I ran into that too. Turns out that you need to add in the path you want to search when invoking the command. If it's your current working directory, use `.`
Because the next person will know there's a good chance you'll give them a cash reward, and that will tip the "immorally take all the cash" vs "return it and hope for a reward" balance more in favour of it being returned.
I would have thought that was completely obvious so maybe that's not what you were asking?
The places you're most likely to get your wallet back in the world are the places you're also less likely to get a reward. The reward for returning a wallet is knowing you're doing your part to make the place you live in a nice place to live.
I think A16Z and the companies they’ve funded have done a great deal of good for the world. The very web browser you’re typed your angry comment into is a technology pioneered by one of its two founders.
Being anti-VC is essential being against technological and economic progress.
It’s just that the analogy breaks down a bit. It’s fair to say a dropped wallet in a city is a one-shot game—it’s reasonable to expect neither the participants nor their acquaintances will ever encounter each other again; whereas a security vulnerability is closer to a repeated one—it’s a fairly small world. (Some kind of neighbourly behaviour would work better here, but then again, it’s more difficult to find a universal experience of that kind.) I didn’t misunderstand this, but perhaps GP did?..
You're using the wrong line of thought on the analogy here.
The value of the wallet is not the cash you'd directly lose inside of it. The value is getting your ID and cards back without them being copied by someone else, along with any other identifying information.
The value of having and up front and easy to use bug bounty system is it's easier to use then selling it off to some blackhats (hopefully). Those blackhats may otherwise scrape all your s3 buckets or somehow otherwise run up a zillion dollars of charges over a holiday with your keys.
You'll still be using your hand on the vicinity, not just some paper, plus water spraying microjets of shit everywhere, and several other factors besides.
The bidet is leaving your ass cleaner, not your hand.
and the extremely difficult to access mechanism for moving anywhere from one to three small, perpetually damp pipes into position inside the bowl, themselves accessorized with numerous little hinges, cavities, crevices to collect and accumulate offal in effectively unclean-able (but mostly out-of-sight) recesses.
Although initially intrigued, after staying in Japan for a few weeks I came to despise those overcomplicated, ironically un-hygenic toilet systems - especially in public facilities, and tried to avoid using them as much as possible.
On the other hand I greatly preferred the old fashioned squat style setup, I would seem to be a lot more practical of a solution on a number of leven.
Are you making things up? The norm, if there's a bidet, is for it to be button controlled. Even a lot of public toilets have button controlled bidets at this point.
Some really old public parks will have squatters, and in the past these bathrooms would also not have had toilet paper (because the assumption is that you'd bring your own tissue paper with you - this is one of the reasons they hand out tissue papers with advertising). But nowadays basically all toilets have paper, and most have nice new bidets.

They implied toilets with button controlled bidets are "luxury" toilets, and that most toilets they came across were in bad shape.
I'm saying that the norm in a lot of Japan now, for public toilets, is what they called out as being "luxury" toilets.
Their experience is so outside of the norm that it's either extremely outdated, or exaggerated to make a point (and the point is related to how things are unsanitary, so it has a tinge of painting Japan as a whole as being unsanitary).
… I have to think there’s also probably some manner of aerisolization when you spray with water too.
I’m actually really confused by why people like bidets so much. Maybe I just don’t get how they work? On paper, it just seems more prone to the aforementioned issue and also getting the rest of your groinal region as dirty as your anus.
As a fairly hirsute gentleman, a bidet has been life changing for me. I am so much cleaner— the only way to be even cleaner would be to get in the shower! Now maybe that is all in my head?
But honestly if you’ve ever tried to clean, say, peanut butter out of a shag carpet using only dry paper… well you have some ideas of what my struggle has been. With apologies for the graphic image; hopefully it elicits a chuckle from someone :)
I've posted below about squat toilets, but you might want to try them if they are an option. Honestly, I'd glad I practiced a bit and learned to balance in a squat than have to sit on the (usually filthy) seats in most public toilets. But one of the most interesting things is that when you squat, your posterior is in a much more suitable position for the activity and there's a lot less cleanup required. Not always, but fairly often, the first wipe already results in such a clean tissue that you don't even need to bother with a second wipe. YMMV of course, and it also depends what you've been eating!
Some of the best, minimal-cleanup shits I've had were in Japan on a squat toilet. Also in the woods, over a cat hole; the ergonomics of squatting to poop work in our favor.
I mean, normally I wouldn’t share, but you asked… my wife and I had terrible hemorrhoids to the point I was considering going to the doctor from using toilet paper. I bought a bidet and I’ve never had issues again. I’m happy to say my anus is the least inflamed it’s been in my life, and the hemorrhoids have completely gone away for us both.
If you had shit on your hands, would you consider them clean after wiping them with a paper towel a few times, or would you want to wash them with water? The same applies for your butt.
Different regions of the body, and different uses. Around the anus there's bacteria in a nice warm moist environment to go to town. I don't open doors with my asshole, so I'm happy with enough wipes to get any excess poop off, followed by a spray from a cheap cold-water bidet (or diaper sprayer, left over from when our child was in cloth diapers), followed by a wipe for drying.
The washlet I have has a dryer function but it doesn't work all that well. I'm told this is pretty common and most people still need to use some paper to dry themselves. There's far less risk of fecal contamination of your hands while drying yourself after having your backside washed but it's still a possibility that when multiplied over an entire population means there are many people walking around with contaminated hands, especially if hand washing isn't the cultural standard.
I have found that using toilet paper to remove the initial debris, then using the bidet, then drying with a new piece of toilet paper is the only way to consistently feel more clean.
I honestly much prefer the traditional Asian toilets compared to the western ones with seats when I'm using public facilities. Usually the door doesn't go all the way to the bottom so you can open and close it with your shoe, you can use a pre-prepared piece of tissue to lock the toilet door, go about your business clean up and use another small piece of toilet paper to unlock the door and your shoe to open it, and do all that without physically touching anything apart from your own body or your own clothes. Usually the flush is on a handle that just needs to be pressed and conveniently at foot height too. Unless it's an automatic tap, I'll usually operate the washbasin tap with tissue paper between me and the tap too.
Of course most Westerners have difficulty with the squat itself at first, but it doesn't take too long until you learn to balance properly. While I'd also suggest practicing the squat in the safety of your home first if you think this is going to be a skill you might need, in some ways it's easier to succeed in a public toilet when you're really strongly motivated against falling over! D:
Where I work we had some asian or middle-eastern folks who would try to use the standard American-style toilet as a squat toilet. I'm not sure of if they stood on the seat and squatted down or if they straddled the bowl and squatted but either way there was frequently shit on and around the seat. The janitorial staff became quite frustrated with it and someone posted a sign explaining that you had to sit on the toilet and not squat over it.
It must be a big issue in Japan, because every public toilet around here has a big sign telling you not to do that, and explaining how to use the toilet properly.
Yeah, I use a tissue barrier for that too. When I'm in Asia I usually carry around those little packs that have 10 folded tissues per pack. I normally tear one into quarters before I leave the street and go into the toilet, and use one quarter to deal with the lock shutting the door, one to open the toilet door (and after opening the door, operate the flush if hand operated), one to turn the tap off and one to open any doors on the way out. I also avoid the hand dryers, if present, as I think they just spread germs around. Hands usually dry pretty quickly anyway.

If the art used in a game violates copyright or contains imagery of exploited children, ban it of course, but what does that have to do with whether it was generated via AI or created in another manner?
If anything AI generated art should be _less_ susceptible to copyrighted stuff because everything is original (even if it's not in original style)
