>What sort of answer are you looking for?

They said that some of the 3 I listed by name had "great opsec". I am curious which one of those they thought was great, and laid out why I think the opsec in these cases was really far from "great".

Maybe when they said "those listed", they were referring to the list on the website and not my list. In that case, I misunderstood and obviously my comment doesn't make much sense. But I presumed they were referring to my list.

>Humans make mistakes and act irrationally at times. Criminal enterprises are complex.

Agreed on both fronts.

But I think that the severity of mistakes is a scale, and some of the really big players on the darknet have made mistakes that I argue is much closer to the "really dumb mistake, trivially avoided" end of the scale, such as using your LinkedIn email to run your multi-million dollar black market.

>Opportunity for mistakes increases with scale.

Agreed. But none of the three examples I listed by name were affected by scale. Using outdated software with known vulnerabilities, posting your own email, and using an email connected to your LinkedIn are all not issues of scale.

Edit to clarify, as I think people may be misunderstanding me (maybe? hard to tell from just downvotes and no replies):

Opsec is hard. 100%. You have to maintain it basically forever, which makes it really hard.

But, if I walk into a bank intending to rob it and start shouting out my full name and address (or, say, left my drivers license at the scene), people would have a jolly laugh at how bad of a robber I was. This is analogous to using the same email to run your multi-million dollar black market as well as sign up for a LinkedIn account. Most people would agree that in my hypothetical, the robber made some really trivial mistakes. I'm not sure why it's so hard to say that for these darknet operators that basically did the same thing, but in computer form.
This echoes my understanding as well. Virtual Maker uses BabylonJS under the hood for rendering. That said, I've been interested for some time in finding/developing a standard format for describing 3D content which can include some form of input handling (GLTF is just rendering, AFAIK). Think <button>, but for 3D/VR. Maybe then we could port some simple experiences easily between engines.

Almost without exception, every discussion with anti-gun advocates is predicated on this kind of attitude, in concert with an astonishing ignorance of the subject they wish to further regulate.

Kind of like conservative men and their beliefs on women's reproductive rights.
Do similar laws apply to any businesses besides public utilities?
> [...] like pointing out how many mass shootings are done with guns that bypassed background checks.

Can you name some? Better yet, can you point to data on how often this has happened?

Off the top of my head, I can think of several instances where the guns were legally purchased and the shooter passed the background checks. I can think of a couple where they were stolen, and one where they were taken from a family member after that family member's murder. I can't think of any where the firearm(s) were acquired exclusively through private sale.
"Personally I think they should not be able to decide such things. A payment provider should be forced to accept all legitimate customers."

Payment providers are companies. They should be able to decide what they'll cover or not. In this case the bigger issue is that you essentially have a duopoly that allows 2 companies to affect the market with those decisions.
That's a great way to get shot.
So how do you implement a "one click unsubscribe" link in an email? They're on GET requests. You could use JavaScript on the resulting page to then trigger the unsubscribe but bots are now running JavaScript as well.

Payment processors similarly prevented right wing sites from accepting donations and payments. Gab as one example had to create their own server farm and payment system in order to operate since they were shut out of every other provider.

This happened to me, twice, and my company is < 20 people. Of those 20, 2 had multiple jobs. We hired a guy who found us on HN Who's Hiring who turned out to be working 3 (THREE!!) full time jobs, each paying $140k+.

He quit when I started putting deadlines on work when he started falling behind. I got suspicious, reached out to his prior company's CEO to ask if he was still employed, and turns out he was! Then came the discovery of the 3rd company...

For hiring managers out there: make sure candidates have a linkedin profile that lists your current company as their current place of employment (both employees with 2+ jobs had their LinkedIn hidden for obvious reasons), and always run background checks that include employment verification screens.
It's hard to avoid the obvious conclusion of this article.....gun owners need more guns, clearly. :)
I often look at the "new" section.

In fact, that's where I found this submission.

You say that "looking at the new submissions doesn’t seem worth it because most of them won’t be interesting."

I say that finding stuff worthy of upvoting puts my preferences into the mix.

The stuff that makes it to the front page is often fabulous, but I have interests that diverge from the mean around here (don't we all?). As such, I get to upvote (and discuss) stuff that may or may not make to the front page, but I'm better informed and have a wider selection for it.
>so, someone breaks into my house while I am on vacation for three weeks, ignores the alarm, rips open the gun safe, takes a gun, kills someone...I go to jail?

Not if you report it or demonstrate it was stolen. And I didn't write "go to jail" - indicted means they're going to investigate you, just like they do now when a gun registered to someone shows up in crimes. And those people don't "go to jail" if they didn't have the gun.

What it does curtail is people buying guns to give away, because at some point enough guns will show up having been registered to them then used in crimes, and that should be prosecuted. That behavior is what is going to bring even stricter regulations if it is not curtailed by some set of laws.

I'd prefer a decent background check on firearm transfers - I already pass them with zero problem, but it would hinder people that should be banned from working around such measures.
Why speculate - just give it a try. It will take only a minute to begin.
I get what Ron Gilbert said by wanting to move Monkey Island forward. As a creator / designer you want to try out new things - because you might be bored with the old ways of doing things.

But as a designer - you're not just creating for yourself. More importantly - with a property like Monkey Island - you're creating for your audience that spans decades,. This loyal audience might have fallen in love with the original style.

It would have been better to move that old style forward - build on it and not completely shift direction.

This new style just looks 'cheap'. Cheap is probably not a fair description - it looks too 'childish'?

Maybe he's targeting the new generation / children and not so much us old timers?

I'm sure the game will be fun though.

If he'd stuck to his principle of using 'state-of-the-art tech and art' - he'd use the art style of 'The Last Night' or similar.

But again - The Last Night is not cheap to produce and you'd need a much bigger team.

I agree with your perspectives with regard to civil servants, but the people with power I was referring to are the wealthy.

No state actor (other than arguably putin, but I'd characterise his power as individual and not derived from his role as a government agent) is as powerful as eg. rupert murdoch or peter thiel individually, and in aggregate (and in spite of not working together) the 0.01% are vastly more powerful than any state.

If 10% of the fortune 500 were confiscated and redistributed equally every time there's a pandemic or 5% of the amazon is burnt down or there is an unchecked oil spill, then the wealthy would ensure these things do not happen.
That's a pretty narrow definition of what's productive. Information is capital. Being able to link up a customer with an on-demand driver adds a lot of value into the system.

I ask people on Twitch why their bedrooms are so purple and not red or green, and many think it's unique.

Blue was the "corporate" color back in 00s. Nobody would complain that something was blue. The sky and sea is blue. It's a neutral soft color that shows more personality and technical ability than black and white. Then every site became blue.

Purple is likely the sexy, edgy color. If you wanted to stand out, you get purple hair. But it's also soft and neutral as a background.
I think the scarcity is a bad feature for a currency used for payments. It encourages users to hold instead of spend.

I imagine that's a major reason why we don't see many payment-oriented cryptocurrency use-cases. The allure of speculative investment is too great for many.

Some people sure. Maybe even the "twitter consensus" or "HN consensus", but I think you should be very careful about taking apparent consensus on these sort of social media platforms as indicative of a broader consensus in society.
I hate to be the one, but he's right: more background checks is hilariously unpopular outside of blue cities and states. A lot of people in red states, even in cities, think that the gun regulations we have are too strong.
> I think their business model is like a gym

With micropayments, the business model becomes (quite literally) pay-per-view.

> it sucks for recurring transactions.

The UX is bad at the moment, but with crypto there is this idea of "streaming payments", which work very well as a substitute for subscriptions. Basically, you make only one initial transaction to set up the "subscription" with a locked deposit. On every block (or on every X seconds if you are doing off-chain), a small transfer is made. You only pay gas if you need to "top-up" the balance or when you want to close the stream.

Because whoever bought Swype (which had its own limitations, most particularly that it liked to suggest "née", a word I almost never use, instead of "me", which is one of the most common in English) just buried it. Apple's swiping keyboard is junk, but since I really became used to using Swype on Android for almost a decade, I can't bring myself to use two hands to type on a phone.

"Our", "out", and "put" are going to be tough; so be it. But Swype had the very elegant technique of squiggling on a letter to indicate that it should be doubled, which others do not. And you could capitalize just by swiping up above the keyboard area from the first letter. And it had handy shortcuts by swiping from the Swype key in the bottom left to various places, using it like ctrl on a regular keyboard - A, X, C, V worked as you would expect. And so on. Not to mention that it learned quickly - type "fuck" five times, and it's in the dictionary and won't try to censor you when you Swype it. Not so on iOS.

Guess I'll go back and give SwiftKey and GBoard another chance. Maybe they've improved.

Mike Stewart has made a huge effort to dig up Apollo documentation from various archives. For the updata test box, he eventually found a high-level functional specification. It mostly confirmed what we had already figured out. We haven't found any detailed information on this box, and nothing about the internal modules. But maybe we'll be lucky and some will turn out.

I use the Apple Podcasts app frequently and have notified myself relying on the "Up Next" feature quite heavily. It seems to produce a steady flow of different, updated episodes from my subscriptions for me.

I used to use the queue quite a lot, but got frustrated with e.g. political episodes that included current events which would no longer be super relevant after some time.

I agree tax and legitimacy are not the same thing. Tax avoidance being common in an industry does not make the work itself illegitimate.

The reason I mentioned tax is that not having a bank account was making it more complex for them to actually pay their taxes as a business. Taxation in the Netherlands is no longer something you can pay with an envelope of cash. If you want to run a legit business you can't do so without one. It was one of the things mentioned during the debate about this.

I'm not sure how it turned out because I don't live there anymore but there was talk of mandating the banks to offer them an account. After all without overdrafts or loans there is no real risk to the bank anyway.

There is a large gap between "I like what the government is doing right now" and "time to keep the government in check with guns".

In other words, just because guns aren't being used to keep the government in check right now doesn't mean there aren't valid situations where they could be. I'm not entirely sure if your comment is insinuating that. If it's not, sorry for misinterpreting it.
Do you feel like you make the same decisions when you are tired, or hungry, or angry, as you do when you aren’t those things? Do you ever feel a disconnect about what you wish you would do and what you actually do? (E.g. exercising more, eating better, spending more time doing x, or anything else) Have you ever had trouble kicking a habit, or starting a new one you want to have?

I am not talking about direct control in the sense of “I want to move my hand here and then I make my hand move”, but more in the sense of “there is sometimes a disconnect between the choices I want to make and the choices I actually make”. That difference ebbs and flows, and I am sure some people are better at living exactly how they want to live than others, but I don’t think anyone ALWAYS makes the decisions that are perfectly in line with what they want to choose to do.
Note that many editions of Shakespeare modernize the language a bit. I don't know what Folger does (anyone know?) and I haven't found an authoritative source for the original, but Open Source Shakespeare is the best I've found so far:

You might find some aspects of my SiliconSqueak 3 design similar to your ideas. The details for the instruction set can be found in the appendix of this 2015 text:

http://www.merlintec.com/download/jecel_phd_deposited.pdf

The basic idea is that each instruction mentions two operand registers and one destination register. There are 4 kinds for the first operand and the destination:

t0 - t31: actually map to the special stack cache. Changing the frame pointer will remap them to a different area, possibly causing a line to be reloaded.

i0 - i31: actually map to the data cache as the first words of the receiver. Changing the self pointer will remap them to a different area.

s0 - s31: control registers for DMA-like logic that allows values to be streamed to other processors or to memory

x0 - x31: a mix of registers that control the hardware, including the frame pointer and the self pointer. Also allow pushes and pops to the stack.

The second operand can be these as well, but can also be several kinds of constants and can (L0 - L31) fetch the literal values in the current method, which also allows indirect access to globals.

The stack cache operates on linked lists of 32 word blocks (the current frame can span two such blocks) so the hardware to map tN to a cache word only needs a five bit adder
