That sounds incredibly useful actually. Is that the main sales pitch for codespaces?
I don't have a lot of experience with fragrances, so I'm not sure how to describe it. It's not at all flowery, it seems like it would work well for any gender. It reminds me of the smell I encounter when I open the spice cabinet.
It's like how billionaires are able to get loans by putting up collateral and greatly reduce their taxes. Bezos isn't actually worth $200 billion until he sells the stock, which is a bit like what would happen here. He's going to die a very, very rich man with a 3-4% tax rate each year while he's alive.

>Can one person succeed at a serious and dedicated effort to withdraw thirty billion dollars USD from Bitcoin at once?

This seems pretty easy to test. Just go through all the exchanges and sum up their orderbooks. No need to actually test with 259684 BTC and lose a bunch of money through slippage.
I think a lot about Alcor too - I think it's probably worth doing. Hopefully you can get someone you care about to do it too.

In the unlikely event it does work, there'd at least be a handful of people - it'd be pretty unlikely to be the only success story I think. Downside risk seems small?
Except total votes don't matter much in our presidential system. Trump got the 2nd most and he lost...

It comes down to a few ten thousands (or less) in critical swing states.

There's a compelling statistical argument to be made that states like Georgia, or maybe perhaps even bigger margin in FL, might have gone another way without laws & regulations to make it harder to vote and cast a ballot by mail.
Wish I could see the batch source.

Not nearly the same, but back in school, we were able to real havoc with some rouge batch files that were included in the image used in every machine. In our case though, one happened to contained credentials for an AD account with admin privileges.

Not sure this is meaningful. It's similar to asking "I wonder if the stock market could cope with Elon Musk dumping all his Tesla shares at once. Do it!" Of course the stock would crash. Of course it would create a panic among not just Tesla shareholders but investors across the board. Of course the FTC would go and try countermeasures. And similarly, of course BTC would crash, at least temporarily. It's still a market with human actors in it.
Are you including the increasing value of the BTC in that calculation? I imagine if all goes well, it would be worth a lot more than what it is today in 19 years. It might be impossible to ever withdraw the whole thing at that rate.

My site only handles ~ 350 million requests a month but even at that small scale, it's very tough.

Well, in US the victim would (if he lives) publicly apologize to the shooter for making the shooter shoot him.
I'm guessing you got this idea from one of those "how rich people dodge taxes" articles? It's a terrible idea, because you still remain exposed to bitcoin. If you borrowed 1M dollars against your 2M in bitcoin holdings, and bitcoin crashes, you'll get margin called and be expected to pay that 1M back.
It would be unwise to try to get away with that amount of coins, given that everyone was ready to trace these coins to find out who has access to those wallet addresses.

For once, at least this crypto-hacker did the right thing and is handing back the coins. Still an extreme demonstration of a hack and it shows that these projects are still immature.
Taiwan used to be an autocracy too yet turned itself into a liberal democracy. At least "right wing" autocrats have goals, albeit misguided ones, and power is a mean to an end; but communist are obsessed by power and power alone.

Netflix signs licensing deals that are per-country, and the licenses require that Netflix actively enforce that media is steamed only to the country in question.

You think Netflix is enforcing these restrictions because it wants to, or because it thinks it's fun to defeat VPN's?

Of course not. All of this effort costs money that obviously Netflix wouldn't be paying if it weren't required to. It's doing so because it's contractually obligated to.

So don't get mad at Netflix. They don't have a choice. They're just doing what their content providers require them to.
That only works if the loan snapshots the BTC price at the time of the loan.

In the case of the most naive lender in the world who does this, you will be bitten by their incompetence in some other unrelated way almost immediately.

In the case of any competent lender who knows anything about Bitcoin, they would go "way too liquid" and "haha nope".

I had problem with lastpass' overly aggresive autofill and form detection system that seriously slow down any page that has a lot of input fields. I had a page with 500 input fields that I used semi-regularly at work to bulk update some configuration, and the slow down was so bad the page will be unresponsive for >5 minutes. It was the last straw that made me migrate bitwarden.
Thanks for the support @raihansaputra ! Already reached out to you for potential collaboration yah ;)
Let me tell you, as someone who used 1password since 3.x .. when I went to buy 7.x standalone it took me over an hour to find the page that let me buy standalone over three sessions.

Why did 97% buy the subscription? Because they hid the other version in a locked filing cabinet in a basement with a broken staircase.
My last experience was with Go. Awesome language. I use it when I need extraordinary performance. For everything else, it's Python or vanilla JavaScript.

Isn't Satoshi Nakamoto still holding like 1.5 millions BTC?
Does that new "core" prevent you from syncing via iCloud?
Unless you can find a way to pay for your retirement almost entirely in Bitcoin, you will probably need to transfer it out to something more liquid. No one wants to sell you a house in Bitcoin only for the value to drop significantly overnight before they could convert it to cash all because some tech billionaire made a funny tweet. Maybe a stablecoin has more potential for a payment system but Bitcoin is just too risky to hold onto if you aren't trying to make money off of it. If someone really had that much Bitcoin laying around, they might as well just take out a large chunk now to throw into a stable index fund and just live off the dividends. Even just a yearly return of 1% from $100M would provide a lavish lifestyle where you'd never have to do anything you don't want to ever again. Set your whole family up with trust funds, make a huge donation to get a hospital wing named after you, fill a garage with supercars, the choices are endless. Or you could just sit staring at a computer screen as your crypto bounces around waiting for some huge crash or new legislation to fuck you over.
They are so incredibly rich, end of discussion.
why does 1password need ongoing support? Take these strings, encrypt them. Let me decrypt them using a password i specify. Let me search for them and sort them.

Done.
That’s too bad. As a digital nomad, I wish that they would do more unpaid work for me so that I could use their software to perform more efficiently at my six figure job while riding the train to my next Airbnb.
The vendor has custom modules for auto-updating. afaik F-Droid also auto-updates on freer distributions of Android but not on most manufacturer ones.
Ha no. Thought of that but didn't want to deal with the complexity. Ultimately a fine problem to have.
This helps handle IO in pure functional languages because? Is it because functions can have more than 1 type?
Is that "spoiled" or jsut the way things should work?
...this early?

no e2e on iCloud has been a major issue for years. It's not like they're beta testing (the underlying principle/structure that is)

and again, I haven't seen a system that flags bad material that is also e2e because the whole premise is flawed.
I think this is the exact opposite point to make for these believers above.

BUT I think it's a worthy policy debate. I could see myself being in favor of allowing long term residents the vote given how impossible it is to get citizenship (or hell even permanent status).

maybe then the point should be fixing our immigration system and naturalizing the huge backlog we have.

as is, millions are already being taxed but not represented and they are subject to the laws they don't get a voice in crafting.
Yeah like, if the licensing wasn't an issue, Netflix would have a menu somewhere where you could simply select a country. They aren't doing this to be malicious, they just can't legally show certain content in certain countries.
Hey @jadk157, thanks for the support! We deeply believe in the cause since both of our parents are in chronic conditions that require them to have strict dieting and daily monitoring. We build Sirka to help people in similar conditions improve their lives and even prevent it from first place. Long journey onwards, but excited to tackle this huge problem in Indonesia's healthcare!
> it forces Apple/Google to hand over your email address (or other means of communication) to anyone you download an app from so they can spam you

Which part of the text says this? I did see:

> (b) INTERFERENCE WITH LEGITIMATE BUSINESS COMMUNICATIONS.—A Covered Company shall not impose restrictions on communications of developers with the users of the App through an App or direct outreach to a user concerning legitimate business offers, such as pricing terms and product or service offerings.

But that part doesn't seem to be requiring app-stores to hand over emails, but rather merely prohibits app-stores from controlling communications.

Which would seem to be related to, e.g., ["Apple charged over 'anti-competitive' app policies"](https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-56941173), 2021-04-30:

> "At the core of this case is Spotify's demand they should be able to advertise alternative deals on their iOS app, a practice that no store in the world allows," it said in a statement.
Marsha Blackburn signed on. That can only mean AT&T or Verizon is lobbying for it. She’s basically legislates whatever they tell her to do.

It’s interesting to live long enough to see a (relatively) free and open society like Hong Kong get consumed by an authoritarian country that is growing more bold every year.
Hah, and not a mention of the movie from which they 'borrowed' so much, Secret of the Incas!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secret_of_the_Incas

One of the most famous scenes - positioning the artifact at just the right moment to reflect the rays of sun to reveal... - straight out of the 1954 movie.

Secret of the Incas was filmed on location in Cusco, before it was a tourist destination. The city is raw, colorful, a snapshot in time. The script is full of humorous sarcasm, with an interesting (but fairly slow) story, based in fact.

As for Charlton Heston's character? The prototype for Indiana Jones: fedora hat, leather jacket, pistol, mannerisms...

The full movie is on YouTube: https://youtu.be/OYQD24HrNlU
So many dark patterns on reddit. Like trying to get you to use the app when you're on a tablet or mobile device. Or switching to the new interface when you click on a google search result that points at reddit.
Notice how the global plague to free speech and innovation dictates anyone critical of this murder legion gets the on no no negative karma online? Why don't we change that? Every day. For the rest of our lives?
I would love it if you could expand on this. I currently work with AWS Lambdas a lot and have tried a couple options for running them locally but never got to a point where it was worth the effort. For example I use PyCharm and tried getting the aws serverless plugin working with it for running Lambdas and State Machines but just kept running into different problems.

There must be a better approach than setting up a bunch of mocks and running the core logic in a scratch file.
Literally the end of evolution.
> I'm surprised they didn't just start banning customers abusing the service.

One of CondoInternet's advertised selling points before they sold to Wave Broadband is that you could buy the 1Gbps service and do whatever you wanted, including run your own servers.

So it wasn't an abuse of the service. Everyone I knew on CondoInternet would buy the highest speed package so they could run Minecraft and Plex and other servers for their friends. It was like having Speakeasy Internet Services SDSL back again but with 200 times the upload.
If you have a house or family in the us or uk, could you make your own tunnel with a rasppi or nuc or something?
Similar situation here. Moved here a bit more recently than you, national security law became a thing after I arrived, and it’s been more and more aggressively enforced since.

If you’re leaving to the US, can I ask how you’re going about it? My email is in my profile if you don’t want to post here. I’m trying to leave as well but my fiancée is facing what looks like a year or two long immigration process.

It’s a bit of a shame that the U.S. government passes so many proclamations of support or “it’s dangerous in HK” statements, but makes it hard to actually return.
> Except total votes don't matter much in our presidential system. Trump got the 2nd most and he lost...

My point wasn't about "who won", only pointing out the statistics of popularity, considering that an election is basically a popularity contest.

The most unpopular president (and vice-president) got more historical more votes than the last most popular president of the past 50-100 years.
>At least "right wing" autocrats have goals, albeit misguided ones, and power is a mean to an end; but communist are obsessed by power and power alone.

I don't think that's true at all.

Most of the Middle-Eastern dictators are "right wing" and have no goal apart from seizing and holding onto power.

On the communist side, while that would be the case for many leaders, both Ho Chi Minh and Fidel Castro come to mind as exceptions. Keeping it strictly to "CCP-style" communism, Wen Jiabao jumps out as someone who saw the CCP beauracracy as a positive means to an end.
Ok, but that would just nuke every order book to 0 and tell us nothing about Bitcoin since trading to USD is completely external to Bitcoin the protocol. Do you understand how markets normally work and just want to see the world burn? Or in the words of Steve Zissou “what would be the scientific purpose of killing it?” “…revenge”
And it's also been upheld that private businesses have a lot of power in deciding how/who they allow shopping, hiring or workers, and participating in society.

Religious and 1st amendment leeway to discriminate goes both ways.
I was surprised to learn that there are only 23 sre at reddit. The site receives more traffic than Twitter. Less than 1000 employees. Seems severely understaffed? Or other companies are extremely bloated lol
Its not really a problem to solve. Its a pretty much guaranteed end we can only delay by so much.
I have 17 PhDs in Biological Sciences and I get massages from the dean of John's Hopkins Medicine daily and my buttocks are actually made out of science diplomas.

The fact that you're supportive of stifling a scientific discussion and supportive.of censorship makes me think youre a fascist and wonder about your credentials.

Science is all about questioning. Arrogant assholes that believe they know the absolute truth are often wrong(and fascist).

And the fact remains...usage of masks is not settled science by any stretch of the imagination.

And for you to claim such and support stifling a conversation about it is disengenuous and makes me think you probably have more of a Masturbation degree in the Biological sciences than a Master's degree.
With billions of dollars I'm sure you can shell out for a firm that will deal with all that mess for you.
Yeah but, all the interesting stuff happens in the niche corners of the internet.

Reddit is so addictive honestly.. Well time to rest and get to work :/
Netflix likely spotted the behavior through one of the many other heuristics that can identify this, such as:

- Lower packet TTL than gateway

- Lower packet MTU than gateway

- Much higher latency than gateway

- WAN IP listening on well-known VPN ports for PPTP/IPsec/etc

- Ongoing sessions that suddenly teleported to a Chinese WAN IP when the VPN connection dropped

- Incorrect DNS configurations or stale caches that point toward inappropriate CDN edge nodes

- System time zone (via JavaScript or native app) not matching source region

- Unusual system language preferences for the region

- One of the hundreds of leaky data points revealed by Android devices and other native apps
>would cause a lot of needless development churn and hassle

The hassle of doing what your users are paying you to do? Any child can hack a UI together in HTML but there's a reason no one (usually) pays for that.
This bill just shows that government loves money, especially when it’s someone else’s. Heaven forbid Americans can make money without having to also pay the government.

Assuming those order-books are legitimate.

@Bitfinexed (https://twitter.com/Bitfinexed) would argue that order books based on USDT (Tether) are not, and either the rug would be pulled or you will quickly find that you're holding ~2% of filled value (actual backed Tether)
Isn't that the whole point of MTL-style typeclasses? You use e.g. throwError and can be confident that it'll be plumbed appropriately for whichever context you're currently in. Maybe shouldn't be a special case.
I had an issue like a year ago, luckily all is well now. I got a pilonatal cyst which is gross (dont google images of it) but it is a relativly common tailbone ailment caused by sitting to much and just being predisposed to it. Its also called Jeep butt, because soldiers in WW2 riding jeeps on bumps roads would get this issue commonly.

Lifestyle changes ive made to try prevent from occuring in the future:

-Walk around the block before work,

-Walk around the block lunch break,

-Long walk/run after work.

-Weight loss

-Dont hesitate to get up and walk around as often as you want (keep the blood pumping!)

I dont sit on a chair at computer after work hours. I do on the weekends to program stuff, but monday-friday i dont sit at my computer after work, and il sit on couch rather than chair if i can on weekends. My issues really arose when i was working on a coding project after work hours (majority waking hours was in the chair working), gained like 20 pounds over a year, reduced my exercise frequency, my primary care doc mentioned these all could contribute.

I also wear very lose shorts during the day to orevent my waistband from screwing up my posture, but maybe once we get stuffed back into the office we wont be able to do that anymore.
I had been experimenting with web crawling with a lot of technologies. (Python based and others).

What most (uninitiated) developers do not realize is that web crawling is not for mere mortals.

1. We are at the mercy of the webpage authors.

HTML is a great lanuage to encode information. But most developers (usually webpage authors) see it as a kind of tool for presentation only. Infomation can go anywhere in the document. And they are prone to changes.

2. The internet society frowns on web crawling

You look into any site's TnC, you might come across a clause which prevents you from crawling. The specific word may not be in the legalese, however, it implies any kind of crawling is denied. There is good reason for this - it is mostly done to encourage fair use of the service.

3. No body designs services to be crawlable.

Most big name companies do have some alternative. Like Facebook had "graphs". (Now obsolete). They allowed end users to extract data using simple queries - like " list friends of X who live in city Y, and who is not your friend". But "graphs" feature came a lot later after Facebook launch. Not at beginning.

Usually at the beginning stages of any services we are at the mercy of #1 and #2

For #1 no one ever designs page to have have information always at a standard location. It changes.

4. The tech isn't ripe yet.

This is my personal view. I had been experimenting with puppeteer and selenium behind a corporate environment. I wasn't that happy with the "net" developer experience. I found things like taking a screenshot or pdf buggy. For e.g. to get the latter I have to run my browser in non-headless mode. In headless mode my laptop system policy disabled some extensions important for the webpage to load correctly.
Disregarding your viewpoints/our bias, as this is HN, here is a technical question:

what, if anything, would a router show at this point in time. Do these routers use store logs that would still be accessible?

Are they trying to find some rhetorical bamboo in the switch (trying to be funny though those beliefs definitely are not in my book...)?

Creative Teams: Stop Using the Developer's Deadline as Your Deadline
Everything passes. This is not something that can be conquered; it is an inevitable part of the fabric of existence. Maybe it will one day be possible for people to live indefinitely. Maybe egomaniacs would live for thousands of years if they could. But it is not possible to live forever; the universe itself won't last (at least, in form hospitable to life) forever. And so the cessation of our consciousness is inevitable. We can't change this any more than we can change the value of pi.
