And you can think that, just like people can think you are racist for telling Indians what they can and can’t find reasonable about their own stereotypes. “I should hire some bottom of the barrel bootcamp graduates”. Bootcamp graduates in t

Your analogy does not hold water because there is not an existing stigma you’d be playing into if you had said that. Lack of sensitivity towards racism doesn’t excuse you from being racist. And it’s ok. Mistakes happen. I think all anyone i

These people are arguing with you over something so basic as common decency and acknowledgement of casual racism. Even here on HN, we are not immune to the density of the ego.

This is why I HN. Thank you for that clear account of the discovery, funny what a little curiosity can lead to. Not masking the names further makes me wonder if whoever actually implemented this may not have been aware of the repercussions.

I’ve had jobs where this has gone on for years at a time. I’ve also had jobs that this behavior would get noticed and called out after two sprints. It’s obvious, and either everyone is in on it or no one is. “In between” only comes from the

This is spot on, and I like that you don’t need hardware for it unlike opendime. Phone numbers are a bit scary though, prone to SIM takeover hacks and other insecurities. And you still have to ask for/have their phone number. I’d prefe

How can you claim that this is vulnerable to double spends when we haven’t even finished defining the system? Double spending is a symptom of a broken system. Let us at least figure out the system first so we can determine if it is broken.

I am not sure I buy into your statement here. I believe there is a way.

Very true - this is elaborated on in the rest of this thread. Basically, the holder would have to be locked out of the private key from creation of the wallet, and there would have to be trust placed in a centralized regulatory body to issu

by throwaway413 5y ago
Well said, I agree with that, although I do think there is a difference between trusting a central authority to maintain an opaque system vs merely being a regulatory figure maintaining a transparent system. If that’s even possible :) We ar

With Venmo, I still need to ask for their username. A two way transfer of information still has to occur. Same with current wallet-to-wallet transactions. Even if we are in the same app, I need to know your wallet username or address to sen

Let me clarify. Yes, you have to pay transaction fees when transferring money on the blockchain. I am proposing that no transaction would occur. Just like when you hand cash to someone, no external transfer needs to take place. You would es

Oh you’re totally correct here, that is definitely a pay cut against inflation - fortunately not the case for me, just expressing this opinion, thanks for your kindness there. I am indeed beating the dead horse here, but I guess what I’m tr

Sure, I agree with that, but you said: > So not only where they selling at 35k for a while, in real terms they still are. And I’m just saying no, because if they want to say they are still selling a $35k car, it needs to be priced $35k t

Hard disagree, I would rather have multiple clear and singular RCAs than any 5Y exercise that is >1 width. Too much context to follow to accurately drill into each cause per an RCA, from my experience. You end up looking for random cause

Just want to stop and say that I’m so happy to have stumbled across sillysaurus today. You helped me through a very hard time in my life a few years back, and I have thought about you often since then. Thank you. Glad to see you back here!
