A public register for balance sheets is quite usual, isn't it? It is basically the next feature to implement after establishing a company register. I am quite often checking on potential business partners using the relevant company reg

I am happy for anyone proposing a better option to finance a modern society than taxes. As long as this is not the case, I find it hard to understand to see anyone, surely enjoying the benefits of a working modern society, describing the me

Interesting idea. I'd say they are just not intelligent enough to really figure out how to kill as many as possible. If they where intelligent, they would understand that terrorism rarely works in achieving its stated goals and do some

Interesting. But they did not say if the bus actually removed more pollutants than it creates on its own. As cars (and busses) do have some serious wear and tear on wheels and breaks. > According to tests, audited by manufacturer Pall, a

The big question: do we have to disable updates to the iOS app? Usually the app and the speaker FW are connected, if you upgrade one, the other must also be upgraded. If they stop upgrading the speakers but the app does upgrade... This happ

Some things are actually acceptable, not necessarily good, if only done/available on a small scale. But get problematic once done on a large scale. Good example is paper records, lots of sensible stuff is recorded on paper records. Acc

From my understanding fuel is supposed to be dumbed above a certain height. High enough that it should evaporate fully before reaching the ground.

Fuel is dumped to get the weight of the plane at or below the defined max landing weight. While a plane is unlikely to explode during an overweight landing, it might receive expensive structural damages from an overweight landing. Anyway ex
