I think bail norms probably vary by jurisdiction, etc., and your assumptions are not correct. My guess is he was not required to post full collateral, i.e. the only collateral here is the home, and then Sam, his parents, and two others post

But that 10% is a non-recoverable fee, right? It seems insane they would have agreed to pay a third party $25M as a non-recoverable fee.

Similarly interesting: “The striking difference was that while many of the African and Indian subjects registered predominantly positive experiences with their voices, not one American did. Rather, the U.S. subjects were more likely to repo

I am skeptical that most suicidal people, who may idealize or even follow through on shooting or hanging themselves, would willingly let themselves be eaten by a lion. Fight or flight adrenaline in the face of big cats feels like a likely e

I think it’s really just another trait the exists on a bell curve, e.g. one can be tall (right of bell curve’s normal distribution), but have a poor memory (left on bell curve).

This would lose all communicative benefits. Teaching a young inexperienced driver “just always keep one car length” where one = safe, is meaningless. I don’t know you, but I believe a majority of people underestimate safe stopping distance.

Have you ever looked up stopping distances? https://www.automotive-fleet.com/driver-care/239402/driver-c... I don’t know how accurate the above is, but it suggest that the stopping distance at 40mph is 5-9 car len

Crypto.com has 20% of their reserves in SHIB since that’s what their users own 1:1. That’s the correct approach; you would prefer they gamble with their customer’s assets by swapping a portion to more blue chip crypto like ETH?

Doesn’t this just mean that 20% of customer assets are in SHIB? I meant that’s depressing to learn, but that’s the customers’ problem and not the exchange’s if so.

I am not a doctor or chemist so I do not want to speak definitively, but I highly doubt most common drugs (Xanax, Advil, etc) really lose much efficacy past their expiration date (at least within some reasonable time, like 10-15 years). Hap

Why not both? I agree with you that all of those people know how to play the media to their benefit, but Kanye is also clearly bipolar and currently in one of his episodes, and Trump also clearly is the clinical definition of narcissistic p

The difference between the two is not chemical but speed of effect [0]. This can lead to crack users being much more likely to become junkies than coke users, and thus more likely to result in bad behaviors like stealing to support a habit

Do you select the range and do Insert—>Table? Using an actual table is much better in Excel and the lack of this confuses me in Sheets but that’s probably just because I’m better trained in Excel.

I’m not sure, but a while ago they announced a sort of expanded CarPlay where things like the speedometer, fuel gage, etc were shown in the CarPlay format, so I assume that.

You can get a 32" Fire TV for $99 on Amazon right now...I'm not sure it makes sense to make cheaper, especially when you have used items on Craigslist that covers the gap.

In case you don’t know, you can at least PM the MidJourney bot so you have an uncluttered workspace. It’s clearly personally preference, but I loathe Discord but love it for MidJourney. As you said, there’s an interactive element where I se

I think both have strengths and weaknesses, but I don’t disagree DALL-E in most instances is technically better at matching prompts. But I often enjoyed, artistically, the results of MidJourney more; it just felt fun to use and explore.

I think they are reacting to competition. MidJourney is amazing, was easier to get into, gives you commercial rights, and frankly I found more fun to use and even better output in most instances.

In case the other answers are not obvious enough, a term loan is borrowed once; you borrow $X, and the pay it back before the end of the term. A revolver for $X can be tapped and repaid many times, so long as the total borrowed amounts outs
