That's actually part of the problem I have with this model. These companies are charging you to reduce the amount of time you have to play the game to achieve the goals set in the game. They could make a game where you get the same sat

A decade ago Lyme disease landed me in the hospital with carditis and neurological issues. I still worry that my brain doesn't work as well as it used to, but I don't have symptoms severe enough to make me seek out additional trea

It's hard to say for certain, but it sounds as if you may have been doing things that caused lots unnecessary re-renders. React has some pitfalls for beginners, but I've built highly complex frequently updating webapps without the

Cargo trains are much longer than container ships (at least in the US). The average train is over a mile long, and trains that are 3 or more miles long are not uncommon. A single ship is of course still going to carry a lot more cargo, but

Depop is reuse. Progress is made on the margins. Absolutist judgement of something a lot of people like does nothing to help.

A bit of fluff unrelated to the main story might diminish the reliability of the narrator a bit, but I don't think you can conclude the entire story is fictional as a result.

Interesting that the UK-based Independent did this reporting without mentioning that the NHS still hasn't issued approval for Truvada to be provided outside of trial programs.

If you want to call that margin, it's margin with 100% collateral. It's not margin in any meaningful sense. It's like if you handed your broker a check and said you wanted to make buy a stock for the value of the check. Would

That's absolutely not true. You have to specifically opt-in to trading on margin, read disclosures, and have a minimum $2k balance. Instant deposit is not trading on margin, it's trading on deposits that you make that are instantl

Five years ago civil society was in general agreement that racism was bad and that we should respect the democratic process instead of seeking to violently overthrow it. Of course there were people who disagreed but they were at the margins

Printing money has not had much impact on consumer prices. But it seems very plausible that it is causing inflation of asset prices, including equities, and that that is a distortion of the market that could have negative long-run repercuss

We're fortunate to be in a position where the profit incentive has led to a situation where, when there is a disruption in the demand distribution points (restaurants), the biggest problem is that we have too much production. Without t

They're both. They're selling a service to consumers, which they buy with their personal data. They then use that data to sell to advertisers in the form of better targeted ads. They didn't even run ads for the first three

No, New York mandates that everyone who wants a bed in a shelter gets one. The City does a lot to try to get people into shelters, unfortunately, some people would rather be on the street than in a shelter (some due to mental health issues

Other people have already addressed that $90 is not that much for good lighting. But why would the price point of things have any bearing on whether we're in a bubble? If consumers are buying those things at what you would consider to

I'm always stunned by the degree to which "resisting" consists of haughty dismissiveness of SpaceX and whining about subsidies (which Arianespace itself receives in spades). I wonder if these people will be able to swallow t
