Those credits would become liabilities. By taking them on, Binance would go from solvent to insolvent, using the strict definition of "assets < liabilities". Goodwill alone won't bring the money back.

After reading this post, I have another tip - instead of adding `alias.pr` to your gitconfig, you can create a shell script called `git-pr`. Then you can write readable code instead of having to sprinkle extra quotes and backslashes everywh

In 2019, FTX tried to attack Binance's futures platform. CZ tweeted about it then: https://twitter.com/cz_binance/status/1173418810918916096 Instead of retaliating, he generously invested in their company. Th

Can someone explain why FTX created their own token in the first place? Was it just a way to raise money/distribute equity without dealing with stock market regulations?

Some fun insider trading there. FTT started climbing at 16:00 UTC, but the Binance-FTX deal wasn't announced until 16:09 UTC

There are solutions, but on some level this is no different from telling Windows users to just tweak some registry keys. It all leads to the same place.

The last 6-ish characters are a checksum. It would be very computationally intensive to generate a similar-looking address without changing the checksum, though of course not impossible.

This particular clipboard attack has been part of malware for at least 5 years, maybe 10. But I haven't heard of it being distributed via a package manager until now.

So you're avoiding a technology because of unrelated teenagers' internet comments. Is that any more useful than adopting a technology because of unrelated teenagers' internet comments?

Definitely. Brand name lookalikes are a longstanding tradition in media. See: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BlandNameProduct - dozens of subpages and hundreds of examples. If he took this to cou

A language with a GC and a green thread runtime can perhaps replace C in specific applications, but I definitely wouldn't call it a spiritual successor to C. There's way too much extra stuff between you and the CPU. Odin and Zig

To that first list you could add Kagi, who also runs their own index EDIT: Tough crowd, did Kagi get cancelled or something while I wasn't looking?

I'd love to know for sure whether this can interoperate with the existing Lightning ecosystem. The paper makes one reference to this in section 6.2.1, but it's unclear to me how it would work, since the rest of the paper describes

Not a relevant comparison and makes me wonder why I even comment here - phones cannot be used as weapons during a shooting - guns don't require a monthly subscription to use bullets not approved by the manufacturer etc

I certainly think it tells us something about RH. You don't see Vanguard or Fidelity losing a third of their userbase in a year.

Does anyone have any insight about how to coordinate this kind of change to a large project? This kind of change touches literally every file, so every branch will have merge conflicts. The best idea I can think of is to announce the date a

I wish they had broken down that survey question further to find out _how many_ spaces the highest paid developers use. Then I could finally have a data-driven answer to put in my prettier config!

You'll never get order-of-magnitude speedups from things like LTO, but 4% here and 4% there can really add up over time. In a world where most software keeps getting slower, I'm always glad to see people focusing on performance.

I mean, you're not wrong, but I was more replying to the "I'd do just that" sentence which seems to imply the scorched earth approach is a good thing. We don't need people going around emulating Musk.

The problem of course is not annoying the underperformers, but you want to avoid annoying the valuable engineers who get things done and keep the company running. There's plenty of demand for engineers -- if they want, they could find

Zig puts the whole project into a single giant compilation unit. This has some benefits, but one of the drawbacks as you note is memory usage for larger projects.

That can't be the whole story. If we assume the drive can write 500MB/s (conservative), and an OS install takes up 50GB of space (conservative), it should take less than 2 minutes to write the partition. Where does the other 58 mi

The issue raised is not about video codecs, but about browsers. Apple is using their market position to artificially prevent Safari from being competed against by other vendors—that is classic antitrust behavior. For comparison, imagine Mic
