Couldn’t they simply use an encryption algorithm that has two private keys and they control one?

Mm, I'll wait for Brutus' release.

I was anonymous within my business for quite some time (~$X,XXX,XXX/ARR). It got to the point where my demos/sales calls would begin to question why they can't find anything about me online, for instance, "Why should my business trust you? I can't find anything about you?".

At a certain point I had come to a realization that things operate a certain way for 99% of people and companies and being contrarian doesn't help. If you want to win you need to play their game and that may mean having a public presence and playing on their playing field (that field may be LinkedIn, Github and other common fields).

I will say you don't have to become an influencer asshat which is what I want to avoid at all costs. You don't need to be "famous" and build a following of any kind. I focus my time on networking and building trust within my domain.

Looks like fun. Too bad you can't sign up anonymously or simply with a username and password. What a shame.

Can someone explain this vtoon trend to me? It doesn't seem to be driven by anonymity because their real name is easily findable, so I assume it's something else? It seems very common, especially in certain communities.

Is fitting the index in ram really that important? Obviously it is fast, but if you can get away with storing it on a fast disk like an nvme gen4 then why not?

Maybe I'm crazy, but I kind of hope all of these crypto scammers/swindlers go down and from the ashes Satoshi rises again, as if he knew the swindlers were coming ever since Wikileaks adopted crypto and he left.

My suggestion is to go for it.

With that being said, do take the time to examine the git commit messages and code itself.

I have certainly caught myself from publishing projects that contained words or jokes that would not go over well in 2022 :)

I have been using Vim for 20 years. I have tried other editors and even gave them a fair try (1+ months of use) but always end up back in vim.

Or a covert ad for the substack.. given their only other submission was the substack. Either way it doesn't really matter, it was a fair post and brought up an interesting idea of stealth browsers though I don't think they work all that well.

Any tips/code examples for your webkit solution(s)? Where does one begin with using webkit for scraping?

I think using anti-fingerprinting is itself a fingerprint. I imagine it would be easier to hide in the noise of regular browsers.

Seems like a fairly shallow (content marketing fluff) substack to be honest. There are better places to follow, like: https://www.trickster.dev/post/

That's fair-- if it's in a package, looks, smells and tastes like bacon it's probably bacon :)
anxiously

That's not true-- you can buy uncured bacon. It's simply "uncut pork belly" which many companies turn into bacon.

We buy our pork belly direct from a farm and it hasn't been touched with anything.

"Ruined your life" is a bit dramatic, eh? It's a messenger. Perhaps you're putting too much weight into both of them.

Fair enough, but there's a huge gap between vaccines and products like Raid Shadow Legends and Snuggies.

I wanted the network-- not the money.

Couldn’t it have been an early mining client that was custom built? Why satoshi?

Likewise, you can fail to get into YC with a product. I applied with a product that has made over 2 million and has zero employees or funding and was not accepted.

Freedom. Freedom to work when I want, if I want, on whatever I want, or not at all.

Not dealing with people, offices or maintaining any kind of professional image.

Not sure what to call it, but a sort of liberation knowing I don’t rely on a company or external force to make my way through this life. A sort of stability and certainty I guess.
