There's still a lot of fear with the federal government still seeing it as illegal. Jeff Sessions could destroy your investment overnight.

Going to chime in with a nitpicky female voice here: abortion isn't really a reoccurring long-term form of birth control that should be lumped in with the pill or IUDs. It's kind of like calling a fighter jet's eject sequence

Sure, but if you get a ticket for doing 100 in a 50 you might be out a few hundred bucks. If you hit someone while doing 100 in a 50 you'll be in jail. Outcomes still matter.

Wait wait wait, he committed fraud... but everyone he defrauded actually ended up getting a 3X return on their investment because he just took money from another one of his ventures? I mean, illegal sure, but seems like he still held up his

A lot has changed since they started, I imagine it's a nice "if you had to start all over again how would you do it differently" moment. A lot of companies don't really get that chance, hence: cool. Now, maybe it's

Most major redesigns end up being a mistake. It's cool that they're re-writing, but they should change things for users in an iterative way or they're going to get extreme backlash. People do not respond well to drastic cha

A manager could then point to the salary of someone in the same position and say "Jane gets paid $X in the same position, it would be unfair to give you a raise and not her" I don't work somewhere with transparent salaries an

Why is the assumption that when a political party hates something, it's because the opposing party did something wrong? I know a lot of over-zealous liberals who have definitely misrepresented facts, but honestly I don't think I&#

It's kind of sad that you think accuracy is the reason conservatives hate liberal ideas (sad because I know you're trying your best to help here). You're talking about a political base that is currently thriving almost entire

I feel like it boils down to options a bit. If I don't take the opportunity to work in Australian mines, will I have a reasonable opportunity to find work and provide a comfortable living for my family? If that answer would change whet

That's like saying an informed society is better than a society that doesn't have OSHA regulations... You can't dangle millions of dollars in front of (often poor, often minority) college students and say "well you were

There's a lot of stupidity on both ends of the political spectrum, but the nature of conservatism seems more prone to conspiracy generation because it's essentially a bunch of political viewpoints that culminate to: government is

That's very very backwards. Local business are charging $6 for milk because they have to make enough profit to pay rent. The soaring rent is absolutely due to high-salary tech work; the bay area existed for decades without these signif

I work 9-5 with a 30 minute commute and see my kid for about 2 hours a day during the week. If you leave at 9 I imagine you get some morning time, so maybe that's your time (and you'd get probably roughly 2 hours there?). Totally

Does anyone know if the Chinese government has done any public education campaign on the issue? It often seems as mainlanders just don't know — they'll literally spit on the floor of a bus.
