Dropped oldest daughter off at college on Tuesday, much to my chagrin.
Talked to her yesterday. She said on the FIRST NIGHT (classes haven't even started yet), some girl in her suite was drunk and walking around bragging about being drunk and brought in two guys into their dorm (she heard their voices unexpectedly when leaving the bathroom). I told her that's incredibly dumb, irresponsible and unsafe (not just being drunk but inviting unknown dudes into the dorm). I said she needs to keep an eye on that one and if something similar happens again to report it.
I'm tempted to just go ahead and send an anon email to the dean or campus housing admin or something, threatening to pull out or litigation. Some type of moral shaming, maybe. Thoughts? Too soon?

Hope it works out for. As a player of 20+ years I find most D&D podcasts to be crime, especially Critical Role (please don't stone me). I like the ones where it's just a bunch of friends playing. Sometimes boring, sometimes genuinely entertaining, but nothing contrived.

Important to remember that even though we dislike these three letter agencies on whole, they are not a monolith.

For the the record, NOSTR protocol and various apps not necessarily privacy-focused, so much as it is decentralized and censorship resistant, much like Bitcoin at the base layer. Privacy best obtained by other means, though there is a lot of ongoing development to enhance privacy by default.
The last one I tried that allows you set up Lightning wallet with minimal KYC (requires signing up with an email and then an SMS verification code) is Speed Wallet.
I'll see if there are any others I'm not thinking of. Lots of development in the space happening at a rapid pace trying to route around all these obstacles

Are you using Primal? If so then it's probably the Strike integration that allows you to set up a wallet. Separate thing from NOSTR as a protocol and the Twitter-like apps using it.
You can create a custodial Lightning wallets through other means and then add it to your profile.

Another fun story from the front lines of TradFi fiat world with KYC/AML...
A bank recently fined millions of dollars for KYC/AML "failures" asks my consulting company to take a look at their SAS Anti-money Laundering application platform because all the performance issues they're having (https://www.sas.com/en_us/software/anti-money-laundering.html)
They have an old, out-dated version (not even the vendor wants to touch it because it's so old) and a newer version (Canada/US).
Leaving aside all the manual steps they have in their process that could be automated (we're talking SPREADSHEETS), they are complaining that when users click on a certain Search button in the UI, for certain cases, it completely locks up the database and makes the app non-functional for all users
Presumably because the query is taking too long and has a read-lock.
My guess is we're talking a least several million records across a few tables, and the query is probably not fully optimized
But then we asked to see hardware specs and their database VM said it had 0.9 CPUs allocated to it
My co-worker and I were utterly confused, see attached convo.https://m.primal.net/Jtpu.jpg
Then I was looking through an old spreadsheet they had of issues with recommendations for fixes, and a cost estimate from internal and external resources. One was for "increasing JVM heap memory" and they had like "estimate of up to two months and $40k"
It's literally just updating a few config files from "1028" to "2046" or whatever, and then restarting the services. Maybe 30 minutes of work.
Incompetence and grift are everywhere.
Peak fiat world with so many things just barely getting by, held together by duct tape and Rube Goldberg processes, with very few people with the WILL and the BALLS to make the hard decision to fix things
