What exactly would they bring though? Anything inside the sub could not be dropped off anywhere. Maybe they could have collected research data to sell to certain scientific institutes, but that doesn't sound like it would recoup much of the costs

Can someone explain like I'm 5 why, in theory, the earth's rotation about its own axis could not be stopped?

This seemed like the obvious next step for Reddit. Not sure why anyone would be surprised. Though the obvious result of this is not Reddit will have to actually pay people to moderate these subs (unless there suddenly becomes an abundance of mod volunteers who do not care about the third party app debacle)

I would add frozenset as the other immutable collection. The other points are well taken though

Most companies don't let you interview more than once per year or once every six months, so if he/she has been rejected three times, I would expect their earliest interview to be over 1.5 years ago

I would not say it is correct to call BTC deflationary. It is simply not inflationary after the final halving. Since USD is highly inflationary then BTC is "deflationary" w.r.t $1, but the supply of BTC does not shrink.

You could argue about people losing their private keys being deflationary, but that's still different from blockchains like Ethereum whose currency is literally burned in small amounts during block creations (and therefore has the chance to be truly deflationary at times).

Aside from that your other points are valid.

I would add MSFT due to their exposure to OpenAI and their very successful previous and upcoming integrations (GH Co-Pilot, Bing revamp, upcoming Excel Co-Pilot etc.)

>16 weeks severance per year of tenure.

I know this sounds insensitive but I am slightly envious

Edit: am dumbass. plus one week per year of tenure as corrected below. Still not bad IMO

That is absolutely disgraceful. I have been furious after much smaller things like being told an interview will be system design when it was actually a LeetCode style interview. Can't imagine how that must have felt.

Couldn't you trivially say zero is in "the middle" of any even split? 2 + 0 + 2 = 4?

Edit: perhaps you meant one is in the middle?

I'm assuming based on the demo video that the private key is encrypted via the "CVC" code. Not great security but enough that someone would need at least a little while to brute force. Perhaps a solution where you only load a little cash onto it

This is interesting, though ultimately the private key is ostensibly only protected by a pin code of a few digits. At the end of the day that might be ok since no one would reasonably carry a large amount of cash in their wallet. Perhaps one would only load small amounts to their corresponding BTC wallet for the card.

There's a video. It would appear there is an app on your phone which contains public wallet information, but then this NFC card contains your wallet private key. The card is encrypted with a short pin code. If you want to make a tx you have to use phone app and tap card to phone to sign the tx (after typing in the PIN to decrypt key)

I would say this is more analogous to a debit card

I mostly agree with your point but I would say the exception is when the success of the company is closely tied to their security practices or their security features are their business. Okta being a good example, when it took a 10% drop after the breach last year.

Honestly, not a bad defense I suppose! That's pretty funny

What's particularly astounding about the case of FTX is that it was rolling in cash (unlike many startups), and yet never cared enough to throw money at hiring tons of security-minded staff and engineers

Evidently, the reader who was caught did not read the section about fulfilling contracts discreetly.

I'm in US and took both a home test and overnight polysomnogram. Both were fully covered my by insurance. My current insurance is definitely not top of the line either

I'm not sure if it started this way, but I mostly breathe through my mouth at night due to significant congestion in my nasal passage. If I use a nasal rinse or flonase it helps but if I'm not diligent it regresses immediately.

The parent commenter is being (obnoxiously) sarcastic

Similar to the sibling commenter, I would say it's a matter of semantics. I am one of three developers at a small startup and definitely would describe the experience as fun albeit stressful. The two sentiments are not mutually exclusive. If it's not fun / interesting / challenging, the possibility of options being worth something in future would absolutely not justify the stress of working at a startup

Glad the article answered my question right away - A large part of the fraud is in the crypto space

In a real bailout wouldn't SVB continue to exist?

Out of curiosity, what datadog services do you use that cause deployments to be interrupted when they are having an outage?

Internal combustion engines, for others that did not know

"But whoever is stupid and industrious must be got rid of, for he is too dangerous"

Airbnb had an adjusted EBITDA of ~$230m in Q1, so Airbnb has turned a profit once. Not sure about Uber

I have no knowledge of the timeline here so don't know the facts but in any context this is a silly retort.

The screenshot you posted is the same format as review prompts for every app I've seen one on. It's literally just "Enjoying <app name>?". Sure, they could go the extra mile to disambiguate for those that aren't familiar, but this is pretty simple stuff.
