Sorry but no. No single broker on the planet is instantly liquid. At the very best daily liquid. Most currency settlements are between 1 and 3 days for DM. Your "feeling" of instantaneous transfers is just front office display, th

In the late 90-early 2000s, all the rage was PHP2/3, flash and IRC. We had a small hosting company with a friend, backed by a workstation in his room. We would host small websites with PHP and PHPMySQL, as well as eggdrop and bouncers.

This is the case in France as well, but it's more subtle than that. Engineer ("ingénieur") is both a diploma, a status, and a title. The diploma is regulated by a committee that endorses curriculum for colleges so that they c

There are very strict rules for any regulated firm about the provenance of the funds, ultimate beneficiaries, client-assumed risk, KYC, etc. These are not only for customer protection, but anti money laundering as well. Small regulators oft

She doesn't even need to be aware to be accountable and prosecuted. Most regulated activities have a requirement of _means_ rather than _outcome_. i.e. She is as much in breach for not setting up the means by which she should have know

I think you grossly underestimate the amount of regulation Caroline is subject to. At the very least she will be deemed unfit or proper, which means she will be barred from any financial activity for the years to come. On top of that, as a

This seems nice, though my understanding is that the animation part is mainly to be handled by the user, in a loop, from a counter. What I like from things like manim, is that the whole interpolation / transformation / animation i

I don't quite understand the exact case that is being ruled here. "Copyright" is a concept from countries of "common law" (essentially the US). Most of Europe are _not_ common law countries, and have their own &quot

What annoyed me with helix was that invisible characters are treated the same as characters. That means your cursor can be positioned after the end of the line, on the '\n' and just sit there. For instance, if you press "A&qu

I think your example is closer to a survivor bias, while the article describes more of a collider bias. Survivor bias arises when you study what you think is a full population, while in fact you're looking at a selected sample that did

I agree with your separation between "duration" and "absolute point in time". But it doesn't solve the issue, because durations are often computed as the difference between two absolute points in time. You could get

On the top of my head, for large open source C codebases that are not system/kernel/controller I guess Python, Ruby and Redis would be good examples. I do myself fall in the category of people sticking to C over C++. I used to lov
