Re:Binance freezes withdrawals of stablecoin USDC as investors pull $2B

Let me add:
Only BUSD on Ethereum (ERC-20) is issued by Paxos. The BUSD on the BNB Chain (BEP-20) is not affiliated with Paxos and not regulated by NYDFS. Quoting Paxos:
"BUSD is issued by Paxos on the Ethereum blockchain and regulated by the New York Department of Financial Services. Separately, Binance wraps BUSD and issues separate tokens (known as Binance-Peg BUSD) on several blockchains, including BNB Smart Chain, Polygon, and Avalanche. These tokens are unaffiliated with Paxos and not regulated by the NYDFS."
Re:The Ordinary License Plate’s Days May Be Numbered
on Saturday July 28, 2018 @02:58AM (#17631982)
This sort of submarine article for Reviver Auto has come up often in the past couple of months, but does anyone see a market for a $700 license plate with a yearly subscription model, which also requires you to carry a backup non-digital license plate? What's the benefit to the driver?
Also the title, Ordinary License Plate's Days May be Numbered seems inconsistent with No more than half a percent of the registered vehicles in the state, about 170,000, will be allowed to use a digital rear plate ... and the driver must carry a regular rear plate in the vehicle in case the digital version malfunctions

The HAVING clause is evaluated before the SELECT so you have to specify the full clause `having sum(weight) > 12` and not just the alias. Most SQL engines are probably smart enough to not actually recalculate everything.

There is a way to interact with the network latyer even when using WKWebView. Since iOS9 there are the Network Extension APIs which allow you to access (and modify/filter) raw packet data.

Re:How the iPhone mail app decides when to show you new mail
on Monday January 24, 2011 @10:52PM (#2137913)
1. I'm not in MobileMail.app, get a notification that an email arrives, but when I enter the app, nothing is there. When I manually hit the refresh mail button, the new message downloads and appears.
Your iPhone is connected to a push server; the server sends your phone a few bytes that indicate a new message is available to be downloaded, but it does not begin downloading the message itself until you enter MobileMail.app. (Messages.app is different since your carrier pushes messages in their entirety).

Re:Tablet Musings
on Thursday January 07, 2010 @02:07PM (#1037767)
the original reason behind the closed architecture of the iPhone was to keep the device secure on cell networks
That's probably true for the iPhone, but it doesn't explain the closed nature of the iPod Touch. The two devices share the same core OS, but it wouldn't be difficult to let iPod Touch users download apps outside of the app store. So if its not about protecting the cellular networks, and it's not a technological barrier, what's left? I guess you could argue it's about control or about enforcing a consistent (and "safe") user experience. I'm hoping they don't apply the same thinking to the Tablet.

What else does Google Voice have that Vonage doesn't?
In addition to the rule-based filtering that you mentioned, surprisingly decent (and searchable) automatic voicemail transcription and the ability to send/receive SMS to/from the Google Voice number. And, with the exception of outbound calling, it's all free.

The 600,000 figure is probably just the number of times the SDK was downloaded (if the figure is at all legitimate; someone could have just made it up).
