It's not possible to sustain a magic money box where everyone can put money in and get more out. Many people get that far in their thinking, realise cryptocurrency is a bad investment, and leave it there.

(UK) I got rid of signal when they dropped SMS support. Using an alternative sms app that sometimes upgrades messages to signal was nearly zero friction. Keeping an alternative messaging app for one contact is borderline-charity. I'd d

You can cancel it right away, it's just intentionally obfuscated. The many layers of cancellation buttons with different layouts strongly suggest that they a/b test for maximum difficulty.

It saves MS from attempting to reverse the decision in British courts, so probably net saving of human time and effort all things considered.

They could pay more to cover the externalities, and enjoy relatively empty roads. Town centers will soon be inaccessible by car, so they'll still need public transport occasionally for that.

Reddit power users are overrepresented as users of third party clients and old. They have an outsized influence as content sharers/creators rather than consumer, so annoying them is worse for reddit than it might appear.

Hypothetically it could compress down to a few bytes. Just color and duration. Given the number of videos that are a single static image plus audio surely YouTube has built in a special case for them.

Spending the extra money from increased fuel and vehicle sales taxes on public transport would be great for city dwellers in general. Reduced minimum cost of living for the poor, less traffic for those who drive for a living or have no choi

Power Query does the same with its M language. Recorded steps in the GUI generate code that can be manually edited.

My experience is that SSMS is slow to open. ADS is fast to open but otherwise slower and unreliable. I still mostly use ADS for the git integration, file comparison, terminal, and file picker though. SSMS only for those admin tasks where it

That's intentional. Uncommon settings being exposed to websites makes fingerprinting much more reliable.

I'm not sure where you got those figures, but the NHS pay scales are public. https://www.nhsemployers.org/articles/pay-scales-202223 Non-manager caps at ~£48k for most technical roles.

Increased education requirements to not live in poverty is the #1 reason in my opinion. When parents expected young children to perform unpaid manual labor the net cost of upbringing was negligible or even profitable. Now many people only s

If letting was illegal the cost of housing would move to reflect that. Possibly to the point where a mortgage would be cheaper and easier than a rental is currently. Governments could set themselves up as a monopoly landlord for those peopl

I wouldn't take those bitcoin forecasts too seriously. Some of them honestly believe that halving inflation doubles price no matter how many times you do it.

One data table per sheet and separating data from presentation is normal for experienced Excel users. It's almost-required for Power Query.

How could someone apply aml/kyc without removing all the actual purpose of a crypto atm? The haircut is so large on those machines that the only use cases at the moment are financial crimes.

The imbalance is that it's more like 2% of tax complexity but 80% (made up numbers) of time spent. Assuming no submission is equivalent to a submission with earned income only (standard in Europe) would save an incredible amount of tim
