Yes, exactly. They sent the money to their creditors. Had they accidentally sent it to someone who they didn't owe money to, the courts would order the money to be returned.

Not that I can point to, but people have witnessed the filming of these segments (Kimmel usually films them on the most touristy part of Hollywood Boulevard near his studio) and reported that this happens.

The idea should be that it probably will change, and to prepare for that you need to code it a way that if it does change, you have to update the code only in one or two places, you haven't scattered the knowledge of that detail all ov

When you are telling people that they are on Lie Witness News and ask them an absurd question, they know that their knowledge of current events is not being tested.

It is a bound. If they show a use of a term in 2002, you know it is at least that old, but it might be a good deal older. Shakespeare is often credited with inventing huge numbers of words, but it is more likely that he was just the first t

As others have mentioned they are a major source of methane emission, though this can be addressed (do a better job separating out food waste and compost it).

Yes, for that reason Santa Clara County (Silicon Valley) is pushing hard to divert food waste out of the garbage and get it composted instead: it's supposed to go in with yard waste, not the regular trash. Not sure how successful this

Depends on what the waste products are and how they are captured, otherwise you trade one problem for another. The plastic takes up space but if it's in a landfill you have carbon capture, best not to release that carbon into the air a

To do such a fork, wouldn't you have to build a completely new model with the same training data and everything else the same except leaving out the restrictions?

Read more carefully. The decision to send the case back to California on the argument that it wasn't solely a copyright matter was made by a federal court. It wasn't a California court decision.

Those weren't AAA mortgage securities that went bust in 2008, though some were fraudulently marketed as such. They were liar loans on second-rate properties chopped up into a bunch of tiny pieces and re-sold, based on the notion that r

Stablecoins function perfectly until they don't. The others aren't immune to this kind of failure, though they may be more resistant. Once they become unpegged, you can get a "run on the bank", since there's no insu

Not sure if you're serious, but no, he can't pull crap like that and neither can anyone else who signs a contract specifying a penalty in dollars. Rides to the ISS aren't dollars.

It is mostly bad, but occasionally they do something good; I would call this one example of that. Not worth sitting through the whole show, but the better bits can be found on YouTube or NBC's site.

Not just within range, connected to. Meaning you're close enough to have a strong signal. If it isn't a strong signal this can be detected and the system could scan in that case, looking for a better one.

But if the laptop is currently connected to a WiFi network with a known location, what's the point of scanning for networks to locate it? You already know that you're within range of a known spot.

Overhang seats. The size of the German parliament is variable to make everything come out right. If some party wins more first-past-the-post seats than their share of the second (party) vote entitles them to, extra seats are created to give
