What exactly would they bring though? Anything inside the sub could not be dropped off anywhere. Maybe they could have collected research data to sell to certain scientific institutes, but that doesn't sound like it would recoup much o

Most companies don't let you interview more than once per year or once every six months, so if he/she has been rejected three times, I would expect their earliest interview to be over 1.5 years ago

I would not say it is correct to call BTC deflationary. It is simply not inflationary after the final halving. Since USD is highly inflationary then BTC is "deflationary" w.r.t $1, but the supply of BTC does not shrink. You could

That is absolutely disgraceful. I have been furious after much smaller things like being told an interview will be system design when it was actually a LeetCode style interview. Can't imagine how that must have felt.

Couldn't you trivially say zero is in "the middle" of any even split? 2 + 0 + 2 = 4? Edit: perhaps you meant one is in the middle?

I'm assuming based on the demo video that the private key is encrypted via the "CVC" code. Not great security but enough that someone would need at least a little while to brute force. Perhaps a solution where you only load a

This is interesting, though ultimately the private key is ostensibly only protected by a pin code of a few digits. At the end of the day that might be ok since no one would reasonably carry a large amount of cash in their wallet. Perhaps on

There's a video. It would appear there is an app on your phone which contains public wallet information, but then this NFC card contains your wallet private key. The card is encrypted with a short pin code. If you want to make a tx you

I mostly agree with your point but I would say the exception is when the success of the company is closely tied to their security practices or their security features are their business. Okta being a good example, when it took a 10% drop

What's particularly astounding about the case of FTX is that it was rolling in cash (unlike many startups), and yet never cared enough to throw money at hiring tons of security-minded staff and engineers

I'm not sure if it started this way, but I mostly breathe through my mouth at night due to significant congestion in my nasal passage. If I use a nasal rinse or flonase it helps but if I'm not diligent it regresses immediately.

The screenshot you posted is the same format as review prompts for every app I've seen one on. It's literally just "Enjoying <app name>?". Sure, they could go the extra mile to disambiguate for those that aren'
