And to me the interesting question here is, if we both buy cheap 10$ tokens, and agree to buy these from each other at 1000$ and "lose our keys" will we be able to collect insurance on the lost asset? Will we be able to deduct the

People complaining they they want the game on stadia and blaming the creator are really just being assholes. Imagine if you spent 3 full weeks figthing some extremely obvious extremely silly but on some system, like adding two integers caus

That sounds a bit like claiming that it's scamy a company founder gets a higher salary than future employees. Of cause the company is allowed to raise money anyway it sees fit, including providing discount for individual investors for

That seemed to have happened even though the code wasn't available. So yes, you are absolutely correct, people will lie, willfully or ignorantly.

I imagine that if Atlassian could get permission from its many JIRA customers, then doing a text-based ml-categorization of issue descriptions alongside completion times would be extremely interesting. I'd wager that data is just as po

True, but the only lines that seem to be redacted are those on page 91 under "Massage , Florida (a)". I would expect this document could have been more heavily redacted, though its curious that a hand full of lines remain redacted

Lets pretend Tether has no backing what so ever. They could still defend the peg 1:1 completely. How? Well if someone wants to sell a bunch of tether, they simply print even more tether, use that to buy crypto on exchanges, and sell that cr

Well ofcause you can. A pyramid scheme keeps paying out profits to the chumps right up to the point when it doesn't. The argument here isn't that Tether has no cash on hand, it's that if enough people pull out, they hit the t

Our solution to this is just to publish notebooks to an internal gitlab repo. Easy to share read-only versions, it renders a bit different but looks close enough. You can then easily manage user access rights in gitlab and contributing back

There definitely is violent scenes and sounds in the game. I would not recommend playing it with young children for instance. However I would myself not put in the same box as other games in the "intense violence" category. Mostly

I am in the same boat as the author of having only recently played Return of the Obra Dinn between Christmas and new years. I cannot recommend it enough, if you haven't played it and like puzzlers you should pick it up. It's an ex

Seems like a bit of a reverse Occam's razor to explain that when the timer is at 0.501 it shows 1 and when its 0.499 it shows 0, is due to a fake secondary timer running with a 500ms offset that is rounded down, instead of just saying

I honestly can't say. It's quite easy to use and broadly supported. Even excel can directly pull data from oData Sources with a couple of clicks. If anyone else has some insights into the lack of uptake of oData I would love to he

I know this isn't your place to fix, but honestly align with your scrum master and just stage a walk-out of the "parking-lot" meeting for you and the team. You should not be required to attend this. After doing this a couple
