ex3ndr··on Arduino Uno R4
Finally 32 bits! Let's hope everyone would start forgetting 5v and 8bit.
ex3ndr··on Quality of new vehicles in US declining on more tech use: study
130k miles? virtually any car can do this without major problems.
ex3ndr··on Quality of new vehicles in US declining on more tech use: study
So, like tesla model 3 or y?
ex3ndr··on SEC asks for emergency order to freeze Binance US assets anywhere in the world
This is all solvable and in fact solved, just not integrated in the wallets.
ex3ndr··on OpenGL 3.1 on Asahi Linux
No, I need nvidia for ML
ex3ndr··on GGML – AI at the Edge
so sad we still don't have a perfect neural network for activation word to make home assistants complete
ex3ndr··on OpenGL 3.1 on Asahi Linux
Super curious if it is possible to run nvidia gpu on new Mac Pro using Asahi Linux? Can it be vritualized with pass-through?
ex3ndr··on Covid-19 vaccination-related myocarditis: A Korean nationwide study
20% of myocarditis ended up in deaths and heart transplantation. Young males 12-17 seems to be more affected.
ex3ndr··on UK’s GDPR replacement could wipe out oversight of live facial recognition
No, it is CCTV heavy, but most cameras are private, not public and not part of the single network.
ex3ndr··on Ozempic drug supresses desire to smoke, drink and more?
Super weird since once you get thyroid problems, you have to drop this medication.
ex3ndr··on Linda Yaccarino is the new CEO of Twitter
How it is great? USS still not available on 100k+ car.
ex3ndr··on Intel OEM Private Key Leak: A Blow to UEFI Secure Boot Security
Because you still would need a backup
ex3ndr··on Give It the Craigslist Test
Well, AirBNB wouldn't pass this test in early days since they mostly started to grow after starting making professional photos
ex3ndr··on Announcing WCGI: WebAssembly and CGI
GWT allowed to run it without applets, also much more efficient than any current stack (since they dont support closure compiler)
ex3ndr··on Apple passwords deserve an app
So, it is not encrypted? nice
ex3ndr··on Original Prusa MK4
super weird since it just worked for me, unlike creatility stuff
ex3ndr··on Apple passwords deserve an app
Not really, you need another device to share icloud keychain
ex3ndr··on Signal is for everyone, and everyone is different
Telegram solved this problem, they just sold a fake numbers on blockchain where you can get a number without leaving a trace and stay completely anonymous while keeping number-based model. Plus, additional monetization.
ex3ndr··on AWS and Blockchain
It is a little bit different, if you are doing it in centralised way - you have to control and secure everything - from databases to access to admin panels. It is quite complicated, requires robust processes, etc. Most of the finances are not really programmable, everything is done via simple scripts on some machine that just turns the knobs. You have to secure this part also.

It is a lot of work.

While for crypto-escrow you can just do a simple multi-sig with a hot keys that running on admin machines and they sign results there and they couldn't get the money, so no reason to try to hack the system.

Much easier setup.

ex3ndr··on AWS and Blockchain
Very big article that basically buried the core difference: zero trust or some "trusted transaction manager".

Moving from the second to the first is very trivial - just make it based on distributed consensus of nodes that are run by separate entities, may be even several different cloud vendors.

AWS also doesn't have some interesting things from crypto-world - smart contracts, that are just like lambda functions that couldn't be altered in any way and could be trusted by third-party. They have Nitro Enclaves, this is close, but quite hard to use.

ex3ndr··on Canon EOS R7 Disassembly and Teardown
Do they really need hardware to be that complex?
ex3ndr··on Stablecoin Mechanics 2: Tether-Celsius
Did you ever have issues sending money overseas? It is almost always painful and even sometimes money lost. Transact USDC/USDT is so much easier than anything else on global scale.
ex3ndr··on Stablecoin Mechanics 2: Tether-Celsius
Is this a joke? Russia literally restricted foreign currency usage, you can't get USD with you anywhere and you can't transfer it overseas. And no-one is able to use banking obviously. I bet in other countries there are the same issues and many people are unbanked.
ex3ndr··on Deno vs. Bun performance is rigged
Express is a slowest solution on the market. Fastify can handle as much as 60k (!) requests per second per core(!): https://www.fastify.io/benchmarks/

For example, go can handle about the same amounts (be advised that this tests are for 4 cores, so results have to be divided): https://github.com/smallnest/go-web-framework-benchmark

ex3ndr··on Deno vs. Bun performance is rigged
Javascript is plagued with idea that it is slow while it is not. Many devs now have PTSR after arguing day after day that javascript is a good thing and not slow.

Performance is a very important thing in js world for a peace of mind of devs.

ex3ndr··on Taildrop
In my setups zero tier barely worked while Tailscale worked flawlessly.
ex3ndr··on “Privacy”.com–Yeah Right
Onfido is state of the art service for ID verification and very trustworthy.
