They say they get around the easy linking of a single wallet address to your identity by using subaddresses. I don't think this fixes it, it merely delays it.

The number of these subaddresses are capped to prevent botting. But suppose you use this account every day for years or decades. You've meticulously allocated subaddresses for different categories of spending, assessed the risk profile of using each one, and used them throughout the years until you're out of subaddresses.

Now you're vulnerable to having your identity tied to the account since the risk of getting had goes up every time you use any of your subaccounts. And this risk only increases the more you use your Worldcoin.

Even if the biometric privacy safeguards they built in (hashing yer Mk. I orbs) work perfectly, I wouldn't use it for the reasons I mentioned above, there isn't a way to ensure transactional anonymity if your account/subaccounts can be linked to your real identity regardless of the method.

I see an outline of a QR code in there. How well would that work if someone could just vandalize a single pixel within the code and break it?

So... when will there be PowerPoints and training that will now be required as a result of this incident? Now DoD employees will have to sit through yet another hour-long presentation about how to not make spelling mistakes lol.

The only appropriate response to that is

git: 'gud' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.

Five times slower for us distant observers, regular time (1 second = 1 second) if you're actually there, if I'm understanding this correctly.

Still, difficult to wrap my brain around.

There might be some traction if those laptops and desktops were a little cheaper than those preloaded with Windows.

Greta taking town Tate is one of those things that is head canon to me, truth be damned.

I've used the F710 so that our family can couch co-op in the living room. For a Logitech controller it's pretty solidly built and is of the era where Logitech peripherals were of good quality (unlike now, rip new G503s). I noticed that the wireless range kinda sucked if it didn't have direct LOS to the receiver, but it has good rumble feedback and I like the smooth matte black underside material (feels good to the touch).

Part of me wants the apple farmers in Switzerland to leverage their preexisting rightful claim on all things (fruit) apple and go into the computer hardware business to take on Apple, just out of spite.

Ah but it's exclusive you see. Your avatar can be a glowy, animated Snoo, whereas everyone else just has free peasant avatars.

For the low price of 105 ETH $(227,389.05). Makes about as much sense as the really high priced ships in Star Citizen.

I've been driving for years so I gotta critique this concept.

  1. Where's the right side mirror? That's critically important in being aware of what's on your blind spot or when merging in lanes.

  2. The turn indicator positions are nonstandard. They should be on the left arm and controlled in an up-down motion, instead of being used to turn on and off the lights. Right now they're on the steering wheel where the horn is, which is confusing.

  3. There are no instrumentation that isn't musical on the dashboard. I can't tell how fast I'm going, whether my engine speed is normal, or how much gas/charge my vehicle has. Yes, it moos. Yes that's the sound a cow makes but that's not helping me drive the car now is it.

  4. Why is there a traffic light on my dashboard? Unless it is synced to the traffic grid and shows real time status of the light in front of me it's useless.

  5. The gear shifter doesn't distinguish between the gears, or anything really. Is my transmission set to drive forward or backwards? This is the difference between going through a drive thru and ordering coffee and literally driving through the coffee shop.

No wonder our children aren't learning how to drive safely if their toys do not reflect real world knowledge of steering wheel equipment.

This is why we need good driving simulators. Like GTA 5.

How did this get normalized? Why is this even something that is even considered debatable? As a society, feeding our children should be the first priority.

I'm flubbered.

Yeah and unless someone has the exact knowledge of what hard drive to look for in a server rack somewhere, tracing an individual site's contents that went 404 is practically impossible.

I wonder though if Cloud applications would be more robust than individual websites since they tend to be managed by larger organizations (AWS, Azure, etc).

Maybe we need a Svalbard Seed Vault extension just to house gigantic redundant RAID arrays. 😄

This is something that keeps me worried at night. Unlike other historical artefacts like pottery, vellum writing, or stone tablets, information on the Internet can just blink into nonexistence when the server hosting it goes offline. This makes it difficult for future anthropologists who want to study our history and document the different Internet epochs. For my part, I always try to send any news article I see to an archival site (like archive.ph) to help collectively preserve our present so it can still be seen by others in the future.

Why use pi when you can use 🥧

fn main() {
    let pi_emoji = "🥧";
    let pi_value = 3.1415926535897932384626433832;

    println!("Let {} {:.28}", pi_emoji, pi_value);
}

It wants to say "Good evening, may I hold your towel please?"
