It's been a while since I've tried to change money but even as recently as 10 years ago, money changers in a lot of places wouldn't accept even slightly wrinkled bills or bills old…

It’s also excellent for people that take buses. Source: me

I'll give you a couple of examples I've been involved with: 1. I was applying for a job at Company A and I had a former co-worker working there. I think it was down to me and 2 oth…

I had a similar issue where they claimed I didn’t pay one year. Calling led nowhere but my CPA friend said send them a letter. As in a physical snail mail dispute letter. I could b…

I remember taking the EWR-SIN flight back in the 2000s in both premium economy and business class. The first time was an experience - such a long flight. Previously I'd have to con…

For most, none. For power users, you can force specific fare classes/connections/combinations etc. regular sites won't. You can create some zany things for example, getting United …

If you were MSFT or AAPL, you could issue 0%(or close to it) bonds and investors would lap it up. IIRC AAPL did issue a 0% bond at some point in the last few years.

Nope. Green card requires PERM which I think is a bit more extensive than the H1B process.

Green card job postings do this because it is a requirement to advertise the opening. So you tailor the job description specifically for the person you already employ on a immigran…

I have had pretty good experience with their API support. Generally, if we include our sales rep they will hunt down the right team to get our questions answered if we get the runa…

AFAIK that's pretty much 100% against the license agreement. Data pulled from the terminal is only supposed to be shared with other BBG subscribers. They have more expensive offeri…

I feel you. I’m about to board a flight and Spotify logged me out while I was listening to an offline playlist.

It depends on where you're going to/from and at what time. During rush hour, yeah the subway is faster than taking a cab for my pre-Covid 35 or so block commute. There are some rou…

Ccan you trade futures on RH yet? Why would they allow options on futures if they don't allow futures trades

I brought down the order management system at a large bank during the middle of the trading day. The backup kicked in after about a minute but it was not fun on the trading floor.

> Make sure your hospital, clinics, doctors, accept your insurance I understand what they're saying but no one plans to get sick (pregnancies aside). Cheaper plans within the same …

One of the perks of my employer paying ~$3k a month for my Bloomberg subscription as well. That and the other few times a month I need to check some data.

That’s a totally different scenario - international travel requires a valid travel document. For domestic flights you don’t technically need an id but be prepared to wait a long ti…

Not everything needs to be B2C. There are a ton of problems to solve for B2B - for example reconciling buy side transactions to the street. In this space though usually a bank/fund…

Sure you can. You just need a broker that lets you. Interactive Brokers for example.

Not anymore. The CFTC now has limits on how much of the total market one institution can own.

> And when was the last time you needed to charge it and listen to music at the same time? On planes - although I guess it will be a while before I go on a flight again.

Nope. Small private school. I think as I was graduating they started operating some dorms full time.

Ah, missed that. I'm glad for them.

As a former international student, even regular breaks when school would close the dorms were tough. Winter/Spring break especially. Back then there was no AirBnb and no one would …
