Where is the market for the vets who are a bit more expensive but only have a wait time of a few days, with emergency services available at a premium comparable to the PE's but with better treatment? Are we saying that vets would rathe

Is there even a consistent notion to the idea of a person adding a set amount of value? If we take a 3 person company and use a simple system to measure value added, how do you break down the value added by A who is +100k, B who is x2, and

I wonder if this will result in a demographic shift. I would hypothesize, though I have no immediate data to back it up, that the set of those who play Minecraft isn't the same as the set of those who use social media. While plenty w

I think one would want a mix of both. You want to promote internally so you have some people higher up who understand the business deeply in ways that an external hire would not as well as promote retention and reward going above and beyon

A moderator would have the power to censor as some sort of final option when other moderation techniques failed. Generally we don't have instances where the moderator needs to use it. So a moderator moderates, and extreme cases of mod

It has a purpose, but the writer needs to be clear which groups are being compared. Saying that 80% of group's A value X fell under the median of group's B value of X can be a useful number for some analysis, even when group B is

How would it be implemented? If you gave everyone $1k a month by printing more money, then that creates a different scenario that giving everyone $1k a month that's fully funded by taxes. A UBI that replaces existing benefits which att

This is a point I wish more people would understand. There are logical fallacies that always make for a bad argument and logical fallacies that are reasonable but not logical proofs. For example correlation causation is one that needs to b

One major factor is a disagreement in what counts as speech. I see this from people individually discussing topics and from official stances of platforms, even supposedly free speech platforms. One of the safer to discuss at work examples
