To clarify... nope. In your instance the man gets your expression of consent, but very much does not have your internal consent.
I edited my post to clarify a bit more that informed consent is a specific term in medical ethics, and probably doesn't mean what you think it means. Thanks!

Highlights an edge case of informed consent (medical consent).
Basically, it's impossible to "internally give" consent when done under any sort of threat.
In other words, she may "express" consent, but not "internally give consent."
What does that mean? Probably, she'll get strongly supervised treatment and nothing untoward happens. But then what happens if she suffers a serious side effect of the treatment?
Yes! I’ve been waiting to get out the swords again for years….
This looks incredible and magical to me. How do you learn to create things like this as a mostly web programmer? Vectorization, etc I had no idea could integrate with gpt etc but honestly it looks kind of obvious/effortless to the author.
Chatgpt recommended it for the upvotes.
Or a use after free bug from an unlucky player. With millions (billions?) of account-hours over the honeypot period surely at least a few bans are outrageous coincidences
On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups.
This the first sentence of the HN rules. If you only want “hacking-related news” you’re going to have to tolerate some other bits on HN.
Almost certainly by satellite. To wit, every iPhone 14 now has an emergency text feature that works via satellite-- you could potentially just use one of those and send everything base64 encoded.

The balloon isn't on there, and the (presumed) fighter jets that are escorting it aren't either but you can see the fuel tankers.
They’re budgeting $30 billion on capex next year so I don’t think your stock buyback comments are accurate.
Bogus. You’re assuming they invested all their dollars at the year 0 (peak) price an and sold everything at the 20 year trough. Of course that’s impossible, they invested over their entire careers which included intervals of much lower prices. So much should be obvious by just looking at the sp500 graph of performance over time. There’s no period where dollar cost averaging over twenty years gave a result like you’re saying.
The article mentions this, but that’s strongly enough in my opinion. With fly you have no managed PostgreSQL. In my opinion, it’s not really comparable on cost to aws when Postgres is in the stack.
You do read about interesting hacks where someone will set up rds in a region that may be single digit milliseconds away from a fly region. then, presumably, you could put PG bouncer on a sort of bastion host that connects to the fly wire guard VPN. But obviously, there’s no guarantee that the latency will always be that good.
I mean, he went blind in one eye after a botched medical procedure and can hardly see at all with the other one. I don’t think he’s been getting some amazing life preserving treatment or something.
I guess I’m just making the point all nonterninating are hard to codify in non mathematical fonts formatting etc. For instance using that 0.88888 example, that decimal very much does not precisely equal 8/9. you’d either have to keep writing 8s into infinity or hope everybody who copies/Padres your writing has a way to preserve the indicator of repeating digits.
I think you’re technically equating non terminating to irrational but the looser point seems fair to me— it’s hard to codify precise decimals.
Note the ties to Cincinnati, where in 2018 a young boy called 911 multiple times when he was trapped in a minivan seat that folded in a way he ceased trapped. The operator didn’t believe him, a cop did a cursory search after two calls even though the make and model of the van were given. The boy slowly suffocated to death.
His last words were telling the operator to tell his mom he loved her.
Makes you wonder if their system flagged his call and it wasn’t entirely the result of a completely incompetent 911 operator and cop.
CNBC says 8-10% is likely, with the real numbers known once the filings come out. And 8-10% of $250 million is... a lot more than SBF's claimed few hundred dollars.
Armchair thoughts-- makes you wonder what the game is here-- the prosecutors want a high enough bail that SBF can make, but not so high that he wouldn't pay the bond.
For reasons-- 1) It proves he has more funds. 99% odds he will declare bankruptcy once the civil judgements come, so this refutes SBF claims that he only has a few hundred dollars in a bank account somewhere.
2) Making him collect funds from more than one source so they can flush out some of his hidden buckets. Who knows how many wallets, cash and favors he's hiding, but the Feds and Internet investigators will be watching. Especially for movements on the blockchain.
Having followed a lot of the SBF discussion since he keeps giving interviews, here's the FAQ--
1) How did you lose $5ish billion of customer deposits?
- They were deposited to Alameda, a totally independent hedge fund run by an unrelated party (my ex-girlfriend who lives with me). We credited Alameda without properly debiting Alameda on FTX.
2) Why didn't you track them?
- There was a bug in the dashboard. I made a boneheaded mistake. Oopsies.
3) What happened in the days leading up to the collapse?
- It was an attack from Binance, they're the bad guys. They cashed out and broke FTX.
4) Wait but they cashed out their assets, how would that effect people who had cash and other assets at FTX?
- Well we didn't comingle margin and non-margin customer accounts/assets if that's what you mean. It's more that we had this terms of service that was really complicated. Yes there's a part of the terms of service that says we won't lend out your assets, but there's this other part somewhere that says we will that applies to everyone even though it says it only applies to margin accounts. It's because of complex accounting. This is all actually just really complex and I don't remember all of it.
How does that look like bad ethics? You know you’re buying a walled garden with an Apple. If you care, then don’t buy Apple. That doesn't make Apple's ethics bad. It just goes against your prefences.
That’s because you’re reading the general news and not the primary sources.
Google Sheets, Drive and Slack. I'm not comfortable asking for it because I can't contribute.
Benthos looks like a cool project but thanks for turning me on to Nifi. Nifi has a lot more processors out of the box.
Edit: I’m speechless but see below
You think copilot is self-sustaining/profitable?
Yes.
Our diagnosis is that individual developers do not pay for tools.
Throwing salt on the wound here but that’s just false. I mean, there’s copilot and it’s alternative that I can’t think of the name right now. more broadly there’s Jet brains ides, visual studio, Productivity apps, etc. look at product hunt or appsumo or popular show hns. Devs pay for tools, just not Kite.
Edit: I should clarify, enough devs pay for tools to make the market sustainable. Not all devs pay for tools.
SEO. Really.
Solution: make a small change to the report screen. Right now it just says report or block. Write a sentence in a subdued font weight/size and color that says “this report button will do Xyz.” Then resubmit. See what happens. It’s kind of like all those times when you were learning how to code that you would make a small change, run the program and hope for the correct output. Rinse, repeat and eventually you’ll look into the right solution.
I'm not saying it's not a problem but after a few minutes of research I think some context is useful.
The current source of lead seems mostly (maybe almost entirely?) from "lead service lines," which is the pipe between the street and the home. And, new installations of those lines has been illegal since 1986 in the US.
You know what else is prone to ignition? Gasoline.
The article conspicuously ignores gas car fires.
I think the only actual point is that BEVs are more likely to kind of spontaneously combust after corroding? Abs that bev fires are hard to put out.
