Арестован владелец аккаунта на Polymarket, заработавший $400 тыс. на инсайде по Венесуэле

Вчера в США арестовали вояку, который поднял $400к на Polymarket, ставя на выкрадывание Мадуро из Венесуэлы в ночь перед спецоперацией (на фото это он, судя по всему).

The hardest thing about healing isn’t the work itself. It’s the quiet grief of realizing how many years you spent believing the problem was you, when the actual problem was an environment that needed you to believe that in order to keep functioning

О технологиях домашнего производства пластиковых/металлических деталей

Рано или поздно, но наступает такой момент, когда вы осознаёте в полной мере, что возможностей домашнего 3d принтера недостаточно — так как его распечатки не отвечают вашим потребностям, с точки зрения инженерной прочности в первую очередь. Поэтому некоторые начинают задумываться о переходе на более «тяжёлые» технологии — и в первую очередь это касается потребности по работе с металлом, так как это в полной мере открывает большое количество возможностей, до этого...
