I thought Square did this, but it must be one of the other systems. There are buttons for 15%, 18%, and 20% and a custom button that allows you to enter an arbitrary amount.

Upfront as in before the service? I have a problem with automated gas pumps asking if I need a receipt before I finish the transaction just in case they use that as a cue to skim from my transaction. I would be very uncomfortable deciding w

Dumb question, but I'm a scientist and not in this field: how does this work? If I want to commit a certain amount for a certain valuation, how will my "portfolio" grow? By actual valuation placed down the line? Is there a qu

I'm sure it varies by department/university, but the police at my not-very-big urban university had it's own force comprised of sworn county police officers. That empowered them to give speeding tickets on the public streets

I'm pretty sure if they add efficacy endpoints to Phase I, it becomes a Phase I/Phase II and the efficacy is for Phase II. The other problem with efficacy in Phase I is that alzheimer's efficacy is not measured over such shor

Can you explain this a little more? Are there different groups where each group has a mentor or shared resources?

That's true, but the local Fox affiliate in my area seems to be way more alarmist than the other stations. They talk about a couple inches of snow as the biggest winter storm this season. While true, it's a bit exaggerated in an a

I don't see an about page, is this entirely automated on the Alexis end? Could I send a picture of two outfits and ask which looks better? Does it have location-aware suggestions?

I've heard (with no evidence) that it is usually someone on the team who wants to go somewhere, and they get approval by taking the cameras with them. I'm sure that's an oversimplification, but perhaps there is some truth to

Perhaps, but I think $1 across enough sites would be fine to me. The problem for me is that my dollar will almost certainly go to one or two of the sites each month. In that case, I'll just go pay for that website's upgraded servi

Children born with ambiguous genitalia were often operated on to form one gender or the other. While this wasn't for a biological reason, the rationale was justified by social science. There are issues that arise from children not iden

I'd wonder where the regulators are going to learn the skills needed to regulate. Drug development is not quite like academic research.

Right, but surely if he wanted to, he could hire someone to do it his way for $5 million. He probably just likes the way the furniture fits the house or something like that.

It depends on how certain you are that someone is a suspect. If you just get to go around doing anything to a person because the FBI put him on a list, that's sort of a slippery slope, in my opinion.

I don't live there, but I've been several times. As I understand it, Boulder county owns all of the land around Boulder and won't sell it, so the city can't expand. I think there's also a lot of restriction on how h
