I wonder how many of those vape shops are fronts for organised crime and/or money laundering operations and how much that's related to them being happy to accept bitcoin.

If Revolut is at the end of the auth chain and they are down then Visa can't auth the tran, bunker or no.

Yes, lots of comments that seem to not really understand what A/B testing should actually be. I expect the implementation of A/B testing of video content on YT is unlikely to be done well either though so maybe it's correct criticism for incorrect reasons.

I think this is a bad analogy (or a good analogy for bad A/B testing).

I would say it's more like: imagine if your dashboard controls and icons, had occasional tweaks in size and shape that made them slightly harder/easier to use, but over time ended up with controls you found more intuitive and easier to use.

Not the parent, but I've seen it and it's hard to say, 5.5 was being stupidly proactive in monitoring a long-running process in a sub-agent to the point of chowing tokens by continually monitoring.

I queried it and was told that sub-agents can't run processes a blocking fashion, I'm not sure the harness changed, or the model was handling it differently, but it require some changes to skills to prompt around it.
