It's a highly unlikely scenario, especially since the namespace for all possible BTC wallets is ridiculously huge, and only the very tiniest of addresses have been used. Besides, the scenario you've raised is much more likely to happen with traditional bank accounts, and which are explicitly linked to your home address.
Maybe not, but they haven't even laid charges on the officers who dropped these people off outside of town in deadly conditions. That is a criminal matter. It's more cover up for a situation they'd rather ignore.
It bugs me that they classify Alder Lake as being Sunny Cove. It is not. The code name for Alder Lake is Golden Cove / Gracemont for performance/efficiency cores.

In fact it is quite strange that the attack skips Tiger Lake (Willow Cove), which changes almost nothing from Sunny Cove besides L2 and L3 cache sizes, but shows up again in Alder Lake (which has two types of cores: does the attack work on both efficiency and performance cores?)
It is so obvious, and has been known for years, yet the EU banned plastic straws because of the waste in the oceans, so now every drink tastes like a schoolbook. Well done EU...

This. I wish your comment would go to the top.
Excellent!. Its good to hear about places where Spring nincompoops do not shove their crap framework down everyone's throat.
I lean anti-crypto but I flagged you. This kind of comment doesn't belong here.
Thank you for your contribution. I understand that viewing it from said perspective doesn't account for the complete picture. That said, I believe we can agree that both sides can be true simultaneously? Standard of living is improved and worsened in certain regards. OP and the reference I'm sharing discuss some of the negative impacts to local cultures.
I did one that was time limited (2 hours, automatically timed and enforced). The exercise wasn't hard, but it did have some tedious quirks which meant I wasted quite a bit of time. But I thought "fine, I can jump through this 2 hour hoop". After I submitted it, it turned out there were some previously undisclosed extra steps where I had to record videos doing the kind of things i'd expect to do in an actual interview (talk through my solution, and talk about a project I'm proud of). I immediately lost interest.
I agree. PCB layout itself is pretty fun and easy to do manually for any hobby sized projects. Making components is the tedious part. I wish there was some kind of standard component format that could be embedded into datasheet PDFs or something. Maybe as a QR code.
This is so spot on. Right now I work from like three places every day. I do some work at home. I'll move to a coffee shop or something somewhere and then my company has an office I'll usually spend some time in as well.

I walk between those spots. I like to take meetings on those walks or just use the time to clear my head. It's great.

It's not about officed or not officed... it's about my ability to find the best spot for me to be in any given moment.

I worked for a defense contractor that had a truly unlimited vacation policy as long as you were getting your work done. We actually would get formally reprimanded and put on a PIP for not using enough vacation. All benefits started day 1 including 4 months new parental leave (fully paid; STD following birth did not count against the 4 months), unlimited vacation (no questions asked and auto-approved for the first 30 days per year), unlimited sick leave (up to 5-days per incident after which you'd transition to STD up through 12 weeks then LTD at 100%, then 70% of pay until better or moved onto SSDI exceeding the benefit respectively), unlimited jury duty leave at 100% pay (one guy that I knew there spent 4 months on a jury for a complex civil trial), dedicated paid time off to vote in every election (local, state, or federal), and a whole heck of a lot more. Had I not gotten a much better offer from a HFT firm that fully offset the decrease in benefits, I probably would never have left the company because of how amazing the benefits were. I had taken 4 weeks off for my wedding + honeymoon before I quit and my manager was talking to me about how I should still schedule another 3-4 weeks off that fiscal year for vacations at other times.
If you return something whose body is a stream you still have to construct that thing, including the stream. And if you return something whose body is a stream you didn't fill in yet, you need to create entire async thunks or threads to fill that data in. You have also gained ~nothing.

Or, you know, you don't cram for the interview and just do as well as you can and let them evaluate on that. If you give me a meaningless take-home assignment, I have to actually write working code for it that looks good. If there's a trivial problem in an in-person interview, I can often "blah blah blah" through the more rote parts unless they really ask for details.

There's no wiggle room on a take-home. The code you write either does the thing or it doesn't. If you don't remember the exact way to do something in an in-person interview, you can express your general understanding to the interviewer and probably get some/all the credit of actually knowing it.
Formats are designed for a purpose.

XML was built for a very limited set of purposes - to create a common base markup for various document formats. It was almost purpose-built to create something like XHTML - a mixed content system where you can do semantic decoration of textual media content, and extend it with things like SVG and MathML.

The problem is that it was _not_ built as a cross-platform data structure interchange format, but it wound up being used for that way more than its intended purpose. This was partially because of the extensibility story - companies could agree on a common base format, and define their own extensions to add additional data. However this was a pain - the XML tooling was often generic to support both kinds of usage, and the language itself was ambiguous because the expectation that the underlying document being described would have document-specific clarifications on use and tooling.

JSON is an object notation - it is a way to transmit hierarchal data. It has limited extensibility in the sense that you can define rules for data processing, such as 'ignore things you don't understand' or 'name things which are not agreed upon with URI rather than short names'.

Trying to use JSON to represent the content model of HTML will just cause pain, because thats not what it was built for. It isn't even re-inventing things from XML, it is just cramming a square peg in a round hole.

Neither format was built to be a configuration file format for users to hand-edit config. As a result, they suffer limitations in their syntax and features (closing elements in XML, quoted property names and lack of comments in JSON being the most commonly cited). TOML is one popular choice for this sort of use case.
Everyone in this thread who thinks there is an easy / obvious answer to this question should realize how silly that belief is just from reading the other comments here:

"I'd rather wait in line at the DMV all day than go through a typical 6hr tech interview. Hire me based on my resume and a phone call, give me a task, and if it's good enough keep me. Problem solved."[1]

"Take homes are one of the single biggest turnoffs for experienced talent in interview processes. People don't want to do them. Especially good devs who can land a job anywhere."[2]

Drivers and couple attempts that they shot behind the barn(but made it into silicon).
In the interview process, ask questions like "How many days off did you take last year?" or "How many days off in a year does an average team member take?". If the answer is <= 15, or they bristle at the very mention of the question, there's your answer!

As an anecdote, I've worked at a startup with unlimited PTO where the culture was that most folks were working 45-55 hour weeks regularly, but everyone took vacation whenever they felt they needed it. I averaged ~5 weeks of vacation per year taken during my tenure there. That was probably about par for the course with that team. As long as you're performing well while you are working, give enough advanced notice, and willing to be somewhat flexible (eg don't take 2 weeks vacation right before a big deadline with 2 days notice) - it can work out quite well for all parties.
Disagree, cultural norms are not just formless things that can come and go entirely without context. We can never have a discussion about the morality of slavery without the historical context.

What will happen to the tainted money? This figure is about 400M$. I expect a secondary market for TCtETH (Tornado cash tainted ETH)

This is why crypto was never fungible or useful for privacy purposes. Gold and other precious medals can be melted. Crypto can never be seamlessly mixed. No matter how hard you try, transactions and trails can be reconstructed. The only way to mix is to generate a huge amount of noise.

This was inevitable. For the past 2 years or so years hackers would process their loot with Tornado. There is no way the govt. would stand for this. It's similar to how the Wanna Cry hack , in 2017, made KYC much more common because the hackers used exchanges to convert stolen BTC into monero. All it takes is a handful of people to abuse a service for it to be tainted/ruined for everyone else.
Yeah not sure if it was edited or my brain completely skipped it, but I totally didn't see that when starting my reply - sorry.
I don't know enough about Gainesville to comment seriously on this particular change, and the article is light on details. But the gloss it gives is this:

> "...allow duplexes, triplexes and quadplexes to be built on land currently zoned for single-family homes"

If true, this is a pretty minor change from R1 zoning.

*

I live in a part of coastal California with housing prices that have been rising very fast, much faster than wages -- for a couple of decades. And the effects of strict R1 zoning mean that unless you're rich, or already own property there, you have to leave town.

Most folks can't buy a home except by going very far to the outskirts of the city. This is a serious problem for people who are starting their career.

And ultimately strict R1 zoning has an almost uncountable number of eventual knock-on consequences: clogged highways, people with super-long car commutes, more pollution, an increasing amount of money spent on roads and dispersed infrastructure that aren't really necessary or even wanted by many people. An aging population of people in SFR's that many don't really want, because it's the only mode of living.

This one really does need a re-think. (And that's how I became a YIMBY despite owning a home!)
Check out Horizon EDA. It's basically Kicad with a much saner UI.
That gets to the point I was trying to make. Aviation initially became popular because it had advantage in cost, speed, and range. If climate change adaptation means aviation loses all or most of those advantages, then it would be logical to transition to other forms of transport, like rail, which have other advantages, such as capacity and comfort.

When looking at a binary blob for the driver, the person writing the docs of what the driver does sees "jump $addr1" but they don't know what's at the other end. To write the specification for the clean room reimplementation, they need to read the destination assembly and document that.

This provides documentation on what is at the other end of the address and what it does, and what the layout of each parameter is.

That means they will hopefully avoid having to recurse and understand all of the binary code to write the specification.
Almost all companies operate with an extremely low level of trust and most places are blame, shame, and ultimately game the system all the way down.

The alternatives where ready many years before the proposed end of nuclear. Solar buildup peaked in 2012 at over 10GWh/year and fell to 1 GWh/year due to political influence. Without the actions of the Merkel government, we would have 5 more years of nuclear and be way further ahead on renewables. So please stop blaming the Greens.

I've mostly switched to Apple Maps now. I often compare the two and while Google Maps is certainly more complete, I find Google Maps full stop wrong often when searching for things like "Mexican food". It shows a pizza and kolache place, while Apple Maps won't.

Regarding directions, I find Apple Maps more accurate in the time to destination and the UI much more pleasing. That said, if there is a ramp closed, Google is more likely to know about it.

For reviews, I find Google and Yelp mostly useless, Google's reviews appear spammed while yelp is known for removing bad reviews for money. Google has some neat insights like "how busy is it now", but I've found it to be very unreliable, Yelp can sometimes let you get in line at a restaurant. Google will have more photos usually, so that's a win.
It works as long as you have a culture where people don't abuse it. It's not workable if people think it's acceptable to disappear with some critical information only in their head and screw their coworkers. Document stuff. Set deadlines in advance, and expect people to meet them. Have a team that collaborates and is considerate to their peers. If people do this, nobody is counting how many days they're out.

I'd rather work at an unlimited PTO company with reasonable people than one with a generous allowance where people are always scheming to use it as a weapon.
This isn't my experience with Google Maps. Particularly during the pandemic, a lot of businesses were bordered up but still ostensibly "in business", with signs on the doors saying they'd be back in a few months. Google Maps claimed these businesses were all open during their normal hours.

Because when your credit card is scammed, its the credit card companies money that has been stolen so they are want to get it back. When its your debit card being scammed, its your money being stolen, and any help to get it back is just a cost center for the bank so they don't really invest in this side of their business like credit card companies do.
Different states are not different countries, and, if I may be so bold, the U.S. should be held to a higher standard than theocratic states or dictatorships.
Great advice.

We can see the opposite in Amazon where they successfully built a reputation as a terrible place to work with low pay relative to its peers, and now struggle to attract talents.
> threat of getting fired if I don't immediately live up to expectations

I also try to fire fast and every single time the issue is that they do not actually have the skills they listed on their resume.

That's why the coding test and that's why you need to fire fast.

I have all kinds of patience for good people that need ramp up time.
I've read that Godot doesn't support consoles (out of the box) because it can't integrate NDA'd console SDKs and tools. But why can't the Godot IDE use a plugin architecture that delegates to console SDKs and tools that the game developer has installed on their own machine?
> fire those that don't perform up to expectations quickly

What's the compensation for that risk? "We'll fire you in six weeks if you don't work out, so please leave your current job where you're well established and have about a 0.5% chance of getting fired this year."

Something like guaranteed six months severance, or a $100K reporting to work bonus with no clawbacks.

At the C-level, these kinds of guarantees happen all the time.

I believe his question was about "does this docker instance then rely on an external service/api to run", which it appears it does, and thus wouldn't quite qualify for fully self hosted.

Many reasons why it's important to know that, the one that matters to me personnaly is because of data storage location requirements.
Sure, there's a difference between

"Putin is trying to be a czar, this is bad and Putin is bad"

Vs

"Putin is good, everything wrong with Russia is the fault of those perfidious czars! Citizens are reminded that any criticism of Putin is illegal czarist sentiment, and to report all czarist sentiment to Putin's secret police. They know where to find you."

When South Africans realized their public funds were being looted by the Gupta family, and the latter paid PR firm Bell Pottinger to come up with a campaign to blame everything on white people ... that starts looking a little more like the latter situation.
Some people claim this is the situation with the new Twitter onion-service. Sad.
I agree, but it kinda sucks that we're about a decade into the Cryptocurrency Future and it's still too hard for random angry truckers to use it correctly
> This also might be the first time where a piece of code got sanctioned.

It's not, though. The project got sanctioned and by extension the services it provides. The blockchain implementation of said service is rather unique, but I don't think this is technically any different from projects like Popcorn time being sued/shut down despite their p2p systems.

The difficulty with smart contracts is that it's hard to take those services down. After all, you can't take a smart contract out of ethereum. The legal ramifications of this are interesting: the undeletable nature of blockchains and their capacity to store arbitrary data or execute arbitrary code could taint the entire blockchain when bad actors unleash services that cannot possible be taken down, causing anyone participating in the blockchain system to be an accomplice. Or perhaps the governments of the world will look at this more pragmatically and simply consider the contract dead, only sanctioning new people who call upon the contract to execute transactions.

This indestructibility of the blockchain is often sold as a benefit, a way to stick it to the government, but the real world doesn't care about your technical implementations when the police tells you to shut it down. Designing a system that you cannot control or shut down may not be a great idea, especially if interactions with said system are logged permanently and publicly.
My team once needed to hire someone from the outside. I posted a C++ job saying we expect people to know C++11 and to be comfortable working with a C++20 codebase

Literally more than half the applicants couldn't figure out how to update/install clang/gcc to compile our test. It wasn't timed or anything it was essentially change the lambda so it's by reference instead of by value (or the other way around idr) and send us back the one or two line change
It's not about if the take homes are fun or not. Far too many companies have varied take home tests that can take an hour or a 40-hour work week only to be ghosted after submission.
I don't partake in any asymmetric interview processes, and many places are happy to let me skip it. I'm happy to sit on a zoom call with one of your engineers for a couple of hours and do whatever they want me code in that time. I'm just not into doing it on my own time with no cost to the interviewer.
There are usually some reasons for the moderation policies, hopefully such that they improve the discussion. I explained how my actions improve the discussion (by cutting repeated arguments about the nothing-to-hide). You are just dismissing my arguments without any explanation.
