However you feel about MS, they famously didn't rig demos. I mean, it resulted in a BSOD for Gates onstage at CES, but they didn't rig them.
And, frankly, a pre-recorded demo (as opposed to a highly tested demo) is pretty deceptive. Or would you like to invest in my business. I'll show you it correctly predicting stock prices 10 minutes in advance. Of course, I recorded it yesterday...
So because a person worked hard and risked a lot, the fruits of their labor are up for theft without moral consequences
It's not retroactive. They're free to leave. But, as a rule, yes, people who worked hard, risked a lot and are successful should be taxed more. Cause, you know, they have the money. Even Bezos doesn't talk about "Amazon earnings" he talks about his "Amazon winnings"
The $10M will not affect Bezos, it will affect (and be paid for) by the shoppers and the current and future employees of Amazon.
How? There's no reason to assume that there will be any consequences on prices or wages.
Ah, I thought the CRA required a concurrent resolution, not a joint resolution (the only difference is concurrent resolutions avoid the president's desk). Damn, that was a stupid way to write the law.
As for it not being an Act of Congress yet, I wasn't talking about in it current state, I was talking about after the House gets around to it. Disjointed replies may have obscured that.
It costs a lot of money to maintain paper bills and coins.
A printing press does not use a lot of energy. Hell, even smelting metal for coins doesn't use anywhere near that much energy.
Visa averaged 6kJ each for 111.2 billion transactions in 2017. Compare that to Bitcoin, which at most favorable estimates (only 0.3% of world energy), averaged 3GJ each transaction. That's 500,000 times as expensive. VISA uses less than 0.3% of Bitcoin's nominal usage, and probably 0.1% of Bitcoin's total usage. Yet it processes many orders of magnitude more transactions.
If you want more time off, then ask your employer. But don't try to force your preferences on me.
Your preference that people should be able to work 60 hrs a week for 2X or 30 hrs a week for X is no more valid than my preference that people should not be forced to work more than 30 hrs a week. However, they are mutually exclusive, because of the race to the bottom you quoted.
How are you to pass a law against someone getting access to information that could completely legitimately be obtained by someone observing it in person
Anti-stalking laws say "Hi". You cannot follow someone around 24/7 when they are in public.
States that want to offer legal sports betting may now do so, and New Jersey plans to be first
The law that was just overturned was written in such a way so that NJ could get exempted along with Nevada (so could any other states that wanted to), they just had to fill out paperwork/legalize it before a deadline. It was obvious Atlantic City would want sports betting, so the federal law assumed NJ would make it legal. But the state legislature really fell down, and hence for 26 years it's been trying to undo that mistake.
ZTE was not publicly traded. You can trade stock off the exchange. And if you were arranging a payoff to a Trump associate, that's exactly how you would do it.
I'm not accusing anyone of that happening in this case, but I'm saying if it did, your counterargument is pretty nonsensical.
It's pretty short... it was 500 feet in October (so maybe double that now). He keeps drawing hockey stick growth curves for length (a few miles in a few months, 20 in the next year), but he also said Tesla was going to be cranking out 5k cars/week a year ago.
It may get there, but it's going to be a slower uptake than he claims.

Those franchises are in danger of making $20MM plus a year?
They may pay property taxes or sales taxes on paper clips for the office or whatever. But other than that, no.

True in Econ 101. In real life, it can be more complicated.
So they should have voted against this bill because in your judgement they're not pure-minded enough? I'll take my wins any way I can get them.
Actually, it proves that 52 of them do
This isn't a law, it's an Act of Congress (enabled by an existing law). The President has as much legal right to veto it as you or I do.
Half true. It goes to the House. It's not a law, so no POTUS involvement.
Importantly, because it's not a law, it can go to the House after the next election. Your vote matters.
Are you in the US?

Since these are often left on the street randomly, how are these different from other litter?
It's Venice Beach, California, so pretty much in LA/SF. Also, SF seems to be outlawing the scooters.

It would have been at the casinos. Where else do you expect sports betting in 1992?

Maybe time travelers went back in time and saw him performing various miracles and now Islam is recognized as objective fact?
They don't want refuges from the post-2038 hellscape.

It was an deliberate choice. Model 3 doesn't seem to be following a hockey stick. Maybe a linear growth curve.
And yes, it's late. That was kind of my point.
Citation? The article was out of date, but had a much lower number.
What does reader mode do?
