There are government subsidies for consumers to either have a fixed price or a price cap on electricity in Norway as a political response to the increase. This would be harder to pull off if not most of the profits from export didn’t land in the public sector (either taxes or government owned energy companies).
I’m not sure about the US, but their European service is very transparent on pricing (they offer two different products between the two markets). Some edge cases are generally hard to cover though, especially for unauthenticated users browsing: young driver fees and increased insurance premiums if you’d like a lower deductible.

Norway has a fiscal deficit every year, in order to cover the deficit we're allowed to spend a couple percent of our holdings in the Oil Fund to. To my understanding, this is done by selling assets on a monthly basis in exchange for Norwegian currency by Norges Bank. [0]
One could argue that the government would not be able to offer subsidies on EVs without that option.
I believe the "We need contacts permission" message is key here. The message should include the purpose for what the contact data will be used for when asking for consent.
> Specific – consent must relate to specific actions relating to the data rather than for any purpose the business wants it. For example, if the data is for a newsletter subscription, it must say exactly that.
I use Spectacle for window management on a 49" ultrawide and it works great for dividing the screen into 3 segments. Having one window centered helps avoiding too much horizontal movement of my neck as well (which I've been recommended to avoid by a physiotherapist).
No, it doesn’t. We just built a merchant app for the App Store where merchants of our platform should be able to handle and process orders made on our website from customers.
Apple refused to approve the app unless we added a storefront to our app and used in-app purchases. But that’s not something we consider a core feature of the app.
I've started collecting these myself and I try to summarize them every month. I encourage everyone to do the same, it's a great way to build a reference of stuff you learn that you can and reviewing them monthly makes it stick.
They wouldn't need to pay taxes because the money to purchase the financial instrument (whether it's a stock or a cryptocurrency) should already have been taxed in the country where the buyer resides. And, at least in my country, you can't use a financial trade like that to get a tax deduction.
How would they afford to buy the cryptocurrency from the shell company in the first place?
Apple seems to be somewhat unhappy with nvidia. I think AMD might have ML stuff in their roadmap and Apple is making a bet they will make it before they fix their relationship with nvidia.
This goes both ways, so we should avoid completely black text. I might be wrong, but scrolling on HN on iPhone X seems to produce some weird effect as well.
