Crypto can technically implement privacy and anonymity in a way that regulators cannot prevent. Now what do we do about it? Also, Ethereum could adopt privacy by default some day, …

I think this case is a pretty clear example of why. The regulators are supposed to be protecting who from what exactly? And at whose expense? So far I've seen two lines of reasonin…

I think this is exactly the kind of privacy you can defend in court. The reason we don't have privacy is because technology has been centralized and it's easy to pressure providers…

If you're concerned about "work life balance", you're probably the rich that would be eaten.

Does anyone know what depression is? You don't take a blood test or get a brain scan or anything like that. Instead, you do this: https://www.psychiatry.org/psychiatrists/practice/…

I think the original article painted it pretty well. If you could disappear and nobody would notice, you probably aren't part of a community. Shared interests and activities defini…

Non-incel here (I swear, ignore the username) who read your post and some of the accompanying thread. Valid feelings, a little cringey, I hope you figure yourself out, but that's n…

We might have trains ! All the fascist stuff is pretty bad -- nationalism, strongman leaders, isolating an "other" with violence, grifters selling out the people's interests to cor…

I don't think non-Americans appreciate the complexity here. To anyone unfamiliar with our health care system for typical employees: Once a year, most companies have a "benefits tra…

This is the n'th tech company today that's made an announcement similar to this. Even Disney is going to transport workers to abortion-legal states as needed as "health benefit". I…

You can confirm it's non-commercial and they let you keep it for free... for now. They made the change fairly late in the process, and supposedly there was a way to undo the paid m…

Honestly though, it's not "fuck Congress", it's "fuck the electorate". One of the great ironies about the rise of corporate fascism in the US is that the democracy does function on…

> Japanese people are just Asian English people. That's hilarious. I don't know many English or Japanese people, but all of my stereotypes of both have way more overlap than I thou…

I love TE's stuff and I've always thought it was a huge miss that they don't opensource everything. The new OP-1 looks great and so does the TX-6, but I'm not buying either knowing…

I think you've missed the point entirely. Practically, there are a ton of ways to turn 500,000 EUR into "anonymous" crypto, depending on what you mean by "anonymous". You can use a…

I can't believe I've never come across this before.

Wireguard gives you an interface like any other network interface. You manage the traffic the same way you would manage a physical network. That's the whole point. The actual compl…

> As an inevitable crash occurs, many of the swindles and alleged swindles are coming to light. Yeah, bubbles make overvalued prices. Crashes occur. Losers fail. Winners gain bigge…

Serious question for HN: How do we replace eBay with a reliable, sensibly run public service? It's extremely disheartening that it's now 2022 and we haven't figured out a way to re…

Any of them work, and it probably depends how deep you're in. If you can't fall asleep without a drink, xanax would be a good choice. If you need a drink in your hand all day, I'd …

> With uart output. Not super familiar with hardware hacking. Does this essentially mean you plug in the write wires, run minicom, and get a terminal with a shell?

Pedantic, but: from the device's point of view, it's always a "pull". You can't "push" to something that's not publicly addressable. From your app's point of view, you receive a "p…

Sure. RSS is a neat standard, but if you're writing your own app, you might as well use a custom JSON payload that's exactly what you need. If you use RSS but never actually use an…
