I dunno, consultancy does seem pretty lame. I get the impression it's like working for someone but not really working for them

I didn't know the details of this before lol. That sounds like a nightmare it's a wonder anything gets done...

I use python because its just so much easier to develop. I think for startups iteration speed is magnitudes more important than running efficiency of code

no way, is that actually possible?

You do it knowing that it could be a terrible financial decision, cost at least a year of your life minimum, and that 90 to 99% of new businesses fail. Or at least you should know that. But you do it anyways. So no, I think most don't

Does anybody have any ideas as to what opportunities might open up for lightweight start ups from the general trend of decreasing launch costs? I mean aside from the obvious ones such as starting a launch company or anything that requires a

Im not a cryptography expert but from what i've learnt about homomorphic encryption in my courses its nowhere close to being usable at reasonable speeds

What was the context behind this launch? Did they just luanch a grain silk just for kicks or something? That can't possibly be the new design for a rocket

I would tend to agree with this but there are also stories of successful non technical co-founders who managed to pull it off, although it could be selection bias. Airbnb is an obvious one but another example is DiDi in China. Their story w

The extra computational power requirement is still pretty large... The math behind it doesn't seem to be anything new, there's a reason why these solutions aren't very commonplace yet

How does this work with the insurance dynamics though? You say no insurance full stop, does that make the cost prohibitively high for some? I feel like insurance in a way is similar to a membership model for the patient in terms of cash flo

In the future they'll also come armed and ready to rock and roll like the trauma team in cyberpunk 2077. I'm only half joking, with privitized military now a real thing I can see this being an actual service for the super rich

I actually see shaw as a bit of a hero, since he basically made his money, said something along the lines of "finance is stupid", and then took all that money and started working on biochemical problems that actually solve real li

>I think the cyber security industry is at the stage where the web was 15-20 years ago, where a company would hire a "webmaster" who did all the web related stuff, rather than getting a combination of people in different roles

I feel like it's hard to teach cybersecurity formally. It deals with hacking and by nature the spirit of hacking is hard to teach. I have learnt cybersecurity as a hobby and have competed with our university team in some online well kn

I suppose the US's war on drugs should similarly be condemned then. All those poor drug lords in Mexico and them dealers are just trying to make a living

I'm going to ignore all the blatantly groundless anti China bias here and factually point out that control over Hong Kong was in fact taken over by the British after China lost the opium war, which was a war that was started because Ch

Nobody seems to be mentioning how the data is potentially more valuable then the ransom? If customer data is stored on their servers, the hacker potentially has the historical location data and identities of a lot of their customers now, wh

Honestly when it comes to international cultureral sensitivity, I don't feel the hacker news crowd is exactly the most woke. I quite often see statements like these that are completely oblivious to the actual reality in other countries

This seems like a huge issue and a major social/economic trend going forward... As a startup how do I take advantage of this?

I think there's selection bias for success stories of both young and middle aged founders. For middle aged founders, I feel like the ones that you hear about, i.e. having worked in the industry for a number of years before spotting a g
