The answer depends on the country. In the US, review the Bank Secrecy Act and anti-money laundering (AML) regulations. In Canada, there is the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (PCMLTFA) regulations and also the CRA requiring the individuals and businesses retain their records for up to six years.
if there’s some sort of way around this either with a lawyer or federal form or something.
Very unlikely.

In terms of physiology, the color is stimulated in the brain when the eye reports input from short wave blue cone cells along with a sub-sensitivity of the long wave cones which respond secondarily to that same deep blue color, but with little or no input from the middle wave cones. The brain interprets that combination as some hue of magenta or purple, depending on the relative strengths of the cone responses.
In other words, our brains are like "🤷♂️, here's a thing"

> Berríos will start for the Blue Jays on Opening Day, and Eflin will take the mound for the Rays as they host Toronto at 4:10 p.m. ET on March 28 at Tropicana Field. It will be the fourth Opening Day start for Berríos and the first for Eflin. March 28th, I'm pumped, are you pumped?

Without any legal penalties.
But doing so, would surely risk intels reputation and future contracts with the government. The government could also impose other restriction or penalties on intel for non compliance.
But like you say, if intel does come up short, likely nothing will happen (unless some form of negligence is discovered)

If you cant find anything in your area, I would also suggest looking for online lessons. You can find coaches on chess.com and lichess.org with different price points and there are no obligations to continue with the same coach if you find them to not be up to your standards.

Ok, now I'm confused, the article you linked says:
- Federal government was justified in using the Emergencies Act
But in this (OP) article, it says:
Federal Court Judge Richard Mosley ruled it was unreasonable for the federal government to use the Emergencies Act to quell the protests.
And then this article says:
Ottawa has filed to appeal a Federal Court decision that found its invocation of the Emergencies Act in response to the 2022 Freedom Convoy protests was unjustified.
Anyone out there want to loop me in?

why is it 30 seconds instead of 60 seconds? I’m pretty sure every other TOTP I’ve seen is 60 seconds. My jaded take: the blind pursuit of “better security” even though… what does this even imply? Someone has 30 fewer seconds to read the code over your shoulder and log in on their device?
30 seconds is the default for TOTP implementations.
I’m curious to know what CRA does, but I’m away from my PC right now.

Unpopular opinion? More like controversial opinion amiright? At the time of my comment, almost as many people agree with you (downvotes), as disagree with you (upvotes).
All I can say on the subject is that if you choose to speak about your views, you should do it with respect to others. You wont change anyones view point by shitting on their beliefs, athiest or otherwise.

command! -range -nargs=1 PadColumns call PadColumns(<line1>, <line2>, <args>)
function! PadColumns(start, end, columns)
execute a:start.','.a:end.'s/\(.*\)\zs\s*$/\='.'repeat(" ", a:columns - len(submatch(1)))'
endfunction
Use by typing in Normal mode :PadColumns 20
. This will add spaces after the line or selected lines to the column you specify (in this case, 20).
You could probably improve this by getting the length of the longest line and so you dont need to specify the specific column to add spaces to (20), and instead just add say 5 spaces after longest line for all lines.

I do not think that this is an existing feature in neovim, however this seems to work
:%s/\(.*\)\zs\s*$/\=repeat(' ', 15 - len(submatch(1)))
Change 15
to the column desired. You could probably create a function where you pass the column number you want so that you dont have to type this string all the time.

During a legislature hearing on Thursday, Antoine Bittar said he had been advocating for tougher drinking and driving legislation when the CAQ offered an opportunity for him and his partner, Élizabeth Rivera, to meet minister Geneviève Guilbault at an October 2023 fundraising cocktail.
Bittar said he and Rivera each paid $100 — the maximum annual political donation — because he felt it was a chance to press their cause and keep it from stagnating. The couple said they were offered four minutes with the minister, two minutes per person.

Cleaning up after myself at home by:
- reducing the amount of things i have which i dont use (i had like 30 plates, 15 cups, etc at one time, now i have 4 of each type)
- house cleaning weekly and tidying up here and there in between (so things dont pile up)
- cooking my own meals instead of having take out all the time (this improved my overall health)

I am commenting on this section of the article:
"We and others have shown that these nanoplastics can be internalized into cells and we know that nanoplastics carry all kinds of chemical additives that could cause cell stress, DNA damage and change metabolism or cell function."
Somarelli said his own, yet-to-be-published work has found more than 100 "known cancer-causing chemicals in these plastics."
And also
What's disturbing, said University of Toronto evolutionary biologist Zoie Diana, is that "small particles can appear in different organs and may cross membranes that they aren't meant to cross, such as the blood-brain barrier."
My point being that it's unlikely that bottled water is the only source of these plastics.

I wouldnt be so quick to blame all of this on water bottles when a high percentage of all the food we consume is packaged in plastic and also the left overs sitting in the fridge.

He'll probably get better service if he calls his credit card company (hopefully he ordered using a credit card) and having them reverse the charges. He'll maybe have to wait 30 days, but since he has a police report and amazon isn't cooperating, I think the cc company will go ahead and do it.
Sure, he wont have a watch but at least he wont be out $2k

Reminds me of the "Op" wars on IRC. All users would be given @ status and the point was to kick everyone before you got kicked. Writing scripts for this was my first "taste" at programming.

He wont have to:
- On July 27, 2022, the Panel released decisions recommending no further action be taken regarding Dr. Peterson’s tweet in which it was alleged he encouraged people to commit suicide (“you’re free to leave at any point”), finding that, while “provocative and inflammatory” it “could be interpreted as innuendo, a joke, or parody”, and did not “rise to the level of disgraceful, dishonourable, or unprofessional conduct.” Additionally, a tweet critical of the involvement of the Children’s Aid Society in removing children from the Ottawa trucker protest was also found to require no further action.
The panel here is the Inquiries, Complaints and Reports Committee (“ICRC”) of the College of Psychologists of Ontario
But it sure doesn't sound like he's off the hook for all the other shit he said.
