My guess: Money Laundering.

You could certainly pay less than ~$20,000 in Stripe/CC fees to move $1M if your motives were on the up and up. Especially if you were doing it regularly.

"...energy gravitates, this reduces the mass of the products." "...the product are lighter than the initial substances by the mass equivalent of the energy released."

How are these not restating "turn mass into energy"?

Both scenarios approximate: High Mass => Low Mass + Energy

When the list of people also includes folks who claim to "customize clinical trials to support marketing claims"[0] it is hard to take even experts with solid credentials seriously.

If you have the computing power to brute force sha256 then there are few security precautions a user can take against you.

That opens up forging SSL certificates, signing Debian packages, and a whole slew of other things that you could pull off with more computing power than has existed in the whole of the universe.

By commenting that you are European, are you trying to stay out of the US hosting megalith entirely?

Fastmail has been a great provider for me but, despite being Australian, I believe they are US hosted.

Sounds like you have a good incentive to spin up a domain and start transitioning away from Google.

If you have your own domain name for your email, you can point it at any host's servers. Google in the case of Gsuite or Fastmail or Pobox or anyone else.

If you have regular backups, all you have to do is change a DNS record to switch to a different provider and you shouldn't lose any email in the process.

This is what I and many others do. I have had the same email address for ~20 years and have had it hosted on at least a half dozen providers over that time with no loss in data.

Your OS hasnt received a security patch in 3 years. Your iTerm hasn't been updated in 2 years.

I wouldn't worry so much about iTerm and would start working harder on those issues that are preventing you from updating.

That one is just factually incorrect and a good correction. He was not a cofounder in ebay.

He just sold Paypal to them about 7 years after ebay was founded.

The conviction rate in Japan is bonkers and has been for a long time.

Who do you suggest does have the resources?

Bitwarden is essentially the work of one person[0].

Are you suggesting that we only rely on Apple Keychain and Chrome password sync due to their MegaCorp backing?

That's not the argument they made.

I do not know that there is no one out there in the world who has a key to my house. Even if there was and someone found that key on a city street they would likely not be able to figure out which house it opened.

I know there is no legally mandated key to everyone's house that would allow anyone to enter whomever's house they please.

This can already be done in the "home automation" side of the shortcuts / home app. My own house lights up whenever my wife or I come home after dark and goes dark again when we leave.

"...with whom I was..."

Is that grammatically correct? It appears to be, but wow does it ring strangely in my ear.

Because it is super offtopic. I would also downvote "does anyone have a favorite CLI recipe manager?"

I understand the desire for a site like this from a job seeker's perspective (no CS degree here either), but what is the incentive for the employer?

Are these no-CS job hunters not on every other site? As a job poster just put "No degree required" and your inbox should be flooded.

I don't see "no degree" as a skill that needs to be sought by paying $99 to post a job.

It's pretty straight forward to get a quote, is it not?

How could that be the case? The map for 66M years ago (predating the human fossil record) looks functionally identical.

How far do you live from the seller?

Shipping prices can vary widely for items of significant size.

It is easy for a giant like Amazon to negotiate shipping terms that they can amortize over a vast amount of sales, but that is not true for a small seller moving only double digit numbers of items.

While you and I agree that Parent is incorrect, let's not resort to personal attacks.

Your corporate network is using network address translation (NAT) to map an external address, shown on icanhazip.com, to a local network address, shown in ipconfig. You likely share this external address with many other users and mapping services to it will be challenging without having access to the routing/forwarding configuration.

Perhaps you need to grow your bubble a bit. I would say her Nobel (or many other awards[0]) is a greater indication of the reverence given to her than the fact that you have not heard of her.

Sounds pretty close to wire fraud to me.

Don't build a system to circumvent sanctions if you're within the reach of the US Government, AKA much of the world.

In a way, that is what he is actually doing:

  Over the next few months, we will start by asking our 
  collaborators to open source everything from Lydia’s 
  N-of-1— the process, costs, contracts, protocols, 
  assays, cell lines and data.

Did you read the whole article?

  After all this I noticed a reduction in critical 
  thought, my ability to form my own opinion on topics, 
  as I had a) stopped reading the damn links, b) would 
  skim what I needed off of the most upvoted comment, 
  c) would then take that comment as gospel.

It is super true if you are using outside resources for R&D/NREC.

Line item on the PO or wrap it into the part costs.

We make our candidates sign an NDA before an on-site interview, but do so because of the risk that they see/hear some of our internal information during the interview process not to entrap their ideas.

For the sizes he is talking about, their pricing is literally identical:

4gb: DO $20 / Linode: $20

8gb: DO $40 / Linode: $40

16gb: DO $80 / Linode: $80

Sure there are some pricing differences in the >32gb memory space, but they're not apples-apples comparisons.
