Statement is correct.

Monero remains technically untraceable, not in practice. Money must go in and out to be useful and it can be traced.

They payment was made into bitcoin address, then transferred into Monero, then it was sent into another Monero wallet. After that they used statistical analysis to determine the most likely receiver.

All sections of the additional investigation report where KRP discloses its methods have been retracted. Details about the analysis of Monero traffic are not revealed.
Missed opportunity to insert a sde joke in there. Yes it's bad form to like the humorous posts but HN is rather drab as of late.
> It just seems like a decent proxy for "do you care at all?"

Because the reality is, when it comes to Git history, no, I don't care in the slightest. I get all the information I need by:

- Reading previous PRs (the final diff)

- Checking the name on a git diff of a line

- The ticket reference

Git commits are a tool to help me write code and reverting to a "known-good" state. Once it's merged into master/main, I don't care how messy it is because 99.999999% of the time, I'll just go back to the merge commit.
Ah yes, raw dogging.
> If it's large

Then make the PR small.
Buses sometimes have flywheels for that purpose, too. Although that also has weight and space, so may not be worthwhile for a vehicle where both are needed for its primary purpose.
Yes, you nailed it with "the deviations only make it more strict" - that's why I think that it's reasonable.

I believe that, in general, when your implementation is deviating from a spec, you should have a good reason to do so, so you don't end up multiplying incompatible implementations - so you should at least think about why you're incompatible. I just think that this is a good reason.
You're not alone, ACE 0 and a decent job/life but reached KHHV wizardry recently; suspecting it's common in the hacker/CS community. At least, life in Europe is pretty peaceful, even without considering personal pain.

What does that have to do with the comments?

That also isn’t using US comms infrastructure, correct?

My understanding is that is all broadcast via the ‘unregulated’ bands between the drone and controller + bits that are mandated to be broadcast by the FAA.
That’s the only number they should mention.
LinkedIn starts to feel a little like Facebook years back. If you don't "engage" with the platform it will start throwing random posts at you.

Personally I think the shit posting started because people where not getting any reaction of Facebook anymore, after it turned into an algorithm driven ad pumping engine from hell. People want their posts read by other humans, and LinkedIn is the last place where this is actually happening. It's just that some people, especially those in marketing, online retail, management and HR absolutely suck at communication.

LinkedIn is great as a contact list and for job hunting, if you're a technical person. The same shit posting marketing people can't even sell themselves. If you have two people posting that they are looking for a job, and one it technical and the other is marketing or HR related, you'll see a clear different. The technical person can have multiple interviews lines up in hours, the marketing person will get comments like "Repost", "Someone has to know someone" or "Hire X, their great", but no one actually have a job.
> 0MW of solar power used

No, the 1MW solar power was used. It was used by someone who believed that it created emissions. But the emissions were instead produced in Seattle rather than Kansas. The accounting relies on the person buying power in Kansas not to care that it's fossil fuel power that they're purchasing. They know that there's emissions from their power use, but they don't know where those emissions are.
I recognize myself a lot when he talks about the feeling of losing knowledge acquired years ago. I would be very interested with MathAcademy if it can help me fight this!
I am also wondering if it can help me learn new knowledge, especially new topics in maths I have never learned before?

Also what is the difference between MathAcademy and Brilliant?
I have read many skeptical opinions on Brilliant, so it would be interesting to have a comparison.

> that's clearly because people in tech generally value efficiency

I think this is you reading this into the comment. They don't mention efficiency.
This is painfully accurate. I'm not sure how companies fall prey to these problems, but they seem to be incredibly hierarchical. What I means specifically is that the lower level employees and mid-level managers seem almost rabid to praise, cater to, and and be swept up by the useless whims of nearly anyone in the executive suite. It's sickening, and not because of the impacts on work. Why do so many grown adults act so pathetically servile to someone who is in a higher rung in a company? These executives don't have better ideas inherently, and due to being so far removed from the real work, are often a misinformed distraction.
No one seems to think that an executive would want to be told that they are wrong, or misinformed, or missing the point. But, a worthwhile executive would want to hear exactly that. They would want to know if their ideas were actually going to disrupt work, make the firm worse off, etc.
And I know what you're thinking: many executives are self-interested, and just want to see their ideas implemented, company health be damned. Yes, that's true. But then why does anyone give them the time of day? If an executive is nakedly self-interested they should be sidelined as aggressively as possible, both to neuter them and also to protect the company.
You are conflating the notion that some things are more important than others with completely throwing out things deemed not that important.
> This happens regularly (perhaps not frequently) to people with their Gmail account. Google's AI says no, and there are very few people reporting successfully navigating the system to get their account back.

Yep, happened to me too. I have a gmail account from back when gmail was still in private beta. I know the correct password. I have access to the recovery email. I can't log in.

NEVER depend on Google for anything critical. If you're unlucky you'll get completely screwed over, and you won't be able to do anything about it.
"Success" is to achieve the intended goal, without causing new problems that outweigh the benefit of reaching that goal.

Reaching the goal is not a moral measurement, it is all about efficiency. If you don't reach the goal, your efficiency is zero.
The moral question is what new problems are acceptable. That's where reasonable people can disagree.
Personalized to doesn't mean focused on; it means subjective and relative to the critic.

The "social purpose of the critiques is universal" is saying that, in opposition to the disparate and varied, personalized, nature of the specific critiques, their social purpose is all the same.

This universal purpose is saying "I felt uncomfortable ... might have to re-evaluate world view ... I'll upvote all the detractors".

> elevated personal impression of erudition

This is ironic, I have to say.

Anyhow, I found it easy to read the comment. It does flow a bit like stream of consciousness, but it's comprehensible, probably in part because I agree with a good amount of it. You shouldn't expect polished prose in comment forums on the interwebs.

If you felt that it talked down to you (personalized), then perhaps evaluate the social purpose of your own comment (did you feel uncomfortable? I got the impression you did).
Mr Beast videos do single digit millions in revenue per video, and he operates on razor thin margins re-investing everything. Youtube does $8.5Bn a quarter in revenue. For startups the target is the Youtube exit, not the Mr Beast exit. In fact, whilst Mr Beast is obviously doing a great job and making tonnes of money it's not clear if he even ever could exit. What Mr Beast is doing is incredibly successful, but it's not the silicon valley start up model.

That doesn't follow. A non sequitur isn't "two or more ideas per sentence".
At work. It's a bit of a open secret that you're not expected to fill 100% of your work time with work.

I was scolded quite a bit for not padding estimates early on. I argued that I'd be wasting time if I didn't pad. But the damage from a missed estimate is much worse, and if I had extra time I was expected to read a book, watch a movie, play Dota or something.

As it is, the weekly sprint plan is what you can get done by Wednesday. Silently add one non-scheduled item to cater for Parkinson's Law. If you're done for the week, then feel free to read books or refactor or something.
The failure mode of Agile is when the company says "we're going agile" but refuses to adapt or let the team manage itself, as well as having a fixed deadline, scope and budget which have been decided outside the team. In other words, you still have the clueless project managers, but you have to cosplay "agile" within that.
>You can't have an employer offering a 20% bonus for keeping them alive. It's an insultingly low payoff or the crisis was a lie.

I've told my direct reports something similar. "Don't stress out about this. If it were a real problem, someone would have noticed 3 months ago when it broke / was never completed before [employee] left." Most of these crises are painfully fake.
G, a Statistical Myth (2007)
Datacenters require pretty constant 24/7 loads. You don’t get much difference at scale between 2pm and 2am. Maybe 10-20% at best.

It’s about the last place you want to start using intermittent power sources.

Chemical battery storage is simply not feasible today for such uses cases. If you go renewable your choice currently is to back that intermittent source with either coal or natural gas at nearly a 1:1 basis.

Nuclear starts looking pretty compelling for such use cases.

The dirty secret of renewables is that they are currently directly linked to natural gas peaker plants. This was obvious a decade ago, and still is just as true. My portfolio shows I was completely correct in this prediction.

Chemical storage at these tens to hundreds of megawatt scale is currently a pipe dream. Current deployments are measured in single digit hours of storage. Perhaps another decade will show things have changed, but I doubt it. Nuclear is currently the best battery tech we have available. Especially considering how greenwashed methane production has been.

And that’s not even getting into seasonal energy storage which we simply do not have any answers for short of hydro. Interconnections only work so long until you run out of other people’s coal or nuclear power sources.

I suppose you could redesign your facility to operate the emergency diesel backup generation on a regular basis but that’s even worse.

I’m very into solar and battery storage where it makes sense - even if not the most economical. I think anyone who can afford it should have a solar setup plus a few days worth of batteries installed at their place of residence. Focusing on datacenter power use is about the last thing we should be looking at after we optimize the rest. It’s like focusing on aviation as your priority for co2 reduction. Why go after the highest hanging fruit when so much low hanging fruit currently exists?
It's the best way to self-study math really.

I was previsouly trying using Susan Rigetti's "So You Want to Study Mathematics..." guide. It has been posted here a few times, but it's so easy to get lost in doing tons of problems that are too easy or too hard for your level, especially when you already know quite a bit of math, but there are some things that you never really mastered and some things you've forgotten, but you don't know what. Identifying those areas can be really hard, but MathAcademy helps you do it.

I don't really like their gamification system, somehow the way they deal XP points feel non-rewarding when I get points and it feels like I get punished when I answer something wrong, maybe that's just me, but the gamification of other online learning apps like Brilliant feel more rewarding, but those apps are just much less efficient and complete overall.

I also wish the mobile experience was a bit better. I need to keep the phone in landscape mode just to see the page. It would also be nice with an "on the go" feature that would show only problems that can be done mentally, to make it easier to do some 5 minute session on the go when you don't have pen and paper nearby.

It's really a must for anyone who wants to self-study math to fill in gaps, learn machine learning, physics or just for fun, especially if you want to master it and not just learn it on a superficial level.
Assuming the foreign judgement passes various criteria (e.g. not being repugnant to the constution) it's essentially treated as a contract to make the payment-- as if you had some agreement to pay the other party, and enforced as such.

Feedback I've heard ranges from "almost always" to "typically", but I've never seen actual stats on it. It's going to be pretty fact specific, so unless your case maps well to a common fact pattern any statistic may not be too useful.

It's common enough in any case that several state's passed laws to deal with foreign (particularly UK) defamation lawsuits, and then a federal law. So a specific kind of abuse of this process was common enough for a federal law on the subject.

Sadly it seems we lacked the foresight to realize that to the extent that many of these were false and malicious cases that the parties can just cook up some other grounds. So when Wright sued critics in Norway, the UK, and Antigua he did so on the basis of defamation, but when his target list included US persons he didn't use a defamation claim.

> If you're in the UK and I'm in the US and I sue you, it doesn't seem reasonable to expect you to have to travel here or to spend money on local representation to defend yourself.

So one of the reasons to deny domestication is that the foreign court didn't properly have jurisdiction over the subject matter. If I had no connection to the US then there wouldn't be a reasonable basis to claim the US court had jurisdiction over me.

But if you and I had some interaction then on the basis of that interaction I might have subjected myself to your jurisdiction. The internet has made it easy to arguably be subject to any jurisdiction anywhere in the world. If you look at some of the arguments in English courts (for example) on jurisdiction they like to emphasize e.g. that someone publishes in English documents which are available and read in the UK. There is a bar for jurisdiction, it's a real bar, but it's not necessarily a particularly high bar.

To complicate matters, summary judgements and other pre-trial judgements like jurisdiction are generally decided on a basis of assuming the claimant's facts are all true. This is a real problem with litigating with an unashamed liar who is primarily interested in damaging you with the process, since they can just make up whatever facts they need to keep the case going.

You don't have to convince me that the existing process is not good. I think it made more sense decades ago when it was much harder for an ordinary person to be arguably subject to arbitrary jurisdictions.

Aside, NY does have domestication rules too, though it does sound like they're somewhat better than the more common version. (e.g. safer to take a default judgement)-- though I haven't really looked into them.

Brilliant doesn't have spaced repetition, it has much less coverage and doesn't have enough exercises to let you really master subject, but it's an easy to use mobile app with nice visualizations that can give a conceptual understanding of many things. If MathAcademy and Brilliant covers the same topic, Brilliant may be more visually appealing and contain animations. Brilliant is nice for getting overview of many things, but doesn't really go that deep.

MathAcademy is great for learning new topics that you haven't studied before, provided they have a course in that subject.
I bought my Framework laptop and promptly moved to a country with a lesser species of human, if we were to use framework's logic, I assume. I mean, it wasn't until like last year they opened up deliveries to Taiwan, you know, the country where the thing is manufactured. Of course, europe, the US, you know, the countries with real people™, has had access to their marketplace since day one.

So, I've spent three years with a dying battery and bashed case, a warped screen shell, but I have no recourse. Honestly, it would have been better to buy an actual open source laptop that allows generic replacements, not one from their own store that, let's be real, will go kaput one day when the founder gets bored. The whole "diy serviceability" doesn't really square when you can't get your own parts.
>I'm not so sure about the spaced repetition side of things.

From what I could read, many studies have shown this is an effective technique. From my personal experience it only works if you understand what you are trying to remember. For example, trying to memorize some complicated formulas that you don't understand is doomed to fail.
I think that almost no one from the community has any hate for "Agile" as in the manifesto. Quite the opposite.

The problem is that the Agile that is pushed in the corporate world is nothing at all related to the spirit of the manifesto.

Management took over to keep control over developers.

So you have scrum, you have scrum masters, product owners, t-shirt sizes poker, ... All of that bringing more stress to devs than having empowered them to be trusted to deliver what the real client wants.

This is good advice, actually. If you can't perform simple things, how can you do complex ones?

>If one doesn’t like these trade-offs, look into technologies that don’t require them like hydrogen or electric. [...] just personal financial ones like range, weight and charge/fuel supply.

It's not just personal/financial. It's also raw capability of a diesel truck to get the particular type of jobs done.

A lot of the shops did the deletes on trucks that can tow 12000+ lbs. Think of trucks like Ford F-250, F-350, and beyond etc, towing landscaping equipment like a 10000 lb skidsteer on a 14000-lbs-rated trailer. Or hotshot truckers carrying random loads. Some non-commercial trucks (smaller than class 4) can tow up to 40000 lbs.

The Rivian and Cyber trucks only have max tow capacity up to 11000 to 12000 lbs. There isn't a comparable hydrogen/electric substitute that can do what the diesel pickup trucks can do. In contrast, there are realistic EV substitutes for diesel cars.

Those diesel delete shops were typically modifying high-towing-capacity trucks and not the smaller Volkswagon diesel passenger cars. Some truck owners were justifying the deletes because they believe the EGR/DPF/DEF was flawed and would lead to a ticking time bomb of expensive engine repairs down the road. (Cue up a bunch of anecdotes of how the "old diesel engines were reliable and bulletproof" compared to the "new diesel engines with all that EPA emissions crap requiring out-of-warranty repairs" )

I don't know enough about the engineering to know if they're correct or blowing it all out of proportion.

I reckon it can and I am about to give it a shot, myself. It sounds like a Duolingo sort of structure, which can be boiled down to "use it or lose it" which is not hard to support with compelling evidence. Say what one will about Duolingo, but my Spanish and German are passable because of it (no, I am not fluent, but I can get by in common situations). Ideally, MathAcademy will cultivate the same results.

Agreed, the state of discourse is really lacking.
The example omits the context around those <li>s but you can assume they're inside a <ul>. That's semantically valid html because </li> can be omitted.

But despite being valid and unambiguous for the parser, it can still lead to confusing problems for unsuspecting developers:

<ul>
<li>item1</li>
<li>item2<li>
<script id="this-script">
let ul = document.getElementById("this-script").parentElement;
console.log(ul.tagName); // prints "LI"
// *confused screams by the developer*
</script>
</ul>
