I like the idea, but I'm not sure I would get anywhere near this as a US citizen. I can easily envision a federal prosecutor trying to make a name for himself coming up with an argument that it violates the Wire Act, and since it is p

The reason I like TDD is that the feedback I get from it is very close to what I'm working on at the time, which I believe shortens overall development time. As part of TDD, mocking is valuable because it allows one to handwave around

I don't think anybody disputes that it is expensive to capture and transport natural gas, but it's a solved problem. The state has taken a completely hands-off approach, letting oil companies operate in a manner that maximizes th

Market risk would be the risk of the value of the asset changing (which is also present here). Counterparty risk is the risk of Coinbase not living up to its contractual obligation of delivering the bitcoins in the first place.

FWIW, most "investments" that regular people make in the stock market are also, in fact, speculation. Once the stock has been issued originally, the issuing company receives no proceeds from subsequent sales of that stock. There

His yields are also almost certainly less than his neighbors, as well. I love what Salatin is doing, but there are tradeoffs, one being that it probably doesn't scale that well.

Agreed. This sort of advice is great if you're the founder/owner, because you're the one standing to get rich when somebody comes in with a buyout offer. If you're an employee at such a shop, though, this is a sucker&#x2

There's a huge gap between unpopular speech and harassment, which is illegal, and in many cases criminal. I agree he should not be in jail for the crime he was convicted of , but he almost certainly deserves to be there otherwise.

Counting cards in a poker game is really trivial, even for novice players, since you shuffle the deck after each hand, and in Texas Hold-em, once a card is exposed it is not taken out of play until the hand is over (unlike, say, stud games)
