This works for me:

  import hid

  VID = 0x046D
  HID = 0xB023 # 0xB35B

  if __name__ == "__main__":
      h = hid.device()
      h.open(VID, HID)
      h.set_nonblocking(1)

      # this works for keyboard
      # h.write([0x11, 0x01, 0x09, 0x1F, 0x01] + [0] * 15)

      # this works for mouse
      h.write([0x11, 0x01, 0x0A, 0x1E, 0x01] + [0] * 15)
      h.close()

I'm a software engineer with about 20 years of professional experience, focusing mostly on SaSS products in the tech/fintech space. I previously founded Bitbucket, and I'm the co-founder of Upvest. I've worn many hats, from CEO/CTO to most recently CPO, so I'm open to a wide range of roles, as long as it's something interesting and rewarding.


Apparently their supposed research resulted in a fundamental misunderstanding what an affiliate program actually is, i.e. not the same as "paying for reviews."


Except here, that is exactly what wirecutter is using affiliate programs for.

That's like saying cryptography is faulty since if someone encrypted an important document and threw away the key, it would be irrecoverable. That's the point. As for solutions, there are many: use a multi-sig contract with several owners (like a spouse and/or lawyer), or simply leave the seed phrase to be released in your will. The proposed solutions that "may or may not work" are easy to test, I'm not really sure where you get your information.


> That's like saying cryptography is faulty since if someone encrypted an important document and threw away the key, it would be irrecoverable.

No, it is like saying cryptography has important long term consequences. I don't even see any synonyms for "fault" in the post.

There are mechanisms if someone is careful about their estate planning, the issue is we have a great deal of evidence that most people don't do estate planning [0] and the courts have to clean up the mess.

Kkarakk is completely correct in saying that a (potentially non-technical) spouse or heir is being exposed to an exciting new way of losing large sums of money that they are entitled to. This is clearly a disadvantage of cryptocurrency, even if it is an intentional part of the design.

what happens when your fancy multi-sig contract is disputed by non-technical folk and the matter goes to court? court could easily throw all that shit out and say the crypto goes to your first wife instead. no guarantee that it will work at all.


Do you have a source for this? I can only find reports from "At the Abyss", which are uncorroborated.


somewhat described in the book Victory, by Peter Schweizer


I can't speak for everyone, but I'm pretty married to OSX at this point. Using anything else would be too much time invested in setting up the environment as I'm used to, and finding similar applications for everything. Windows 10 is atrocious, and Linux isn't much better.


Cassandra also functions as a time-series database, and does quite well with tick data such as this. Many financial institutions rely on it.


They can vary per user between exchanges, depending on how much volume they have, etc.


I do not disagree with your point. Is this a reason to leave it out?

It feels like talking to a stock broker / investment advisor who gives all the numbers while leaving out any mention of their cut. In this case the Token Spread site doesn't seem to get anything out of it, unless they somehow tie into exchange affiliate programs wherever they link them up.
