I have no idea why this is the case, and would love some insight if anyone has it. Rails has this behaviour (which is where I spotted it) but it seems very counter-intuitive > ActiveSupport::TimeZone['Etc/GMT+12'].now Wed,

This is not true, at least in Chrome. I've tried with an object with the `toString` property set, and tried with a function with an updated prototype. In both cases, Chrome just...displays the object.

surely not if the customer _explicitly requests_ that the communications are blocked? iirc in Aus it was possible to have your provider block messages to premium rate numbers back in the days when it was popular to buy ringtones.

that's pretty much what the comment above is saying. Bootstrapped founders may take money, if they aren't told "you need rocket growth now"

There is no lowering of your rates if you have too much. It's just that the bonus interest rate only applies to the first $50k you have in your Saver accounts (cumulative). I.e. if you have $51k, you'll only get the bonus interest

This is the entire point - people see this as a strict increase in out-of-pocket costs for people. It's a reduction of subsidies, to maximise the government's ROI. Plus, you still get a tax-free (although indexed) loan. If you wan

Low cost, low quality university is often the reason why the masses of STEM grads from India haven't taken over the world (as well as a healthy touch of racism). This is in Australia, where not only do you get tax free (but indexed) lo

And then also say goodbye to any chance of European expansion, ever. That's a big risk, given the size of Europe and the fact that it the US is your current target demographic, it's not a far stretch to think Europe might be, too.

It's just become apparent to me that outstanding has two very different meanings depending on context, and this is one of the first times I've seen it used where it could be ambiguous.

Reading this makes me realise how good Australia is in this regard. We have 'BPay', which every* bank supports from within their apps, and almost all bills support. We have instant intra-bank transfers and next-day inter-bank tran

None of this is true. ING Group owns ING. And, as far as I know, ING has never had ATMs in Australia. ING has a long history of fee-free ATM withdrawals. Nothing to do with CommBank.

Commonwealth is the only big bank, is what I got from the article. ING is definitely live. Although, I've still not actually figured out how to pay . It's telling me I can receive. I just can't pay (with CommBank). Friends o

That's clearly not viable, as displayed in the linked article. One of the examples of a good use for this was 1Password reading QR codes from a browser. Additionally, how would screen capture software work?

I just don't really get why Google shouldn't be allowed to advertise on their own platform however they want. Say what you want, but there are other options for people to use to advertise if they aren't happy with Google.

Its not really siphoning money off, tho. It is an exchange of money for services rendered. From what I saw in comments and the (paywalled) article, the problem is that Google isn't siphoning money. They're keeping the ad-space f
