is odd to me how rare this is. I source nearly all of my candidates myself, reaching out to people I’ve worked with previously who would be a good fit, or those with specific expertise called out in their profiles, focusing on those marked as “open to work”.

Even with that the response rate is lower than I would like, but I do have a fairly good success rate when people reply and we start a conversation.

I think a lot of hiring managers are just as burned out as candidates. Lot of no-shows for interviews, people accepting exploding offers from other places, tired of dealing with HR policies, etc.

My whole house generator runs on natural gas. Indiana natural supply gas is stable and afaik never stopped in the last 20 years. It automatically fires up 6 seconds after power goes out and runs my entire house including EV charger. It’s fairly quiet, cannot hear with windows closed.

Cost like 5k and 2K install. Really hard to beat that in the near term with battery.

No it doesn’t do the demand shift part of a battery, but it’s pretty clearly better as an emergency solution, at least for my needs.
nice of them to help out the corportocracy.

perhaps we could also go after pay day loans locking up peoples finances with absurdly dicy loan terms...
At the presentation at least, they said it would still be E2E encrypted even on the web. Duo is also E2E encrypted and supports web.
He doesn’t get to decide that.
> Which is why its not common, but with battery prices coming down and dirt cheap second hand batteries on the horizon, this is going to become a big industry.

Maybe briefly, especially where retail customers with some installed renewable generating capacity can leverage the latter to take advantage of net metering laws designed to bring renewable capacity to the grid, because otherwise their stuck buying at retail and, if allowed to sell back at all, selling at wholesale.

Bur cheaper batteries mean proper utility players (e.g., a joint operation of PG&E and Tesla) are building large, purpose-built storage facilities, often colocated with generation facilities, with lower marginal costs for real estate and interconnection than separate facilities and better access to financing than small operators.

Storage is going to be a big industry going forward, but the period where home storage (or storage by anyone but major utility players) is a viable financial hack rather than just a backup plan for grid failure will probably be brief unless artificially subsidized to encourage distributed storage.

They only seized 69.6 as that's what was transferred to an exchange. It's interesting they split the resulting funds into two addresses. One to presumably return to who paid the ransom and the rest which would be held until whoever is indicted can prove they are not proceeds of crime (lol good luck).
No, what is happening is that the President is sending a proposal to Congress to make Bitcoin legal tender.
The first part isn't really helpful to me though- if the APR is 3% I'll just factor that into the price up front and then any "deal" they give me will be (theoretically) the same as or worse than paying up front. Unless I take the loan deal and then immediately pay it off, I guess

The second part might make sense if they're "betting" on getting late fees from me while I know there won't be any
Oh sure, that’s why I didn’t include it. But we have historically seen issues with those repos haven’t we?

My comment stands, why target f-droid?
> Transmitting ransom money to an exchange without any type of tumbler or atomic swapping, that it's not a realistic scenario.

Maybe not nowadays, but some time ago, after the possibility of tracing transactions was already well known, criminals were still a) first sending all the ransoms they collected directly from the initial ransom address to one address, linking them b) then sending them to their exchange account. No tumbling or obfuscation whatsoever.

In my case the screen didn't work at all. I couldn't backup the device, log out of any accounts, etc. I still wouldn't have given them the passcode if I could have done that, but if my only option were to backup and wipe the device before the repair, I would have reluctantly done that. In this case I had no way to secure the device at all, and I couldn't wipe it remotely because the only critical thing on it was my TOTP app (which I've since replaced with one I can sync/backup).
See point 31. At some point, 11btc went to one place and 64 went to another. I guess the 11 is still outstanding from the FBI.
Yeah, the "new" usage of the term, where it describes the location of page generation, doesn't seem all that helpful. If you generate a file that's mostly html (with maybe a bit of JS mixed in), you have something that serves and renders fast even on lesser machines. That has always been the important distinction to me.

Edit: Just to be clear, I'm not saying web pages should be mostly statically generated html with a bit of JS. The point is that someone developing a web app shouldn't normally be concerned about whether or not it's static.

It's neocolonialism when the interest of American companies are backed by the full force of the American government at the expense of the desires of the local people.

The scale is sliding though. On one side, you have countries which have had military force used against them for denying American companies favorable access to resources (Iraq, the Banana Republics of South America). On the other side, are countries who play ball be accepting American intellectual properties laws, don't interfere with American business interests, and make enough investments in America.

The people in those countries might not want to accept IP laws designed specifically to protect Mickey Mouse, but the alternative is economic arm twisting which is too much for most countries to handle. China is one of the few countries with enough power to stand up to the USA in this respect.

For me what catapulted the iPhone over its competitors (Palm, BB and WinCE phones) was it was phone + music player + GPS and you had an app store in a sleek package (no stubby antenna or big bezels)

From this I think the issue is vertical integration to produce a seamless product. In this sense, at the time, maybe Microsoft had some ideas but abandoned them before they were ready (Courier).
Sure, if you consider Haskell's runtime (I know that technically GHC /= Haskell, but in practice it's the only Haskell that matters, except maybe something like Asterius) all the primitives are backed by C libraries: https://hackage.haskell.org/package/ghc-prim-0.4.0.0/docs/GH...

Likewise with conventions around pointers, arrays, etc. to the point where if you want to do anything really low-level or performance sensitive in Haskell, you're essentially punching a hole into C. As a random example, within the fast base64bytestring library, you find lots of use of `malloc`, `ForeignPtr` etc.: https://github.com/haskell/base64-bytestring/blob/master/Dat... And of course because this is C there aren't really many safety guarantees here.

The plan with Yatima with its primitives, and eventually when we write an FFI is to integrate with Rust in the same way that Haskell uses C. My hope is that with Yatima's affine types we might even be able to FFI to and from safe Rust (since the borrow checker uses affine types), but this is a little bit of a research project to see how much that works. Even to unsafe Rust though, we have better safety guarantees than C, since unsafe Rust's UB is still more restricted than C's is.
