   Ghana, a coastal African country of more than 28 million still etched with pockets of extreme poverty

Ugh New York times.

On the issue of obesity however, like someone has already addressed in the thread, has more to do with individual choices than the availability of fast food joints. There have been arguments about people who frequent Macs or KFC everyday of their lives, and have managed to stay fit/in shape(Though not an argument for overall good health).

You forgot to take images and videos into account.

I don't believe they use the traditional cold storage methods anymore(Usb/Device in a phyiscal vault or paper in a physical vault etc). They generate the keys offline and split the keys using a secret sharing method among a quorom of keyholders. So they are geographically dispersed and if one subset on keys were to be lost, there's still a possibility of regenerating by obtaining the other sets from the Quorom

You seem to misunderstand my statement. Let me explain a little further please.

Your coins are not safe/secure while they are with coinbase, and will never be because you do not own the private keys. It does not prevent you from losing your money in the event of worst case scenarios, it just makes it harder for someone to steal your money while it is in the care of coinbase.

For those who might be a bit confused......

This feature will not make your coins more secure or prevent coinbase from being hacked. However your coins will most likely be moved to "Cold storage" which will make your coins extremely difficult to steal in the event that either coinbase or your account is breached.

As far as cryptocurrency exchanges go, Coinbase is among the most secure, practicing what they call "Paranoid Security".

Brian has written about it in the past. https://engineering.coinbase.com/how-coinbase-builds-secure-...

No one sees anything wrong with this ? What about the privacy of the victim? I'm not sure I'd like my pictures or a video of me suffering/dying all over the internet.

Is this not the same reason families ask for privacy when suicide/attempted suicide victims are being attended to ?

I've personally witnessed a startup where the founders were very close friends and it didn't pan out well in the beginning. The Lead was disciplined and very methodical but one of the cofounders just floundered about creating havoc at every opportunity. It got to that point where the Lead had to drawn a line between work and brotherhood. Everything fixed itself after

So i'll chip this in. You've got to ask whether these people know where to draw the line between work and friendship. If the answer is no, Run for it

You might wanna include more sources for your aggregation, including subreddits....

Take a look at https://cryptopanic.com

You might want to ask on the top Crypto telegram chat groups. Try WhalePool or WhaleClub. There are lot of big names in Crypto there.. Whalepanda, Charlie Shrem, Saj Mathieu, BTCVIX, WideSpreadBTC etc.

Can't say they'll grant your interview, but trying never hurt anyone

As far as I'm aware, Cryptopanic[0] is the only decent news aggregator but it doesn't have HN-like discussion features.

News in the cryptocurrency community can be extremely unreliable and designed to influence trading negatively or positively so most people stick to sources they can really trust.

Day/Swing Traders - They use Telegram channels(Whalepool, Whaleclub, Bitstash, Coinfarm) for their discussions and pick their news from subreddits(r/btc, r/bitcoin, r/bitcoinmarkets, r/Ethereum, r/ethtrader).

Developers - Slack and Telegram. Reddit and Twitter for their news

This is a bit vague, but here are some suggestions

If your health is really important to you, you'll take a 3 year break(Not realistic, I know) if you have to. I know people who quit jobs so they can focus on weight loss. Moved to cheap areas/countries and made their weight a priority. I'll rather go broke a few months than spend the rest of my life with mounting medical bills that pile up as a result of my weight.

As much as this article contains very little information,this sounds very much like something the US will do.

Whenever someone has to be the butt of some global joke .....somehow the US has to be the one to step up. Taking someone into custody for 18 hours without giving the family or press any information. How different is this from Iran or North Korea?

Two things could've happened here IMO. They asked for the domain to turned over to them and were politely refused, or they're about to punish an accidental hero for white hat work/previous black hat work not related to WannaCry

This was obviously shared by another user and not the author. Doesn't have a show HN tag as well

Nginx and Git.

Nginx has a lot of respect on the market for handling high concurrency as well as exhibiting high performance and efficiency.

I don't even have to speak about the Git architecture. It speaks plainly for itself.

There's a series of books called The Architecture of Open Source Applications that does justice to this topic

Always welcome :)

I'd personally suggest the Molding mobility routine to you as something to do every day. Works wonders for the back.

Here, have a look https://phrakture.github.io/molding-mobility.html

Would you like an invite?

There's a ton of resources here as well

Yeah, i think renaming it to Positive/Negative Signal should reduce some pressure. For you to optimally determine how the news really impacts on the price, you'd have to monitor several channels/chatgroups/reddit forums and feeds of several cryptogroups to see whether they are affected. Too much work, and i doubt even machine learning will be helpful in this scenario. Your current approach is fine. Keep up!!

Being a long time f-droid user, i panicked a bit when i saw the title.

It's really sad to see Boris leave, considering the amount of work he puts in. You'd go over to make a little contribution and be feeling yourself, then you look over and see Boris who's made about 9000 commits and you're immensely humbled.

This incredibly useful. However i'm just a little skeptical about the impact on price and whether it can successfully push either negative or positive signals.

Great Job overall. I already posted the link in a few crypto telegram channels

Whoever you are, thank you very much for this!!! God Bless you!!

Also how are you paying for this?

Hey, can I get one as well? Email is in my profile

Thanks

If you have the patience to raise one, I'd suggest you go in for a Caucasian Ovcharka. Preferably raise a puppy so they can get used to your children and family. I wouldn't call them non lethal but they'd certainly give pause to anything short of an armed robber.

Second choice will be a pitbull.

Also I've known a signpost with the following words to be very deterrent if deterrence is also an option : "Please do not walk on this property unescorted. Pet Cobra on property. Insert picture of large realistic cobra" How many people are willing to rob a house with snakes?

And finally on weapons, i know a guy with a homemade flashlight casing taser. Not sure it's even up to 5000 volts but he claims its come handy in an altercation with an intruder before.

I worry about getting corrupted by money and power. At first all i wanted was enough to survive. Then i found out "enough" had no physical barriers. The more money you have, the more you do to keep it or and the more you do to make more.

I worry about being 40 or 50 or 60 and having as much money as a man could dream about and yet finding no peace or having no memories. I worry about looking back to when i was 25 and all i can remember is sitting infront of a computer hitting a keyboard with all my strength and watching that time pass away, never to be regained.

If you ever get about to writing your story, Lemme know. I'd definitely like to read it

Man, you're such a talented writer. I got hooked right from the first word and its been a pleasant read.

Couple of questions... Was the note selling industry a niche field at that time ?

Also why do a couple of the articles require FB logins.
