On the pricing page: "Without proof of a lower rate, default processing is 2.9% + $0.30 for VISA/Mastercard/ Discover, 3.5% + $0.30 for AMEX, and $20 for any chargeback dispute not covered."

There might be a case where you expected the compiler to constexpr something but it didn't. I can imagine cases where a heavy function getting called more than once, because you had expected it to be pre-computed.

Sometimes you cannot get better data. Insights provided from self-reported studies are not necessarily externally valid, yet they are valuable nevertheless.

> Antwerp also recently introduced a measure where only cars with a low amount of "exhaust gases" (can't really find the proper name as of writing this) are allowed in the city centre. I haven't been there since, but

Market cap is not what you think it is. If there are X amount of bitcoins with the last one traded at price P, then the market cap is X * P. However, if people attempted to liquidate these bitcoins into 'real' currency, P would co

I don't really understand the use of the word 'sharing' in this context. This is just a rental system without a preset pickup location. Same goes for similar bike sharing services as well. Can anybody tell me if there's

I'd say muhallebi is closer to blancmange than tavuk göğsü, which is literally made from chicken meat.

Interesting research; I would have suspected that there would be a snowball effect where those minuscule weights add up to significant changes in the end, but seems not.

Same with economics; when someone says in the comments for a rant piece that homo economicus is a core concept of all modern economics because that's what they learned in that one 101 class they took... Grr...

Unfortunately you cannot reuse the icons that way, which does end up being wasteful unless you use compression.

I think the problem now is that the dithering is no longer done on the screen space, but instead looks like a texture slapped on top of the objects in orthogonal projection. You can easily notice it in the comparison shots; you'll noti

Unfortunately, no matter how you twist and turn it ordinal data is going to stay ordinal. You cannot try to make it meaningful regardless of how you aggregate it.

Probably they take away seat space from others and put an extra row in the back (3 in 2 rows). Likely it gives just enough space to pass a threshold.

In all fairness, you are wrong about your first argument. Both demand and supply curves are empirically observable through auction mechanisms and market reaction tests. I'd be happy to forward you to research on them if you are intere

What do you mean by secure? Verified content? If so, all you need is the hash of the file and such hashing can protect essentially all forms of files as long as the source of the hash is trustworthy.

To me, it's just reminiscent of the movie Whiplash. Sometimes it helps to lash (excuse the pun) out.

You get used to it. It's a different set of skills, and your reaction times also improve over time. Hand signals help too. Although I still avoid the very center, with all the oblivious tourists walking on bicycle lanes...

Well, this is exactly how financial markets function and why it's so hard to beat the market. I think these people deserve the benefits if they can come up with these solutions; none of them are inherently malicious after all.
