It's not even about inventory of individual items (like blood or enough scalpels) it's that they need to have every expensive machine. They need x-ray machines and MRI machines and proton beam cancer treatment and that stuff adds

Another problem is that one hip replacement is not the same as another. Differences in patients, complications arise, it's really hard to say you're going to need exactly X syringes and Y feet of gauze and Z liters of blood and wh

Except the premise is that it was a failure. It wasn't, it accomplished exactly what they set out to do

only a 2.65% decline in a commercial real estate REIT is probably beating the market

The premise of that article is way off base. Darwin didn't fail, because the point wasn't to create a robust open source operating system along the lines of Linux. Apple got everything they needed from the OSS community while prov

When the M6 Minis were announced I pre-ordered and Apple gave me $480 trade-in on my entry level M4 Mini that I paid $499 for about 14 months ago

how has that changed over the past 20 years? the proprietary parts of Mac OS X and now macOS have been proprietary from the beginning

>but we're not a fan of the ever-closing hardware and ecosystem What has changed about Apple's ecosystem vis a vis openness, hardware, or the 'ecosystem'? The macOS ecosystem is pretty much the same as it has been sin

No, you would sign the agreement before doing all the restructuring. Doing it first would be silly

Then what are the people voting to negotiate? They should just be presented with an in/out vote

by mixdup 28d ago
Great, this is an actual answer and makes sense. I mean it's a little silly but 100% makes sense

As long as they hold a confirmatory referendum before actually joining, it wouldn't matter. Also, if Iceland is a democracy the citizens could simply vote for someone else next time who wouldn't keep trying if that's not what

I'm not arguing whether or not they should join the EU, just questioning why it needs two stages of referrenda

Silk Road was running an online marketplace for heroin and hitmen. That is not the same as Uber pushing the boundaries on what a "taxi" is, and you obviously know that. FTX was a ponzi scheme and that is the one financial crime th

But that is quite literally what they are going to do. They're asking the public if they should try to join the EU. If yes, they will negotiate an agreement with the EU. Once the government has agreed a path forward with the EU, they&#

You would hold the confirmatory vote before you do all of that. You'd go to the EU, agree what joining looks like, and before doing any of the actual implementation you hold the vote

Polling would be good enough I would think here, do a poll and if you're within 10% of a majority being in favor, just do it and then let them decide on the final agreement. Be public with that stance so that the EU and the population

It's also pretty good about stacking up a second turn in the corner banner that shows your next maneuver

I guess they'll just have to live with your disappointment

It seems odd to hold a referendum on holding talks. Why not just negotiate an agreement and then hold a referendum on that agreement?

The environmental impacts of how that power is generated is not a sudden or new concern, it was a concern even if the power was delivered via the grid or not and the fact that the power is generated on site or whatever does not alleviate th

For the most part power grids are federally regulated. The exception is Texas because they are self-contained and don't cross state lines States rights is not why there are issues with the power grid EDIT: I should add, states DO also

You also have the right to voice your disapproval, which as the point of my reply to a comment that seemed to indicate otherwise

Democratic government must also allow the citizen body to voice their displeasure with the activity of the government, and to give their reasons for that displeasure

The executive only has discretion if the law says they do. If the law says they must or shall do something, they must do that thing. If it says they MAY do something or otherwise explicitly gives them discretion in making a decision, then y

That's not a good analogy. Stripe and Visa don't deposit the money in their account and hold on to it, it literally goes directly from the payer to the payee, they just facilitate the technical movement Insurance money goes from t

Including how and why it died. That is an important lesson for the entire governmental enterprise, including all decision-makers, to learn: that government CAN deliver something good and one single person should not be in totalitarian contr

This is not even in the same realm of reality as an emergency. There really was not even a reason this should've been reported in the news.
