It's not you. The entire comment is a disorganized mess of poorly thought out and non-cohesive grammar. In the section quoted below for example, he starts off by writing about critiques, in which he appears to have immediately grasped

You're conflating current disbursements with the outstanding debt, which is what the original assertion was on. Either way it is looked at though, their assertion is wrong.

Of course it was based on the number of dollars, but based on which figures? It was an assertion conjured out of thin air. If there are five times as many undergrad students as grad students and a similar percentage of grad students had t

Plenty of parents do not know how to manage their finances any more than any other things that they do not know, which a school is supposed to be responsible for teaching. Financial literacy is one of the most important things that a perso

Almost 60% of U.S. undergraduate students take out either federal or private loans and there are 5x as many undergraduate students as graduate students in the U.S. For those downvoting: 54% of US graduate students take out student loans, wh

What do you think you're saying here? If Elon's companies were ever served a US warrant, it wouldn't be a FISA warrant. Telecommunications providers are compelled to provide information under FISA, but this has nothing to do

You are being incredibly obtuse here. Imagine if a top secret document was published. The fact of the document being published does not mean that the document is no longer classified as top secret, just because it has been viewed by peopl

I don't quite think that first analogy works. Greek city states or old feudal-like European states with shared culture and language are more like what I was thinking of.

They look poor compared to what? They're more modern looking than the ISS suits currently in use.

I don't think there's an issue with being motivated by a desire to sell books. Selling poorly supported narrative-driven historical fiction as a work of pop history is potentially an issue though.

I remember this same thing. I think it is likely that there was never just one Mayan civilization, but that these different Mayan civilizations may have broadly shared a similar culture.

I think this was a fair question to ask and I'm not really understanding why you're being attacked for it. For a strike to be effective, the union collectively bargaining via a strike needs to have clearly defined, but also reali

In today's market, most companies will automatically filter out bootcamper applications regardless of candidate background. It shouldn't be considered unusual that a subset of those are not being hired.

The intended implication of the presented statistic is obvious, but the actual disparity is impossible to realize without context on the types of positions being included in the statistic.

That is exactly what they are saying. The public records typically contain annual compensation, not the detailed breakdown available via Work Number.

Good question. When they decided to get into digital book lending, they should have created a separate legal entity to do it under. Archive was the wrong entity to challenge book copyright and ebook lending purely from the perspective of th

What are you referencing as not following? I'm not in discordance that CDL was likely illegal, simply in how they were making and sharing unauthorized electronic reproductions. At that point, it doesn't even matter how many people

That example isn't the same at all. BitTorrent is just an application for torrenting. It isn't an organization centrally hosting content like IA is. Both Megaupload and Rapidshare are much more similar examples of sites that all

Copyright law is broken in the US, but that doesn't mean that Internet Archive was going to legally get away with what they were doing and escape legal trouble, even if it arguably wasn't morally wrong.

Out of curiosity, which part of the 1988 constitution makes it unconstitutional?

Google, Facebook and other internet platforms destroyed the viability of the industry previously providing the advertising mediums, which were newspapers/magazines. They didn't completely destroy the ad agencies creating the adver

Evergrande imploded because of massive amounts of debt that they had been rolling for years. Continually rolling this massive debt was working till property demand slowed and their revenues couldn't keep up adequately to qualify them

It's not the same at all. Efficient Market Hypothesis is the actual given name of an economic hypothesis. "Trickle Down" economics is a derogatory term applied to a number of controversial economic policies, by opponent of t

Yes, this is correct. I disagree with the other guy who said that it was ambiguous. Claiming the prices were hiked by 300% is simply wrong.

Robert Shiller, who had long been one of the most vocal critics of the efficient market hypothesis and the idea of efficient markets, shared the Nobel Prize in economics alongside Eugene Fama in 2013. Shiller is also well known for the Cas

Way to observe the obvious. That is exactly my point, hence the wording "were also developed during that period". All of the developments I mentioned up to that point were pre-2010, so I'm baffled how you interpreted this as

I agree and I don't think the guy who previously responded to you had a very constructive or relevant response, considering that you and the person you were responding to were clearly referencing consumer technology. From 1980 till 20

The original YT account associated with the email was created in mid-2010, so not pre-acquisition.

Google also spawned a second one for me from my original gmail address, but I still use my original pre-google+ youtube account. After signing in to that google account on any given device, I have the option to switch between the two youtub
