That's not the case in NON recourse states, such-as California. https://www.legalmatch.com/law-library/article/what-is-a-rec...

Wouldn't the obvious fix be elimination of 1031b exchange, capital gains on all house appreciation, and only allowing 1 active federally backed mortgage at a time (with some consideration for allowing a purchase of a new place & selling the old place).

Am I the only one who redacts info, prints it out, then scans it back in? Or redacts, then takes a screenshot before sending out?

For some reason I just never trust the PDF tool (or human error on my end) actually redacting the info, even if I were to do a print to PDF.

Google/Android already scans for BLE beacons. It could add a notification for a BLE beacon it sees following users.

If the stock market and housing doesn't appreciate then inflation would harm us all. Couldn't the cost of living increase while investment vehicles stay flat caused by rising interest rates.

Is it illegal to sell your artwork at an auction, and a criminal happens to be the one to buy it? I honestly don't know.

is the onus on an artist or on an "auction house" to vet buyers. If post sale it turns out the money was fraudulent, does the artist need to pay it back?

In crypto terms. You the artist simply put a NFT up for auction at OpenSea. You the scammer happened to purchase the artwork on OpenSea. However KYC is not well enforced, enabling for money laundering between the two wallets.

If he instead started to draw NFTs, and sell it from his KYC account to his dirty wallet, could he still be convicted? What if only one out of every 100 NFTs his dirty wallet purchased was from his KYC account?

Or what if he decided to create his own crypto-currency and it just so happened that his dirty wallet was an early investor of ETH to his fund.

Seems like he could have done more to distance himself.

Zoom charges a $/user/month. Companies pre-covid had video conferencing platforms. Zoom did a lot of shifting of existing spend from business on Webex & Hangouts/Meet to its platform.

Even if Zoom's average usage per paid user goes down post-pandemic, it's revenue will remain constant and could still grow as new employees are hired and new companies switch over.

The report also shows it to have superior thrust to a traditional rotor for the same RPM.

The emerging markets *currently* do not have as large of revenue potential for advertising as the western markets.

Meta made in Q4-2020 53.56B in ad rev in the US and Canada. Meta only made 4.05B in Asia Pacific in Q4-2020.

Would the castle doctrine apply to your digital residency?

> that cloth masks have much more limited effectiveness than initially assumed

I recall multiple studies early on stating cloth masks were not effective and should be avoided if you have access to surgical or n95 masks.

My impression is that the (US) government didn't want to nuisance this discussion as it'd only open further criticism of mask mandates.

Technically, revenue decline would be a lagging indicator of poor search results and poor user experience.

But agreed.

Which makes options contracts cheaper, and it cheaper for retail to open shorts against them.

Would it? If the laser is able to focus on the rocket for multiple seconds. Then it'd just need to pack a fraction of that energy over a sustained duration. Which sounds reasonable.

I co-op'd at a major cable ISP. Was told that in certain areas they issued company owned firearms to their field employees due to past incidents. Outages caused by gunshots were actually fairly common in certain parts of America.

Government "Strength" could offer zero down no interest loans for converting SFH to triplexes and duplexes. Government "Strength" could fund large scale public commuter rail projects to cheaper, more rural areas. Government "Strength" could inject cash to build lots of housing, similar to what we did with the national highways.

There's much the federal government could do to alleviate the situation.

AWS has a product called Security Hub. There's a rule which will alert for any RDS instances open to the internet:

You can "house hack" by continually moving into the house you buy. Each time you move you need just 5% down. https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/311/topics/857256-fha-l...

There's 0 down 30 year fixed mortgages. https://liberty.financial/lending/mortgages/community-hero-1...

I get the impression history is repeating itself. Are we repeating the same events that lead up to ww2? It feels a tad too similar for comfort.

It's saddening that our government hasn't treated housing becoming un-affordable as a national risk. Somehow we can spend trillions on bailing out businesses and corporations yet we can't muster the strength to build additional housing?

Is not the rise in housing cost the single largest contributor to many of our problems?

Say you have controll of wallet A that's clean and never used, and wallet B that has 30M of dirty crypto.

You 1. mint a NFT with wallet A. Then 2. Sell the NFT to wallet B. You then deposit the proceeds into coinbase as its legitimate earnings on your NFT artwork.

If you want to get creative you can do multiple buy and sells between a collection of wallets to reduce suspicions.

...they throttle at the phone-number/SIM. Even with a VPN your phone is still auth'ing itself to the cell towers, and those towers know what device is sending which traffic.

What this prevents is allowing say Youtube to pay TMobile to never throttle their traffic.

PGE rates in Northern California are nearing 30cent/KWh. Nearly 5x your rates.

You can get framing screws that bend similar to framing nails.

As for code, yeah most cities have codes on the hight and setback of backyard sheds. This shed doesn't look like it meets either.

The web is fairly decentralized though. Google could go down and the web would still operate. Amazon could go down, and the web would still operate.

Yes there's a few centralized components still such-as DNS, but even that is heavily cached and distributed in nature.

Blockchain could aid in replacing BGP & DNS allowing for a better web. But web3 is just as centralized as our current web, if not more centralized. For example, abracadabra money get's current crypto prices from a "price oracle" which is a consortium of 16 parties who state what they feel the price should be. I wouldn't call that "Decentralized"

Furthermore, why brute-force crack crypto when you can inject code using the log4j exploit which transmits the private keys.

Sure log4j might have been recently patched, but it's not unrealistic to think that a nation-state has access to similar exploits.
