For the price of the watch (mid-end) and the price of the maintenance (fairly high end), I'm guessing Omega, but maybe a Breitling ? Doubt it's a Tag because of the maintenance cost Cartier, Rolex, Patek Phillipe, and those brand

It isn't. Without commingling I know for a fact that if I buy from Amazon I'm going to get a genuine product (I don't really think Amazon acquires their stock through grey channels). With commingling, I no longer the guarante

Would you buy a 13K lottery ticket? If you have enough money that you would go ahead man, but the chances of striking it big probably aren't much better at this stage.

Or just use an angle sensor on the control surfaces? You now have two measurements: What the computer is telling the hardware to set the angle to, what the angle actually is. These two are very different but very important pieces of informa

You would probably start by co-locating in multiple data centers, if you rent large amounts of space you can get quite decent deals. You'd have to do this with the best DCs you could find, however. Once you had enough demand to merit y

I think it makes sense if the business relationship is actually artist <--> patreon <---> consumer. The client pays patreon, so patreon must sublicense the content to him. Otherwise I'm lost.

I think that's a very dangerous pivot though. True, there is a lot of money to be made in financial engineering, financing, et al. I also think that's where companies go to die long term, even if it is a huge profit center short t

A Car that is in the shop for free is still car that is out of service. Getting it fixed at no cost is the minimum I expect, but what I really want is to have no issues with the car at all. So I agree with Consumer reports. Also, it's

I guess our differing point of view comes mainly from the fact that I don't see energy storage solutions become viable in the near or medium future. I believe battery tech is progression slower than fusion. We will also need a clean ba

If Google or MS give you options, or RSUs, or whatever, they are essentially cash. You'll be able to liquidate them at market price as soon as you vest. So in those companies stock options are a real form of compensation. For startups
