Schedule C to Form 1040 (self-employment income) asks for your "Principal business or profession, including product or service". It's pretty clear that the only correct answer for some people would be something like "drug dealer".

Jeff Bezos completely owns the Washington Post - there aren't any external shareholders that could be harmed, or are owed a fiduciary duty.

Musicians want to accept credit card payments (you lose a lot of potential sales if you only take crypto), which requires a central party to handle payment processing.

The US doesn't have a centrally planned economy, so the government can't lower the prices of everything. UBI is much more feasible to implement than communism.

Overflowing addition is never UB in Rust - it is defined to wrap around in release builds (i.e. it would be a compiler bug if adding 1 to 255_u8 in a release build produced any value other than 0_u8).

The Stack Exchange API used to revoke API keys sent over HTTP (and return an error message), which is my favorite way to handle this.

It would be super expensive to use LFS to distribute this:

> Each pack costs $5 per month, and provides 50 GiB of bandwidth and 50 GiB for storage

So they would need to pay for 6 data packs (or $30) for every 300gb download.

Amazon was right to remove your review - product reviews are for reviews of the product. You never owned the product, so you can't review it.

You should have left a seller review (on the seller's Amazon page), not a product review.

I don't think amounts that are on a payment plan would qualify as "bad debt" though - if someone is paying as agreed on a payment plan the debt isn't uncollectible.

Maybe @SECGov wasn't compromised, but instead @GaryGensler was?
