I'm not an expert at all either, just mildly interested how this will play out. I don't have any money in it. There is an ongoing discussion about it on the Voyager subreddit https://www.reddit.com/r/Invest_Vo

Seems like a marketing spin to lure customers into a false sense of security. From the fine print in the user agreement: "Cash in the Account is insured up to $250,000 per depositor by the FDIC in the event the Bank fails if specific i

Personally, I don’t have a problem with a software project being run like a church. Don’t know what the legal situation is. How common are those views in question tough? I’d say about 9/10 Christians I know from Europe and Latin Americ

I think how many certs and how up-center in your cv you put them matters. E.g. if I'm hiring for a junior dev and get some self-taught person having done a couple of relevant online courses and so far managed to get a tech support role

Also interestingly, in both votes for and against, the deciding 1.01% came from the same account: 6HFxH...sf6g4 I admit, that I'm very ignorant how all this stuff works, but the voting seems a tad farcical. Is it just to see if some ot

Currently on the phone so can’t add many sources, but I think you can’t really compare the punctually of trains across european countries like this. E.g if I remember correctly in Germany, a train is late after 5 minutes 59 seconds, whereas

I think both are pretty good, but to my ears the UnrealSpeech ones all have very sharp, grating "s" sounds. The AWS voice is much smoother in this regard. Is this something that can be configured to a degree or would you have to p

I think it is more intertwined with your movie-watching habit. Akin to that in the DVD age most people probably only had maybe a couple of dozens, few with entire walls in their home dedicated to movie storage. Almost all of the movies&#x2F

I think usually the divide in other areas is much more about technical aspects. Whereas with crypto a lot of proponents fairly aggressively push an ideology, and trying to make you literally buy into it. Which leads to, at time, fairly aggr

People outright rejecting evolution I have met very few (I'm also outside the US). But I think it is a somewhat common view that evolution was kicked off and being shaped by a god. While the gist of evolutionary theory is simple to gra
