this site has unfortunately become a Reddit-like echo chamber

It would be pretty bad if it didn't activate immediately. This actually gives me more confidence in iOS. Any time the camera is accessed, even if for one frame, the light turns on and stays on even after you're done.

No this is irrelevant -- he's just turning on the selfie camera by briefly swiping sideways. It's completely harmless.

You accidentally briefly swipe left while unlocking, causing it to flash the camera, which causes the camera indicator to stay on for a while. You can reproduce it by locking your phone, touching the screen once, then swiping a centimeter left then back.

I also have to do this kind of work (with financial data), and actually built a product to make it easy. It's currently in closed beta but please send me an email (listed in my profile) if this is truly a frequent pain for you and you'd like to try it out.

No it doesn't. It works because of insulin regulation.

> will be elected

An election is not a coup just because you disagree with the elected peoples' views.

Yes, so they take risk, and they should get a return. You will get your money no matter what, so your return is close to nothing. There's no greed or deception here – it's just market forces. If you want a higher return, buy a bond like the bank.

Get ready for the "calories in calories out" people to come after you. Intermittent fasting also helped me lose around 15 pounds but in around half the time with a 20 hour fasting window.

Money doesn't automatically grow – you need to take risk to get a return. Your checking account takes no risk, so your bank shouldn't really pay much for you to keep your money in your account.

It's more about convention. Typically, PUT overwrites data, whereas POST adds data. If you PUT to /users/3 you overwrite a user, whereas if you POST to /users you add a user.

React made me 10 times faster, and I'm not exaggerating.

> cool kids on r/Bitcoin

I don't use Reddit or any other social networks. This is the only site I post anything on. My suggestion to put a trade on instead of just saying stupid things on the Internet comes from institutional trading culture.

Anyone can say anything. Almost nobody backs it up with money.

If you really believe it doesn't have "any value at all" then I invite you to sell it short. That's a free $30,000. The nice thing about markets is that you can express your opinion, and that market opinions without corresponding positions can be ignored.

Beyond a certain level, salary doesn't matter. There's a base salary and there's upside, so if you create something profitable, you'll get paid significantly more. In finance, bonuses are many multiples of your salary, dependent on your performance. It's similar in tech, where the RSUs are how you make your money.

You can't post bonuses/equity, since it really depends on your performance.

Your post assumes that you're doing some task, but with most of the jobs people on this site go for, you're paid to be creative and commercial and not to just perform some job.
