A combo of your IP, browser fingerprint plus the fact that you logged in somewhere and that links to your actual name etc. Identify you in isolation is not very useful. It's connecting that identity to another place that's valuabl

China, Russia are not members of the ICC for the same reason the US is not. They do not want extra territorial entities applying laws to their citizens and soldiers.

Of course they can. Good luck trying to serve and execute that warrant though. And non ICC countries are squarely within their rights to retailiate. Most minor former colonies of the EU countries can't, but the US, China, Russia can.

TLDR: he's a member of the ICC. Issues warrants against Israeli political leaders. Neither Israel nor the USA (nor China, Russia, India) are parties to the international conventions that formed the ICC. He's being sanctioned as a

Sometimes, a visible example does that. I know of numerous people in Mumbai who do servant jobs, whose kids have gone to engineering schools and gotten corporate jobs. This sort of story - 1st in my family to go college - needs to be promin

The MTA operates in more than just NYC, and the governor controls it. They raised ticket prices a few weeks ago, fwiw. He has a bully pulpit, but that's about it.

If you buy a PUT, you pay the premium. You'll lose that if your option expires out of the money. If you sell a PUT, your exposure is much greater; you're the one who has to pay up if the option ends up in the money. The deadline i

Not quite. If a company is buying back shares, management believes stock is undervalued. The reverse is paying for real assets with stock. Some of this is paying for barely useful assets using inflated stock, or with cash borrowed with infl

This is just one example of the logical end state of grossly over prioritizing capital over labor in the economy.

The "in violation of Federal Law" is crucial. You can argue it's only there to cover the admin's ass, but Federal Law (the actual statues) already prohibits any favoritism or discrimination on the basis of skin color etc

This. The quotes I got for a single 2 ton heat pump with a oil backup ranged from $15K to $45K. It's insane and really made me look into the DIY installs. Even if I broke 2 of those it would still be cheaper than one professional one.

It actually might. Older code running in production is almost automatically regression tested with each new fix. It might not be pretty, but it's definitely more reliable for solving real problems.

Sorta. The reason to go thru insurance is to count the money paid against your deductible. If you pay cash outside insurance, it doesn't. And if you have an HSA, you have a high deductible plan.

Bingo. There's little to no employment creation here besides some temporary construction jobs. I hope these governors cry foul.

The VPPA very much applies to online entities. Netflix can collect all the info it wants about you, but is very much limited in what it can share with external parties. If anything, the law has given cover to shady walled garden business pr

While true, this is the devil's bargain we have struck in 2008. Big banks betting on RMBSs got a bailout and removed the moral hazard there. People with mortgages rightfully revolted and this FEMA scheme is one of the ways in which mon

There's a marketing corollary that is called the Modified Pareto. Briefly that it's not 80/20 but 60/20. That is 20% of the heaviest or power users will consume 60% of the product. But that means the 80% will actually co

Sure, as long as they're not too big to fail. Those big banks should've gone bankrupt in 2008. They didn't because the taxpayer backstopped it. That is precisely the moral hazard we're now living with. Become so big that
