That it is. It's also pretty awesome with salmon [0], 43°C for an hour then take it out, pat the skin dry, and crisp the skin in a cast iron skillet with some oil, serve immediately. Crispy skin and buttery soft salmon makes for a grea

How fast is the treadmill going? For walking desks it seems that it needs to be a pretty slow pace, and slower than the pace at which one would normally walk.

With the current regulations in place, it's definitely possible that regulated drugs have killed more people than unregulated drugs. Would that still be the case without any regulation? All the regulations do is ensure that products in

There's also settlement and reversibility of transactions. A check might be cleared and settled, but later discovered to be a fraudulent check, reversing the transaction.

Since neither Amazon or Netflix allow you to pay cash, the transaction settles much later. You get the appearance of immediate settlement, not unlike the stock market in normal conditions. I'd assume if one were to check out from Amazo

If the buyers decide to hold their shares, then yes they could corner the market. I believe the broker could just elect to not pay the price and fail to deliver on the IOU. The SEC keeps a list of FTDs and publishes it twice a month [0]. If

It's not unlike fractional reserve banking. Imagine three participants: Alice, Bob, and Charlie. Alice owns a share of Foo Corp, the only such share that exists. Bob decides to short Foo Corp, and borrows a share from Alice's brok

You're right, what I meant is that the share price doesn't affect the finances of the company (eg. a company that sells widgets makes the same amount of money whether their stock is worth $1 or $100000). As you point out, the shar

Good point. Out of curiosity, has that actually happened to a public stock? I'd assume the minority shareholders would have standing for a lawsuit if someone were to do a hostile takeover of a stock and liquidate the assets of the comp

Why would GameStop have gone bust? Even if GameStop stock would trade at zero, the company still exists until it runs out of money and declares bankruptcy, which is independent of its stock price. In this case, it's not really saving a
