My partner and I are almost done with our dry December (the month was chosen for personal reasons). Each of us were technically overconsumers of alcohol (2 drinks a night on average) before this month. Throughout the month we’ve both gone t

Given that energy prices, which are a partial driver of inflation, are high and will certainly remain high through the end of 2022 and beginning of 2023 due to demand from cold weather and China coming back “online”, I really don’t see how

Yes. I changed my email as one does on occasion and, even after confirming with them that I changed my email, they froze my account with the requirement that I mail a copy of my SS card to their fraud dept. I immediately cancelled the card

I’ve removed snap and had absolutely no issues. My Ubuntu install now upgrades software in the same way as before snap became the default install method. This script seems comprehensive https://github.com/grobo021/snap-

It looks like you’re looking at a different chart, which is weird because they look like they’re from the same source. The tweeted pic of the chart shows -40% but the chart you linked never shows a value that low for the date mentioned.

This chart is insane. I wonder what combination of phenomena this data can be explained by?

You’re assuming that 6.22tn is all from domestically produced base materials and therefore the correct denominator component for that 18.6bn number. I cannot find what base materials imports compose that number but I bet you it adds quite a

Theoretically I think that’s possible. In a practical setting it is not since task arrival times are of a probability distribution; this means that utilization is not 100% and therefore queues do not grow to infinity. Given the author’s poi

I am using nuclear war in a literal sense, but I do see how my wording seems sensationalist given historical context.

Ok this is good to know, thanks for clarifying. While not nearly as bad as the two scenarios listed, spreading radioactive particles near a population center of civilians could be grounds to consider this a nuclear war, intentional or not.

I would argue that this is a near equivalence of nuclear war with Ukraine. A well-/mis-placed Russian artillery shell could cause a loss of reactor integrity and meltdown, no? EDIT: according to child comments, a meltdown is unlikely&#

CapitalOne offered this feature too, which I used heavily. Then they _got rid of it_. Blows my mind, it was incredibly nice.

Yeah, this article seems like a pining for ye olden days of the industrial revolution rather than a substantive assessment of current innovation. I agree with some of the opinions stated, but holistically I don't buy what the article i

It means that Gemini is not responsible for the GUSD coins you purchased, but if you have 1 GUSD coin you can exchange it for 1 USD up to the FDIC limit.

I was just going to comment with something similar, but more focused on the individual's inability to think creatively because they're just trying to survive on an increasingly inflated-away income. Poverty has a profound effect o

Given what this expose says about institutional lending not being able to account for high ROI, how is Gemini Earn[0] able to offer up to 8% on GUSD and slightly less on other coins? Gemini is audited and says all GUSD Earn backing funds ar

So the company can bring in outside execs without ousting one of the founders from a C-suite role.
