Why are you adding the $33 to the $60? Normally, the rates that utilities charge include the costs of capital (loan/bond payback and interest) in addition to the cost of the service. IOW, the $60 rate should already include the $33 bond payback (+ interest). Is there evidence this is not the case here?

This is the argument Square made (that their policy "applies not to people, but to transactions"), but it's worth noting that their policy in fact does not say "bankruptcy services," it literally says "bankruptcy attorneys." (see the link in the summary)

Most of the rest of the list is about actual "goods and services." The wording for that one item would be easy to fix to be like the rest if they wanted to.

This is one area where Google's search algorithm falls down [...] I wish there was the option for a decay (or timeout) function into their page-rank algorithms to reward contemporary information.

Look to the left of the search results. See the "Search Options" thing? Open that and you can restrict results by date range (and a number of other things).

I never noticed those options until someone pointed them out to me recently. I guess if you've been using something simple for a decade, at some point you stop looking for new things about it. But now I'm amazed all over again. For example, do a timeline search on Google for "New Orleans" and see the peaks around the Civil War and War of 1812, then click and read historical articles from those periods in the NYT.

Tying this back to the original article, I personally think it's awesome that the Internet appears to "remember" stuff from before it was built. Getting articles from 1861 in your search results is just trippy, so hats off to Google and the Times.

I have personally seen truck drivers, park, get out of their vehicle, and verbally warn otherwise perfectly rational adults to move out of the way because they have gotten so acclimated to the reverse beep that they tune it out completely.
