Contract controversy reveals D.C. Lottery's tangled rootsNews Story
Jerry Cooper, the man who helped bring legalized gambling and the lottery to the District nearly 30 years ago, called local businessman Warren C. Williams Sr. with a suggestion last year. The District's contract with Lottery Technology Enterprises, the firm that has run the city's online gaming for about 25 years, was going to expire by 2009. Would Williams be interested in bidding against LTE for the lucrative contract? No, but maybe his son and daughter-in-law would. So Alaka Willi

Cloudflare causing disruptions this morningReply
We're still seeing intermittent problems. For people who care about the technical side of things, the Cloudflare Chief Technology Officer (CTO) issued the following statement: Dane Knecht @dok2001 I won't mince words: earlier today we failed our customers and the broader Internet when a problem in @Cloudflare network impacted large amounts of traffic that rely on us. The sites, businesses, and organizations that rely on Cloudflare depend on us being available and I apologize for t

Advanced alien medicine would likely use artificial intelligence (AI) in ways we can only imagine, but that would be far beyond our current technology. Here are some possibilities: 1. Instant Diagnosis and Treatment Quantum AI: If aliens master quantum computing, their AI could analyze trillions of biological data points in real time, diagnosing diseases before symptoms even appear. Smart Nanobots: Tiny AI-controlled robots could roam the body, repairing cells, eliminating viruses and

Important maintenance happening at around 10:00 am EST today [finished]Reply
Definitely seeing performance increases, so I'm happy about that. (Determining performance improvements are impossible until tested under full load in production, which is why I'm finally able to see the results of the work accomplished.) There were two major types of performance work that went into this upgrade: Using coding techniques that are only available now that we are using the current version of our technology platform Better asynchronous coding techniques that are now imple

Important maintenance happening at around 10:00 am EST today [finished]
This is a heads-up that we will be installing a very important update to the Lottery Post website at around 10:00 am Eastern Time today (Monday, Jan. 22, 2024). I'm giving an advance warning just because it is possible for extended downtime. If everything goes smoothly it will be only a minute offline, but if there's a problem and we need to roll back to the current version of the website it will take a bit longer. I'll post more about this following the maintenance work, but in the mean

Ohio: 3/1 - 3/31/2023Reply
Congrats 828 Winners and Predictors! I'm with Donnie on constraint, Wendy. I've got a Pick 3 budget and its the bare minimal. I can only afford to lose $10 a week on Pick 3 if I want to enjoy other hobbies. Anymore than that $10 and I am instantly a loser. I wait and watch before I wager; and sometimes I let my $10 accumulate and I play $20. I've won 5 $83 BOX HITS in 2023. That's $83 x 5 = $415. But spent $10 x 52 = $520. So, I'm still a loser, but I totally enjoyed myself playing. Bei

Manifestation?Reply
Exactly! You have my mindset! I know every living being vibrates at a specific frequency which changes in response to emotion, beliefs, the company of others, etc... Having epilepsy helped cement that belief. They can measure electrical activity in the brain, but only AT THE SCALP, via EEG. I have many times argued with doctors that they can't measure EVERYTHING. For instance, technology available today can only detect 30% of simple partial seizures. I'm kind of ticked off that they diagnose peo

Who is Sam Bankman-Fried and Why Are The Fed's After Him?Reply
Thanks.... There is another aspect or 'twist' to the SBF story that I didn't put in my post above. When The Fed's investigate either a suspected financial crime or a crime that was actually committed, FBI forensic accountants are deployed to follow the money trail by examining any/all financial records. That technique is as old as the hills, but this time it won't be so easy for The Feds. It's going to way more complicated. The crypto currency world is very new and the whole thing is

Lottery Post launches new websiteReply
Jackpotismine, thank you. You're right that we have to keep up with what's happening with technology, which is one of the really important reasons for this rebuild. Regarding a lot of negative feedback, I have some thoughts. First, the negative stuff stands out, but I have to acknowledge that there is a ton of really positive feedback, and that is really great to see. So even though the negative reactions kind of hit you in the face, there has been so much more positive reaction, and I'm
