It gets better. The WHO puts ischaemic heart disease as claiming about 9 million lives a year world wide. Most of which is caused from unhealthy diet, not exercising and smoking. Summing up to piss poor life choices. Yet theres a movement t

It's a long article of a dude trying to convince others that he's not responsible for his own actions and it's someone else's fault when he does something wrong.

I have a feeling this is going to end up similar to the "open office" fad. Lots of companies are going to go 100% on "forever work from home". Then in a year it's going to be not so much. That being said, I do belie

Just to clarify a bit. This is about long, passive holds compared to active trading. On average, you're better off staying long by diversifying on 500 large, successful companies, compared to picking choosing random companies on short

The baby seal analogy is extreme. But the base point, dont complain people do something bad, when you do it yourself. If you think Amazon is great and unskilled labor doesn't deserve equal rights, that's fine. I can't argue w

Dont forget to get a present? I mean, the world has existed great for a long time prior to Amazon's existence. Now everyone acts like Prime is an essential service to life itself. It's pretty pathetic. Like, really pathetic. Your

Yea, but anyone that owns a small business understands how you hide profit so you get taxed less. Given how quickly and easily the axe comes down on sub par Google products, I highly doubt they'd keep YouTube if it wasn't profitab

I think the gov, at this point, should do a serious and thorough investigation on workers rights violations with proper/harsh punishments where appropriate along with investigating anti competitive practices. But I dont believe its gen

Yea... we aren't legally compelled to buy anything on amazon either. A portion of every dollar spent on Amazon is extra funding for lobbyists and lawyers to fight against regulation. This is my ultimate point. "The people" do

Justify the practice? I'm the one arguing that Amazon is too large and we need better labor laws to protect workers, but the public isn't helping the matter by crying, then buying stuff on Amazon. Yes laws exist for a reason, but

Doesn't help when the general public bank rolls companies to fight laws and regulatory actions. That's my point. The money Amazon uses doesn't magically appear. These companies dont use spells to generate income, it comes fro

Okay, so I do believe in worker's rights and in general that Amazon is too large. Especially that city bidding mess where it was just a way to get free data from cities about their future plans. But I don't like the argument in th

Seeing that chart of the 5 largest companies in 2010 vs 2020 blew my mind a bit. The idea that Facebook is bigger than Exxon was back in 2010 (even with the rate of inflation), when electric cars were still a wet dream, crazy. Even more, th

I only disagree in the aspect that fragile isn't a strong enough word to describe what you're talking about. Plus, correct me if I'm wrong, AI still isn't at a problem solving capacity yet. It's still just a fast ac

Because Google is totally above that? They're companies. They aren't in it for the hugs and kisses. It's about the money. But Google having a monopoly is pretty bad too, especially for the creators.

Clearly bad people? Once YOU decided someone is bad, they are guilty by default of anything? This is how the courts worked back in the day in Germany with Jews. Jews were clearly untrustworthy to them. Same when Japan took over China. Chine
