My guess: Money Laundering. You could certainly pay less than ~$20,000 in Stripe/CC fees to move $1M if your motives were on the up and up. Especially if you were doing it regularly.

If you have the computing power to brute force sha256 then there are few security precautions a user can take against you. That opens up forging SSL certificates, signing Debian packages, and a whole slew of other things that you could pull

By commenting that you are European, are you trying to stay out of the US hosting megalith entirely? Fastmail has been a great provider for me but, despite being Australian, I believe they are US hosted.

Sounds like you have a good incentive to spin up a domain and start transitioning away from Google.

If you have your own domain name for your email, you can point it at any host's servers. Google in the case of Gsuite or Fastmail or Pobox or anyone else. If you have regular backups, all you have to do is change a DNS record to switch

Your OS hasnt received a security patch in 3 years. Your iTerm hasn't been updated in 2 years. I wouldn't worry so much about iTerm and would start working harder on those issues that are preventing you from updating.

That one is just factually incorrect and a good correction. He was not a cofounder in ebay. He just sold Paypal to them about 7 years after ebay was founded.

Who do you suggest does have the resources? Bitwarden is essentially the work of one person[0]. Are you suggesting that we only rely on Apple Keychain and Chrome password sync due to their MegaCorp backing? 0: https://github.com&

That's not the argument they made. I do not know that there is no one out there in the world who has a key to my house. Even if there was and someone found that key on a city street they would likely not be able to figure out which hou

This can already be done in the "home automation" side of the shortcuts / home app. My own house lights up whenever my wife or I come home after dark and goes dark again when we leave.

"...with whom I was..." Is that grammatically correct? It appears to be, but wow does it ring strangely in my ear.

I understand the desire for a site like this from a job seeker's perspective (no CS degree here either), but what is the incentive for the employer? Are these no-CS job hunters not on every other site? As a job poster just put "No

How far do you live from the seller? Shipping prices can vary widely for items of significant size. It is easy for a giant like Amazon to negotiate shipping terms that they can amortize over a vast amount of sales, but that is not true for

Your corporate network is using network address translation (NAT) to map an external address, shown on icanhazip.com, to a local network address, shown in ipconfig. You likely share this external address with many other users and mapping se

Perhaps you need to grow your bubble a bit. I would say her Nobel (or many other awards[0]) is a greater indication of the reverence given to her than the fact that you have not heard of her. 0: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki
