As another comment on here points out, the power produced from the solar panels is nowhere near enough to power the charging station. At best, it helps them offset the costs slightly due to the difference between the price they sell the (so

From the jobseaker's perspective having a salary range listed, even if it's a broad range like "various positions $40k-$100k", tells me whether it's worth my time applying. If the range of numbers doesn't cover what I want my target salary

Dark pools sound more ominous than they often really are. Most of the time, it's just trades that are done directly between two instituions (often via a broker-dealer like BGC or ICAP) rather than via an exchange.

If the total value of any trades that might have been made in the claimed 400ms window was only $50k, it would suggest to me that there was nothing untoward going on, and that this story is most likely nothing more than a clock error. For a

The devil you know and all that. Goldman might screw you, but you're still getting a good deal compared to the bank you don't have a long term relationship with. In many ways it's no so different with the managing agents my building co-op a

Likewise, I'd not say that it's 'most' of their money, but pretty much every bank I know of will happily take the opposing position to their clients. In many cases though, this is just the bank providing the market to their clients, especia

At least for Apple it seems to be a profitable hobby which is more than can be said for some PC makers. It certainly seems like there's a downtick in computer buying as a whole - perhaps because its a fairly saturated market that's now driv

Not always, but very often. Guidelines in the US and Europe recommend compressions which are four or five cm deep, and that's a pretty significant percentage of the distance from your sternum to your back. Remember of course that one of the

I would assume that someone made a complaint to Apple, which then forces Apple to take action and investigate - at that point there's likely a procedure that they need to follow mandated by Apple's Legal department for how it gets handled.

No, it's a purely practical consideration. Within your ISP's network bandwidth is cheap, once it has to move over to other networks then those 5Mbps streams start adding up quite quickly. If 1600 people on an ISP were to steam in HD simulta

I think that technically those are sedatives not anaesthetics, and might be used with numbing agents or nerve blockers just so that you're less aware of what's being done to you in cases where there's no need for a general anaesthetic. For
