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."

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.

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

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.

This is a bit of a orthogonal argument as this only deals with exchanges directly and never touches the Bitcoin protocol directly. Agreed that the choice of language is an odd one as there's no "high performance"/HFT involved here.

We've never had a breach.

We've had side-by-side diffing for about a year. What the redesign has (apparently) done, is bring forth those features, as we're seeing more and more people discover them today.
