I would really appreciate any feedback or testers for my new Roblox game. It's a mecha style fast paced tower defense game where drones are attacking your fort

yeah, not sure why it didn't get upvoted

he said his seed phrases were in lastpass. There is no 2fa protection for private keys if the assets are in his crypto wallet and he's custodying them.

the problem is most capitalists wouldn't dare venture into that arena due to how intrenched the incumbents are. This makes the market highly inefficient due to lack of competition. Good on Cuban for daring to go whether other capitalists will not. I hope it works out for him.

thought this was total...it's for 1 year...insane...

exactly this. I'd been at Amazon for 5 years, so I know how quickly these things can change and I wasn't about to get caught in the crossfires.

Oh, that and I doubled my comp leaving ;)

I recently left Amazon for a fully remote position and that was my sole decision making factor.

I was just thinking after searching for an emoji on Google and copy-pasting it into a document for the hundredth time: "surely there's got to be a better way than this".

at that point, just give them the A ;)

no, but I'm Western. I'm actively looking to disconfirm my bias and it would be a great service if you managed to find some.

would be interesting to do western + eastern, or at least another with just eastern.

This is great! Wanted to build one myself as well!

There is also rekt's feed:

huh? amazon is down 10% on the year. All that's done is demoralize the new hires further.

can confirm, am an Amazon engineer, morale is terrible, am also leaving this month.

doesn't seem very Amazonian to me lol

because it's a joke lol

came here to ask the same thing! :D

"How to solve it" [1] was helpful for me in this regard, but it isn't really condensed like this blog post.

After you finish "how to solve it", you can read the more advanced "Mathematics and Plausible Reasoning" [2]

I can't tell if this is satire or not

Also, I just tried this BAYC image URL and didn't get any hits:

the fact that this is necessary shows you what an abject failure the current state of NFTs is.

shouldn't this be open sourced?

this is dope! I've been thinking about building something this for a few months now. Glad to see that I don't have to anymore! :D

agreed! the real-time processing should be bespoke and is where I think Twitter previously shined. The data processing wasn't a point of differentiation for them and so it makes sense for them to offload it to a cloud provider and let someone else deal with the operations associated with it.

oh, also, what's next, the iota architecture?

It's funny, while I was reading the "before" architecture I found myself thinking "my god, why don't they just move to a cloud already? this would be much simpler if they did". I "turned the page" and there was GCP :D.

Also, I wonder why they went with GCP instead of AWS. Does Twitter have a deal with Google that I'm not aware of?

Thanks!

got a link to those videos in particular?

It's not "incredibly complex".

lol...have you ever given any thought whatsoever to performing a similar exploit? If you have, you wouldn't be brushing this off so nonchalantly

for now

what is wrong with that? Knowing that eventually it will blow up and knowing when that will occur are two different things.
