DaVinci Resolve (a very popular Color correcting and video editing software) is needed to work effectively with some of the ProRes Color schemes. Its basic version is free but there are paid upgrades to it. This app is likely a funnel to their software and other peripherals
Yes, there are even people on HN that have reported successful redemption of tether for USD. You can ask people directly. It's not like this is a rare thing that never happens. If people weren't able to do so you would expect people to actually make claims aginst it.
100% of $0. Tether is entirely a scam by intentional criminals and not a single dollar is in a vault.
They say they're 1:1 backed but have committed obvious financial fraud around this. There's no benefit to them to be even 95% backed, it's 100% or jail, so why would they bother?
This is how they maintain the peg perfectly - it's all fake. They "redeem" their friend's Tether with their personal funds but they won't even try if there's a run.
Yep, very true. Some places are even asking for a tip when I just order for pickup which doesn’t make sense, it’s just a voluntary service charge at that point? As a result I and many others are just going out less. This means less income for those in the service industry, so they might need to charge a bigger tip from those who do choose to dine in. Not a great feedback loop
I'm also very unclear on who gets the tip for a pickup order. In my state, it's illegal to share the tips with back-of-house staff (ie. the people cooking the food). Am I just tipping the person who hands me the food? The online system took my order, took my payment, and printed the ticket. The food preparation staff made my food. I walk in, give my name to the person at the counter, and they hand me the bag. That person is the only one who serves customers directly in that system so they're the only one eligible for tips in my state.
Part of the "tip for pickup" is that many restaurants ran on "pooled tips" where the tips would support/subsidize not only the waitresses, but also the bus boy, cooks, etc.
When they went full-online during covid with only pickup, they wanted to keep those people, and so suggested that you tip even on pickup.
I'd much rather just see increased prices where tips are no longer "needed" but I don't know how we'll get there.
As with any application a small risk of critical security issues (such as buffer overflows, remote code execution) exists; the Rosenpass application is written in the Rust programming language which is much less prone to such issues.
I think their formal analysis is only security/crypto related, at least for the time being.
Separate the things that musk controls (Tesla, Space X, starlink, Solar City, etc) and musk the person (Forcing animal testing, calling rescue operators pedophiles, market manipulation, etc) and it’s easy not to like musk the person. Let’s also not pretend like he’s doing any of those ventures out of the goodness of his heart
that still doesn't help a ton. Solar City/Tesla has backed out of a huge number of deals for solar installs unless the client pays more than the signed contracts. the 'solar roof' was YEARS late and way overpriced.
For Tesla, we still don't have fully self driving cars, but its always coming in Q4 of this year. Products are announced WAY too soon. Its been years since the cybertruck and new roadster were announced and demoed, and still none exist. This isn't their first new model, they should understand how the building of factories work, etc.
I particularly liked the Tesla bot announcement, where it was clear they hadn't even thought about it until just before they announced it. There's also the Dojo which they hyped for years as something that will give them the cutting edge imminently and still AFAICT isn't doing anything yet, meanwhile a couple more generations of TPU have been designed and productionized en masse
Putting “here’s how we changed on a previous product” doesn’t really need to be on a small corporate site. It being a sort of investigation fits better on GitHub where fewer people will accidentally stumble across it from their current product.
There is a whole lot of bigging up their current product. That blog post is part of their marketing campaign. And the entire point of it is so people will get to their product.
Also:
* it's mixed up with all their other marketing material for this product.
* it's in their current product's repository
It's more likely people will stumble across it when looking at their product.
As I said in my edit. The reason for it being on their GitHub is to increase the likihood of GitHub stars which they use as social proof.
