It also acts as a pseudo-internet archive. The original images may not be easily found on the internet anymore, but Pinterest still has them scraped with broken clickthrough links. Which can be both useful and maddening.

If you talk to any security expert they will tell you just how much harder being blue team is than red. The situation really is one sided. Everything is hackable especially given essentially unlimited resources and the blessing of a governm

I’m curious how the XRP network itself is dealing with it. There are a lot of Ripple gateways, like Bitstamp, with long issued IOUs accessible in the Ripple network. Since one can find a route to swap for XRP it’s sort of an exchange, and n

Should the celebs worry? Probably not. Should the company worry? Yes, they’ll have a name for that surgeon who leaks your medical documents and doesn’t really care enough to pay to keep your privacy. There are other good surgeons out there,

People are confused then, perhaps Brave needs to make its marketing clearer. It was born from cryptocurrency, to give utility to BAT. The entire goal is to monetize your attention to profit from ads and the mechanism is their cryptocurrency

It’s just money. You can come back from any loss. Breathe and find a way to accept it and move on. Reflect later on how you can do better in the future. XRP was entirely based on compliance and corporate control. It represents the bet that

Isn’t this kind of the point of Brave? I don’t buy into BAT but Brave has always been a tool to popularize BAT. Why are these people using Brave?

Without going into the details too much, the person held the founders (us) responsible for their financial loss. They made some anonymous death threats online first but we didn’t take it very seriously. I’m sure judges and politicians are a

I had a disgruntled ex-customer show up at my place when a startup went under. It wasn’t violent but certainly felt like it could have been. You don’t need to be working on secret deadly software for powerful entities.

Is a $500 anything really a flex for execs? They could be wearing an Audemars Piguet and I wouldn’t think anything of it.

While I do appreciate my AirPods, especially for noise cancelation/pass-through modes, the possibility of dropping them or having them fall out while running does weigh on me. I still love wired headphones too, especially because I nev

People in this thread seem to be justifying it since the film industry reportedly does more testing. I don’t know if I really believe it’s better (actors take flights and likely don’t wear masks for filming, lots of catered food, tests aren

It’s true, but hardly limited to this subthread. While I disagree with most of HN about cryptocurrency and economics, the discussions are significantly more considerate and studied than anything I’ve come across in my daily life. Even socie

These two have been an inspiration for me and helped revive my interest in software after getting burnt out in industry. You can work on small, personally interesting things and just live minimally.

I don’t need to stimulate it and in fact can’t seem to turn it off. I guess it’s a blessing but the downside is that it seems much harder for me to commit long term, compared to others, as I get drawn to some new grand idea.

Facebook built it’s business on tracking users. It seems that’s solely their choice, only they reap the rewards and suffer the consequences of that choice. If users are fine with it the impact shouldn’t be horrible. If they aren’t, well, wh

People treating it as a full time job are suffering because it wasn’t meant to be a full time job. And they are clogging the system because there are often not enough rides for all the drivers. The biggest complaint I hear from drivers is a

I’ll add one doesn’t have to be a centrist by any means to choose intellect over tribalism. The “left”, the “right”, and the “none of the above” can all achieve it too if they spend less time on media driven depictions and more on deeply ex

To be fair, they probably can anyways, since the site willingly handed over their keys to Cloudflare, or rely on some Google CDN, host on EC2, etc. It’s the second or third tier nation state actors that you can really make a difference with

Every case is different, but the malware authors are often willing to share the decryption tools with Coveware for vetting, even before payment is negotiated for the keys. The hackers have no part in the decryption process. They could very
