I imagine a future where the workers are on the Irish side of the border but the servers are on the UK side of the border. One still enjoys the tax advantages of the value being added on the Irish side, but also the relatively lax data requ

Not that I am an expert, but like (I assume) most people I put in my time in the dating mines. And this is my observation about people who have this complaint: the vast majority of couples are aesthetically matched. You might be hoping for

But the beneficiaries are, in theory, the people of the state. In the Obama/Trump drone equivalency case -- or pick another president and some other war -- one might argue that the people are more culpable because we have a democracy.

I suppose this is worth saying but "the regime" is different people. Complaining about attending the investment conference because of the terrible murder of JK is like complaining that foreigners should not attend US conferences d

And who needs Shopify fulfillment? Just set up 10-20 warehouses, hire a few hundred workers, train them, get an HR rep, IT, finance, and support, and you're off to the races! Kids are so lazy these days, with their long hair and their

You can only effectively directly manage so many people. So as you hire more people you need more managers but then you get too many managers to directly manage so you need another level. Imagine you had 10,000 people working for you. Just

Evolution wasted its time making fish move around, vision, reproduction, gills and so on. The replacement just has to taste very similar, not hurt animals, be reasonably priced, sustainable to produce and healthy or neutral for health.

I'm very interested in the first version you wrote. It just seems like a good example of an MVP. You got the site up in Wordpress fairly quickly, modified it using PHP to your liking (did you have to in order to implement features), an

Firstly, the choice is not between a 2% loss or a 40% loss. The choice is between a 2% loss and a 0% loss by buying or selling at the fair market price. Why take a loss if you don't need to? Secondly, I don't think I agree with yo

I am not sure what you mean: why take a loss if you don't need to? You don't mind a loss if that is the only way to launder money but if you can launder money without the loss, then why should you take the loss?

980k would be 2%. But more importantly, why would the person buy a property for more than it was worth just because they're laundering money? They would buy a million dollar house at fair value to launder their money.
