Congratulations to @karanjbhatia for the 4chan post referencing SN and to @AGORA for the BitcoinTalk forum post!
The comment on bitcointalk re: the onion link is kind-of valid. This is what it looks like for me, when I'm not running in anal-security-mode:
which is a good-(ish) fail because it would need exit nodes otherwise, and that would be bad:
@k00b - #813 on the repo sets out a requirement for AWS copilot - but that issue is over a year old. Is that still the requirement?
It's not a requirement. To get proper onion support we need parallel infrastructure for auth. This is just a CORs issue by the looks of it. I can fix it with some config changes.
I think the CORS is good - we shouldn't want to use mixed hidden/exit-noded domains on an onion
I agree. Going to need parallel infra then unless the proper hack eluded me when I was working on it a year ago.
Thanks, mate!

Simply incredible how hostile South Korean culture is towards children. Moms are called parasites & children seen as pests according to Korean reporter interviewed in Gideon Lewis-Kraus’s excellent article on the demographic crisis in the New Yorker.
With such a cultural mindset it is honestly not at all surprising that TFR was just 0.75 in 2024. In fact, it makes the rise in TFR this year all the more remarkable. Other countries with very low TFR (Thailand, Poland, Chile etc) do not have an anti natalist culture at all.

Silly, but made me smile.
My biggest sadness is that I teach students who wouldn't get this
Yet, in this case, they'd get maximum mark, regardless of their knowledge of math or lack thereof.
My kid once had to write an essay for why she wanted to attend a highly selective science academy. I told her to just write, "I like XKCD." Of course, she didn't do that (even though she does like xkcd), and she didn't get in either haha.
Somehow, I doubt she would have gotten if had she followed my advice either
Shit teacher.
My conscience is clear about my teaching.
Probably one of your students~~
I don't blame my students. I actually have great fondness for them. But the truth is most of them wouldn't get this. And it does make me sad that it isn't more common to find the type of students that would.
Yeah, I learnt to appreciate my colleagues' and students' strengths rather than lament their weaknesses...
They are all products of their respective education system, and I can observe wide variability depending on where they are from (Korea, China, India, Europe, etc).
! indeed.
Bull markets attract milkers
Keep those downzappers at the ready
I still rarely use downzapping. had a look at stacker.news/recent/outlawed and it looks like mostly two accounts that are getting the bulk of downzaps these days. Makes me wonder why someone would persist?
There's no notification that you've been downzapped or outlawed, so I'm guessing those bots just keep going until they stop earning anything.

The cleaner uncle commented that I seem to have adapted very fast to my new workplace.
Flattered, I probed, “Uncle how you know?”
He mentioned about me hosting the developer team at the Staff Lounge last week. Then, he brought up about how I was entrusted with my current place - I am blessed with a quiet, charming corner seat! - at the staffroom. Newer teachers would typically be assigned seats near the veteran teachers so that they could understudy them.
“经验是偷不走的。(You can’t fake experience),” he added, his astute observation about life leaving me grinning like a Cheshire cat!
im the guessing the cleaner uncle means school janitor in american talk?
Yes
Great inference skills haha
(Throwback)
No snail anymore… heard he was feeling a bit sluggish.
No snail, no haikus
