Crypto can technically implement privacy and anonymity in a way that regulators cannot prevent. Now what do we do about it? Also, Ethereum could adopt privacy by default some day, via their proposal process. It's fascinating to watch

I think this case is a pretty clear example of why. The regulators are supposed to be protecting who from what exactly? And at whose expense? So far I've seen two lines of reasoning: 1) Regulators are needed to protect me from myself.

I think this is exactly the kind of privacy you can defend in court. The reason we don't have privacy is because technology has been centralized and it's easy to pressure providers to give up user's privacy. The idea that par

I think the original article painted it pretty well. If you could disappear and nobody would notice, you probably aren't part of a community. Shared interests and activities definitely count if there's meaningful interaction hap

This is the n'th tech company today that's made an announcement similar to this. Even Disney is going to transport workers to abortion-legal states as needed as "health benefit". It's certainly a perk and good on G

You can confirm it's non-commercial and they let you keep it for free... for now. They made the change fairly late in the process, and supposedly there was a way to undo the paid migrations by opening a support ticket, but I saw lots o

Honestly though, it's not "fuck Congress", it's "fuck the electorate". One of the great ironies about the rise of corporate fascism in the US is that the democracy does function on a technical level. If enough

> Japanese people are just Asian English people. That's hilarious. I don't know many English or Japanese people, but all of my stereotypes of both have way more overlap than I thought. Maybe it's something in the tea.

I love TE's stuff and I've always thought it was a huge miss that they don't opensource everything. The new OP-1 looks great and so does the TX-6, but I'm not buying either knowing that I can't maintain/upgrade

I think you've missed the point entirely. Practically, there are a ton of ways to turn 500,000 EUR into "anonymous" crypto, depending on what you mean by "anonymous". You can use an exchange (KYC or non-KYC) that le

Wireguard gives you an interface like any other network interface. You manage the traffic the same way you would manage a physical network. That's the whole point. The actual complaint here is that wireguard isn't productized in

Serious question for HN: How do we replace eBay with a reliable, sensibly run public service? It's extremely disheartening that it's now 2022 and we haven't figured out a way to replace eBay. It's the most basic form of

Any of them work, and it probably depends how deep you're in. If you can't fall asleep without a drink, xanax would be a good choice. If you need a drink in your hand all day, I'd guess librium. If you're drinking from

Pedantic, but: from the device's point of view, it's always a "pull". You can't "push" to something that's not publicly addressable. From your app's point of view, you receive a "push"

Sure. RSS is a neat standard, but if you're writing your own app, you might as well use a custom JSON payload that's exactly what you need. If you use RSS but never actually use an RSS reader or expose it to the public, you may e

Awesome, maybe it's worth a look then. "amdgpu" seems supported, which I assume is very similar to the linux one, since it has the same name and is open source.
