Hmm. I haven't coded that much in a while, however I went back and refactored fixme's all the time, whenever it made sense and I had to build something on top of the poorly structured code that would bake in the defect. That said,

FTX was widely considered to be low risk amount crypto investors. Clearly incorrectly, which has spooked investors since they now don't trust anyone.

Most users will have stored their deposit addresses in other exchanges and wallets rather than look them up and enter them each time.

It’s not a contradiction. It’s easy to have illiquid funds. For example cold storage or locked funds.

Check out TIHKAL and PIHKAL by the Shulgins.

Umm, they published many books about it, TIKHAL and PIKHAL by the Shulgins being the most famous.

Back in the day, researchers would just try the drugs instead of feeding them to mice for 20 years. Things moved a lot faster that way.

Somebody got hurt so the space race is unsafe… We should probably halt agriculture and cancel automobiles also. Also all injuries need a press release.

Right, but, don’t they want to sell their product against SAP? They would learn so much and then be dogfooding. I’m not surprised Microsoft hasn’t done this, because Microsoft. Microsoft doesn’t build products for users it builds products

The term airplane mode will persist as an anachronism forever. Some day we will have to explain to our grandchildren why disabling networks has anything to do with airplanes.

In my poker heyday, I made similar call downs in big games when I read someone for a straight draw and had a backup flush draw as she did. If you know they are going to bluff if they miss, it's very profitable and also maddeningly tilt

Seems like a pretty easy solution would be to have some games played without third party viewers in real time.

Seems like an almost unsolvable problem long term as in online poker.

For the record, have you actually eaten at Olive Garden recently? Their food is actually pretty fantastic. Some of the best Chicken Parm. Definitely better than Teams. Please don’t insult Olive Garden like this.

You’re conflating everyone in a massive group. Americans want abortion rights then they pass laws against abortion. Can’t make this up! Developers want open source then they make closed source products. Can’t make this up!

Interesting timing given the recent global launch of MobileCoin in Signal to allow for private payments. https://www.wired.com/story/signal-mobilecoin-cryptocurrency... Hopefully this is a positive for the future of th

They didn’t look at DHM which is in most hangover remedies and imo the most effective.

Why is there human attention focused on this at this point in time?

Why would anyone listen to the creator of a simple fork of Bitcoin as an art project? The guy did something interesting and fun. He’s not a though leader in crypto. That said most of crypto is a scam, just like most of dotcom 1.0 in 2000 wa

So <any chars>@<any chars> seems beyond good enough. There is no benefit to validating beyond that for almost all cases.

SGX is only used for an extra layer of privacy, beyond what any other currency offers. SGX is not used for the security of the currency. This criticism has been answered countless times.

Consensual financial support based on social expectation seems a lot less shitty to me than non-consensual financial support based on legal recourse.

I used Scala and loved it for a period, back in the Scala Lift days. It’s a beautiful language in many ways, that is also just too bloated with complex features that enable a small amount of brevity at the expense of a huge amount of cognit

Maybe less likely than out in startup land where piecing many tools together? And at least everything works well together.

Maybe this is ok, because AWS is so large, competition of technologies is good and probably necessary for long term survival.

Yet another meta Amazon Web Service with vaguely overlapping features. I think managing AWS will be a major application of early almost-general AI, because it is beyond human comprehension.

Seems like backward compatibility completely rules this out. Apple can provide tools and clear migration paths because the chips are only used in their systems. Intel chips are used everywhere, and Intel has no visibility.
