If you don't want your transactions to be public, don't use a public ledger. You don't get to launder your money because you chose to use a ridiculous tool that made your transactions public and readable by anybody who has ever transacted with you or who can convince someone who did to tell them who you are.

Tornado Cash wasn't free, there was a fee which as I understand it was sent back to various developers.

Money laundering doesn't get to be something else and totally fine just because it's covering for a weakness of cryptocurrencies.
Ferromagnetic matter is magnetic by nature. If you look at the periodic table you'll see that most of the elements are actually metals. Below Carbon there's a line which parts metals from semi metals and non metals.

But with proper equipment you can detect non magnetic conductive materials. Not sure what's it called, but if you pass a magnet near eg. copper the magnetic force from the magnet will induce electricity on copper which in turn with also produce a slight magnetic field. There are many good YouTube videos on this topic and they're quite cool! (https://youtu.be/u7Rg0TcHQ4Y)
The one thing that makes me think that there might be something there: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avro_Canada_VZ-9_Avrocar.

Not because it worked, more because it really didn't (and they thought it would); it makes me feel like it was (very) loosely based on something else (something only seen).

I'd be very interested to see what would happen if you incorporated some very fast very heavy gyros inside of a disc.

Exactly the opposite happened. According to the documents Snowden leaked, Obama had already shut down email metadata collection, and after the Snowden leaks, Obama limited the phone metadata collection. There are no other NSA domestic spying programs that we know of.

Several people mentioned Kitty, so I looked at the screencast on the Kitty website to see what features Kitty has. While it has some neat features, like showing the current directory or the currently running command, I'm pretty sure that running tmux or GNU screen would break those features and most others.

So it looks to me like you can use a fancy terminal emulator with cool features, or you can use a terminal multiplexer (tmux or GNU screen), but the two don't mix.
Not easily, unfortunately, and battery performance has dropped noticeably over the last year. But it still easily goes for a full day with reasonable screen use (reading on the commute,...), so my pain for looking into how to replace it wasn't high enough yet.

I don't want to be apologetic of practices like glueing in batteries, I'm a fan of right-to-repair. I was just taken aback by the statement that didn't square with my experience (I'm not the only one in my social bubble with a phone older than four years, by far).

I'm not saying the modern CAMs have been compromised, just saying the profit incentive has dwindled. For a while, entirely non-OEM receivers were being used with key distribution over the internet. But at that point, just get a black market IPTV subscription. Compromising the cards has a fraction of the value it used to, and there's more 'locked down' targets in other devices to focus one's skills at.
Technology wasn't demonstrated in the pentagon UFO tapes. People extrapolated hypothetical technological capabilities based on uncertain second or thirdhand evidence, sensational reporting and eyewitness testimony. Not all such evidence may be interpreted properly (certainly not by the internet commentariat that wants to believe) nor may all interpretations be valid. One "triangle UFO" video[0] has already been debunked as lens bokeh[1].

Occam's Razor suggests that the vast majority of these sightings are hoaxes or misinterpretations, and the rest are conventional, albeit state of the art, aircraft whose actual capabilites are beyond what people may assume possible (as people in the 1960s might have assumed had they seen an SR-71 Blackbird when most commercial aircraft were still using propellers) but still not physics-defying.

Excellent. Now repeat that feat 2500 times to destroy all existing Starlink satellites, and keep doing it 1300 times each year to destroy all the new Starlink satellites that are being launched.

> But they need to only be used for that and most home cooks aren't willing to have a pan they only use for one thing.

I have a cheap 10" Lodge skillet that we use for everything. It pretty much lives on the stovetop. We make omelets every morning, wash it off, and put back on the stove to dry. Quesadillas at lunch. Red sauce for dinner. Potato gratin. Pineapple upside-down cake. You name it, it goes in the skillet, often without any oil.

The only time I ever have trouble with stuff sticking is after several days in a row of tomatoes or similar. Acidic stuff like that does damage the seasoning, and if you let it sit it will stick. Other than that, stuff comes right off even after hours of sitting around.

So many people seem to think you have to baby these skillets, and that's just not been my experience at all. It's not as nonstick as a brand-new teflon pan, but it's better than that same pan will be after 6 months, and if I damage the seasoning on my cast iron it really does repair itself through normal cooking (with a bit of extra oil in the meantime).
>I have seen the mess heavy cookware creates on those glass top cooktops - old style coils seems to be best for those.

I have successfully removed the cast-iron crud from a glass-ceramic cooktop using a paste of 91% rubbing alcohol and baking soda. You can speed up the process by scraping with the back of a knife a few times first. Overall, it's not slower than cleaning the grease traps on a coil stove.

The 2 biggest things I find missing in makefiles is the ability to have the "modified date" of a target be something other than the mtime of the target file, and for the dependencies of a target to be generated rather than statically specified. The latter there are workarounds for, but not the former. The author's suggestion of "better support for make docker" is completely the wrong thing to do - you don't need to support docker, you need to support mtimes and dependencies in a way that docker could use.

Yeah, I don't consider a meal done being prepared until the counters are wiped down, everything is put away, pans are cleaned, and it's plated for everyone.

Part of why I do this is because I have 3 kids. They are off playing while I cook, and I take the extra few minutes to get the kitchen in a decent state before calling them to the table. Otherwise I'm never gonna get it done because once they have my attention it's difficult for them to let go of it.

I imagine that anyone who becomes POTUS is quite suddenly exposed to a whole lot of new information that might change some of their previous views.

Maybe Lerner is to some degree cranky, but really almost all cosmologists are, too. So it is a matter of degree. If you have a print publication where every page printed has to be paid for, you are obliged to be picky about what goes on those pages. For a purely online medium, that goes out the window. Then, all you should be filtering for is relevance.

If anything "color" is correct, being the original Latin spelling. The Normans started misspelling it by the time they went about conquering the British Isles, but Middle English reflects both spellings.

On the other hand, English is descriptive rather than prescriptive, so both spellings might as well be equally correct.

On the third hand, they're both wrong if we want to get old school about it; no sense in catering to a bunch of French invaders when we have the perfectly good words "blee" and "hue".
well, to be an asshole:

The usage of “that” as opposed to “who” is the key there in English taught before the 2000s. Now of course, the usage of the pronoun who is dead, and that is used everywhere because people are objects in English now.

> Blockchains, like everything in existence besides central banks, can’t create money. (Cryptocurrencies are not money or currencies.) However, they can create value.

That's the type of facetious claim that leads everyone to tune off Blockchain/web3 snake oil salespersons. If your notion of value depends on your ability to generate artificial scarsity then it's not worth even debating.

> I don’t find the idea of a microtransaction every time someone visits a site to be repugnant at all. It costs me money (...)

Completely irrelevant. Like everything else in the whole world, if you're considering providing a service to the public but you think it would cost you too much to justify the trouble, then don't, and go do something fruitful with your life.

Just because you can come up with an idea to provide something, that does not mean you are automatically owed profit or even revenue, nor does it mean you are free to force everyone to hand over their hard-earned money to you just because you want to install your parking meter on their mouse button.
Wondered that too but the presentation slides make no mention of anything related to SimpleLink. Than again there could be more under the hood than just what the slides themselves describe. Close but probably not a match.

Also for everyone else - just a reminder, LWN is a great resource and is funded through subscriptions. Personally, I've found the information on this site to be extremely helpful to understanding how the kernel works - to the point that multiple products I've built were only really doable because of LWN articles explaining the subsystem I'm working with (namespaces, io_uring, etc are all are the topic of fantastic articles there). A personal subscription is extremely affordable and very much worth it. They have corporate site license subscriptions too.

Rufus (the ISO to Flash Drive app) recently added a feature to create a local user right into the installation media, remove telemetry, and remove windows 11 hardware restrictions. It's worked like a charm so far.
Agreed. But once you get some macros (or categories) then Objective-C becomes a great language.

Is both elegant and very powerful as it is has the perfect balance between a static and a dynamic language.

Swift on the other had is a language where wonks decided to throw every silly feature they thought off to the point that is becoming more complex than even Scala.

I wished Swift was just a modernized Objective-C with a normal non bracket syntax and some extra facilities that it was missing.

The squicky thing about the Microsoft online ecosystem of tools is their first party vs everything else approach. Where first party is easy and everything else is a second class citizen.

I'd feel a lot more comfortable if they categorically committed to only using APIs for their products that were also open to everyone. Have they done this?

Graph also seems unstable in regards to refactoring and deprecating over the past years. Look at something simple like "set up a trigger when a user receives an email." It's been through 2+ architecture changes (nothing, webhooks, delta, subscriptions?). Or Teams API coverage (beta or not?).

But most of my feelings are probably classic HN "Has MS really turned a page, or are they extending 90s behavior via cloud lock-in, with a veneer of nice tools?" paranoia. And only the future knows the answer.

Indeed. I second this recommendation.

I also recommend John Keel's "Operation Trojan Horse". He's my favorite writer on the phenomenon and brings a skeptic's wit to the analysis while not discounting the volumes of testimony from highly credible witnesses.
BPA is still used widely. BPB is sometimes used as a substitute but it’s probably just as bad.

> This doesn't really fit anything I understand about Obama or about the world.

The world should have taught you a thousand times over that politicians tell lies to get elected. If Obama was being honest, he would be the exception. Obama was a typical politician in a lot of ways. For example, he was bought and paid for by the RIAA and after he was elected he stacked the justice department with their lawyers and as a result his administration was extremely favorable to them. (see
https://www.wired.com/2009/03/obama-sides-wit-2). That said, listening to him talk about ending domestic spying, I believed him.

It's worth mentioning that he also campaigned on promises of transparency and said that he supported whistleblowers, but he branded Snowden as a criminal and his ended up being the least transparent administration in history.

It's possible he was shown a lot of things that convinced him, but I can't think of anything that would justify the ongoing violation of our basic constitutional rights. He gave some lip service about improving transparency at the NSA but ultimately did nothing to increase accountability for the misuse of the data being collected. Misuse that we now know was commonplace (thanks to Snowden).

I'd like to think that if he did see some legitimate use that made him believe it was a necessary evil that he would have done something to minimize the number of people with access to that data, but instead he made it easier for that data to be abused and shared with other agencies. In the end Obama gave the NSA more power than they had when he entered office.

At best, gun ownership should be viewed as a regulated privilege not unlike driving on public roads.

Everyone who drives has to be licensed to do so. There are different licenses controlling the use of larger vehicles on public roads. There are safety requirements vehicles must meet in order to be street legal. Every vehicle has a unique registration number tied to the owner.

All of these regulations have made driving considerably safer today than it was 80 years ago.
