So it's effectively a gimmick. "Pay with bitcoin, and if u are in profit, it's gonna cost you a 20-35% extra!"

Does sending Bitcoin to the payment processor count as a taxable event for you since the bitcoin will be sold for dollars? If not, that's a big deal.

I see. So it can operate in-process? Could in theory be much faster than nginx out-of-process model.

How does this compare to nginx? Does it support websockets? I have an asp.net core websocket based app that need to support hundred of thousands concurrent websockets connection. I ll be taking a look at this because I don't wanna expo

I agree with you. I personally support the spirit of the protest (i.e. the vaccines should be optional for most jobs and the vaccine mandate should be relaxed) but not the tools they are using, in particular blocking a vital bridge and the

Hacking is one thing. I understand the technical thrill. But blackmail and fraud? That's a human-to-human interaction, not human-to-machine. Once a person cross that line where you are harming another person at that level, there is no

In a way, what's considered "tech" is successful innovation that hasn't been commoditized yet. Telecoms are not considered tech anymore, and so is large scale agriculture. In this view, investing in tech is a sustainable

Exactly, survivorship bias. I find C# to be a beautiful and elegant language. And if you wanna see what .net is capable of, you have to look at core projects, asp.net, entity framework, ml.net, ... Not what random businesses and their poor

It has an intrinsic value that can easily be explained. You absolutely need it for many uses (electronics, medical devices, jewelry in practice, ...). So there is always gonna be a buyer at a non-zero price. Bitcoin, on the other hand, has

Same crash could have happened with any car with modern driver assists but it happens predominantly to Tesla drivers due to the way the "self-driving" feature was marketed to them. I think Tesla is partially liable for every crash

I have no idea where Forbes reputation comes from. Is it because they were the first to track the richest 100 people? Big brand name, little backing afaik.

Can Cloudflare protect from websocket abuse? For example, someone establishing thousands of web sockets and sending a lot of data through them.

I made an NFT collection and they can definitely be changed :) The only part that can't be changed is the portion written on the blockchain which is, for most collections, only the token number. So yeah, I can't change the fact th

"in any project that's meant to grow and last" I specified what I am talking about. Weekend projects are not even a contention point. People code them in Brainfuck and we all have a laugh about it. It's the stuff that en

I don't consider myself very opiniated on tech. But if there is one thing I am adamant about is that strongly typed languages are a must in any project that's meant to grow and last. It's a must to explore, understand and ref

It took a recession to tame every inflation above 5% in history (except one time in 1950). We are just waiting for election to be over. Fed doesn't wanna "meddle".

Where airliners with passengers land and take off? I doubt Europeans are that irresponsible.

Why would they do that? They will change policy anyway if the TLD keeps getting popular. You gotta see things for what they are headed not for what they are.

The setup makes it impractical. You would need a very powerful computer to run it in real time. And it won't tell you about what u can't see. You would need to do the same for audio and game mechanics. Check what a top player can

The blockchain is public. If the hacker(s) try that, it would be know and the funds will tracked as they move across coins and accounts . They could use a mixer to launder the funds but that may make it even harder to cash out because excha

That works with the current banking system as well. That's what made the Nigerian scams so successful.
