"As companies get bigger, if you can be the original Peter, absolutely that's bragging rights," said Mr. Szabo, who is chief revenue officer of mobile-entertainment network startup Mammoth Media. "It's huge."
Hey. Instead of their email address, other guys get to brag about the size of their penis. Let... Peter... have... this.
When you toss in the broker fees and backend fees many mutual funds charge, espcially the shady actively managed ones.
A wiser strategy is to use a brokerage like Vanguard or Fidelity that doesn't have those things (or doesn't require you to use them). For a simple approach, pick their index fund that matches the S&P 500, park your long-term investments (won't need for 5+ years) in it and leave it alone until you actually need the money. Any dips in the market, even severe ones, will be corrected out by the time you need to pull your funds.
Most of my retirement savings are in Vanguard index funds. No upfront or backend fees, 0.04% annual maintenance fee.
Here's some free advice:
1. Invest in index funds, and never in actively managed funds.
2. Never take financial advice from someone trying to sell you something.
My friend is a retired investment advisor and he recommends both Vanguard and Fidelity - for the reasons you mentioned - and he has some of his investments with both companies. I went with Fidelity for a (new) individual brokerage account as (a) I like their online tools better and (b) my company has their 401k program with them so it was a simple button press for me to create another account with them (as they already had my personal information).
So in short, the IPv6 transition was made way more messy that it should have been, because of fundamentally incompetent design of the new standard.
Multiple ways of expressing addresses? Lots of special little address spaces reserved for this and that thing of the present day? Both of those are complete counterproductive bullshit.
It seems that the IPv6 designers used the kitchen sink approach and tried to solve multiple (actual, potential, and far-future) problems at the same time rather than the single, simpler problem of the IPv4 address-space exhaustion and that approach made IPv6 a complex mess that's difficult to easily understand. If they had done something simpler, everyone would have switched over by now. IPv6 is another case of smart people doing dumb things - specifically, not thinking things through enough by thinking things through too much.
I'm sure she will somehow succeed in convincing someone to hand over millions of dollars, especially if venture capitalists like Tim Draper (an early Theranos investor) are still out there saying the stories by Carreyrou were wrong (they weren't), and that Holmes was on the precipice of saving the world (she wasn't) before the media came after her.
People don't like (or want) to admit were/are wrong -- themselves or about others. example
NJ Transit figured this out a while ago, all the stations have kiosks that accept cash, and even give change in bills.
Portland does this too -- at least when I visited there way back when -- but their kiosks gave change in dollar coins. Their transit system used (uses?) the honor system in that no ticket check is done to ride, but you'll get a fine if caught w/o a ticket in a random check by a patrol person.
Yes, having no Internet access is a bad deal for Virginians, but maybe the state representative should be doing something about that instead of bitching to Amtrak.
West Virginians. Don't lump us in with those hillbillies.:-)
What exactly would this do that a passport wouldn't?
Possibly verify the person entering is really the person named on the passport, and not someone using a forged or cloned passport?
Passports are actually checked against the DHS database and both include a photo so I'm not sure how an extra photo would help. The purpose if this new system is to process an image and pull up the record *before* the car gets to the checkpoint and speed up processing. (as stated in TFA)
I wonder how many people in Russia actually voluntarily chose Pravda as their source of truth and used its content in arguments in others. Not people in power, just regular people.
Well... You know their slogan: "Pravda: Overwhelmingly chosen as the source of Truth by regular people - who don't want to get shot by their Government."
But I thought that libel was something that forum sites were protected against.
FlightSimLabs said, "I would hate for lawyers to have to get involved in this," because they would probably lose a libel fight against Reddit. They would hate that.
You almost got it right. The daughter product of the nuclear reaction, Cobalt-59, is stable
According to the Wikipedia page for Nickel Isotopes (I linked to), Nickel-63 decays into Copper-63 and Nickel-59 decays into Cobolt-59. I believe the article was about the former (Nickel-63).
How do we make sure there's actually *just* beta decay going on, though?
How do we make sure there's actually *just* beta decay going on, though?
Because, according to Wikipedia (if I'm reading it correctly), Nickel-63 is a synthetic isotope and its only type of decay is beta decay and it decays into Copper-63, which is stable.

Scientists found that cells whose genomes are successfully edited by CRISPR-Cas9 have the potential to seed tumors inside a patient.
Regular cells, that haven't been edited by CRISPR, have the potential to seed tumors inside a patient -- that's how people usually get cancer.

You don't have to go to New Zealand to snowboard. The happy medium is to go somewhere more affordable to snowboard if that is your thing.
He could be living in Australia, so NZ might be the more affordable choice than, say, anywhere else in the world. :-)

Jesus tits.
Thanks for that imagery.

Even then it is doubtful it can run at 5 ghz. It also is skylake technology and a 2 year old server chip. My citation is here.
Wouldn't be the first time someone got suckered by a modified demo. My citation is here.

And abandon their long-term strategy of not doing anything or being responsible representatives (or even adults)?
Are there the remains of a red Tesla roadster scattered around the area?
Was Mars avoidance programmed into the Autopilot braking subroutines?
So I just have to wait a few hundred million years for those extra hours each day I have been wanting? Sweet.
When days are 8 hours longer than they are today, you're just going to have to put with 16hr long work days.
So I can cut back to 16h/day? Whew, can't wait!
Um... not me; just reading TFA.

Yup. Fox New actually apologized for their error on this one. Guess which POTUS hasn't?

Presumably, to speed up processing once travelers get to the checkpoint. From TFA: [bold mine]
Those images will be matched to government documents and travelers will be verified before they get to the border checkpoint, in theory.

I wasn't aware that FlightSimLabs could see into the future.
