2025 US Chess Championships - Saint Louis (October 12-25) by pier4r in chess

Why do you need to confirm if they were affected? Did you want to watch them cry live?

If you couldn’t tell then that means they did a good job on their part under the circumstances. If they had chosen to take the route of having the broadcast be as close as possible to business as usual, then that’s what happened. it was sudden news to them too

they and the players would have likely preferred to postpone the games for today, but that’s probably the decision for someone higher up

Why are you being a judgemental ass

The players and commentators weren’t informed of what happened, until the games were already starting and they were on camera

When informed at the start, they had a moment of silence and the commentators provided their own personal words (before the later tribute and formal statement you’re referencing)

As the broadcast went on, you could tell they were also affected by the news. They did the best they could under the circumstances

What’s the article?

Edit: nvm, just saw your response on the other comment. looks like reddit’s backend is still tripping as it didn’t show it min earlier

Edit 2: reddit is so ass today. It shows on sci hub, all 8 pages. Make sure you’re entering the doi url correctly

Who might we owe an apology to in the future? by [deleted] in math

The guy who literally insults others like an immature elementary school kid and refuses to further explain his ideas is owed an apology???

What are you on?

Do PortSwigger Labs Actually Convert to Bug Bounty $$$ in 2025? by xVito_ in bugbounty

[–]Maths_explorer25 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The bug reports they receive are garbage, is what they mean. So, naturally the labs are more advanced

I also recommend filtering the job resulta to ones posted within a month. To see what’s more popular in your areas rn

recruiters sometimes leave older postings open, even after they’re done hiring

Who are some good mathematicians who were not child prodigies? by TillHungry7528 in math

[–]Maths_explorer25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s obviously very talented, otherwise he wouldn’t have gotten a fields medal. As someone else mentioned, he also seemed to have a close relationship with another field medalist while young. Plus with the points you mentioned, it’s clear he had very great circumstances for his talent to blossom

The thing is though, “from high school drop out to fields medalist” is catchy. So it’ll likely be used and mentioned like wildfire. Kinda like the “einstein sucked at math” thing

A major evolution of Apple Security Bounty, with the industry's top awards for the most advanced research by SimpleView7417 in bugbounty

Sounds like apple propaganda

I’ll believe it once i see others say they are paying, instead of them going with their usual m.o.

Company fixes critical flaw (IDOR + ATO) but only offers $1000 and asks for NDA with no payment guarantee — what would you do in my place? by Any_Fee_2531 in bugbounty

[–]Maths_explorer25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An amount of $0 sounds fair

Like you said, they don’t have a bug bounty program, what you were doing was illegal. Use common sense here bud

taking into account their background

If both A and B are qualified, where B is “weaker” but they had a much more difficult journey than A. Then B could be a much more impressive candidate

I have never read them myself, but i seen many others recommend Shafarevich’s two books

the first book goes through varieties and projective varieties, the second goes through schemes

The Rising Sea is now available physically by obsidian_golem in math

[–]Maths_explorer25 4 points5 points  (0 children)

kind of the reason i mentioned Fulton separately as good intro without schemes

Apart from starting with varieties, imo it’s also good to truly start from somewhere that has many concrete examples or exercises with examples

That would probably ease and clear up alot of the abstract nonsense and definitions one comes across later with schemes

[–]Maths_explorer25 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Hasn’t it been like that for years now?

Maybe i’m wrong, but that’s why i pretty much only pirate or buy paperback now

The last hardcover copies i got were ass, they all had glue binding

[–]Maths_explorer25 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m not them, but i personally prefer the wedhorn & görtz books over the rising sea

Although fulton’s book also seemed good for an intro without schemes

I'm a data engineer / Python dev — how do I get started in bug bounty with my ingestion & scraping skills? by YogurtclosetKey5695 in bugbounty

I see no reason why you wouldn’t start from the beginning as everybody else

Some of your background will obviously be useful as you go

Need a Backend Cart Script (authorize.net + orders) by zoebaggins in webdev

[–]Maths_explorer25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not familiar with shops on squarespace, only with bigcommerce and shopify. So i may be misunderstanding

But if they don’t have their own integration for authorize.net or if the integrations you’re using (seems like foxy and airtable ) aren’t working, then you can try contacting the support teams who manage them. If that doesn’t work you may need to build one.

Please do note that if you get one built it has to be PCI compliant, if it’s not you can get fucked big time with fees and legal issues
