"not being able" is just another way of saying "stranded" again. Please read up on the details of this adventure and you'll come to realize that whoever is putting this phrasing into the media is trying to lie to yo

How can you possibly say it has no fundamentals? Here are some use cases that give it a non-zero value: It competes with Western Union for money transfers. It provides ways to transfer money to places and for things the US government doesn&

A lot more people would be interested in bidding for a domain name than for a company that owns a domain name. The domain name should be auctioned off separately but the bankruptcy court is more interested in completing the task in the easi

I've noticed that sometimes Google Flights finds a cheaper international fare if using the airlines site in the local currency instead of USD. Clicking the button at the end in Google Flights takes care of all the settings to get you t

What does it mean to have cryptocurrency on the spacecraft, physically ? Sounds like a marketing falsehood to me. I can't imagine what a statement like, "there was 1 bitcoin on board the spacecraft" would mean. It is nonsens

If employees are purposefully isolated from the company's expenses, they'll waste money left and right. Also, they don't care since any incremental savings aren't shared with the employees. Misaligned incentives. In that

The interesting question is how did you arrive at this site layout where the pricing is hidden in the sign up page when every single SaaS site on the internet has a pricing link in the header and in the footer. Genuinely curious.

I wasn't asking for an explanation. Just pointing out it feels wrong. Same way, it would feel wrong to have copyright protection and have it go away if the item is sold to someone else.

You're trading the copyright itself. But you're proposal would ban that.

You talk about moral but I don't see in your proposal what's moral about not allowing two entities to trade things fair and square. To see what I mean, it rubs me the wrong way when I buy a used car and lose the warranty by doing

Step 1: make sure it's not on the New York Times bestseller list. That list is quite manipulated. Makes for fascinating reading to see the dynamics of it explained.

There are two processes at play: - refuse the updated terms of service - refuse the arbitration The previous version of the TOS had arbitration too, so I'm not sure what all the stink is about. Both versions tell you that you have 30 d

A big desk. A bunch deeper and longer than the bare minimum. And L-shaped so that I can rest my hand on it. Having an external monitor behind my laptop screen allows me to change the focal distance of my eyes back and forth, so that's

I didn't read it well, I guess. "Protecting people's public image" sounds much broader than whether an arrest or conviction is public record.

The article's point doesn't seem right. It's measuring a random quantity in the bigger picture. Retention percent doesn't matter as much as number of users retained, which leads to total revenue. But then you have to fac
