For a long time fixed income trading took place over AOL Instant Messenger and later Yahoo chat rooms. I am not making this up. There were custom frontends that would enrich things like cusips.

There are lots of small insurers at least. Multiple resources on the internet put the startup costs at $500K or less. That's not much more than fast food or other high touch retail startups by comparison. There are certainly a few ste

It happens in the private sector too. I was involved in procurement at a megacorp for several years. At one point one of my colleagues asked for assistance in getting an order of 500 iphones approved. As "spares". Fortunately th

CNC milling is typically included in the bans being considered in various states. While poetically consistent, it enlarges the crater around these bad laws if they are passed and enforced. Basically all new manufacturing setups will need t

It doesn't help that a lot of security software is pretty niche. It's unreasonable to expect most candidates to know it or have experience. In one case I was one of exactly two people out of 500 that had used the product as a pay

From having worked at and consulted with security software producing companies as well as security software consuming ones, I would say the security companies are worse than average at security. And their security teams more cynical. Someti

It seems hard to donate a trademark application to someone. Trademarks seem like a sore spot for successful OSS but probably useful for solving this problem. Or perhaps a license change? Might be tricky to do what the author means and stil
