There are a number of providers in this space at the moment, but as other commenters pointed out, actual-pre-paid cards are likely to be inconvenient for your end users due to the fees/limitations that are often associated with them. T

This assumption (which is largely correct) gets thrown out the window when the entire tranche of supply is hit with a cost increase all at the same time (and every participant knows it). The point of this "margin" you mention gets

I'm not disgreeing that there can be valid benefits of higher property taxes. The problem with it though is that it is a very regressive tax, especially in states that get the majority of their income from property tax as compared to i

Your experiene may be different, but I've only even heard of this (RSUs before options) at the very early, pre-fundraising, stage. And this only works because the taxable value of these RSUs at grant is basically $0. I'm not sure

You can monitor for the second case and react accordingly, you just don't monitor for them in the same fashion as 5xx class errors (which yes, despite what this article is about, I'm still using that term). For 5xx errors you shou

This incident happened ~20 years ago. The state of “online gambling”, as well as loopholes/implementations, has likely changed in that time. As well, just because there is one way where online gambling is legal, does not mean that all

In this case S3 is just a thing that can serve a static HTML page, which I'm not sure I would consider proprietary in any way, and Cloudflare is just a way to serve it basically for free. This isn't anything that has proprietary

Probably not even necessary to do that much. Point it at Cloudflare backed by an S3 bucket with a single "in memorandum" page and host it until the end of technology as we know it for ~$1.
