The recipient of a gift does not pay gift taxes. The payer does if they have not used up their lifetime exemption or unless it is belo the annual limit.

Doesn’t “cash” usually just mean no financing contingency?

Wow, I haven’t heard the name urchin in a long time. For the longest time my favorite coffee shop had an urchin sticker on their tip jar. I wonder if it’s still there.

Yes, but can you get a new Diners Club card in the US? When they last offered consumer cards it was just a co-branded MasterCard (which did have chip and pin, which was cool, but otherwise it was just a normal MasterCard)

The *.example.com cookie is the problem. A malicious subdomain under example.com will get that cookie and can use it to impersonate users.

True, but at least the dentist can tell me how much I will need to pay.

The existing health insurance industry is far from free market. Try getting a price for a procedure or visit beforehand.

Compare that to dental insurance. I’m always shocked when I get a treatment plant after 5 minutes that outlines exactly what the dentist needs to do, how much insurance will pay, and how much I will need to pay. Of course the set of possible treatments for dental work is a lot smaller, but it seems so much more straightforward.

Amosmia can be an early sign of Parkinson’s disease, and people who lose their sense of smell can suffer from depression and weight loss. It can also happen after head trauma.

In thinking about it, noticeable changes in any sense probably warrants a trip to the doctor.

My email is in my profile if you want to talk more.

Go to a doctor. I have congenital anosmia, and all the research I've done says that losing your sense of smell is serious. There are some things that may help, but they are more effective the sooner you do them.

If you are in the bay area there is a doctor at Stanford who actively researching in this field:

Unemployment insurance, family/medical leave, workers comp, and health insurance are all different by state. That can be a lot of overhead for the first employee in a new state, but then the second is trivial.

Unemployment insurance (and family/medical leave), workers compensation, and health insurance are the biggest issues. Adding a new state for one employee can be a lot of overhead.

Do you have a link?

Diffraction and airy disks have an impact as mentioned by a sibling comment, but the simplest explanation I've used is that ultimately you're capturing photons, and if you have a larger sensor you can capture more photons. More photons are better. Of course you need a larger lens with a longer focal length to match the same field of view, but that's the basic idea.

Putting individual stickers on items is more expensive than you’d think. And most box manufacturers are set up for printing lots of the identical box - changing those lines would be hard.

Yes, I am being sarcastic. There may be a benefit to customers but your products will have calls to action on them to download and install an Amazon app on your phone when you’re in a retailer like Target or Best Buy. I think that’s the real reason for the transparency program.

Once an asin is marked as being part of transparency they will reject it after a sell through period for any existing inventory.

Yes, and amazon gets to put a sticker on every item you sell (or at least the SKUs you enroll in transparency) no matter what channel you sell it in. I can’t imagine why vendors might not want to do that if they want to sell anyplace other than Amazon.

Maybe - but he finally figured out how to write an ending.

Not if you can get 3% cashback on a transaction while paying a 2.5% fee.

Does living in the Santa Cruz Mountains count? I have a couple acres, lots of redwoods, and can’t see my neighbors. And I’m 35 minutes from Mountain View if there’s no traffic.

Shopify or something like that unless you have very specific requirements. And if you’re asking in HN you don’t have very specific requirements.

I'm waiting for the first time a GDPR DSAR deletion/retrieval portal is breached. Mass exfiltration or mass deletion are both great attack vectors.

I would be careful relying on legal advice from a lawyer who is not your lawyer.

The blog post references a secondary source in Dutch. I’d be careful before relying on that for legal advice.

Can you provide a reference in the text of GDPR itself or an official government source such as the UK ICO that supports that criterion for determining if a company needs to comply with GDPR?

Your description does not match with what I have seen about GDPR applying to European data subjects which is the language the regulation uses.

Here's a counter-example. We accidentally fed formula with cow milk protein in the middle of the night once after switching to a different formula (it was the middle of the night, we were sleep deprived, the bottles looked the same in the dark, and we hadn't purged all the old formula yet). His symptoms returned immediately for a couple days until it cleared his system.

I know this is anecdata but seeing the immediate change and having a very easy experiment to test it with if the child is eating formula makes me question the study.

There's a theory that almost all colic is either cow milk protein allergy and/or reflux. Our baby has both and treating both has made a huge difference in how happy he is.

We had to switch to a hydrolyzed formula do to supply issues buy mom is avoiding dairy as well which is helping a lot.

There's a bit of advocacy at Fed is Best:

https://fedisbest.org/

Of course, some people see that as an anti-breastfeeding movement.

The rhetoric around breastfeeding is insane. Trying to do legitimate research online about it is almost impossible.

My least favorite part of breastfeeding advocacy is when people say it's free. Yes, it's free, as long as you ignore the extra time it takes for the mother that can't be shared with other caregivers (unless you pump, which takes more time), extra food you have to eat, the pump and various accessories, and the time spent cleaning all the little pump parts. Yeah, other than that it's free.

Functional for GDPR does not take into account revenue from my understanding. You’d need a fallback ad solution that doesn’t rely on cookie targeting for users who don’t opt in.

Isn’t GDPR fun?

Or have a documented retention policy for backups and a procedure to redelete data when those backups are restored.
