I WFH once a week and as-needed. Starting Monday we are all WFH for 2-3 weeks. For productivity, I absolutely require either a docking station or some sort of KVM switch setup so I…

I can see it. If you are healthy and you know that for most people the virus is mild and the mortality rate is roughly on par with the flu (they previously had it higher but the la…

I think the solution I use personally would also serve your purpose. I use KeeWeb (app.keeweb.info). It's a web app that caches in your browser and only runs locally. It also has a…

That's somewhat correct. But it wasn't that they didn't allow those people to sell. In the film they were dealing with specialty derivative products that weren't traded by your ave…

This isn't quite true. I get what you're saying, but from a technical perspective, it's not accurate. The markets also go up based on the total money supply in the system. If the g…

Time-based options have a fixed cost which you pay up front. So again, there is no risk of insolvency because you've already paid up front and capped your losses.

Pelican Cove is being built as we speak.

They're only good because they were repeatedly given an infinite amount of money for 2 decades by investors while their retail operations lost money so that they could nail the imp…

Whatever happened to the RFID concept where they (not Amazon, but others) previously envisioned attaching small, cheap RFID badges to all items and then you would just do one big, …

OP said nothing about timing the market. As you mentioned, that's the entire opposite of DCA. I take your interpretation to be a bit disingenuous and lacking in good faith. OPs poi…

At the risk of sounding less than helpful or pessimistic, the first thing that jumped out at me when reading your post is that you are going about this backwards. I'm not saying yo…

Fair enough, but the screenshot that one client posted definitely shows their links generating dates for 3/3 on 3/2. That's highly suspicious in of itself. Also, the fact that thei…

I might believe the response from RH if 1) this didn't happen exactly 4 years ago 2) admission of this being the issue didn't expose them to a negligence lawsuit which could easily…

I notice that the status.robinhood.com page has changed as well. Yesterday there was a note about the source of the issue being identified. That is now gone.

"In his letter to Carney, dated Feb. 28, Hohn warned that British banks were “highly likely” to suffer losses on coal financing as the cost of renewables continued to fall and regu…

My limited understanding is that if you have a license to be a broker in this nature, you have to meet certain requirements. Similar to getting a bank charter - banks have to be op…

I imagine it's because these are almost always public companies that need to show earnings growth. They are always trying to improve margins and their stock price. That's much easi…

Not sure what the specifics of the accident were, but car seats are rarely damaged unless the accident is major, which may very easily total the car. If the car wasn't totaled, whi…

I get what they're saying. Walmart is literally known by every single person in the country (and outside the country as well). It's much less effective to bitch about getting rippe…

I struggle with this all the time. The only thing that I have found to mitigate it is contemplating the public embarrassment of the resulting failure or lack of completion. This me…

I don't believe that's accurate. I've heard first hand from lawyers that the bill of rights guarantees protections from government action, not other citizens or entities like corpo…

Haha yep. It's lovely when the filer of the lawsuit raises a great point on how to throw out their case and further citizen protection, isn't it?

A lot of the comments on this topic seem to be focusing on SO's nature or something like what you proposed about .NET itself. When I first read the Twitter thread I was sort of dum…

See my other comment(s) in this thread. I have acknowledged that was not in fact true after checking further once called out on it.
