Unless they have extended their exercise window beyond that standard 90d, those lottery tickets may cost a lot is money to retain after leaving for another job. So much so that companies exist solely to extend loans for them. You don't

It seems that PHP (or at least the community) is taking a lot of inspiration from hack for its newer additions, and giving very little in the way of credit or comparisons. It is weird than an article like this shows nothing for ctrl+f "

I think the idea is that it's plausibly someone else calling, since you made the documents containing contact info public (which is legal I hope?).

I have failed to finish a few times. Not necessarily because they get harder (tho that contributes), but because I go at the speed/time I'm willing to dedicate and once the new year hits I invariably lose interest Still enjoy what

I took a few actuarial exams at center like this (USA, passed some failed others). I was pretty impressed. Cost was fair, seemed like it'd be hard to cheat. Most common exams being taken there looked like TOEFL, GRE, MCAT. I don't

Titan/Iron is (was?) an algorithmic undercollateralized stablecoin pair. Iron was the $1 one actually. This is not a meaningful comparison to fully collateralized coins like USDC or Tether. They may have their own issues, but the certa

You can. It serves over http. You can control via ssh+mpc (you'll want to turn the local volume at home to zero most likely). There's also android clients. It's been a while since I've done this, but from what I remember

Are Mersennes any more or less likely to be excluded by a probabilistic primality test than other numbers might be?

Can you explain finding Mersenne primes so CPU intensive? Mₙ = 2ⁿ − 1 gives an easy to generate candidate set and testing primality of a single number isn't that expensive. 57885161th candidate being the 48th hit is getting pretty sp
