No, the way it works is they sell an offshore subsidiary their IP then their US corp pays royalties on the IP they license from the offshore subsidiary wiping out their profits in the US.
I'm not sure about "most" flights, if you cross an ocean or a continent its more like 6-hours. For a 2-hour flight driving or taking a train is usually as fast.
As others pointed out, that isn't necessarily true - it also isn't important, the company is still doing business in the country. Consider a call centre, if you get an offshore rep can they do things that would be illegal under your countries laws?
Open source hasn't been a few giant projects in the 25 years I've been programming, its always been tens of thousands of projects often written by one person and very few were vetted.
One wonders whether animals which live together socially like prairie dogs are more likely to have a simple 'language' than those which are taken at a young age to go live alone with an entirely different species....
Actually, you need permission of the site to test their security. Consider if you came home tomorrow and found someone in your living room who told you that you should get better locks.
To me Google and others are incorrectly using the TLDs to skirt local laws and it has the potential of biting them and us collectively in the ass. I don't think we'd even have this court case if Google were to follow EU law for queries coming from the EU regardless of TLD.
Even if you left off Stranger things, they still have a pretty decent number of exclusive Marvel shows that have all been pretty popular. And then they have more artistic stuff that can develop a cult following (like "The OA").
I'd say the Marvel shows cater to a niche audience. While I'm sure there are people out there that like Netflix's original content, I just don't know anyone who watches it.
That would fall under "imperfect predictions." Netflix knows very well what is a hit. Nobody knows what will be.
No one said they didn't. The point is that they are spending money on content that they don't know will pay off, which is why its misleading for Reeds to claim burning cash its in an indication of success
Netflix knows very well what people are interested in watching. They may make imperfect predictions, but they know what gets streamed.
And Hollywood has 100-years of knowing what movies people go to yet there are regularly box office bombs? The chairman of Disney had to quit after John Carter, eventually Netflix will have to have similar accountability to their shareholders.
While content may be investing in the future like R&D, its pretty misleading to say that negative cash flow is an indicator of success is misleading. Its entirely possible for them to be burning cash creating content that subscribers aren't interested in watching (and from my subjective opinion that is the case).
I suspect at some point they're going to be forced to disclose some numbers at least in aggregate to show investors that the content is popular and worth the money relative to other content.
The issue is that the holder of the loans have been passing it around like crabs in a frat house and no one knows whose faul... errr owns the loans.
Chances are the borrowers weren't informed at every step, and even if they did communication claiming to own a loan and to pay someone else now is a classic scam.
Even if Ethereum doesn't split the currency, couldn't the coins and derivatives be blacklisted in the "legitimate" sphere making them relatively worthless? They're technically stolen property so dealing with them could be illegal in many jurisdictions.
There is a certain amount of irony in bleepingcomputer writing about advertising snuck into products when their articles are continually submitted to Slashdot by anonymous users. Coincidence? Pretty unlikely.
Exactly what early warning do you think they'd provide that an outpost or automated system doesn't do better? Some guy out for a morning constitutional isn't going to spot an invasion before radar or satellites.
Communities aren't viable if there isn't an employer willing to pay a higher salary to cover the increased cost of necessities. Instead, the rest of the Canadian population is subsidizing the communities through both both the Canadian government and through their own purchases at Amazon.
Bender: Now Wireless Joe Jackson, there was a blern-hitting machine!
Leela: Exactly! He was a machine designed to hit blerns! I mean, come on, Wireless Joe was nothing but a programmable bat on wheels.
Bender: Oh, and I suppose Pitchomat 5000 was just a modified howitzer?

One version of that scheme is Double Irish with a Dutch Sandwich

I took an AI course in university and the professor would say that AI has been right around the corner for 40-years....
On the other hand Elon is what, a business guy who likes scifi?
Holographic Processing Unit
Which is more marketing bullshit.

You could make the same argument about any network request you craft.

On Newegg Canada I've even seen them discount an item but simultaneously increase the shipping cost by an amount equal to the discount.

Judging by the bulk of recent years Hollywood top hits, the rest of the world disagrees with you [the-numbers.com]
Except that hasn't translated to TV, see: Smallville, The Flash, Green Arrow, etc.

When all you have is a hammer, everything starts to look like a nail...
**** those idiots.
Also, *** websites that scroll into a different article after reaching the end of the current one.

Which doesn't requires a small number of people which we already do much further north at Alert
