I keep my iPhones for many years before buying a new one and never had the lighting port die. What happens though is that the port gets dirt inside and stops working. There are tiny brushes (available on Amazon) which solve it and the port

Mini split systems can be used with ducts. All big venders sell heads which are specifically made to be connected to ducts. That way you get the best of both worlds and its also easy to retrofit to an existing (ducted) house.

Though mini split heads can be ducted too. There are several choices, wall heads, ceiling heads, ducted heads etc. The wall head is just the cheapest solution since it’s very easy to install.

The wall of links is what pays Google ad money. Website owners pay a lot of money to be presented on top of the search results because of that. I would assume it’s quite difficult to keep making the same amount of ad money by having a Chat

He doesn’t need to shiphon anything. All the “donated” money is still in his control. In order to be effective at tax deference you need to separate the concept of who ownes the money and who controls it. As long as you still control it, it

Coinbase probably does all this because they want to be a reliable, profitable and somehow auditable business. If you don’t care what happens to customers funds, sure, yes, provide leverage and all kinds of tokens to your customers. I guess

They obviously rewrite Twitter back to Python! Afterall, this shouldn’t take them more than a Sunday afternoon - or at least that’s what Elon gave them as the deadline.

Could also just be driven because of the zoning. For example a 2-bed unit usually requires two parking spots. So its better to build two 1-bed units. Same amount of parking but more rental income because usually 2-bed units aren’t double th

Switzerland doesn’t have capital gains tax except for professional stock traders. So there wouldn’t be any tax on the gain after vesting. But yeah it’s a gamble on the stock price that’s for sure.

As a smaller business you’re not gonna waste your time to organize a police report if the theft is $100 or $200 dollars. It would cost you more than what you get back. There will also be an insurance deductible so not sure if it will even w

With his skills he could have build a sled or a wheelbarrow to carry all the water - still easier than a whole motorcycle :) From the article though it didn’t sound he drove very far, so carry less than 10 days would have been possible too.

I dont know why you got downvoted. Servicing cars is very different from handling what Apple is currently selling and definitely not remotely the same. So it’s definitely a good question how or why Apple would enter the car market.

Did you try cooking with an induction stove? It’s now getting quite popular and combines the benefits of both worlds. Though it’s obviously not replacing an open flame which is usefull for cooking with a wok for example.

Higher density would mean you could live closer to work which solves some of the congestions problems. Because of the big sprawl commutes are long and it's harder to make efficient public transport. But you're right, how to go the
