I wonder if a company can be DoS'd via privacy request maybe they are collecting more data than they can effectively handle and that should be re-examined.

I have a love/hate relationship with it. I follow many statistics & data science professionals and it's a great way to discover new books, resources, and content. But you have to wade through a lot of crap, even with a heavi

USDT's value is pegged to $1. USD is not pegged to anything else really.

I was just going off my own experience with React through the years. It was very hard to compose behavior with class based components. We had to create higher order components that had functions as children which could pass down data as a

It would be funny if it were true. Hooks were made for composable behavior for components.

Tax evasion and speeding are not in the same category of crime, not even close. One is generally an infraction (not even a misdemeanor) and the other is a felony.

Last time I looked average student loan debt was around 30k. Not 500k. Yet we still hear all the time about how that is crippling. So much so that we need the taxpayer to come in and pay off all these loans for college graduates. So even

If these are temp passwords that get changed on first login and expire maybe it's not so bad. If it is a normal password though yes that is pretty bad.

I just removed the extra paragraphs because I'm not sure you made it down to that one lol.

That’s not really staking. It’s just lending your eth to a staker which is completely different.

As for certifying whether your business needed it or not you had to make a statement saying it was necessary for you to continue the business on the loan app. But it was an honor system. It will be up to the government to search out &

When you stake, you are still processing transactions and creating blocks/forming consensus similar to what mining did. This isn't really comparable to investing in a security. Just because you can join a staking pool which often

They are far below. The 3090 original MSRP was $1500 and you can find them brand new for under $1000 now.

There were limits on what you could spend the other 40% on (defined categories of expenses). You could spend 100% on payroll if you wanted, but it had a minimum of 60%. The other 40% had to be used for specific things such as building mai

Social safety nets are one thing. But in those countries don't fool yourself capital still breeds capital. Also the U.S. does have social safety nets. In fact the largest source of government spending is on them. I'm not sayi

If this were true we would not still be dependent on fossil fuels.

I agree Bitcoin probably won't be carbon negative any time soon if ever. But electricity is definitely not fungible as production is not always in the same place as demand.

Inflation is basically the exact definition of the change in USD's value relative to goods & services. Unless you are arguing we currently don't have any inflation, which would be a tough sell :) Also this last CPI report oil

Interesting take. The only people that notice inflation are the ones that actually look at prices :) It's great you don't have to think about prices at all but that is really out of touch with most of not only America but basica

It's not that simple in my opinion. The major driver of inflation coming down was ironically energy/oil. What was unexpected was that inflation increased in many other areas. Most things went up in price from what I can tell. S

I used to spend a lot of time in flight simulators and am very interested in VR. What headsets have you used? Just a Quest 2? Or one of the high end ones?

Yes. We have a fixed basic connection charge of $20. So it's really close to your $0.13/kWh when that is taken into account. I wasn't trying to be misleading though because the point is the basic charge does not increase wi

I use suspend on my PC and I definitely do not run it 24h, or anywhere close to that. Also power is $0.08/kWh where I live.

The power cost of running my enthusiast build is on the order of a few dollars a month. Now I am all for being green but there are things in my household that are much more of a concern than this. Huge datacenters full of these chips is one

I agree, but in the article they define an API as one accepting JSON. So I was just going with the conventions they were using.
868.
by nightski 4y ago
I'd say the fact that an API is JSON is a huge technical impediment to EDI. While JSON is great, it's incredibly verbose and not a great format for large amounts of data. Also let's face it, while one can design with effort

Well the voo has consistently outperformed vtsax when bought and held so I feel my point stands. A strategy is a strategy. You have to choose one when you invest no matter how simple or complex.
