We had this exact same problem (the key initially wasn’t a secret but became a secret once we enabled Gemini API with no warnings).

We managed to catch it somewhat early through alerting, so the damage was only $26k.

We asked our Google cloud support rep for a refund - they initially came back with a no but now the case is under further consideration.

I’d escalate this up the chain as much as possible.

In my mind, the ideal product would be an account that invest 100% of my assets in funds of my choice - and has immediate liquidity.

One solution could let me withdraw immediately but and retroactively deducts the last few days of returns (or target a withdrawal fee equivalent to said returns).

Do you know if there’s a regulatory reason this product doesn’t exist?

>That’s approximately a 3% annualized return on investment (1.03^75 ~= 10).

That isn’t accurate, the cash flows should according discounted by the period they’re received in (this contract produces some profits in year 1, more in year 2, etc). What you’ve done is treated it as if the 10x payment is received all at once in year 75.

>Get 5 friends to vouch for you

This approach is used by wechat, you can't make your own account and can only be invited by an existing user. I suspect that wechat has reached enough market penetration that this is now worth it.

Sure, but his son (who was also killed in a separate strike) was 4 when 9/11 happened and was 16 when he was killed.

Tucker doesn’t claim that his signal account was hacked. He says that he was told “the nsa pulled your texts with another person you were texting.”

This could mean that the other person was hacked, or even that they weren’t using signal at all and were using SMS.

I know that many constituent colleges at the University of Cambridge are the only address in their post code. For example, Trinity College is CB2 1TQ.

However, hundreds of people live in each college (they just have large mailrooms), so on a practical level you’d likely need to put your name down if you wanted to get mail.
