I think the endgame is self driving vehicles which would hopefully bring the price down.

Young men get hit pretty hard on insurance prices. It was looking like 100$ per month for me and was enough to push a car payment into the monthly expense range I didn't care to have. I work from home though, so I don't drive a lo

Did Manticore lead to a focus on ease of use? Not sure I've seen angr described as user friendly before.

Depending on the hash, an attacker would look for collisions to get something running that could then change settings or launch other things. Failing that, you would look for flaws in the system or vulnerabilities in the OS in order to bypa

I want this model too. Unfortunately, credit card processing fees will eat most of that. We need a new payment infrastructure that's low fee and enables small digital purchases.

Yes, I did spend time writing a comment about a topic I care about. I do not want to spend time circumventing a site's desired mode of operation for an article I am only moderately interested in. >so we could waste more time that th

I've gotten downvoted for mentioning paywalls as well. I think this is a very valid call out though. While there are workarounds, I don't want to spend more than 2 seconds opening an article (most the time it isn't worth goin

It's hard as hell to befriend anyone. I probably have superficial conversations with 100 people before I find someone I connect with on a friendship level. I don't know if it is because people in this industry (myself included) mo

>why do people express the value of bitcoin in a fiat currency (like USD)? Mostly because businesses do accounting and pay taxes in usd, so bitcoin is just used as a pass through gimmick to make sales. There is no path to the price stabi

This never made sense to me either. Humans have been so good at hunting and killing entire species. I think we could come up with some very creative ways to annihilate a brain dead horde.

I want to build this payment system for the US so badly. I think all the major players are distracted by losing money on P2P transfers.

I specifically did not follow celebs. My tweets would generally get 1 or 2 likes, maybe about 60 impressions, and the occasional reply from one of a few friends. I would still end up seeing celeb accounts through the your friend follows and

I realize that activity and content are what media sites need, but the publish / subscribe model that celebrity accounts reinforce is the antithesis of anything social. I shutdown my Twitter because there is near zero interaction on th

I've used red shift apps, cut out sugar and caffeine, got controllable lights that follow a day night cycle. I still stay up late. The last thing I can figure is back lit screens, but that is a bit harder for me to live without.

This is very similar to what happens to Daoism. You have this rich esoteric tradition, a monastic and religious tradition, and people in the west labeling it a philosophy. Since I practice esoteric Daoist meditation I'm interested in o

Really? I absolutely will not pay 8$ a month to read the occasional NYT article. I will not pay 4$ per episode of TV shows I watch (I have tried this multiple times and it sucks). I would absolutely pay 5 to 25 cents to read an article. I w

Monetization is easily possible, we just need a reliable way to transfer small amounts of money electronically at a low fee. Right now the large credit card players have a stranglehold on digital transactions, we just need something new tha

CSS Grid Changes Everything - https://youtu.be/7kVeCqQCxlk The speaker is good but I think I like it just because it fixes the relationship between HTML and CSS.

Unfortunately there is a ton of regulation around any sort of electronic payments. In the US there are federal regulations as well as individual state licenses. If it is possible, anonymity will not be a feature.

I strongly disagree that Cambridge Analytica has done more damage than advertising. The leading causes of death in the US are preventable. Companies are pumping out disinformation to get people to consume things that are killing them, as we

Second vote for libp2p. It looks very mature and generic enough to build whatever off of it. It has implementations in js and go. If you end up rolling your own, I found js to have the most building blocks (pmp and upnp libraries).

Cutting out gluten really changed my life. I went through a phase where I was only eating every other day because I felt so shitty when I did eat. When you end up with a disease like this it really exposes our blind spots in medicine. I eve
