I don't see why having a different settlement layer would prevent the bank from freezing money that they have custody of.

A less charitable way to look at it is that they weren't taking things seriously before the incident, and they're still not taking things seriously now. What the most appropriate way to view it is, I don't know. I think I&#x2

One of the things that's stopped me from doing something like this so far is that the benefits are intangible, difficult or impossible to measure, but the costs are obvious and often measured in dollars.

Last time I tried to get quotes for cleaning my pet's teeth nobody would give them over the phone. Not even ball park ranges.

Some of my stuff can take quite a while to dry still though. Particularly if the drying rack is very full and it's cold in the apartment. For everything to fully dry sometimes takes 24 hours.

Are you sure you're washing the clothing sufficiently, and that the detergent is working? I dry all my clothes on an indoor drying rack that gets zero direct sunlight, including 100% cotton items. I don't have any problems with wa

I think you misread or misinterpreted what I wrote. They don't have any specific attraction to committing crimes, but rather an aversion to spending time and effort to do things legally. Getting licensed and insured is expensive. It&#x

Part of the switch to gas mopeds was due to the fact that most of them were being ridden around completely illegally; without license, insurance, or plates. The barrier to entry there was artificially low because the NYPD didn't priori

It seems only through incompetence though, I think that's important to note.

I mostly agree, however DRM does stop laypeople from directly pirating, they have to rely on technical people to do the ripping or cracking, and also find out where to procure those copies. The optimal DRM is something that prevents theft b

Very unfortunate, but true. Opera was the first browser I remember using besides Internet Explorer, and the amount of features it had compared to IE was a total game changer. I want to say Firefox was just called "Mozilla" back th

Spotify if you already use it. I liked Beyond Pod, but haven't used it in a long time. The ability to schedule automatic downloads was great when I was more aggressive in reducing cell data usage.

I think a reasonable fear is that long stretches of exceptional safety could breed complacency and cause aviation companies to feel like they can slack a bit on it. The same thing happened with vaccines to a large degree, right? A generatio

I thought ghost kitchens was a good idea: optimize for delivery, focus on foods that travel well, cut costs by using cheaper real estate in a smaller footprint and eliminating all the expenses that come along with people sitting in a space

If that's true why wasn't it already made the safest after the two Max 8 crashes that killed everybody on board.

That wouldn't defeat the purpose of it.

I seem to remember true crypt would allow you to make an encrypted container with AES, two fish and serpent. But it was all decrypted with a single password. So if you found that password you would have gotten through all three layers.

The ASIN is the product identifier, 10 characters, and it's what the buyer usually sees. Amazon would use something else behind the scenes to ensure things aren't comingled, probably FNSKU. If the ASIN was different it wouldn&#x27

Isn't that the same as every other marketplace though? The mall, Amazon, Steam, you name it.

I think most people who use Okta probably do so because it's required by their employer.

I get the emotional response, but it's not logical. The only thing the advertiser did wrong was pay Google to advertise their product. Can you imagine what percentage of products or services you regularly buy that have done that?

So if you see 10 ads in a day, say while you're sitting in a doctor's office, you hate each advertiser? What if one of them is from a business you already patronize?

I use an ad blocker just as a blanket response to too much crap on websites and being uninterested in having advertising be in my face as much as it would be without. However, that's not to say that all advertising is irrelevant, or th

An argument that someone could make, although maybe it's a bit logically suspect, is that Twitter is losing money for every user, and using Twitter is costing Musk more money than it's generating for him.

I've often thought this is some kind of market inefficiency that I don't quite have the vocabulary or expertise to describe. You don't get 5x more space or service. Shouldn't it be roughly proportional to how much more i
