Yes I believe search produces the lion's share of revenue for the company still. But yeah, all of their products/services work together to build a comprehensive dataset about the user.

I can't tell if this is a joke or not. Sounds like an easy way to develop horrible documentation-free, semi-functional systems. The future is gonna be filled with disinterested one time contractors and employers who fraudulently refuse

Yes, I'm just talking about the mode of transportation I see how my original comment is confusing. I am all for better cycling infrastructure and have no beef with cyclists themselves.

Sure. Just like how a reckless driver is traffic too. Doesn't mean cyclists or the reckless drivers are automatically justified.

People don't like bicyclists because they are observably more dangerous. I think cyclists should have their own paths where possible. But honestly, I think the cyclists are the ones being selfish by disrupting traffic, endangering them

Is there any definitive source on this? I get lots of conflicting information from my brief google search. Equities and Cryptocurrencies are not treated the same for tax purposes by the IRS. It seems like they are treated as property and do

I really am struggling to see the practical value here. You have to provide collateral worth more than your borrowed amount. The rates are HORRIBLE for borrowers. Straight up predatory. The anonymity part is cool, but if I want to borrow to

I believe that technically, any conversion between crypto assets is still a taxable event. If you want to follow the (silly) rules, you have to pay taxes on your gains once you purchase something using your borrowed stablecoin.

Yup! Processes see/use virtual memory, not the literal physical RAM address spaces. The kernel maintains mappings between virtual-physical and will allocate/free physical memory as needed. All of this is invisible to the process.

by rank0 6y ago
In fact, this is the entire premise of virtual memory! More memory is/can be allocated than physical memory exists. Each process has its own isolated address space with (from the process perspective) "unlimited" size.

That's very interesting I was not familiar with the concept of velocity. It still seems to me that velocity can vary depending on the underlying entity. So unless every asset has the same velocity measure as the items in the CPI basket

There's actually considerable debate on the subject. I find it reasonable that things which are outside the CPI basket can indeed experience inflation. https://www.investopedia.com/articles/07/consumerpriceind

Short squeezes happen organically all the time. Its not that short squeeze = manipulation, its that WSB induced a short squeeze as a coordinated effort. A forum with 2 million members advertised and coordinated a massive purchase of shares.
