Follow up: This situation is similar to when England wanted Delhi to be rid of cobras so they started offering rewards for dead cobras. The citizens of Delhi responded to this incentive by farming cobras.

What's the difference? It's a systemic flaw.

If there exists an incentive for finding vulnerabilities, there exists an incentive for introducing vulnerabilities. Bug bounties work great for closed source companies because there doesn't exist a misalignment of incentives. If Johnny keeps writing buggy code, he gets fired. If anonymous234 gets his buggy pull request approved, confederate anonymous456 gets to make a few bucks.

Follow up #2: For the skeptical downvoters, I'll put my money where my mouth is and attempt to capture the bounties using the method described above.

Seems like it would quite easy to game the system. Make contributions with known vulnerabilities and then submit an anonymous bug report when the contribution is approved.

Dig some searching and found patio11's response to a similar question: https://www.indiehackers.com/forum/you-can-now-use-stripe-at...

So in case anyone else is wondering, this is what's offered for the additional $300. For myself personally, it doesn't seem worth it at the moment.

Asking for a prescription for a painkiller will make doctors label you as a drug seeker.

Asking for a referral for an x-ray/ultrasound for your back pain will often make them go "Here, why don't you try this opioid first and see if it gets better?"

Right, which is why Bloomberg published a story about China inserting backdoor hardware on its chips. A story that was refuted by the CEOs of the companies supposedly hit by the attack and by the very sources cited in Bloomberg themselves. A story that hasn't produced a single physical compromised chip as evidence despite Bloomberg claiming that there were tens of thousands of units affected.

It's a well established but little known fact that sleep deprivation is an extremely effective short term treatment for depression. [1]

Obviously I am not recommending that anyone try it without medical supervision, but people should at least know that it's an option.

If you were really hustling, it shouldn't have taken years. A hustler like myself could have done it in months.

I was initially skeptical, but your video made me change my mind. Why the hell is the flood illuminator going off when you're just looking at the Control Center?

This is one of the most hilariously wrong things I've ever heard of. So if I send an invoice to billing@facebook.com and reply from (my account) uh_what@facebook.com agreeing to the terms, Facebook legally owes me the amount on the invoice?

Your response is ridiculous. As a native New Yorker, his comments are spot-on.

His post (and this thread) is a good resource for weighing the pros and cons of moving to any city. Many people move to NYC with ridiculous expectations of living their dream and become despondent when they realize the subways smell like urine and the people can be as cold as the weather.

Flux is free...?

Your post kind of rambles on and fails to address the point that OP is making: Physics is, in fact, stuck. It's been almost 100 years since the initial clash between classic mechanics and quantum theory, and how much closer are we to unification?

And you take an extremely condescending tone while addressing OP's lack of humility while making statements attacking him for "especially from one not understanding how science actually works."

How does science actually work? Are we supposed to follow Popper? Or Kuhn? Or Feyerabend? Should we go with logical positivism or empiricism?

Would love to hear the story behind this lesson if you're willing to share.

Ask yourself why you're on this site.

Is it to steadfastly argue positions far outside your domain expertise or engage in discourse and learn?

The extra energy will kickstart processes that nurture life.

Why would that be the case? If this were the case, the biological density of the highest-temperature locations in the ocean should be significantly higher than average. This has not been observed. Quite the opposite, actually.

Secondly, in thermodynamic terms, heat is the least useful form of energy. Heat is often the waste product of a chemical/mechanical process and cannot be easily be converted into other forms of energy without significant loss.

And no offense, but water and carbon are both trivial well defined concepts. Energy is also fairly well defined.

You should edit your comment to remove a certain word beginning with the letter "o". It could cost you big time in court if someone decides to infringe your patent.

Just out of curiosity, is there a specific reason you don't want to use face unlock?

Seems like that would be by design.

I bought a custom built machine and my serial # was denied as well.

Got in touch with support and they claimed that the manufacture date was outside the applicable range (doesn't make any sense since it's custom built). Will have to escalate to someone higher up since it seems that the lower level staff aren't even aware of this program yet.

Holy hell, that explains my situation perfectly. My trackpad becomes unresponsive after a few hours use, but works perfectly fine in the morning. The battery must be expanding and interfering with the trackpad/haptic engine...

> As impressive as your achievement is, I'm equally impressed that Google finally started addressing their perceived ageism problem.

>> Yeah one anecdote, ageism must be solved! Good job Google, we did it!

It's posters like you that turn people off HN.
