According to the article at least (which has been pointed out to be one-sided), at least one of the officers empties the first magazine and reloads. This would be 15-17 for the first officer, and the article also notes that the second car

Agreed. I like maltz's suggested clickbait title "The shocking change at your kids' high school you absolutely must know about".

I wonder if we can then reduce this example to a 1-finger sequence. Could a court require you to turn over all of your fingerprints, but not identify the (1 character) sequence?

The city should budget an amount for each year in payouts. Start with the average amounts over the past 5-10 years plus 10%. When all of the complaints for that year have been settled, anything left goes out to the department as bonuses.

I listened to this earlier today - and had to head directly to their site to see pictures. A little odd, even for planet money, but a good way to start my day.

I'm sure the same benefit could be gained through a leg band. For me, I tend to move around in my sleep, so I wonder if it would work.

In addition to the other comments, mortgages under $50k might be very hard to write legally. For the most part, the origination, appraisal, and closing fees for a $50k loan and a $250k loan should be very similar. Let's assume $2000 i

I'm wondering if investing in for-profit companies is a major influence of this decision. With this, the LLC can invest in solar startups, or obscure medical companies. As a philanthropic enterprise, no one expects it gain profits fr

On your first point, I agree that the message is most often overshadowed by delivery. But I also agree with mentat's point that at some point "um" can make the speaker sound stupid. > It's not good managerial advice

To which someone could respond "But my job isn't public speaking, it is doing X" where X is providing ads, making widgets, etc. No matter how many times you rephrase, you may hit a point where you just say "you sound st

And this would have been a third attempt in the same vein. Kim may have then replied "Why does it matter if I am a good public speaker, the numbers were great!", in which case, you have to remove the last case of sugar coating an

So on a whim, I put some system documentation that I wrote into the simple word writer linked on that page (xkcd.com/simplewriter). So many red words... perhaps that's a challenge suited for another day.

I've recently listened to the podcast Serial, and another called Undisclosed about the 1999 murder of a high school girl in Baltimore. Really interesting listen, and a of a scary view into the criminal justice system.

30mpg at $2.25/gal is 7.5c per mile. Versus 9c for an EV (7c battery, 2c elec), this is a $1500 over 100k miles. If we consider the other maintenance costs, I think they are nearly equivalent.

I think that another alternative would be to increase the cost of vehicle registration as a percent of the vehicle cost. This way it is progressive and untied to fuel usage. Multi-car discounts could be given much like insurance (cars aft

It is also similar to the criticism of CEO pay for nonprofits. If the CEO brings in additional donations and furthers the organization's mission, why wouldn't they have pay competitive to a for-profit org? Why should you be paid
