Splitting assets between banks doesn’t change the insurance income collected by FDIC, and nor does it change the overall risk profile for FDIC - its artificial structuring behaviour. It’s a minimum, not a cap.

GBTC is it's own weird separate thing, with a whole bunch of red flags. It's not yet an ETF. They don't even distribute the fund prospectus online, it's only available by email request. Tracking for actual BTC futures ET

Bitcoin futures ETF's are already allowed - several exist and they track the BTC:USD rate relatively accurately. I'm not sure that a spot price ETF is really a huge breakthrough in terms of actual mechanics. But approval is an opp

RF is harmless below the point where it directly heats tissue. Having a full strength cell tower transmitter inside your home is not safe due to the intensity of the transmission, it will directly heat tissue inside your body.

This would show the effect you want. Code like tests are likely to be very verbose, while often the actual vulnerability will come down to a handful of characters.

Delivering files is the easy part, integrating with the language tooling/buildsystem is the hard bit. Seemingly simple concepts like a dependency don’t translate neatly across languages.

I guess I still don't understand... how much customer service do you need to run a savings account? How do you even screw that up? Operating a savings account like this one should be close to just picking money off the free money tree.

Unity are spending too much money to develop far too little. New engine features are almost universally half baked (DOTS, UI mess). They acquire in demand features from the community just to let them wither (pro builder). The only thing tha
