Most of the purchases are gift cards ( a method for money laundering)

That kinda sums up how useful it is to add crypto to your e-commerce.

There are less than 10 x amount of purchases through crypto than amount of different crypto.
Signal hides metadata better however it's based in the US, you are required to use your phone number as an identifier and Moxie refuses to allow Signal to be decentralised. Security-wise they both use the double-ratchet algorithm to encrypt messages.
I don't see it listed in the notes, but using the --sort-files flag no longer seems to have a performance penalty.
Correct. There's basically nothing in either the mechanics of open source nor the dominant open-source philosophies that says "We need to be able to throttle use of the software to provide good user experience."

A direct consequence of open source is that the good user experience burden falls to the consumer, not the producer. If someone wants control over the user experience, they want a closed-source model.

Perhaps my original wording should have been "delivering value" rather than "creating value." Of course it's true that some things that companies do are at best shifting value around and at worst extracting or even stealing value from elsewhere. But my point was that people who buy public stock from a company almost certainly expect that company to somehow be more valuable in the future.

Pretty sure The Outdoor Gear Review did a real world test of something very similar. They 'work' in that they do heat up, but they're a lot of work and get extremely sweaty when made from those non-breathable plastic survival sheets.

This is one of the reasons I love the emergence of the "Gravel" category of bikes. They look and have geometry similar to a road bike, but they have enough clearance for nice fat gravel tires.

I ride in Chicago (shitty roads, potholes & construction are everywhere), and love that I can put nice 38mm+ GravelKing Slick tires on the bike, and still have no problem keeping up with most road bikes. I've gotten funny looks from folks who're unfamiliar with the concept, but it's such a great setup.

Comfy/soft ride too.

> Particularly at FANG/startups that have exited, they can "FIRE" after less than 10 years of working. I know many people in this category.

Less than 10? I would need to know more details on this before believing it at face value. Say a FANG person makes 300k/year on average over 8 years.

That's 2.4 million pre-tax, something like 1.4M post-tax, and not enough for FIRE for most people.

Maybe if someone was early in a startup that had a massive exit, sure. But that definitely doesn't describe the typical FIRE person/FAANG worker/etc.
I often have a sinking feeling the free software world is going to fall apart because upstream developers don't know what the distro is even for (curation, consistency, etc.), and legacy distro downstream developers haven't kept up with any of the development rends in recent years (good or bad).

The Nix community is one of the few that has feet in both camps, so it's all the more frustrating to see a stupid reaction like this; a traditionally distro wouldn't even bother packaging any of this stuff or engage at all.
I love Rust, but I love and recommend ripgrep because of its usefulness, reliability and robustness, not because of the language it's written in.

I haven't looked into all the tools in that list, but I would not for example recommend exa over ls as it is simply not reliable enough: if a filename ends in a space, you won't see that in exa, and that bug has been reported for years. To me that is a clear blocker, and if it is still there, I simply cannot trust the file listing from exa, no matter how pretty it may look.
Yes, the same applies to the current existing functionality of iPhone and Android to remotely wipe your device. How is this different?
yeah man, stop talking about all of the non-christians like you know them all.

My family does, and we are all mixed. Also the xmass tree, was called New Years's Eve tree, and it went up every year, right before xmass.

This was even in communist Albania, where religions were forbidden. The only thing we changed, was to open presents in 1st of jan, instead on the 25th.

The whole xmass tree thing tradition, is an old pagan one, and existed way before jessus or whoever was born. It is a indo-european thing.
I suffered with this myth for decades. Now, it didn't affect me too much because the narrower tires that I got, also took a lot higher pressure, and I usually inflated them to the max. And as a result of only caring about skinny tires, I neglected tire clearance on my frames.

Then a few years ago I got a bike that could take wider tires, and was good enough quality to really try out for real. Today I'm one more anecdotal data point in support of wider tires. Now, I don't necessarily opt for the lowest possible rolling resistance. Instead, lowering the pressure allows me to ride in greater comfort but without the tires feeling slow.

And of course other things affect rolling resistance too, such as (from what I've read) the suppleness of the sidewalls and other aspects of tire construction. And I'm not prepared to spend $$$$ to find the holy grail of tires.
Absolutely - the reason to confront systems problems is precisely because reductive approaches don't work; the alternative is to do nothing, or be surprised by unintended consequences when you try to apply a reductive approach.
What happens if the tent catches fire? Does it burn?

Do you have a source? Anecdotally I've found clipless to make my power transfer more efficient. Some quick googling shows this seems to be true:

"Mean power output was higher using clipless pedals ( = 617 watts, SD = 112) than toe-strap ( = 572 watts, SD = 77), and flat ( = 566 watts, SD = 83)." [1]

They allow you to put multiple instructions on the same line - in this case you must either have ';'s or '\n's in the string - having both doesn't break stuff, I guess it's more belt and braces
From TFA: “ We tested our tires on smooth pavement at 29.5 km/h (18.3 mph), and found no speed difference between narrow and wide tires.”

A professional peloton rides at 28-30mph on the flat and significantly faster towards the end of a flat stage - I bet at higher speeds, for professionals where every percent matters, it does make a difference.

Certainly for my level (and I have ridden for an hour at 18mph average) it doesn’t.
My first impulse, given the loads of data to the contrary, was to just hit that down arrow and move on. But that's not fair, so I'll instead throw out: "got a citation for that?"
I do 5/3/1 and it does have it's tradeoffs but I've seen gains while on it. Basically the goal is to make you stronger, it was developed by a powerlifter and is heavily influenced by traditional american football training. I've linked a PDF below[1] which explains the whole thing in language anyone can understand.

Core lifts: Bench press, Squat, Deadlift, Overhead Press. Some people choose a different set of lifts.

The 531 thing means week one you do 3 sets of 5 on the core lift, week two you do 3 sets of 3, week three you do a set of 5, a set of 3, and a set of 1. Week four is deload, you do lighter weight for three sets of five. In all cases (except deload) the last set is actually for "AMRAP" i.e. as many reps as possible.

Ultimately weightlifting is not a modern science, it is an ancient practice akin to meditation or running or martial arts. There is ongoing research to optimize it but nobody here is going to the league and for us the most important thing is to show up consistently and track progress. The most impactful thing I ever did for my lifting was to create a spreadsheet I could update from my phone and write down how much I lifted and how many reps every time I went to the gym. I do something like this:

|Bench
-----------------------------
1/22/2021 |135, 135, 145
|5, 5, 5

I'm proud to say I reached the end of my google sheet and had to start a new one. I am fortunate I was exposed to weightlifting early in life but after neglecting my training for most of my twenties (I'm 32 now), most of my current gains happened with 531. I hope you will start lifting! The benefits weight training has brought to my life can hardly be overstated.

One of our local sport club (in Hamburg) streamed multiple videos per day during the pandemics. It's a great source of exercises: https://www.youtube.com/c/sportspa%C3%9FeVHamburg/videos.

The club reopened ~1 week ago, so they stopped streaming but the content is still available.

I highly recommend if you're looking for ~1h of exercise per day :)

Thanks for your reply.

> Fundamentally, Identity makes it possible to choose how much of this data traverses / is stored on your servers, just as Stripe did with card numbers.

There's a stark difference in how Stripe treats exports of card numbers versus exports of raw identity verification data. This makes it way easier, and more likely, for Stripe customers to choose to store raw identity verification information.

> With ID verification, however, many businesses have good reason to want more than just the verification result. For example, they may be subject to compliance requirements that mandate that they themselves possess or have access to the raw information. They may need or wish to perform additional checks on their side. Etc.

I acknowledge that some businesses have a need for this. But I see Discord and Clubhouse among your customer logos, and your product page talks about non-KYC use cases. Many of your customers will have access to identity documents without really needing it. That sucks for the end users of Stripe Identity, because it makes it more likely their data will be misused.

A concrete suggestion: make it possible for businesses to choose whether they have access the raw data, and expose the choice to the end user in the Stripe Identity flow. Ideally, businesses that want the raw data would be subject to security compliance requirements. This is an opportunity for Stripe to be a leader in setting high standards on how this type of data should be handled.
> they make sure the user get a specific version that is (hopefully) vetted and know as working properly

This is exactly what nixpkgs maintainers do, using more reliable and explicit tools than the likes of pip. A significant effort is made to enable tests on as many packages as possible, meaning that when you get a package from nixpkgs, it has been tested against the exact dependency chain (down to the libc) it is being shipped to you with. If tests fail, issues are investigated and solved.

This is a far stronger guarantee than you get from almost any other installation method.

This contradicts UBI

Normal estimates have world population increasing for at least 50 years.

So either we start running out of jobs before then or not, remembering we are only 10-20 years into the internet revolution.

People on UBI will either play computer games/use drugs or become people focused. Which means more family orientated. And a baby should cost a lot less than it's UBI.

(This assumes the correct definition of UBI not the one used to try and implement European style unemployment benefits in America)

I think that's a good takeaway. But he does mention that once he's in Columbia, he is able to convert some of his crypto into cash. So maybe storing more of his cash into crypto would have helped? But then again, he did need cash for bribes...
The article mentions regarding Intel's chip that they "recorded a peak of 207W during extended workloads, well over the 125W rating."

They also mentioned that "Intel increased the PL2 rating (boost) to 251W, a 27W increase over the previous-gen 10700K", and that Intel also allows motherboard partners to exceed that limit.

So yes, Intel's chip is a power hog.
This is unfortunate, but I suppose it joins the growing list of open source things that I have to avoid because I don't want to support behavior that's hostile/antithetical to the health of the open source ecosystem. It's a damn shame, but nothing new.
AFL++ already does that (it scans occurrences of strcmp, memcmp, etc. for magic values). The problem here might rather be that those magic constants are not expected to show up in the bit stream being read, but rather being the result of a calculation. If the result of a calculation must be 42 for a function to continue its execution, it's not so useful to have 42 in the fuzzer dictionary. If 42 is expected to be read from the file instead, it's easier and a dictionary will help.

40% of our electricity is clean. So even if we need to more that double electricity while making all the existing electricity clean, the growth rate is still only a factor of 5 over 29 years compared to the factor of 5.5 we grew from 1950 to 1973.
Love Let's Encrypt, Like 1password, support/use them both.

But I'm still unconvinced that every single one of those last remaining 15% of websites must be transitioned to HTTPS.

I have personal websites that are open, public, non-controversial, simple. I like that you can curl or wget them without mucking about with certs and that you can view them using anything and everything vaguely browsery ever made. I feel moving to HTTPS subtracts value, at least to me, and I'm the owner.

Not to get all grouchy old geezer, but I don't feel every single public open simple textual website must be encrypted. Where am I wrong / what am I missing? (While understanding there's a mathematical world of difference between statements "Most / 99% of websites should be encrypted!" and "All / 100% of websites should be encrypted!" :)
Erasing up to $50K of student debt by executive action, as is being advocated, would add to the national debt. If the president can effectively appropriate money without Congress and give it to one group of people, I don't see why he cannot erase the tax liabilities of a favored group in the future.

Any large-scale debt forgiveness should be enacted by Congress.

@throwaway4good The Hindu nationalism narrative espoused by mainstream media (who are extremely Left and psuedo-secular) is a false one. In the contrary, Hinduism is unfortunately dying a death by thousand cuts. The country is suffering from numerous atrocities by Islam (forced conversations, rapes, temple vandalism etc.). These are just a few (and not all) atrocities by Muslims just in the past week

The above is in a Hindu majority nation. Imagine the sheer number of crimes/atrocities Muslims would commit if they were the majority (like they did in Pakistan, Bangladesh and other Muslim majority nations).

Simultaneously, Hinduism is being dealt another severe blow by rampant Christian conversion (funded by donations arriving from the US) https://swarajyamag.com/news-brief/how-devout-christian-miss... and misuse of Hindu temple funds by Christian Chief Ministers https://iskconnews.org/government-control-weakens-indias-tem...

The currently ruling party, BJP, were democratically elected. They can barely be classified a Centre party or a Centre-right party and even appeal to Christian and Muslim voters in a few Indian states. The old ruling party, Indian National Congress (INC) is an extremely corrupt, inept and psuedo-secular minority appeasing party leader by an incompetent leader (Rahul Gandhi). They've ruled India since 1947 independence and have caused irreparable economic and cultural damage to the country through their policies. The country and Hinduism will be in dire straits if they're re-elected.
