It's a real shame what WaPo has become. I really have a hard time picturing another great newspaper based in the city in my lifetime.

For those of you that don't know and might be interested, grim streams some of the development on Twitch from time to time. It's been nice to just have it on while co-working.

ESEA shipped their client and anti-cheat with a free bitcoin miner back in the day: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ESEA_League#Bitcoin_mining_inc...

I might have missed it but do the designs come with pcb as well?

It is getting to the point where I am really considering giving up games that require anti-cheats that only support windows.

They were already getting to be too much but this is getting crazy.

I like this idea. I would even settle for the mixed income housing that a lot of development companies here (DC) were supposed to build when they received subsidies from the government.

I just got back to trying to use my resmed and I am curious. How did you get used to wearing it? I am really trying but I am not having much luck.

This seems pretty cool. I was a big fan of Spire[1] and their device that monitored steps and breathing. Spire seems to have completely left the consumer market and I would love another device that does that stuff.

It gets even better.

With CSGO third parties were essentially selling games for actual currency instead of credit with Valve and using skins as currency for gambling on esports matches. A few of them also came up with other gambling games that didn't even involve esports.

It was also a great vehicle for money laundering: https://www.theguardian.com/games/2019/oct/30/counter-strike...

Wild times.

Yeah out of the box they are poof but I wonder if people would be comfortable with just accessing some of these useful shortcuts in the same positions in another layer?

I experiment around with my layouts and keyboards a little bit so I am probably out of touch.

Another ergo keyboard I am on the lookout for is the Glove80. Been happy with the moonlander but I am really interested in something completely wireless and not as expensive as the AM Hatsu.

To add to this, a lot of times expungement isn't very useful because there are a ton of private companies that scrape these records (including arrest records) constantly. Some of these companies have business models built around conducting background checks and an unfortunate number of them have business models that rely solely on getting people to pay them to "remove" these records.

Unfortunately this is sadly common. If people are interested in the racist history of home ownership in America I highly recommend The Color of Law: A Forgotten History of How Our Government Segregated America

It's bad, really bad. It essentially robbed Black Americans of significant generational wealth.

Ontario police were using data collected in the name of COVID-19 outside of its intended purpose: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/covid-police-database...

It took the legal action of Human Rights organizations to end their access to it.

I have this keyboard on the way either this month or next month. I am excited. It will be my first ergo and ortho board.

Are there any services like this that do the job of a streaming pc too?

Yep. DC is going through this now despite the rich history of DC being a chocolate city.

I have been enjoying this conference so far. The presentations have been great.

Many thanks to the people who put this together in such a short timeline.

There is a modern version in the works: https://www.blackbythenumbers.com/

I'm looking for a way to get the larger, non-POC tech community involved.

Dope to hear about Chicago though and greetings from D.C.

Yep the ACLU did a study about this as well: https://www.aclu.org/blog/privacy-technology/surveillance-te...

Have you considered doing some of this content on twitch instead?

You can take the content you make on Twitch (with a change to possibly get affiliate or partner while the science and technology section is booming) and then take that content and post it to YouTube.
