Almost certainly money laundering.

Transparent Systems is evolving financial infrastructure - building real-time settlement solutions using distributed, cryptographic systems. We just had a major milestone where we did something that hadn't happened since 1863.

We are looking for awesome people to join us. We’re a Rust shop, in Seattle, of 20+ collaborative, fun, smart people looking to make a huge impact doing something that truly hasn’t been done before. Currently, we are hiring for principal backend engineers with a good amount of Rust or functional experience, security engineers, an IT System Admin, and a product manager with experience in financial products.

One legal (AFAIK) method: The company had low/no valuation, and it was private. Those shares were sold to the employees (likely of the vehicle containing the company) at the stated valuation. Once they went public, there was a valuation event. Roughly, they snuck through the 409a before it had to be reported.

Much of this sounds like being in an organization where engineering is seen (or is) a cost center, not a profit engine.

There's definitely a tendency to stasis in organizations - if the benefit of new software doesn't outweigh the loss of older, working software, there's no way anyone would want to encourage new software to be made.

Almost certainly regulations. There's a cafe/dispensary combination in Redmond, but all of the various parts are separated.

Sadly, many combo decks that are perfectly viable run up against the clock in Arena. If only there was loop detection to allow for "do this X times", it'd be far better.

Five years, $6M a year, 60,000 sq feet (roughly 150-300 employees, depending on how it is organized). You lock a lease and you're on the hook.

Well, some automakers are trying at least: https://www.gov.ca.gov/2019/07/25/california-and-major-autom...

The moralizing about people's inability to keep plants alive seems strange to me - do they not deserve plants?

Nothing prevents them from building PayPal, except the regulatory regime they don't want to ascribe to. Also, the currency conversion to their own units and back relates to the taxability of said currency and the inability to use WoW gold to buy Starbucks. It is a matter of degrees - Facebook could seriously destabilize monetary policy for certain countries and subvert currency controls.

Tether Limited does not, per the NYAG investigation and Tether's executives' own admissions.

Here's some of Google's positioning on it - think of it as an arms race: https://www.thinkwithgoogle.com/marketing-resources/micro-mo...

Minors cannot consent because they, in general, have a mental deficiency called "being young". They also, in general, are in the lowest power position of any potential relationship.

It isn't that minors are non-beings - it is that they're not fully developed yet, so they need protections. Where we draw that line is up to the law and culture of any location, but it exists.

CWU's "whegs" are much in this vein: http://biorobots.case.edu/projects/whegs/

"not guaranteed that the situation is better elsewhere" - almost certainly it couldn't be worse.

Labs change focus all the time, even without describing it to the world. Why else would they have bumped your research?

As someone who had a less than ideal PhD experience, while exiting ABD feels like a failure in the near term, the long term impact is very low, unless you're desperate to remain in academia.

In short, you don't have to take the abuse - I'd look to change major professors.

Why do you hate it? I've found that we all fall along a continuum of "work is life" and "work is what I do to live" - if you're at an edge of that, it isn't inherently bad.

We're a happy Brex customer, but we'll definitely run the numbers. I think it really depends on what kind of startup you are.

An in-between is Warby Parker - I like being able to try on the glasses in store (or shipped to door). Roughly $100-$150.

Zelle is owned by Early Warning Systems, a wholely owned subsidiary of the top 7 banks in the US. The Clearing House is a joint venture by the top 25 banks in the US.

Clearexchange was purchased by EWS a few years ago.

Zelle is roughly real time.

It is owned by the same company doing RTP.

Please do.

If the media published that the FBI was highly effective and stopped a terrorist before they could do anything useful? Why is that inspiring?

I wish we could get some numbers on this, as I've lived in the same spread of places as you and I agree with the GP. I'd be happy to be proven wrong.

The sustainable rural community is exceedingly rare - most are propped up by ag subsidies and state aid. For much of the central part of America, there's no housing benefit or tourism to speak of, just resources (corn/soy in general, maybe livestock).
