I got “paid” $0.18/hr. in a federal complex in Colorado to make bologna sandwiches and other slop for other inmates on lockdown. They took out over $1/hr. (the difference expropriated from remittances I received from family) to pu

Totally not my experience. At most you get a phone number to call, which is a recording that won't even take a message. Shopify would be out of business from chargebacks if it catered to consumers instead of businesses. They've be

Not that these are prevalent in here, but here are a few reasons: 1. A company already has a candidate in mind for the role, and they want "plausible deniability" that they didn't try to fill the role through a competitive pr

For the record, I export from EasyEDA to Gerber to PCBWay all the time. PCBWay less likely to run into issues with weird design features and parts specs, but they are slower and more expensive. Elecrow also takes Gerber’s from EasyEDA.

The business needn't be dead, and in fact the "lessee" could resell it at a higher price. The ORIGINAL NFT. But most lessee dead businesses would eventually lose track of their credentials, and in fact many of the people simp

Maybe it’s the author’s second language, but they lost me when they likened an electrolyzer to a resistor. They have little in common. Thermolyzer, maybe there’s something there. If they hired me, I could make their project pass investor du

Brilliant! “Get Lost In The Middle” is what they’d call it.

You kidding? If the two of you are having an affair, you can take the whole $250 hotel room and 30 minutes’ drive each way/each person and replace it with a $20 driverless taxi and literally get the entire sordid experience delivered t

Lucky indeed. Spent 8 weeks there. It does something to you when it's July 4th and you look upon the Statue of Liberty, who is looking past you, through a federal detention window.

H4 is impossible under any temperature or pressure. A hydrogen atom has one, count 'em, one electron to bond with. And bonds require, at minimum, two electrons shared between the two atoms. That's why H2 is pretty stable compared

No, let’s not assume that. $100k sounds like enough but it goes so fast. You’re betting a lot on a hunch. If you spin your $100k as a founder’s share, it’s maybe less toxic. But investors want to see their money again, and revealing a share

Not clear if "potential investor" is the $100K or a future round of investment. $500k is obscenely low for most companies, but not all. Are you building a lemonade stand? An old expression is "any fool can sell a dollar for 9

I would often put out feelers on upwork, asking for a 1 hour project in the expertise area. Interview 100 people, hire (for the hour) 10, make offers to the top 1 or 2.

You're lying to at least one of us. Of course the counter exists to upsell. That may not be its sole or even primary reason for existing, but since the business exists to upsell, by attempting it every single time, how could the counte

I’m aware of gold membership and don’t want to deal with it, because it sounds scammy. I’ll book Hertz through Priceline or another travel site solely based on price and end up in a situation where if being a gold member applied, I see no i

It’ll never happen, but the first car rental company that abandons the timeshare presentation model of make-the-customer-wait-an-eternity-while-we-try-to-upsell-them will make all their competitors abandon it. Because once I hear Hertz, or

Consider your primary use case. For gaming, AMD tends to be the more popular choice because it offers (most of the time) more bang for the buck. If you want to try your hand at hackintoshing, Intel is your easiest option. It's not a ga

Aluminum smelting isn’t all that dispatchable. During times of crisis, it can be idled, but the reduction units aren’t designed to turn on and off subject to the whims of the market- capital equipment and labor to run it aren’t going to wor

Perhaps the latter. Certain types of screw convolving are essential to a number of my parts. That feature is mostly now missing from the free version, though my existing files with it can change the parameters (though not add additional). T

To the contrary, Stanford, for instance, has ~22% of its student body "White or Caucasian", when it used to be 40% in 2016. This swing didn't occur simply because white students stopped applying. https://stanfordre

If true, an in-person English fluency and personality interviewing process, even a supposedly race-blind one, tends to skew heavily against a majority of, but not all, Asian college applicants. That’s probably what your theoretical proxy wi

Liquid gasoline is actually pretty safe. It’s the fumes that can cause an explosion. A properly designed gas tank will prevent the formation of fumes, whether by having a “bladder” within (most modern cars do this) or perhaps some type of v

This is kind of sobering. Standard male levels of testosterone are between 3-7 ng/mL. Standard female levels of testosterone are between 0.1-0.7 ng/mL. And you're over 10 ng/mL of this crap? Even if this stuff is a fract
