Somewhat off-topic: has anyone implemented USB C based networking? So for instance you have two or more machines that have USB 4 ports at 20 to 80 Gbps and you plug in the appropriate USB C cables to connect them. What do you need to make t

Not sure what you mean by 'binned'. In some Common Law jurisdictions the deed document represents the property and whoever psychically holds of the deed controls the property. Any centralized recording system merely records the la

Why would anyone let you do that? What's their incentive? I assume you're offering something as security for that money (shares?) but why would people complicate an already risky proposition further or go into the money lending bu

The Grifter in Chief. You also have to add the numerous kickbacks Trump's family has received through deals done by the federal government. All this is hardly reported because the administration has successfully cowed the media.

The fact that you think that past performance dictates future competence is mind blowing. What I described is the hard reality of the Chinese economy right now. Go read about it if you don't believe me. There are a bunch of forces that

Selling at a loss isn't required. Local governments are over-funding numerous producers (though cheap loans and other subsidies and incentives) creating excess competition. This is an ongoing problem and is a huge misallocation of capi

Maybe for you personally, but in a general sense I don't see how you can hold a phone and "use both hands" to type individual keys. One notable advantage of swiping is that you can be quite loose with each single swipe gestur

It should be 1 for correct, 0 for don't know and -1 for wrong. They are much better incentives. In real life a wrong answer is much more damaging than a don't know.
