   Where can I find more detailed information on how Earn-IT changes encryption law? I just skimmed the Wikipedia article but it doesn't seem to insist that this act changes encryption law. Just that "best practices" that would

   I've been ignoring Dropbox Paper at my company but will now try using it on my next doc. What major features would you say Paper has that GDocs lacks?

   I remember during the dot-com bubble of the late 90's there was talk of all the malls closing due to online shopping. At the time I thought it was silly, people want to get out, it's not all about just buying stuff online, etc. In

   I haven't signed up for a cert in a while, is some form of personal/business validation still required? I'm just wondering if forcing HTTPS everywhere will make it difficult to anonymously own your domain in the future.

   Lol, growing up in Ohio I've heard this same thing but for various different reasons over the years. Would be interesting to see an authoritative source if one exists

    I have to wonder how much investing in some of today's tech behemoths comes down to viewing them more as a holding company / investment firm and less about their original core products. Microsoft has lost tons of desktop share ove

    I've heard that this theory is true, I've also heard that it is a myth that it is true, and I've even heard that it is a myth that it is a myth.

    OP is probably talking cumulative energy. The vast majority of households probably have dryers in the US. The vast majority of households also DO NOT have crypto mining rigs.

    I found it crazy how for years, River Phoenix was the only person of the main cast to die even though he was early 20's. Is Sidney now the first death since then?

    I remember a story a while back of a gentleman who had a house fire and then went and later pirated all the music CDs he had lost. I think they interviewed a copyright lawyer who basically says that the law doesn't permit that, I remem

    Neat coding challenge. You get the benefit of something rather simple and straight forward while getting to spend more focus on how to scale such a system.

    I'd like to point out a less popular point that the FDWW does not lie only with employers improving but also is the decision of individuals. I remember reading somewhere about a survey where they asked people what they would do if they

    Interesting timing for me. I just happened to finish reading this book for the first time. I often wondered while reading what Cliff might be up to these days. Guess he's posting on HN!

    1) What I heard is that we will never "run out" of oil because there will always be oil that is more expensive to extract than the current market price. Thus, the price can always increase if there is sufficient demand and then th

    Not everyone has the ability to buy options in their 401k. Most IRAs don't have it without permission. Timing, take a look at Nov 07, had you bought a leap then, it would have taken until Jan 11 to just break even, you're really p

    I've been considering something similar but routinely pulling the gains into something more stable like TLT/TIP/NUSI and rebalancing within certain limits.

    Also of good note, there are many Wikipedia articles with spoken recordings available for free. I once listened to the entire hour long article of the Cold War. Not something I would have likely read completely otherwise. https:/&#x2F

    You could probably do that with something like M1, it's just on you to decide which companies. Start with all companies of the S&P500 and start removing the ones you don't like.
