I had a feeling this was going on after looking into starting a liquor company with some friends. There are several large manufacturers producing all types of alcohol (whiskey, gin, vodka, etc.) and selling in bulk to bottlers. This is like

The "rule of thumb" I was told when I got my first car was to change the oil every 3 months or every 3000 miles, whichever came first. My current vehicle requires oil changes at 7.5k miles or 7.5 months, sooner under "severe&

I believe part of the issue is that as hybrids and electric vehicles become more popular, they won't be contributing anything for their road use so we do need to seek alternative means of taxing vehicles. I think the simplest method wo

I thought that was a bit off putting too. The school I go to is ~75% male and I've overheard women complaining several times about how they wish there were more girls for them to hang out with. I hear pretty much the same thing from th

I assumed that they were saying that Canadians didn't tip well and waitstaff used that as a euphemism for anyone they don't expect to tip well. That's just the way I read it, I could be wrong.

This post is literally a rebuttal to an argument that doesn't exist. Ageism and sexism in the tech industry definite deserve being addressed, too bad this post doesn't come close to forming an intelligent argument about either.
