Geolocation data from the phones could have been used to show you both were in about the same place at about the same time.

Because mining rigs aren’t heating houses, they’re heating datacenters. Even if you did want to heat a house with a mining rig, they’re generally going to be mounted on a rack and providing a lot of heat to one room. And making a ton of noi

This is a perfectly reasonable use case, but also completely infeasible right now due to transaction costs - it could cost hundreds of dollars just to mint and transfer the NFT. Ticketmaster charges outrageous fees, but they’re nothing comp

This is basically every large company, and most all of them have enough brand recognition to not need fake reviews.

Would you feel better with “demand in other sectors has been deemed more valuable and your business model may be unfeasible in the current labor climate?” Means the same thing.

Which FAANG has had their stock go up 150%? They’re all doing well, but even Amazon hasn’t doubled their stock since prepandemic. There are definitely more people making 1m/yr at FAANGs than their were last year, but I agree with other

A counterargument would be that cars cause basically no road damage and it’s all caused by trucks. Studies have put the damage of a single truck at weight limit in the US to be equal to that of 9600 cars[1]. [1] https://www.gao.g

You're breaking the anchor chain or housing in that case. The problem with just trying to pull the thing out is it's extremely likely to cause a leak and then becomes even harder to move.

Yes, except for the fact that 1st amendment protections would still exist. How much protection that actually provides is unknown and it would need to be litigated to find out.

Practically? float/double. You probably don’t need any more precision and maintaining easy interoperability is more important. Otherwise you just want the mantissa stored as an int or byte[] until you need it to be converted to a float

Just because you work a 9-5 job doesn't mean that all of your risk is tied up in the fate of a single employer, subject to their whims. For most people, if something happens to their current employer, they can go get another one! In th

A lot of businesses are impacted by the price of oil even if they don’t directly take delivery. It serves as a really valuable hedge for airlines for example, where it’s a key cost driver, even if it has to go through a refinery first.

Because most (all?) of the large companies issue RSUs now, not options, with the quantity of RSUs determined at issue time.

I’m not sure it would be practicing good social distancing to do a ton of construction work to double capacity, but yes, now would be a good time to fill existing reserves. Even oil tankers are getting reserved to store oil for later.

A valid defense would just be that there was at least one legitimate advertisement that they saw. Just because one sign is illegal doesn’t mean they all are.

The 90 day post-employment exercise window is a requirement for them to be treated as incentive stock options, which have significant tax advantages over non-incentive stock options. It's not a clever thing that startups do to try to i

Yeah, it's ambiguous, but be realistic: how often are you calling a function with a function return just to invoke that directly? You usually won't see much of either sinice the type argument is only necessary when it can't

Small quantities under a tablespoon or 10ml by volume can be quite challenging to weigh, and is much easier to fill up a fixed size tsp/tbsp measure. If your ingredient is a commodity and has a known density ahead of time (water, olive

I'd really prefer that people be paid an adequate wage where I don't feel like I have to tip. And why is Sunday delivery worse than Sunday work in a myriad of other industries, like retail or restaurants?

ST = shit together CPA = closest point of approach. CPA is calculated for anything close ahead of time, but only if both you and another ship are moving in a straight line. Which the McCain wasn't.

That's a claim of the durability of the data, or the odds that a chunk of data will be lost in a year. They calculate this through the odds that a single node fails, and then multiplying that odd out through all replicas. This covers t

You can set your own cert on the CDN though, and have the CDN request origin objects over https from the github domain. Since the CDN is the endpoint for your domain, you'll still be presenting a custom domain to your users.

Proxies that do https inspection act as a client to the destination server, decrypt traffic, then reencrypt locally using a self-signed (or otherwise non publically trusted) certificate. In short, you can intercept the traffic, but it relie

That's .02% of all certs issued. A road might enable a bank robber to get away faster, but nobody is complaining that we shouldn't build roads because of it.

While cryptocurrencies have been great (so far) for speculation, give how quickly their worth changes they make a pretty poor store of wealth. I'd prefer my cash to be worth in 1 year roughly the same as it's worth today.

Your issue is why you see people say "tabs for indentation, spaces for alignment." If you're trying to vertically align text, use tabs to keep it at the same indentation as the thing you're aligning to, and use spaces to
