Venmo already lets you do most of this. You can access the balance via debit card. Others can send money by scanning a QR code. If I were going to build this from scratch, I would not immediately jump into being a bank. Obtaining a banking

It depends on how free college is implemented. If it’s a voucher system, where students get a certain amount to spend, the ISA night go away if the voucher covers the full cost of education. Otherwise, an ISA could still be used to cover th

California law [1] requires online services to offer an unsubscribe option. The only reason to add friction to the cancellation flow is to continue earning revenue from users who give up easily. [1] https://legiscan.com/CA&#

I believe the commenter is referring to the ability to add URLs and images to individual stories and tasks. If I’m doing frontend, I need mocks for major UI/UX changes.

This post is from 2015, and hasn’t aged well. The author doesn’t provide much evidence for why he hates Jira. People assuming Jira makes the team agile is a problem with those people, not the tool. The default workflow is “good enough”. The

This campaign doesn't require changing the constitution. States can decide how to divide their electors, which is exactly what is going on here. See https://www.nationalpopularvote.com/written-explanation .

Do you have data to support that claim? I did not have an explicit ethics subject at MIT. The closest we got was discussing Therac in 6.033.

The answer depends on the state and/or prison in the US. Many prisons don't have computers. If they do have internet access, it is heavily limited and monitored.

This is correct. When you order checks you decide The start number. Check processing is quite interesting. Banks can either be very lax or very restrictive in what checks they will accept.

That would help the unbanked, but would not help cannabis businesses or give the cities an entity through which they could invest funds in the form of loans.

That’s essentially what a credit union is. The depositors are members/shareholders, so there is less focus on profiting from fees. Much of the profit comes from loans back to the members.
