Some property, some diversified precious metals funds. I bought property at foreclosure, at about 30% of market, so I can absorb about 50% more loss in the market before I'd resell at a loss. In any case the rents I can get are going for more than mortgage and property tax. That buy is also leveraged which is nice. The diversified precious metals you can get pretty much anywhere, I'd just avoid any that have significant holdings in gold since (IMO) gold (and to a lesser extent, also silver) is way overvalued right now.
It works pretty well, I assume because the burnt carbon doesn't stick to whatever the oven walls are made of. Stuff on the sides and top tends to just peel off, and then you wipe out the bottom of the oven.
Yikes, that's crazy. Firefox starts in under two seconds for me... I wonder if you had a bad plugin. Not really fair to compare a configured firefox to a raw chrome.
Sadly, we have such enormous losses transporting the generated energy across 93 million miles that we can barely get enough power off the surface area of one house to power one house.
The shelves are stainless steel, with a melting point around 2600. You are supposed to remove them first though. I assume they'd warp or something when they stretch too much.
Concrete fails at a few thousand degrees, Steel at only a couple thousand. You don't have to get all that much hotter than a conventional oven is capable of to melt/destabilize pretty much everything. Fusion temperatures are quite a bit higher.
By sell, I mean convince people to use so that they can gather more statistics to sell to advertisers.
On the other point, it may well be that Google has given up on security as a main selling point, which would make for one substantially reduced reason to use it.
A back-channel would be pretty tough to create and not get caught. At $40k it MIGHT be worth the risk of their job to a googler (if they were pretty stupid), but at $4k it would almost certainly not be worth the risk.
On your sig: A 121K debt per taxpayer sounds like a lot until you think about paying that off over a 30-40 year working lifetime. Plus, you know that's going to be heavily reduced by inflation. 2015-2025 we're probably going to have 10-15% inflation per year, which will turn that into only 46K or less in today's dollars. Over a 40 year working life, that's like 1K extra in taxes per year. Call me when it hits 10K in extra taxes per year.
Part of my point was that Google sells Chrome as the 'secure' browser. They should put their money where their mouth is, instead of suggesting via these bounties that their browser is no better than Mozilla, which doesn't have the backing of a company with billions in profits.
They certainly should view it as a security war, security has been the primary selling point for chrome from the beginning. If they aren't the best in this department, what would make anyone want to use chrome vs any of the other browsers that are superior in so many other ways?
And their competitors are paying comparable bounties. Google staying marginally ahead in bounties does not reassure me that they will keep their position.
At 10x$400 = $4K per bug, 10*10 = 100 bugs = $400,000 in bounties. Trivial to a company with a profit margin in the 3 billion range. At 100x$400 = 40K per bug, 10*100 = 1000 bugs = $40 million in bounties. Real money, but still affordable.
Surely Google could easily afford 10 (maybe even 100) times as much, and that would undoubtedly get a lot more people interested in looking. If they want to win the security war, they should be ramping up the bounties each release.
The Rage to Master Conceptual & Mathematica Physics gets me every so often. Just last week I murdered a coworker over the notion that equilateral triangles have 3 equal angles as well. This stuff... it just gets you mad!
Dependence on the life of the creator removes the murder incentive. Instead of wanting you to die, your heirs want you to live as long as possible to reap the maximum reward from your creations.

NB: I've only actually used it once.

Redundant? Thanks for checking the posting order mods.

My conventional oven goes to (or claims to) 1200 degrees if I put it on self-clean.
Not gold, but yes, borrowed a lot to buy assets that have held a historically 'fixed' price relative to inflation.
Almost everyone could pay off a 40k credit card debt given either of two things the US government has:
1) interest rates in the <6% range.
2) the power to print money.
Finally, it's nowhere near 10k in taxes per year. You lose the argument with me when your numbers diverge into fantasyland.
RTFT.
LOL.
There will absolutely be a reckoning, and it will involve massive inflation, for which I am personally well positioned.

Yep, all evil.
IANAL, but even I know that's not how precedent works.
Yep, exactly true. This is precisely why no one ever buys Moby Dick anymore ... there just aren't any customers for it after 5 years.
And creates only a small additional incentive for the heirs to murder the creator!
