add some bots.

it's missing interpolation on position estimation.
m00dy··on Ask HN: Can current AI models reverse engineer CUDA drivers?
I think it's possible and the clock is ticking.
m00dy··on Residential proxies detected on White House network
Hmm, all our proxy traffic goes through a centralized gateway, so we have security policies in place to help protect against DDoS attacks.
m00dy··on Residential proxies detected on White House network
We have a no-KYC policy to protect our users’ privacy. If we accepted credit cards, we could link users to their real identities. We don't want that.
m00dy··on Want to Rent an Internet Address at the White House?
ASN lookups are so easy...Therefore, detecting VPNs are. Residentials proxies are hard, mobile proxies are harder.
m00dy··on Residential proxies detected on White House network
Burning a compromised host just to run a public proxy client for pennies would be the worst trade-off imaginable for an attacker. It is loud, easily caught.

PS: I own proxybase.xyz, and I think we’re the most transparent residential proxy network in the industry.

I don’t think it’s fair to call all residential proxy networks shady. Not all of us run our businesses that way. Our code is open, we have nothing to hide, and we use US-based stablecoins for transactions. User consent is our number one priority. I haven’t seen anyone else in the industry match that level of transparency.

just reverse engineer the firmware...

I think he meant NVIDIA is the winner in the end.

Don’t trust the news, especially now that AI is seen as part of US national security. We’re in a war, both financially and technologically.
m00dy··on Intel stock collapse worsens as $3.5T chip rout spreads
Intel is so strategic company that I don't think US government will let it go down.

Blockrotate| Senior Systems / Rust Engineer | Remote (US/EU timezones preferred) | Full-time | $130k - $170k + Equity

Blockrotate (https://blockrotate.com) builds low-latency copy-trading and execution infrastructure for Polymarket and prediction markets.

Copy trading on prediction markets has strange market microstructure. Unlike deep perp DEXes (Binance, Hyperliquid), Polymarket orderbooks are bounded, often thin, and subject to severe adverse selection. When a high-volume leader buys, the book moves immediately. If followers lag by a few hundred milliseconds, or if a platform taxes every order with a 50bps fee, follower alpha drops to zero.

Most existing tools in this space either hit users with high per-trade taker fees or ask them to export and paste their master private key into a database. We took a different approach: isolated per-bot deposit wallets (non-custodial via EIP-1967/1271 proxies) and co-located autonomous Rust workers running delta-sync loops directly against the Polymarket CLOB.

Stack:

- Backend: Rust, Tokio, Axum, Protobuf over WebSockets, SQLite (WAL mode)

- Trading Engine: Custom Polymarket CLOB & Data API clients, EIP-712 signing, dynamic slippage ladders, momentum filters, circuit breakers

- Frontend: Next.js 16, React 19, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS

What you’d actually work on:

- Squeezing latency out of the execution hot path (delta position calculation, order placement, nonce handling, fill verification).

- Building better execution protection: momentum filters to dodge toxic order flow, fill stabilization windows, and handling thin book liquidity without moving the market against yourself.

- Scaling worker orchestration: our C2 server talks Protobuf to distributed bot workers with monotonic sequence IDs and autonomous reconnect failover. As bot volume scales, we need to keep state reconciliation bulletproof.

- Investigating and exploiting prediction market quirks (rebate structures, orderbook snapshotting, MEV/relayer bottlenecks).

What we look for:

- Strong async Rust experience (Tokio, concurrency, practical memory management).

- Experience dealing with websockets, exchange orderbooks, or trading infrastructure

yeah executed in 20minutes, how about planning phase ?

it's time to pivot.

It's more about mindset and they're doomed to fail.

what ? :D
m00dy··on Rust Style Guide
As far as I know, someone outside Google rewrote the TypeScript compiler in a week in Rust, and according to the benchmarks, it’s better than the Go version. The same thing will happen here. There’s no time to wait for Google. Someone else will do it.

No, I mean Rust is the final nail in the coffin for C/C++ developers. In Darwinian terms, they’re a species that’s already hit its evolutionary peak and is now heading toward extinction.
m00dy··on Rust Style Guide
Assembly, C, and C++ all fall into the unsafe category. They don’t offer the same memory-safety and concurrency checks Rust does when AI-generated code gets things wrong. Sorry, but this industry is more competitive than ever, and it’s starting to look like there’s no room for amateurs.

It's just a matter of time.

We’re at a point where you can build anything in any language, and Rust is eating everything because its strict guarantees help cover the weaknesses of AI-assisted development.

You don’t need to be a math wizard. Just upload the paper to an AI and ask, “Explain this like I’m five.” Then, with each follow-up prompt, increase the age and level of expertise you want it to assume.
