isubkhankulov··on Mochary Method Curriculum
I wrote several scripts to rip all the docs, loom videos, slide decks and sheets linked from all of the docs. DM me and I’m happy to share it.
isubkhankulov··on FDA moves to make over-the-counter hearing aids available
Concerts, headphones, combat, industrial machinery. You name it.

Hearing loss is cumulative and the statistics are mind boggling. ~20% of people in their 20’s have hearing loss.

isubkhankulov··on The 15-minute city (2020)
I can see how you might feel this way but have you ever visited NYC, London, Moscow, or Madrid? All are good counter-examples of your supposition.
isubkhankulov··on Sensors carried by cars begin measuring air quality in New York City
This is a great initiative. I’m looking forward to seeing the results. Air pollution has been linked to various negative health outcomes, even autism.

Counterintuitively, air pollution from cars lingers in the air up to 6-7 stories, so living relatively above the traffic doesn’t solve these problems.

isubkhankulov··on The GPU shortage is over
It doesn’t have the political will to do so because inflation is much worse than a recession
isubkhankulov··on Getting a vanity phone number with four consecutive digits
You probably know this but if that is your real date of birth, I suggest that change the numbers so that you are not leaking your and your wife’s PII on the internet. All sorts of people out there who might be able to use it to steal both your identities, crypto, etc.

In fact your entire comment linking your easily obtainable phone number to your birthday might be risky to say publicly.

isubkhankulov··on Why the government took home prices out of its main inflation index
Do you have to subtract the mortgage interest expenses from $100k to get closer to their true net profit?
isubkhankulov··on Ask HN: Have you created programs for only your personal use?
This is great! I would love to self-host this. Are you planning on releasing the code?
isubkhankulov··on Ask HN: Why aren't you starting your own company?
In the US, that’s not correct.

LLC’s protect you personally from most business debts and liabilities as long as there is no personal guarantee.

I think you’re thinking of sole proprietorships.

isubkhankulov··on A search engine that favors text-heavy sites and punishes modern web design
A small nit: I think Google’s customers are actually the companies paying for ads. Its an important distinction and probably explains why their search results’ quality has gone down
isubkhankulov··on CIA director says he is escalating efforts to solve 'Havana Syndrome'
I can't wait until they start using three greek letter acronyms and all the fraternities and sororities go up in arms.
isubkhankulov··on Two Photographers Unknowingly Shot the Same Millisecond in Time
The skeptic in me thinks this was planned. Yellow submarining given that the author is selling something
isubkhankulov··on A $232M Cryptocurrency Fight Comes to a Close
I stand corrected!
isubkhankulov··on A $232M Cryptocurrency Fight Comes to a Close
The Breitmans took over the project less than a year before the ICO. Proof can be found on twitter, where the original paper's author posted that he is handing the project over.
isubkhankulov··on Airbnb’s Battle to Stay Private
i think youre under estimating the battles Airbnb is fighting in most of its largest markets
isubkhankulov··on Addressing the recent attention focused on Strava and our global heatmap
this whole thing must be great PR for Strava. they've basically become a household name overnight.
isubkhankulov··on Influencers don’t really influence anything or anyone
I think the author is using the word influencer to specifically refer to instagram influencers aka fashion/muscle/whatever models. theres a reason comedians dont hock products over instagram, but kim khardasian and co do. in other words, influencers' fame was gained through static imagery over the internet. You're referring to actual influencers. So in the end you both agree.
isubkhankulov··on Ask HN: 5 months and counting waiting for Coinbase customer support. Advice?
its actually for anti-fraud
isubkhankulov··on Bitcoin’s energy usage is huge – we can't afford to ignore it
are you sure?

all of these surely have a substantial eco footprint - money production, for both paper and coin - armored cars picking up cash and bringing to the bank - physical locations, banks, check cashing places

isubkhankulov··on MakerDAO’s “DAI” stablecoin is breaking, as predicted
The author's main point is that since the token is collaterized by ether, the value of the coin depends on ETH rising in value. The token's creators attempt to solve this by over collateralizing 50% which he considers foolish because it just adds leverage to the system so when losses occur, they are exaggerated.
isubkhankulov··on Tezos founders push for legal bailout from Swiss foundation
Thanks for the full disclosure. Good luck with your investment but the comments section for this article is probably not a good place to pump coins.
isubkhankulov··on There might be a ballot measure to decriminalize psilocybin in Calfornia in 2018
For the prohibition, conservatively the homicide rate dropped 5-13%.

if about 15k people in the US are murdered every year. Ending drug prohibition would save lets say 10% of those murdered? or 1,500 people. thats about half the amount killed on 9/11. This isn't counting all the deaths south of the border or all of the violence.

isubkhankulov··on Storj: Not a Dropbox Killer
only if they also exclude US persons
isubkhankulov··on Investor Bulletin, July 25: Initial Coin Offerings
i agree with you but in ethereum's case they had several beta versions before the raise
isubkhankulov··on Cryptocurrency miners are renting Boeing 747s to ship graphics cards
its useful for conducting unregulated securities offerings and launching dapps. i just haven't found any useful dapps yet. dapps are mostly used when you need censorship resistant functionality.
isubkhankulov··on Message to Our Customers: Shopify Incompetence Is Causing Us Problems / Delays
always have a backup processor don't know if its possible with shopify, but lesson learned
isubkhankulov··on SEC Issues Report Concluding DAO Tokens, a Digital Asset, Were Securities
history has proven this sentiment wrong
isubkhankulov··on SEC Issues Report Concluding DAO Tokens, a Digital Asset, Were Securities
securities laws apply based on the investor's jurisdiction
isubkhankulov··on SEC Issues Report Concluding DAO Tokens, a Digital Asset, Were Securities
securities are property and property theft is a crime. even before this ruling, coins were treated as property.
isubkhankulov··on Amazon raised Prime Day prices, misleading consumers, says vendor
Amazon created a second black friday. I'm impressed by Jeff Bezos!
