Personally I don't see a single clear line where you should stop so I think that it should probably be spelled out in the competition rules. I think it's fairly easy to describe either side of the line even if the line itself is a little

Selling company stock is not a business model, howeverr great an exit strategy it might be for founders. It does mean that someone substantially values the company, but doesn't say anything about its role in the economy outside that one tr

What would the statistics tell you? How do you quantify interest? Decisions are easier to quantify, but still can be difficult to measure. What influences the decisions?

This is not a question plagued by the LMGTFY problem, where people are told to use a search engine, but they only find other people asking the question and being told to use a search engine. What it is, is a question burdened with too man

Rhetorical DDoS goes both ways. In fact it even goes more ways than both if you consider the amount of straw-manning that goes on amongst propagandists. Frustration may be true but is merely an excuse for individual's behavior. It doesn't

Next time someone asks you what you study, wait a beat then ask them (with humor) if they sing in the shower. It's not your fault they just asked you a boring question.

No, I do not mean that it happened so long ago that it seems natural now. I mean that no one ever had to force it unnaturally, unless in the context of a larger and stricter school of etiquette such as the court of Louis XIV in France. The

I'm personally offended by your generalization of what you feel is deterring women to enter tech. Of course you are offended. That's why reasonable, more detailed examination of generalizations such as mine rarely happens and you certain

To be fair, this was probably just a matter of phrasing on his part. Instead of using the word "assume" (triggering a pithy response) he should have stated this: If the man the police have arrested is indeed Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, t

This is misleading: The economy of the last century was primarily based on natural resources, industrial machines and manual labor. Many of these resources were zero-sum and controlled by companies. If someone else had an oil field, then y

Diets that include grains typically expect people will get over half of their calories from carbohydrates. Atkins is the extreme opposite and is virtually a "no carb" diet as the purpose is to deplete glycogen stores and induce ketosis. "4

I don't find the article stereotyping. Failing to address the point that yes, sometimes research can be broad rather than specific, isn't stereotyping it's just that he's writing a blog post and not a book.

Paleo is a low-carb diet. By consequence rather than design, and it's certainly not an Atkins/ketosis diet, but the emphasis is on fish, meat and eggs. If you need to consume a standard ratio of carbs:protein:fat on the paleo diet you're

I largely don't accept the premise in favor of: you're more likely to get fat eating foods that promote overeating My argument is that the factors are not mutually exclusive. Huh and yeah, 4000 calories per day would constitute an absolut

Sure you can sustain yourself on grains, but why would you do that when you can thrive on paleo? Grains are cheaper. Grains are more efficient to eat, especially on a regular basis. Grains taste good.

the fat comes packaged with an array of chemicals designed to circumvent satiety signals, plus a lot of salt, sugar, and other goodies thrown in for good measure. I think that, in many cases, no extra chemicals are even necessary. Salt,

Your appetite sounds much smaller than mine. But the examples are mostly a waste of time. Either you accept my premise or not, which is: You're more likely to get fat eating calorie-dense foods. There are many mechanisms to regul
