What could possibly go wrong ? This will TOTALLY save the company from it's demise

r/cryptocurrency thread

Generated from TLDR This:

Since bankrupt crypto lender Celsius froze withdrawals in June, customers' funds have been in limbo.

However, CNBC spoke with former employees who verified that the recording is authentic.

In the audio, Chief Technology Officer Guillermo Bodnar says the plan is in "early stages."

What's laid out may have changed in the weeks since the call.

In the recording, Celsius co-founder Nuke Goldstein outlines a compensation plan for customers who deposited assets in Celsius' "Earn" account, for which Celsius had promised yields as high as 17%.

He said if customers wait to redeem their tokens, there's a better chance that the gap between what Celsius has and what it owes will be smaller.

Ever since i started reading yall posts about TC i felt like shit becuase mine is way lower and now im interviewing with some companies and going thru all the interview and prepping bullshit. Then it hit me. You guys making 250k+ a year aint living the life i live. Most of you are living in silicone valley, i.e. incel valley making 300k per year but havent been laid in 4 years. You pursue a higher TC because you aint got shit else to do. I know you aint fricking anyone. I party every weekend, smash 2 or 3 new girls a month, regularly bring girls over to my house, get random texts from girls wanting to hang out, etc. You guys goof off at work all day, play nintendo all night, and jerk off into your dads dress socks. I shouldnt be going thru the interviewing BS, im happy with what i make. It supports my vices and my lifestyle and thats all that matters.

Have fun making 300k in incel land telling yourself youre happy. I got other priorities.

TC: 150k 10YOE

TC = "total compensation", for those of you not fluent in greedy autist.

Parts of Twitter's source code, the underlying computer code on which the social network runs, were leaked online, according to a legal filing, a rare and major exposure of intellectual property as the company struggles to reduce technical issues and reverse its business fortunes under Elon Musk.

Twitter moved on Friday to have the leaked code taken down by sending a copyright infringement notice to GitHub, an online collaboration platform for software developers where the code was posted, according to the filing. GitHub complied and took down the code that day. It was unclear how long the leaked code had been online, but it appeared to have been public for at least several months.

Twitter also asked the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California to order GitHub to identify the person who shared the code and any other individuals who downloaded it, according to the filing.

Twitter began an investigation into the leak and executives handling the matter have surmised that whoever was responsible left the San Francisco-based company last year, two people briefed on the internal investigation said. Since Mr. Musk bought Twitter in October for $44 billion, about 75 percent of the company's 7,500 employees have been laid off or resigned.

The executives were only recently made aware of the source code leak, the people briefed on the internal investigation said. One concern is that the code includes security vulnerabilities that could give hackers or other motivated parties the means to extract user data or take down the site, they said.

The exposed source code adds to the challenges facing Mr. Musk’s Twitter. Technology companies often view such code as a closely held secret and do not share it for fear that it could give competitors an unfair advantage or reveal security vulnerabilities.

But even as tech companies strive to protect their code bases, they have become ripe targets for opportunists, hackers and others. Last year, a hacking group successfully stole source code from Microsoft and other major companies. And in 2020, Anthony Levandowski, a star engineer of self-driving cars, was sentenced to 18 months in prison for stealing code from Google as he prepared to start a new job. (Mr. Levandowski was later pardoned by then-President Donald J. Trump.)

The public posting of Twitter's code is "concerning," said Brett Callow, a threat analyst at Emsisoft, a cybersecurity software company. "It does make it a little bit easier and speedier to probe for vulnerabilities."

For Twitter, the leak also comes on top of mounting structural and financial challenges. Mr. Musk has been trying to turn around the social network over the past few months by slashing costs, trying out new features and welcoming back previously banned users. But outages of the service have increased, while advertisers --- the main source of revenue for the company --- have been skittish about running ads on the site.

The turmoil has caused financial damage. On Friday, Mr. Musk told employees in an email that Twitter was worth roughly $20 billion, down more than 50 percent from what he paid for it. He said "radical changes" at the company, including mass layoffs and cost cutting, were necessary to avoid bankruptcy and streamline operations.

"Twitter is being reshaped rapidly," Mr. Musk wrote in the email seen by The New York Times. He added that the company could be thought of as "an inverse start-up" and that he believed Twitter could someday be worth $250 billion.

Mr. Musk did not respond to a request for comment about Twitter's leaked code. GitHub declined to comment on the decision to remove the code, but posted Twitter's takedown request on its website.

The leak comes as Mr. Musk has promised to make some of Twitter's code public. This month, the billionaire said he would make the code that Twitter uses to recommend tweets publicly available by the end of March, so that it could be reviewed by anyone and scrutinized for possible flaws. The process could help Twitter's code become more secure, as people identified and reported problems with it.

At the same time, Mr. Musk has worried about the possibility of leaks and theft by disgruntled former employees during his mass layoffs. In November, he locked Twitter’s offices and asked employees not to come in while cuts were being made. Over the last few months, Twitter has also prevented engineers from making changes to the site’s code ahead of layoffs for fear that someone would sabotage the platform on the way out the door.

“One of the best ways to mitigate insider risk is to keep your employees happy and that certainly hasn’t been the case at Twitter,” Mr. Callow said.

The person who leaked Twitter’s source code appeared to go by the name “FreeSpeechEnthusiast” on GitHub, according to Twitter’s legal filing. The user’s pseudonym appears to be a reference to Mr. Musk, who has referred to himself as a “free speech absolutist.”

The GitHub profile for the anonymous user shows a single contribution to the platform in early January. The profile remains online.

Are we at this level now? The scheduler performance has nothing to do with the used language. Actually making use of the freedom C provides (while being unsafe) you have the ability to implement whatever complex algorithm you can envision in the most direct way. Moreover scheduling is all about tradeoffs: it's not hard to write a scheduler that is better than a genera purpose one for a specific task. If you like Rust write your code in Rust but the community should stop with this kind of attitude.

That's getting boring.

This ‘rewrite in Rust' is already old news. The verdict is in; it couldn't replace C.

Go is a better choice for networking and C is still more tractable for systems programming than Rust. Rust has its niche for sure but rewriting everything is never going to happen.

tldr: As expected V3 ad blocking will be worse than V2 (e.g. uBlock Origin) with devs having to deal with work arounds and deal with a limited number of rules.

The last phase of the launch will come very soon: starting in January 2023, all extensions on Manifest V2 will stop working, even those that were added to Chrome Web Store earlier.

For static rules, Chrome set a minimum guaranteed limit of 30,000 rules per extension and a total limit of 330,000 rules for all extensions installed by a single user (this also takes into account the limit of 1,000 regexp rules per extension). The trick is that one extension may get all of the allowed amount of rules, or there may be more than one, and then perhaps some of the extensions will fall short of the limit.

Conclusion

Despite the limitations of Manifest V3, AdGuard MV3 still protects against ads and tracking quite well:

• Blocks requests to trackers proactively

• Hides banners, social widgets and other annoying elements

• Blocks adverts on video sharing platforms, including YouTube

Although the experimental extension is not as effective as its predecessor, most users won't feel the difference. The only thing you might notice is ad flickering due to the lag in the application of cosmetic rules.

Our goal with this prototype is to test the new approach and get your feedback. So please, try it out and let us know what can be improved. As usual, this prototype is open source and published on Github. If you have any issue with it or have any suggestion, please post it to Github and we will listen.

By releasing an extension built with Manifest V3 today — first among developers of ad blockers – we can say that we've met the challenge that Google posed to us. There is still a lot of work to be done, but we can already claim that even after the discontinuation of Manifest V2, Google Chrome users will be able to protect themselves from ads and trackers with the AdGuard Browser Extension.

How dare nobody suggest rDrama as an alternative

Groomercord is laying off 17 percent of its staff, a move that CEO Jason Citron said is meant to “sharpen our focus and improve the way we work together to bring more agility to our organization.”

The cuts were announced today to employees in an all-hands meeting and internal memo I've obtained. They'll impact 170 people across various departments.

If you don't know what a Kei Car is, it's a Japanese class of vehicles that are super tiny and limited to 63hp. They are typically cute and/or crazy and make affordable enthusiast cars.

Recently they've been very popular as cheap light farm trucks.

To import a car into the US it needs to be 25 years old because of stupid laws. Orange site cannot believe we would do something so dangerous as allow cars with outdated safety standards on the road - after all, you might hurt yourself!

I feel like this sort of thing is a fantastic illustration of the irresponsible level which most drivers (in the US at least; can't speak to other countries) feel that they are just so so good at driving that they believe all these safety features are fine to go without.

Sure, this is presumably not your sole vehicle or daily driver. And sure, you're not going to be taking one of these on a 65mph highway. But a 30mph head-on collision with another vehicle will almost certainly kill you in one of these trucks. And I know if I was the driver of the other vehicle, and survived, even if I wasn't the one at fault, I'd probably need years of expensive therapy to get past it all.

If this is too for you, he's mad because he's afraid he'll need therapy after killing you because of your car choice.

This moron wants you to give up your fun car because he's afraid he'll need therapy. I just wanted to repeat that.

If safety was a primary concern for U.S. regulators, large consumer SUVs and trucks would not exist in their current form. As of ~2019 (the last such study I know of) trucks killed occupants of other vehicles at 2.5x the rate of cars and "SUVs" (an increasingly useless category as it includes everything from small unibody crossovers to enormous body-on-frame Canyonero-style monstrosities). I am not aware of any comparable headline figure for how pedestrians fare against them but I would put money on their pedestrian safety performance also being atrocious.

What is it will silicon valley and car-hate?

I don't understand the anger and disdain from people about others potentially hurting themselves. The only thing I can think of is they are jealous of someone who doesn't have these sort of intrusive thoughts about safety all the time and how they get to do something cool like the OP every now and then.

Fortunately someone has a sane take.

A kei truck is still safer than taking a bicycle or motorcycle on public roads. Do you propose banning those?

Another refutation, what does the site think about this?

Nah, this is some terrible whataboutism. Stick to the topic.

He said the magic word that invalidates all arguments!

Anyway I think much of the anti-kei sentiment is lobbyists trying to protect the truck market from affordable competition.
