"This vulnerability is probably a good example of something with a sub-$1000 value on any non-bounty market."

Crazy statement. This would easily be worth more to malicious actors

It's more like a marathon, sure you're in a race but people don't really care about your position in it unless you're near the front. Completing it on its own gives a feeling of achievement

You should consider adding DNS checks prior to WHOIS. Whois is unreliable and you can be quickly blocked, doing a quick SOA DNS request can help reduce your WHOIS queries when the domain definitely exists (no SOA is not enough to confirm domain is unregistered but existing SOA is enough to confirm a domain is registered)

I don't think a banks email being there indicates they use the service, more likely a customer of theirs uses TeleMessage and as a result the comms between that bank customer and the bank are in the breach

"Wealth inequality, while high, is still roughly where it was in 2007"

This is not whats represented in the source you cited?

In the graph titled "Top 10% and Bottom 50% Wealth Shares in The UK 1900-2020" you can clearly see the wealth owned by the top 10% increased from 54.4% in 2007 to 57% in 2020 and likely even higher now 5 years later.

The voting system (FPTP) in the US results in a two party system which isn't representative of a good democratic system imo. Considering all of the different political divides I don't think two parties sufficiently cover the spectrum of opinions/stances.

To say the British monarchy "owns" Canada and Australia is comical

Nooo don't double leverage, hedge your bet by betting you won't get out of debt :)

He was a human man! /s

The idea is that people will be more interested in saving with a low interest rate with the chance to win more than having the higher interest rate.

In Ireland the state runs this thing called prize bonds which is a similar idea https://www.statesavings.ie/help-support/help-articles/how-d...

I think the Taylor Swift example is more awkward - to have an award named after you and then given to you and never given to anyone else!

At the top of the homepage there's a menu bar with categories, if you scroll all the way to try right of that there's a "new to you" option. Try it out :)

You need to read the basic outline of WW2.

Hong Kong handover is not recent and I don't see how you can claim it has "gone badly for local residents".

HSBC has had money laundering scandals with amounts in excess of 1b$

I disagree, the problem is clearly on Zendesks end.

I held mainly dollars on the exchange at the time. I see your point regarding the crypto holders on the exchange though.

Your post reminds me of the song Rät by Penelope Scott

I think a cap on bet sizes is reasonable but typically platforms outright ban pros. A bookie can only go out of business to pros if they are terrible at setting the odds

You're presenting a false dichotomy. Cars are a form of transport which has obvious benefits. Even unhealthy foods are food which is y'know the thing people consume to live.

What are the benefits to keeping gambling? Does the entertainment value offset the societal harms?

AFAIK there are generally basic restrictions on being able to engage in options trading and I don't think the platforms are trying to encourage you to make more options trades in the same way gambling companies do. It's also highly regulated

The article is from 2014 and BTC doesn't even use SHA-1 anyway.

I disagree, a lot of the interviews are quite humanizing and entertaining to watch (entertainment has value) and plenty of them being up early musical influences and encounters which might not be covered as much elsewhere (sometimes even forgotten by the artist themselves)

I don't see how this could be interpreted as denying public access to DNS registration data? It's literally just asking that whois not be used as a mechanism for CAs to validate ownership for the issuing of SSL certs. People can still run whois queries if the proposal is employed

A few attempts with chstgpt managed it: "Hardware companies writing software is like watching a train wreck in slow motion. Software companies? They just crash at regular speed."

We don't know how exactly how the trigger mechanism worked. It was an import of pager batteries that were intercepted and replaced, it's plausible that someone else using a pager in the country would be affected if they had received a pager battery from the same batch

You don't need to. Most of us will never understand the complexity of banking either
