NPR's Planet Money looked at a grocery store in Norway. They had a reporter sitting in the store's HQ, and they had received a secret shopper report that a particular product (can of mushrooms in water) was 0.20 Kroner less at a competitor. The reporter watched the price get updated in the chain's central database, then ran down to the store that was below the HQ and saw the shelf tag change about 9 minutes later.

That particular store has a policy of not increasing prices while the store was open, they could only lower them.

Stores will have to set good policies and follow them. Stores open 24/7 will probably have to have set times to raise prices.

The actual story is that Japan's central bank raised interest rates for the first time in 17 years, from 0% to 0.1%.

I have a Beelink SER5 running Linux Mint sitting on my desktop behind my monitor.Any noise it is making is being drowned out by other things in my office.

I haven't tried to stress it or anything just yet.

Lifehacker just pointed out that you should use the Australia AirBNB site to show the full price of places. (yes, you can have AirBNB Austrailia show the price in USD if that's what you need.) The site displays the full cost, including fees.

Just don't book it through the Austrailia site. Then you get hit with VAT.

It's Parkmobile/meterUP, and that's how it works. But if you get a not-quite technically savvy person and QR code on the meter/sign instead of entering the URL from the sign/meter, you could confuse people.

This is what the sign looks like in Philly.

I'm under the impression that 314 Action is out there to work on this effort, and had some successes in the last election.

The author of the Gizmodo article also wrote articles on a psychiatrist whose patients were appearing as "people you may know", speculating that the doctor had the phone number for the patients.

The author also wrote an article that suggests Facebook uses physical location.

The author has also put out a request for more than just speculation, and is looking for concrete evidence.

Latter.

Pacemakers are typically tested quarterly when in working order, monthly when in low battery state when the device supports transtelephonic or inductive testing. Yearly in-person checkups are also typically done. (Transtelephonic: Patient wears a device on each hand or wrist, device communicates with remote servers over a POTS system. Inductive: Patient places a device over pacemaker and initiates remote reading, device communicates over phone, cellular, network, or internet to remote servers.)

Some "remote monitoring" platforms support automatic daily to 3-week intervals and send results to the manufacturer accordingly. (Source, PDF)

Perhaps they will.

The 10 year chart is pretty damning though:

That's a lot of free money floating around.

> No evidence yet of an imminent recession

It does seem like the market will continue to inflate as long as the Fed continues to keep the interest rates at zero.

That certainly is tough on people on a fixed income or even just hoping for some return on a passbook savings account.

So he demo'd SQL Server:

But, interesting, seems like the Linux version is missing some features.

Yes. An individual can deduct the amount minus ($100 + 10% of AGI) Source: NY Times, Extortion counts as theft. IRS

Businesses get treated more favorably, they can deduct actual losses.

Sure, if you commit a crime while on welfare, out you go.

Of course I was being facetious. The easiest solution is to end welfare programs like snap. Get a job, or take a shot at some charity helping you out, and hope they do or you starve.

If the amendment is passed properly, they can't cite a now repealed amendment to throw out the new one. What you suggest would clearly not be allowed since that logic could be used to throw out any law passed. They can't rule on anything without a case before them, and the case required would only be possible after the new amendment passed.

Nice try, but thanks for playing.
