Can someone edit the title of this to say “tornado cash“? As a one-time contributor to the python tornado web framework, I had a bit of a scare waking up to see this!

Agreed. Using a dongle is a terrible experience. I had to buy a few cause they kept breaking for me. The primary way I listen to music on my phone is while walking around with my p…

Or maybe it is a mixture of both? Are you sure they don’t have covert people in all the very same positions? Does the CIA have its own internal museums, mapmaking companies, archit…

I’m glad people are finally catching on to this. The CIA has their tentacles in pretty much all aspects of society, and it has been that way for years. They have even admitted this…

Thanks. Output is here if you have any ideas. https://gist.github.com/ccampbell/9a0118b0e3e607ec56a3a2cc59...

Yes, I agree, but it is a memory leak. It doesn’t START at 10GB. Also closing windows does not help much at all. To answer your question, I have a total of 73 windows open at the m…

I too have the problem with WindowServer although for me it seems to happen with just regular usage. I have not rebooted in 48 days, and currently it is using 10GB RAM (I have a Ma…

Misinformation? What do you mean? One of the strongest ones? You mean they didn’t lose a lot of money as a result of the collapse? That is exactly my point. They were financing the…

Gotta love when the Hacker News crowd sides with Wall Street kingpin Jamie Dimon just to own Bitcoin. This guy became a billionaire thanks to taxpayer subsidized bailouts after the…

> Sure, it's annoying that I'll need to use a VPN or change my DNS resolvers to use a pretty slick (and otherwise convenient) website archiver. You can alternatively look up the IP…

Actually a sensitive product is exactly where this does NOT make sense. No matter how good their security is with their cloud version it will still be less secure than having a vau…

I agree that running it on top of another ledger like ETH or BTC makes no sense. That said, the idea of trusting a central bank that is completely unaccountable to the public or ev…

The telescreen received and transmitted simultaneously. Any sound that Winston made, above the level of a very low whisper, would be picked up by it, moreover, so long as he remain…

> It’s really simple Have you ever written a stateless transcoder like this? Of course it can be done, but saying “you could simply encode those chunks” and “It’s really simple” is…

Yeah. I agree that is not great, but it also is legal language and says “might be less”, not a guarantee. The way I would probably do it is always refund the equivalent U.S. dollar…

This is a pretty terrible take. First of all it only applies to refunds. Second, if you are afraid of missing out on Bitcoin gains then DON’T BUY YOUR CAR USING BITCOIN. I have spe…

Shameless self promotion, but my testing library, Luna, supports testing Svelte components out of the box. https://craig.is/testing/code Full documentation on Github: https://githu…

“Trust the science” in the age of Covid is more or less a euphemism for “Fall in line and don’t question what the ’experts’ say”. When you look at what has happened to people who h…

> Do we reserve judgment on these topics just because someone sued someone else over them? No, but we also shouldn’t censor people for making those claims. It seems to be the attit…

But the point that Palantir will still have a big pool of money to play with regardless of who is in power is completely valid. Over 80% of Democrats (in both the House and Senate)…

This is the sad state of VC funding in this day and age. I can’t help but wonder if movie theaters could have exploited a similar loophole with MoviePass before they went bankrupt.…

And what exactly is the “mission” here? Overthrowing democratically elected governments in other countries? Assassinating foreign agents? Starting coups in other parts of the world…
