Love to see this kind of project bringing new eyes to Bitcoin.
Practical question, how did you generate the private keys? One must trust you did not keep a copy of each of those keys, right? Are the envelopes tamper proof? What postal service do you use?
So this a manual that teaches the recipient how to transfer the funds to an exchange or hardware wallet with truly private keys?
The amounts are small, so these questions are mostly out of curiosity. The advantages outweigh the disadvantages of this approach, so still think this is a great project.
The computer cluster has ;)
Doing a lot of HPC these days.
Not as much as a few years back, though; at the time, I was running jobs on 10,000 CPUs in parallel.
Today I learnt that
shell treats numbers as octal: $((10#$2)) vs $(($2)) when my second argument was 08, completely messing up a script. I only noticed it two weeks into the calculation. fmlI did not read the article, so this is just a hot-take. My hunch is that to have children, one must already be happier than others to even consider it. Here, lots of childless couples carry some heavy childhood trauma, making them, on average, less happy, not wanting to pass on their burden and genes to someone else, and thus, less likely to have children. Basically, it's a chicken-and-egg problem. Happy coz of no kids, or no kids coz of not happy, that is the question. Just a hunch though.
@mega_dreamer, getting this error when trying to pay using internal Predyx wallet.
From XKCD.
Interesting turn of events.
Just a good reminder that (i) prediction markets will be gamed and (ii) arrogance is a vice (@denlillaapan and myself counting our chickens before the year is hatched).
But that's what makes it entertaining, so let's keep degen betting and counting chickens~~
Should we open a prediction matket to find out who @247bf84fda is? With the proper odds, and thanks to his delicious sense of irony, I'm sure we can trigger him to reveal himself by manipulating the market once more~~
My money is on a famous stingy character...
I see it differently.
I see it as a way to reward/incentivize this other bettor to make the unlikely happen, thanks to his more direct control.
If I lose this bet, I'll feel good about it, because then it means SN is doing better than expected.
True. Those are the edge cases that can fuck it all up.
At this point, I would expect a
yes voter from the 1.4M to either know something we don't (e.g. @ek, who knows about an HR play for the coming months to increase SN adoption) or to actively skew the market in their favor (e.g. @Coinsreporter starting to post 1000s of posts per day).One solution for attempted speech BCIs worked automatically and relied on catching subtle differences between the brain signals for attempted and inner speech. “If you included inner speech signals and labeled them as silent, you could train AI decoder neural networks to ignore them—and they were pretty good at that,” Krasa says.
Their alternate safeguard was a bit less seamless. Krasa’s team simply trained their decoder to recognize a password patients had to imagine speaking in their heads to activate the prosthesis. The password? “Chitty chitty bang bang,” which worked like the mental equivalent of saying “Hey Siri.” The prosthesis recognized this password with 98 percent accuracy.
They go on to say it's still very much work in progress as it doesn't work in many cases. Pretty cool nonetheless and not something i had ever thought about...
Kinda reminds me how my family was shocked when I said that "beautiful" old buildings and churches did not move me, at all. Even "nice" nature views don't give me much pleasure (even though I enjoy very much the physical aspect of hiking).
It's such a given that everyone is supposed to enjoy the same things that it becomes weird when people realize we don't.
