I was on a zoom call 10 am to 11 am and it worked fine. Hung up from that one and couldn’t get on my 11 am one. Seems like in process calls are fine. On the bright side my productivity is up 84% since I can’t join meetings.

I must say that I dislike the rationale for banning structuring. So there are two possibilities. 1. You think the government shouldn't be allowed to track money laundering 2. You have a suggestion on improving money laundering tracki

There really seems to be a lot of mental gymnastics going on here. Your original point was that casinos are allowed to operate because of their "lack of intent". I respond that it's actually because they're as heavily re

[Casinos] don't have the intent to aid in these activities though, which is why they are allowed to operate. Casinos are allowed to operate because not only do they not have the intent to aid these activities, they happily track and

Money laundering requires a "predicate offense" Structuring is one of the most common methods of facilitating money laundering. No predicate offense required. It’s illegal all on its own. https://bsaaml.ffiec.gov/

I bet there are many here on HN who would love to "go all out" on the subject. And then there are people who just downvote and flag everything they disagree with.

You feel that becoming a particular type of engineer you aspire to is meaningful, but once you get there you’ll realize you’re still yourself and you didn’t ascend to some higher level of being. This viewpoint sounds to me like it’s comin

Thank you for the interesting link! It seems to hold the key to why Germany declared war against the U.S. - essentially it was a condition of Japan’s first strike against the U.S.: On 28 November 1941, Ribbentrop confirmed to Hiroshi Oshim

Extending your point, I think all of these subjective thought experiments on being tired are maybe useful for the person engaging in them. People are so different for a myriad of ways that I don’t see how many of these ideas are generaliz
