Yes, but they asked even if you were paying with a credit card! I guess it was "separate systems."
Why does docusign need such sophisticated and powerful AI models, to the point that they’re willing to risk their customers’ ire by training on their data (yes I know, even though it’s anonymized per “industry best…
I had a teacher who promulgated the same technique for what we called Calc III (similar to a proofs class, I imagine; Spiwak was the text). It was very effective.
> Rite Aid is currently going through bankruptcy proceedings and the order will go into effect after approval from the bankruptcy court and the federal district court… Talk about kicking someone while they’re down.
> The same Latin root is found in more familiar words such as acceleration and even celebrity, a word used when fame comes quickly. According to the OED, celebrity comes from the Latin “celebritās, [the] state of being…
As far as I can tell, the entire premise of this article is based on a model, not any empirical measurement of Manhattan actually sinking. The article then tries to distract us from examining its thin thesis too…
I think neither a 40-billionaire nor Harvard would risk legal trouble by pulling off such an easily auditable maneuver.
The whole value proposition of a contractor is that you can onboard them quickly when you need to augment your existing staff, and can terminate them just as fast when they’re no longer needed. This is in no way a…
Haha right! Or that some ne’er-do-well tricks or coerces you into revealing your treasure’s location.
SBF’s plea deal can’t be far behind. He is uniquely positioned to help FTX’s receivers recover the maximum amount of money, and will use that leverage to strike the best deal possible. The whole FTX crew will likely pay…
Interesting point! What may be an effective management style for running a company you own could be deleterious when running a country for which you are an elected official.
What I love most is that the new CEO of Twitter is front and center making a major product and pricing announcement to the entire customer base within 4 days of buying the company. That’s awesome execution, baby! Not to…
He didn’t cause the collapse, but he failed to deliver on his promise to his customers that Celsius was structured to protect their savings from market volatility. In fact, the promise was fake — it was never possible…
Celsius seemed to be a classic Ponzi scheme wrapped in a cloak of crypto. The founder was a smooth-talking pitch man who claimed to have “discovered” a risk-free way to earn outsized returns by arbitraging some flaw in…
Not as much fun to build and deploy, but equally effective is pigeon-repellent adhesive. It prevents the birds from landing on treated surfaces and is not too unsightly.…
The US and other government wills outlaw all cryptocurrencies but the ones that they control (“Govcoin,” as The Economist refers to them). Game over.
The reason that cyberattacks are proliferating is because it has only recently become easy for the threat actors to receive massive payments quickly and anonymously. Remove that ability and the entire cyberattack…
Exactly this. The single most important question with a shootout is “Who fired the first shot?” The Times clearly misleads the reader to think the police fired first after a “brief confrontation,” only later to reveal…
> Hospitals in the USA marking stuff up 500 or 1000% ARE harming society already. Agreed, that needs to be fixed. > If all shoe companies charged $400 for a $2 shoe, I believe society would be harmed, yes. A competitor…
Or selling software with 0 marginal cost for $40k? :-) As with all moral issues, it is difficult to come up with an objective distinction between wrong and right. I tend to rely on Kant’s categorical imperative: Would…
Come on, guys. Hoarding a commodity in order to corner a market and thereby profiteer is immoral, (often) illegal, and a distortion of the free market. It’s bad behavior. Please stop.
It seems like the majority of the commenters here are missing the point. The increasing rate of student loan default is not a result of kids who go to a four year college, graduate with an unmarketable degree in…
Let me make sure I understand: If I take gigabytes of “enriched” personal information and make it available to the public for free, then I’m an irresponsible, idiotic, incompetent buffoon. But if I put a paywall in…
Same here, though the DMC car looked futuristic for its time. This is simply hideous, a meme of itself. Any idea what the curb weight is?
It strikes me that these “woke” students and faculty who value victimization over free speech are simply lazy. It takes far less effort to justify a position with dogma than with an intelligent, nuanced argument.
