Making buses salons washable doesn't cost millions. Maybe seamless assembly is expensive, but you don't need it. Steam washable is enough.

I do like the same thing. That's why I don't buy Apple things for personal use, and it doesn't even feel like a trade-off. I may agree with using blunt and stupidly heavy weapon which is gov't (in this case supragov'

Trust in a bank's stablecoin obviously tied to trust in that bank's stability in general. So this particular problem is reduceable to the one we've been having all the time banks exist.

There's no such thing as "untranslatable words", and every text which claims existence of one, immediately translates it. The linked story is no different, of course.

How do you work in terminal having that hard pass feeling? There are numerous CLI utils written in scripting (usually interpreted) languages. They do their job so well that some of them are here for decades already. Actually quite a lot of

Thinking in percents is not always the way to make a correct assumption. $300 mln is still $300 mln even if it's 0.6% of whatever budget, and claiming that it won't make a difference is not particularly logical. The man's mot

"Vast majority" is not even an applicable term here. It is specifically about green gurus with jets (which is not a myth, but observable political phenomenon), and if you're not rich enough, not politically influential, and d

Your reasoning seem to be based on a very wrong assumption that people from poorer countries, or sending to poorer countries would not buy BTC with dollars or euro. Just for starters, USD is the first currency of choice for major (relative

Sure, if someone happen to be a citizen of a repressive dictatorship - then either it's for a good reason, or we should change the dictatorship! Sounds easy!
