I’ve found the disorganization of writing is actually a benefit. I have a remarkable and I put almost everything in a single organizational notebook. There’s no pressure to do things right, no fretting about space or making clean shapes, ju

Returning to the job market sounds a bit defeatist. I’d take a different route and just look for some contracted work or consulting through your network. Go above and beyond with it and try to spin it to a full time role.

Presumably they aren’t taking photographs of the passport and viewing them at some later date from personal computers.

Just last month I had a DJ company ask for an ID and selfie for a $200 software purchase. Maybe these things are designed for KYC’ing crypto and buying alcohol but it’s definitely a trend to apply this process broadly. All for the fear of g

I really despise this trend of uploading your ID and a selfie for verification. I know it makes sense in some legal frameworks, but beyond that I find it invasive and risky (and rude.)

Well, not necessarily yourself, but through an entity that would not gossip the pending transaction. If it paid well any pool or mining farm could include it. A high standard transaction fee would not help.

There’s no way to guarantee absolutely, but you could wait to announce until you got lucky with a couple consecutive blocks if you had a lot of hashpower (pool operators). It would be an expensive endeavor since it involves throwing away so

It’s possible to skip the mempool, by including it directly in a block, giving no time to a QC attacker. Not worth it right now, but if QC was known to exist it could be done.

sounds like a bug, is there a reason to think it’s intentional?

Typically “movie” hallucinations like seeing elephants in the room or having strange people visit you or seeing bugs all over you are more typical of deleriants like diphenhydramine or datura, although high dose tryptamines can be so strong

I doubt they could 51% Bitcoin with any sort of haste. Perhaps with a few year plan. Simply put it’s a procurement issue. There are limited ASICS and they are distributed among many operators, mostly foreign. There aren’t massive ASIC stock

I bring a fixed blade knife hiking. Can split wood in a pinch. Not nearly as heavy as a ka-bar, though. Your point still stands, though. I had a military pack and couldn’t believe how heavy it was even when empty. Ultralight hiking gear is

I agree consumers are misled but Apple is a poor example here. I know the App Store fee is a popular topic right now but they are one of the few companies making a consumer product that is bounds ahead of military or industrial versions.

The drives are reportedly destroyed from the process relatively rapidly. So no, I’d probably not plan to be able to resell drives on eBay later.

Legend of the 10 Elemental Masters is a masterpiece, never read anything remotely like it.

Why are arguments of this form so pervasive? Cryptocurrency is bad and must be banned because ransomware. Encryption is bad because pedos, let’s ban Tor and Signal. We need a permanent surveillance state and forfeit most of our rights to pr

Oil industry workers don’t seem to carry much clout, kind of a dirty job with a lot of physical labor, but pays quite well and has for a while. Truckers can still make an upper middle class salary, especially if they own their truck or focu

Perhaps they did invest time, but I’m not convinced that should give them the right to place a restriction on others. If I have an empty hard drive and copy someone’s mp3 a thousand times on it, without permission, what is really lost? Have

I feel like this is a rhetorical question, but I’m not very confident that they should when it comes to data. It’s definitely less clear cut than physical ownership in my opinion. Abstractly it seems wrong to limit people from certain bit a

The Sia team has let down customers for other tangential projects, and Sia has weaker guarantees than Filecoin. It’s been out a long time now and they have failed to address some core scaling and redundancy concerns. I wouldn’t say it’s bad

So could anyone have saved this guy by delivering enough fuel to get to port? I wonder what the costs would have been.

I’ve read a few of his other entries from when they were shared here. It’s interesting that someone can have such a different baseline view on reality than I (for example, the opening statement that humanity will just end itself in a couple

That’s a good point, I could see it happening, even if it wasn’t social - merely an association with “green” apps being more buggy and annoying to use. I don’t care for iMessage particularly but I do know when it’s blue bubbles I have a lot

Apps in the Apple App Store must meet usability and standardization guidelines, and are deeply integrated into the OS. As a simple example that came up recently, all the payments on the phone go through Apple, so the payment process is the

I think it would still poison the “Apple experience” to have many AppStores all competing with their own closed ecosystems. The Apple Experience of not being able to install some apps sucks, but its always been easy for me to help someone w

While that is the aim, I don’t find it convincing. Sure, the average person can mine, but the hashrate will be small compared to professionals with tens of thousands of units, purchased at special rates for bulk, with matching low energy ra

A carton would be challenging. As a dumb smoking teenager I competed to smoke a whole pack and even then it made me quite nauseous. Took about 5 or 6 cigarettes back to back.

Did they not work out? I see people boosting servers and people with paid accounts very often. It seems they had a market willing to pay.

How about good old working for it. I’ve received payment in Bitcoin and paid employees in cryptocurrency. The thing about fungible assets is that they are neutral money. They aren’t “blood money”, they are simply blind to whatever they are
