'Nuff said.
"Revolut employs 40-50 compliance analysts in London and Krakow, Poland, and has about 80 software engineers in Russia."

“...one of his clients was 401 North Wabash Venture, LLC, the Trump International Hotel & Tower. Burke began representing Trump’s 92-story condo and hotel in 2006 and over the past decade he has saved (Trump) $14.1M in property taxes.” politico.com/magazine/story…
“When Burke’s tax objections were denied, he took Trump’s case to court. Burke’s firm filed six lawsuits against the Cook County treasurer, alleging that the Trump Tower’s assessment “is not based upon the fair market value of the property and is excessive, and is illegal...”
“In fact, Burke’s most recent suit was filed on May 31, 2017, four months after Trump was sworn in as president. So far, one suit has been dismissed, while the rest are still pending in Cook County Circuit Court.”

Today I'm thinking about American illustrator James Bingham and how @LINEWebtoon artists in particular might benefit from examining his compositions. His staging is energetic and his drapery is *chef's kiss*, but what it really comes down to is his use of vertical space. Thread:
The main limitation of the Webtoon format is the fixed horizontal space. Webtoons can scroll forever, but they're only ever as wide as your phone. I learned early on that landscape shots blip by in this format, because they're only ever as wide as, say, a panel from Watchmen.
But this is also part of what makes the format so great -- endless vertical space makes for tall, vertiginous panning shots whenever you want, an experience that's genuinely more "cinematic" than a print comic, because you're only ever looking at one thing at a time --

1/ The most important news in the "cryptocurrency space" today is the gigantic IPO that @BITMAINtech intends to complete this year.

But even more astonishing is one of the details buried in their IPO filing. Let's consider the implications:
2/ It's now clear that Bitmain entered one of the worst trades of 2017 by converting a majority of their mined #Bitcoin to BCash tokens to prop up the price of that alt-coin:

3/ For those who don't remember, this was the consequence of Bitmain's attempt to alter the Bitcoin block size with the failed 2X fork in August 2017.

After the failure of 2X, @JihanWu pursued a policy of creating a miner-controlled alternative to Bitcoin: BCash.

Funny thing happened yesterday. @AjitPaiFCC attacked me for using my voice to speak out against his plan to kill #NetNeutrality and the internet as we know it. THREAD
He also attacked Twitter, Cher, and Mark Ruffalo. Not an educated attack blasting our perspective with real facts but…a misogynistic, personal attack complete with a Tony Danza reference. (I love you, Tony!)
cnet.com/news/fcc-chair…
I’m not going to personally attack @AjitPaiFCC in return. I’m just going to stick to real facts because the facts are on my side. Ready for some real facts about #NetNeutrality?
