I used to believe that software for creators was somewhat oversaturated — and upon doing more research, I found out that I was wrong. The Evolution of the Creator Economy First, let’s get the definition out of the way — the “Creator Economy” is not about dancing TikTokers or Instagram influencers partying on yachts. In fact, the largest share of content creators are small businesses. Thus, the “Creator Economy” refers to independent businesses and side-hustles launched by individuals who are looking to earn an income off of their knowledge and skills through digital mediums. To give you an idea of how fast the sector has grown since 2011, take a look at how much creators have earned on Gumroad as of 2020 👇 This growth is being driven by: how we create and consume content

Systems Interoperability Types: A Tertiary Study: Discussing the Results and What Comes Next

“Currently, more than 10 million Russians have cryptocurrency wallets that hold more than 10 trillion rubles worth of cryptocurrency.” Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin. Meanwhile, Bloomberg wrote in February that the Kremlin and the government estimate the Russian cryptocurrency market at $214 billion (16.5 trillion rubles at the exchange rate at the time). In November last year, the Central Bank estimated the annual volume of transactions by Russians with digital assets at $5 billion (about 390 billion rubles). At the end of 2020, the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs that crypto-fraud and other “acquisitive crimes where virtual currency acts as the object of crime” are increasing by 400% annually in Russia. The agency cited the unclear legal status of cryptocurrencies, difficulties in tracing them, and the inability to classify cryptocurrencies as civil rights objects as the reasons. reported There are some of the most common ways to lose cryptocurrency: As the cryptocurrency market grows, so do . Groups that the US government has linked to North Korean authorities, such as Lazarus, APT3, BlueNoroff, and others, are causing increasing damage to blockchain projects and their users. Hacker attacks are not the only way to lose cryptocurrency. In mid-February, Group-IB recorded a new wave of digital asset fraud and NFT fraud. Criminals are using images of Tesla CEO Elon Musk, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghaus, and Ethereum creator Vitalik Buterin to steal cryptocurrencies. hacker threats The scammers host and promise to double users’ investments. In reality, the attackers gain access to the victims’ cryptocurrency wallets and steal their assets. In just three days, Group-IB specialists managed to identify 36 fraudulent online streams. fake YouTube streams is another common way to steal cryptocurrency. Attackers create a fake copy of a crypto service. For example, it could be a copy of an exchange page or a cryptocurrency wallet. As soon as the victim enters their username and password, they are immediately sent to the hackers, who gain access to the account and steal the funds. Phishing Precedents One of the most striking cases in recent times is that of employees of the cryptocurrency exchange Thodex, who have been charged in Turkey with fraudulent use of information systems and setting up a criminal organization. The detainees could receive prison sentences of up to 40,564 years each. According to the indictment, the losses of exchange users amounted to 356 million liras ($24 million). Speaking of high-profile cases in Russia, at the end of March, the Interior Ministry opened the first criminal case for embezzlement of crypto exchange assets. The funds were embezzled by one of the actual owners of the trading platform. The detainee had cash worth more than 190 million rubles in two suitcases on his person. The detainee was charged and taken into custody, his account was seized and a petition for the seizure of property worth more than RUB2 billion was filed. Also in April, a district court in St. Petersburg allowed the seizure of stolen Ethereum worth about 1 billion roubles. The criminal case was initiated under the articles of unauthorized access to computer information and large-scale theft. My cryptocurrency was stolen. How do I get it back? The first thing to do is to from other wallets. You need to make sure they are safe or take steps to protect your funds. For example, if you suspect that an address may have been compromised, you should carefully transfer funds to a safe wallet. The main thing is not to get nervous or rush, otherwise, you could make a mistake and lose even more money. prevent possible losses The first thing to do is to from other wallets. You need to make sure they are safe or take steps to protect your funds. For example, if you suspect that an address may have been compromised, you should carefully transfer funds to a safe wallet. The main thing is not to get nervous or rush, otherwise you could make a mistake and lose even more money. prevent possible losses Once you are sure that your remaining cryptocurrency is safe, . If you have communicated with the scammer, write down their contact details, take a screenshot of all correspondence, and the website. The police will need this information during the investigation and it will be used as evidence in court. record as much information as possible Blockchain is a transparent system that stores the history of all transactions. Your transfer to an attacker and further movements of the cryptocurrency can easily be tracked using blockchain browsers. The most popular ones are: ● Etherscan ( ) https://etherscan.io/ ● Blockchair ( ). https://blockchair.com/ Thanks to the browsers, it will be possible to trace the fate of the cryptocurrency. In the worst-case scenario, it will go to a special service that confuses transactions, the mixer. In the best-case scenario, the attacker will send the stolen funds to a centralized site. In such a case, it would be necessary to . However, crypto exchanges will likely take no action without a request from law enforcement. write to the help desk as soon as possible and ask for the funds to be frozen Unauthorized withdrawal of cryptocurrency from a wallet is considered theft in most countries, said Moscow Digital School lecturer Yuri Brisov. He added that a report should be filed at the place where the offense was committed. This can be both a plus and a minus. It is a plus because there is no specific territorial link to the wallet. Therefore, de facto, law enforcement agencies may not be restricted in terms of territoriality. The disadvantage is that for example in Russia, the Ministry of Internal Affairs uses the fact of uncertain territoriality as a reason to refuse. If your cryptocurrency was stolen in Russia, you may fill the form directly on the MIA website with as many details of the theft and addresses of all wallets involved as possible, the representative of cryptocurrency exchange EXMO.me added. He advised sending e-mails (letters) to the exchange where the stolen funds are located and attaching copies of the letters to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Without a request from MIA, the exchange will most likely not be able to do anything, but this way you can draw the attention of Compliance to the wallet where the stolen funds are stored and possibly speed up the process In addition, if the money came to a large crypto exchange from some already “dirty” wallet (for example, there were several iterations), . This will require the fraudster to show where they bought the bitcoins (there will be receipts/statements/screens from the account at the exchanger or post office), as well as showing what they bought them for. the account is likely to be blocked and the source of funds will be asked, said a representative of the site “ ” claims a cryptocurrency exchange employee. By the time this procedure is done, the police will have had time If you manage to trace cryptocurrency transactions to a foreign jurisdiction, try to contact the service first, Brisov advised. Many custodial services can freeze a suspicious account without a court order. . If it is the US, it is important that the lawyer or firm practices in the state in which the wallet or exchange is registered, if the search can be narrowed down to a state. The lawyer will then request evidence from you and contact the law enforcement authorities himself. A complaint directly from a foreigner is unlikely to be considered, says the lawyer. However, if the case is big and there have been many appeals, you will be connected to an ongoing case or investigation, the lawyer stressed. It also makes sense to seek the services of a criminal lawyer in that country when applying to law enforcement authorities, said Efim Kazantsev, member of the Commission on Legal Support of the Digital Economy of the Moscow branch of the Association of Lawyers of Russia. According to him, one may submit any documents that may help in finding offenders and bringing them to justice. The law does not have any standard, rigidly defined list of documents This has advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that it will be easier for the victim to monitor the application process. However, finding and prosecuting an offender who is in another region, or even in another country, is not easy for the local police department, the specialist says. In this case, if the location of the attacker is unknown, the victim’s place of residence remains to be reported. If we are talking about blocking fiat funds belonging to the cryptocurrency thief and held in his bank account, then such . Depending on the situation, it may be implemented as a property seizure in the framework of criminal proceedings (Article 115 of the Criminal Procedure Code) or as a security measure within the framework of civil or arbitration proceedings (Article 140 of the Civil Procedure Code and Article 91 of the Arbitration Procedure Code), Kazantsev said. blocking is quite possible In addition, it is worth with a claim for the return of unjust enrichment and an application for interim relief. It should be understood that criminal investigation and court proceedings do not guarantee the return of cryptocurrency. At the moment, the market is at an early stage of development, so in most countries, including Russia, it is still rather unregulated. going to court All of the above actions increase the likelihood of getting your assets back. However, it should be understood that law enforcement agencies do not yet have a wealth of expertise in conducting such investigations. Therefore, the bulk of the work of finding your own cryptocurrency falls on the shoulders of the victim. There are analytics companies as well as law firms that specialize in cryptocurrency. In order to increase your chances of success, it is worth turning to professionals who can help with the paperwork and more thorough collection of evidence.

Recovering Stolen Cryptocurrency: A Russian Example of What to do

Channels in Go are a core part of the language's concurrency model, which is built around the principles of Communicating Sequential Processes (CSP). A channel in Go is a powerful tool for communication between goroutines, and Go's lightweight threads, enabling a safe and synchronized exchange of data without the need for traditional lock-based synchronization techniques. Channels serve 2 primary purposes in Go: : They ensure that data exchanges between goroutines are synchronized, preventing race conditions and ensuring data integrity. Synchronization : Channels facilitate the passing of data between goroutines, acting as a conduit for data flow in concurrent Go applications. Communication According to the Go specification: Channels are typed by the values they convey. This means that a channel has a specific type, and all communications through that channel must adhere to this type, ensuring type safety across concurrent operations. Key characteristics of channels: : Each channel is associated with a specific type of data it can transport. This type is determined at the time of channel creation. Typed : By default, sending and receiving operations on a channel block until the other side is ready. This blocking behavior is essential for synchronization, allowing goroutines to coordinate their execution flow. Blocking Operations : Go supports both buffered and unbuffered channels. Unbuffered channels do not store any values and are used for direct communication between goroutines. In contrast, buffered channels have a capacity and can hold a finite number of values for asynchronous communication. Buffered and Unbuffered Declaring channels In Go, channels are created using the function, which initializes and returns a reference to a channel. make The syntax for declaring a channel is: chanVar := make(chan Type) Where is the variable name of the channel, and specifies the type of data that the channel is intended to transport. It's important to note that the data type must be specified, as channels are strongly typed. chanVar Type Example of declaring a channel: messageChannel := make(chan string) This line of code creates a channel for transmitting strings, referred to by the variable . messageChannel Internals of Go channels Understanding the internals of Go channels involves delving into the struct, which forms the backbone of channel operations in Go. Let's break down how channels work under the hood, focusing on the struct and the initialization process when a channel is created with . hchan hchan make A channel in Go is more than just a conduit for communication between goroutines. It's a well-defined structure in memory, represented by . The struct is crucial for managing the state and operations of a channel, including sending, receiving, and synchronization. hchan hchan Here's an overview of its main elements: : This field holds the total number of elements currently in the queue. It's essential for understanding the channel's current load. qcount : Specifies the size of the circular queue. For an unbuffered channel, this is 0; for a buffered channel, it's the capacity defined at the creation time. dataqsiz : A pointer to an array where the channel's data elements are stored. The size of this array is determined by . buf dataqsiz : The size, in bytes, of each element in the channel. This ensures that the memory allocated for the channel's buffer is properly managed according to the type of data the channel is meant to hold. elemsize : A flag indicating whether the channel has been closed. Once a channel is closed, no more data can be sent on it, although data can still be received until the buffer is empty. closed : Points to a data structure that describes the type of elements the channel can hold. This is critical for maintaining type safety in Go's statically typed system. elemtype and : These indices manage the positions where the next send and receive operations will occur, respectively, enabling the circular queue functionality. sendx recvx and : Wait queues for goroutines that are blocked on receiving from or sending to the channel, respectively. These queues are implemented as linked lists. recvq sendq : A mutex lock to synchronize access to the channel, preventing race conditions when multiple goroutines interact with the channel concurrently. lock When a channel is created using the function, Go allocates memory for and initializes an instance of the struct. This process involves setting up the struct fields to their default values or the specified capacity for buffered channels. make hchan For example: ch := make(chan int, 10) This line creates a buffered channel of integers with a capacity of 10. We will delve deeper into the nuances of channel types and capacities in the upcoming sections of this article. Internally, Go does the following: Allocates a struct on the heap. hchan Sets to 10, reflecting the channel's capacity. dataqsiz Allocates an array of 10 integers ( will describe an integer type, and will be the size of an int on the current architecture) and assigns its address to buf. elemtype elemsize Initializes , , and to 0, indicating an empty channel. qcount sendx recvx Sets to 0, indicating that the channel is open. closed The initialization process ensures that the channel is ready for use, with a clear and safe protocol for sending and receiving data. This is crucial here. It's used to synchronize access to the channel, ensuring that concurrent operations are safe and that the channel's state remains consistent. lock Understanding the struct and the initialization process provides insight into how Go channels efficiently manage data exchange and synchronization between goroutines. This intricate design allows developers to leverage channels for robust concurrent programming without delving into the complexities of traditional thread synchronization mechanisms. hchan Operations on channel Once a channel is declared, it can be used for sending and receiving data. These operations are at the heart of channel based communication in Go. To send data to a channel, you use the channel variable followed by the send operator, and the value to be sent. The syntax looks like this: <- chanVar <- value In this example, a string is sent to the messages channel from within a new goroutine. The main function continues its execution without waiting for the send operation to complete, illustrating the non-blocking nature of send operations in buffered channels or when the receive is ready in unbuffered channels. Receiving data from a channel is done by placing the channel variable on the right side of the receive operator, . This operation is blocked by default. It waits until there's data to be received. The syntax for receiving data from a channel is: <- value := <-chanVar In this code snippet, the main function blocks at the receive operation until the goroutine sends a string to the channel. Once the message is received, it's stored in the variable and then printed to the console. messages msg Channel direction In Go, channels can be directional. This means a channel can be specified to only send or only receive values. Directional channels enhance type safety by ensuring a channel is used only for its intended purpose, whether it's to send data, receive data, or both. This concept is particularly useful in function signatures, where you want to enforce the role of a channel within the context of goroutine communication. A send-only channel can only be used to send data to a channel. Attempts to receive data from a send-only channel will result in a compilation error, ensuring that the channel's directionality is respected. The syntax for declaring a send-only channel is as follows: chanVar := make(chan<- Type) In this example, the function takes a send-only channel as an argument ( ) and sends a string into this channel. The main goroutine receives the string from and prints it. The function cannot receive data from , as it's a send-only channel, showcasing the enforcement of channel directionality. sendData sendCh chan<- string messageChannel sendData sendCh Conversely, a receive-only channel is used exclusively for receiving data. Sending data to a receive-only channel will result in a compilation error. The syntax for a receive-only channel is: chanVar := make(<-chan Type) Here, the function is designed to accept a receive-only channel ( ) from which it reads a message. The anonymous goroutine in the function sends a string to , which is then received by . This setup ensures that function cannot send data back through , adhering to its receive-only designation. receiveData receiveCh <-chan string main messageChannel receiveData receiveData receiveCh Capacity of a channel The capacity of a channel refers to the number of values that the channel can hold at a time. This is pertinent to buffered channels, which are declared with a specified capacity. The function is used to determine the capacity of a channel. cap() In this example, a buffered channel with a capacity to hold 5 integers is created. Using the function, we print out the capacity of , which is 5. cap() ch Length of a channel While the capacity of a channel is static, the length of a channel is dynamic and represents the number of elements currently queued in the channel. The function is used to find out how many items are currently stored in the channel. len() This code snippet demonstrates a buffered channel where two integers are sent into the channel. The function shows that the length of is 2, indicating two items are currently in the channel. len() ch Close operation on a channel Closing a channel indicates that no more values will be sent on it. This can be useful to signal to the receiving goroutines that the channel has finished sending data. The function is used for this purpose. close() After closing the channel , we attempt to read from it. The second value returned by the channel read operation indicates whether the channel is open or closed. In this example, after reading all the elements, becomes , signaling the channel is closed. ch open false Nil channel A nil channel is a channel with no reference. Both sending and receiving operations on a nil channel block forever, making nil channels useful for disabling a channel operation dynamically. Operations on a nil channel never proceed, making them distinct in their behavior compared to non-nil channels. For range loop on a channel The loop can be used to receive values from a channel until it is closed. This idiomatic way of reading from a channel ensures that all sent values are received. for range In this code, we iterate over a channel using a loop, printing each value received from the channel until it's closed. ch for range Advanced channel techniques Let's consider a scenario where multiple goroutines send data to a channel, and a single receiver processes the data in a synchronized manner. In this example, we spawn goroutines that send unique to the messages channel. The is used to wait for all sender goroutines to finish before closing the channel. The receiver goroutine uses a loop to receive messages until the channel is closed. numSenders messages sync.WaitGroup for range Next example showcases using the select statement to process data from multiple channels and a timeout feature. In the above code, we set up a pool of workers that receive from the jobs channel and send results to the channel. The function sends jobs to the workers and uses a statement to handle results with a mechanism. The timeout channel created with ensures that if results are not received within a certain period, the main program will not wait indefinitely. jobs results main select timeout time.After Both of these examples in this section present more complex use cases of channels in Go, demonstrating how channels can be used for synchronization, timeout handling, and concurrent processing patterns. Summary In wrapping up our exploration of Go channels, we've seen how these powerful tools facilitate communication and synchronization in concurrent programming. The behavior of channels varies depending on their state (open or closed) and type (buffered or unbuffered). To distill our understanding, let's review a summary table showcasing the outcomes of various operations across different channel states: Key Takeaways: : An attempt to send on a closed channel results in a panic, highlighting the need for careful channel management. Conversely, sending on a nil channel illustrates an indefinite block, a scenario typically indicative of a programming error or oversight. Send Operation : The nuanced behavior of receiving from a closed channel returning the default value if empty underscores Go's emphasis on safety and predictability in concurrent execution. Receive Operation : Successfully closing open channels ensures a clean state transition, while attempting to close a nil or already closed channel flags a clear misuse through a panic. Close Operation : These introspective operations provide visibility into the channel's current load and capacity, crucial for performance tuning and debugging. Length and Capacity Go channels offer a nuanced, powerful model for concurrency, balancing simplicity with depth. Understanding their behavior across different states and operations empowers developers to craft efficient, robust, and deadlock-free concurrent applications. As we've seen, mastery of channels is not just about knowing how to use them, but understanding their behavior under various conditions, ensuring our Go applications perform harmoniously even in the face of complex synchronization challenges.

Mastering Go Channels for Elegant Synchronization

Edit: Previously I wrote about the "6 Most Popular Vue.js UI Libraries (Vue 3) in 2023". As we are now in 2024, I have revisited the different libraries and updated them for the current year 🎉 Vue.js, a JavaScript framework, has been gaining a lot of attention in recent years due to its simplicity, flexibility, and performance. Also, User Interface (UI) component libraries have become an essential aspect of web development, providing a fast and convenient way to build beautiful and responsive user interfaces. Vue 3 has become the default choice to build modern applications since Vue 2 reached its end of life on December 31, 2023. The need for UI component libraries designed specifically for Vue 3 has risen. In this article, we will take a look at the six most popular Vue.js UI component libraries for 2024, categorized based on their popularity within English and Chinese-speaking communities. I decided to categorize this way because of the massive popularity of Vue.js in China according to an interview with Evan You, the creator of Vue.js, who was born in China and grew up in a city near Shanghai. Moreover, Vue has well-written documents in Chinese. As teams from big companies in China such as Alibaba, Tencent, and Baidu started using Vue.js, all these factors may have contributed to its popularity in the country. Vue-PDF-Viewer: Flexible and Powerful Vue.js PDF Component Just a quick background about what I’m working on. Vue-PDF-Viewer renders the PDF viewer on your Vue or Nuxt websites so that your users can interact with your PDF document without leaving your sites. The component has over 20 features including theme customization, built-in localization, web responsiveness, and more. I would be grateful if you could check Vue-PDF-Viewer out. It will encourage me to make even more content. ❤️‍🔥 English Focused Community 1. Vuetify Vuetify is a popular Vue.js UI component library based on Material Design specifications.
