I found their explanations of how each token works - hijacking an egress pathway - quite fascinating. I wonder if this will ever catch on so well as to see countermeasures.

I recently heard about this in my stage 4 support group. No doctor will go on record that they do it however. God forbid there be dignity in choosing when to shuffle off the mortal coil.

If you have a Roku TV, I would urge you to set up a pi hole to see how many queries it sends out. Mine blocks upwards of 10 per minute.

Agreed, I managed to achieve this by port forwarding port 53 in my router settings. This allows hackers to enlist you in their DNS amplification attacks so please never do this.

Yep, standard of care is used in control groups. Also, there are trials in which people are moved from the control arm to the experimental treatment upon increase in tumor size, which allows participants to get a chance to actually trial th

Always encourage her to seek second or third opinions and to join support groups if she can. All cancers are not the same, and staging can determine prognosis, but nothing is set in stone. Ensure that she is active, as that seems to help re

Coinbase customer service has always been tragic. I remember my BTC being locked up until I could "verify" my identity by submitting a photo of my passport, but their site kept glitching out and zero response from customer service

This is to achieve consensus - the N nodes running the smart contract will ideally replace the central authorities that we implicitly trust. This enables trustless transactions, which gets rid of a lot of business red tape and unlocks produ

Yep. This happened in Calgary back in 2013-16 when oil fell off a cliff and office vacancies skyrocketed. A lot of prime downtown office spaces became either coworking spaces or refurbished into luxury apartments.

"No Vacations" - is that a Freudian slip? :) What is the average number of weeks an employee takes? I think that would be a good metric to mention generally.

Some of the jokes were kinda cringy to me, but the reality is that dating hasn't changed too much on the whole, especially for first/second dates, just gotten cheaper due to restaurants/bars being off the menu. On the bright

Sorry to hear about your situation, and thanks for taking my question in good faith. I see, basically a stay at home wife/mother is not adequately compensated for her time spent at home maintaining it and taking care of the children. I

Sorry, but this is an irresponsible conclusion. Today's "untouchables" are largely due to socioeconomic class differences rather than systemic caste oppression, which has been outlawed for a while. The same inequality is grow
