I am 100% sure anyone can buy it. And I am almost equally sure, anyone using it will not get fined.

Whether you can turn them off depends on your operating system. Most of them allow you to turn them off. What are you using? And if it really bothers you, why don't you switch?

Do they not provide fastboot images for the Pixel devices? I know I could just flash those images on a Nexus 5X.

Wouldn't the criminal in this case be able to intercept the letter with the PIN also and replace it with a letter that looks the same but has the wrong PIN? The receiver would not be able to find out the PIN is wrong because the cards chip does not work at all.

Please be more specific. What is not true? That it is slower or that this is not the end of the world?

There is no way to determine what 95% of the community want for the future of Bitcoin. There is no community voting in Bitcoin. Only miner signalling. People can stop using Bitcoin after a change but there is no way to get their opinion in advance.

Do they block or throttle VPN traffic?

This is not what he described. Removing any of these permissions must be handled by the app. The app shouldn't even know I removed a permission. It should just get empty or fake data.

The Bitcoin network cannot know or should it care about a fiat exchange rate. Which currency should it look at? Dollar? Euro? Why? If the block frequency of ten minutes is not met, the difficulty is automatically adjusted after 2016 blocks (ca. 2 weeks) up or down.

But it still helps that they endorse it.

As as developer I am totally happy that it increases my productivity. You know, you don't have to use it? It is not shoved down your throat. It is a supported offer.

That is a total nightmare. How are employers allowed to give that kind of information to Equifax? I do not get why Americans allow this.

From the comments: "This VW was loaded with 1 ton of concrete - then driven into a barrier at 100Km/h. It was a crash barrier test..."

The problem is that this information can be used for identity fraud. You should really find a solution for that problem.

For remote identification we have for example post ident:

Article is in english: https://www.deutschepost.de/en/p/postident/identifizierungsv...

Is that really what the headline said? Because now it is: "Opioid Use May Explain 20% of Drop in American Men’s Labor-Force Participation"

Not giving them this information.

Every question to Google is an answer for Google.

As long as they are not looking that does not matter.

But one that is currently invisible to tax authorities.

How do I run this code? I thikn I succesfully installed the package with npm. There were some warnings but no error. But how do I run:

> const RiggedDie = require('gamblers-dice')

> const die = new RiggedDie(20) // for a d20

> console.log(die.roll()) // 1 -> 20

> console.log(die.roll()) // keep using the same instance

Do I put it in a file? Do I copy paste it into a REPL? If so what provides that REPL?

I am always surprised when sample code providers assume I know their languages ecosystem.

UPDATE: Apparently I can use "node" as a REPL for this.

This is different. It is full surveillance everywhere, for every car and everytime. Not just some roads with cameras. Whose pictures (at least in Germany) are supposed not to be saved except for trucks.

Nobody prevents you to write contracts in a more restrictive language. For example: https://github.com/ethereum/viper

Or create your own. I am sure the creators of Solidity are aware of its limitations and quirks. But as far as I can tell they felt they had to ome up with something fast. And it grew from there.

But as I said: Feel free to create your own language for the EVM if Solidity does not fit your needs or requirements. With a system allowing Turing completenes it should be possible to create a language that removes Turing completeness (for more security). It would be impossible the other way round.

What if both parties collude against you? Then you're in even more trouble. I don't get this paranoia against mixed gender one on one meetings at work. You're truly paranoid. I hope this is only a problem in the US. I have never heard of it in Germany or Europe. Do you really have an Anstandswauwau (chaperon) standing by? I would feel very weird participating only because a man and a woman cannot be trusted to behave professionally in a work environment.

Transaction fees only need to be high if you are in a hurry. If you can wait a week or two you can go with very small TX fees. As you can see in this graph even very low (5 to 10 Satoshi per byte) fee transaction are confirmed eventually. https://jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#24h

Not fixing the underlying security issues makes us all more vulnerable.

By publishing this they increase the vendors incentive to fix the security bugs.

Did you tell them? Did you ask them to stop? Did they ignored your wish?

Does the articles calculation include the nuclear waste that needs to be taken care of after it has served its purpose of producing energy? Or is this article only counting the radioactive emissions during power production?

Some speakers are more willing to give a talk when you record them. On the other hand it depends on the type of conference. There are conferences which are sold out for years and do not need extra money. They want people to be able to see the talk athough they did not win a ticket in the lottery. And this is true for conferences which are very different. Google I/O, Apples WWDC and on the other hand the Chaos Communication Congress. All of them offer recordings for free.

The transaction rate is not proportinal to the amount of power consumed.
