Right. But if they openly sold defective half-finished cards for mining they'd still be less popular products but people wouldn't feel insulted.

It should be a bit simpler because it is intended not to change in value. If you sell it for what you get it for you may not need to file a pub544. Not sure.

Yes, I don't have free checking anymore so the last book of 50 I got years ago, for weird one-off situations, cost me $5.

I don't think any of it has really been tested, but because two of the Howey test's four provisions are "with an expectation of profit" and "on the work of others" and don't seem to fit something intended

Good question. Nice to see that they prioritize stablecoins, it's what makes the most sense for general users. Anything that insists you use their utility token is showing you a red flag.

If they'd announced this an appropriate period ahead (5 days maybe) then people running home farms would have cashed them in and hunters would have gone out for one last catch. Though the hard details of this story are hard to find.

Don't give that sort of estimate. How could you know? Instead ask for time for discovery and then have a discussion with another dev about the proposal. When you do go to your manager say something like "With a day's work I&#

You seriously think so? Or is that for the uncanny valley where it's obviously just a replica, but not just a poster? A lot of art, for many, is that others see the same thing through different eyes. Looking at the Mona Lisa or a Rem

That would be an actual crime. If you guessed my key, perhaps by knowing I generated it insecurely or watched me type it (when not under an NDA or some duty to me), you could do this legally though. But yes, once you've stolen the th

Maybe you should make multiple lists. There are some overt racist things, like redlining was, and gerrymandering can be, but a lot of those things appear to be natural accidents, or just looking at people without race before finding some ph

No, that implies the algorithm is wrong and the chance of crime is equal. If there was an actual bias, and you searched 90% of homes based on that, you'd expect closer to 100% of the arrests to be in those homes.

I think Spotify is the first service to tempt me from piracy. Piracy doesn't handle discovery, or access across multiple devices, is a pain, and is actually (who knew?) illegal. Spotify handles all of those and won't get you arr

If the cards were cheaper, or even the same price but available, then I doubt there'd be an outcry. But they charge more, for a surely defective part. It'd be like buying a car and finding a clause that says if you manage to make
