The worst thing about this is the idea that Tesla has the power to change whatever configuration they want on your car, rendering it totally unusable. Whether 90 or 60 was desired, such changes shouldn't have been able to be done remot

The biggest challenge with making a search engine is to combat adversarial SEO. It's an issue that's very easy to be overlooked when you are small, but at Google scale, your enemies have billions of dollars to make from your visit

The thing is you have to sell it sooner or later or you won't make a profit. If you sell it to such a price that it's significantly lower than people expect it to be, someone will buy it so they can be sold at a higher price later

That would leak your IP nevertheless. People can figure out that you're serving a specific website by inspecting your certificate on handshake without actually connecting.

The original meaning for "staking" is that, for PoS networks, you put some coins, say ETH, to run a network validator, who secure the network by producing valid blocks, and in return you get a profit in that same coin (the network

You can implement your own DNS server that CNAMEs to Cloudflare and falls back to origin IP when there is a problem with Cloudflare. I think a downstream Cloudflare provider could provide such services if they desire.

GPUs are being used to mine ETH, not BTC. Hashrate by GPU cards on BTC is tiny compared to ASIC. It takes literally 1000x more power and 1000x the cost at the same hashrate.

Why not sell the coins? The market is big enough. I can't see why someone would mine coins without selling them as they are mined, otherwise you don't realize your profits. When there is enough cheap dollar in the market, there wo

When you are part of a company or some entity, the risk is smaller since the credit goes to your company rather than yourself. When you work for yourself that's not the case.

That is the case with stablecoins. Stablecoins are the most boring thing in crypto and few people really use it for payments.

That's exactly the case, and I would consider a price below $0.999 or a price above $1.001 to be a depeg. It's just that few people cared enough about such a tiny fee so Tether can earn $2m out of every $1b minted. At its worst ti

Unfortunately there is no decentralized exchange for BTC. There is no smart contracts on BTC so you have to somehow bridge it to something like Ethereum before you can swap it. And to bridge it you have to rely on some centralized party, su

A practical example that counts instructions is EVM. Gas usage is counted deterministically to limit computation overhead, and smart contracts are designed to optimize away every unit of gas since they cost real money.

Would it be possible to do something like Rust+Go where you integrate Go code natively into Rust? So Go pointers become `GoPtr<T>` where `GoPtr<T>: Copy + GC` etc. Then all Go structs implement `GoStruct` which would have a stat
