That's a scary prospect considering all the studies and news articles that say that putting your kids in school as early as 4 can result in life-long benefits. It's hard to be a parent these days, you feel like nothing you do is e

Some places are sending 3-4 year olds to all day pre-k now too. We're working too much and public schools have become free day care systems.

It's not a mistake, and it isn't severe. You're talking about exceptions to the law, not the law itself. The law is exercised thousands of times a day and wrongful termination lawsuits account for single-digit percentages. As

I do not look forward to the time where something akin to Google Maps starts to approach real-time (yeah I realize the government can more or less do this, but I'm happy with being obscure enough to not catch their gaze)

I was starting to look into VR and I guess this crosses Oculus off the list. I don't intend to ever have a Facebook account.

They don't need an excuse to fire anyone, the majority of the US is at-will employment, which means your employer can fire you without cause. EDIT: What's with the downvotes? it's true.

Right but Purdue was behind the push for doctors to do that. If there's evidence of doctors pushing oxy for kickbacks or something like that then I absolutely think they should be punished. It's worth investigating what the proced

The Sackler family should be completely liquidated. They acted with complete disregard and caused an unbelievable amount of pain. To think, there are people in prison for marijuana charges and these people still walk free. It's an absu

He's not nearly the first one to make this claim, so I'm not sure why it's even notable... "billionaire believes an oft-feared problem"

You're cherry picking examples to suit your narrative. For every person working at a FAANG you can probably find 1,000 working in a place with the same shitty working conditions most people are subjected to. As a counter example cops c

What you're describing is often done in trade high schools. Freshman will rotate through trades and pick one to continue on. Once you need a career it doesn't really work like that though, often you're working years as an app

I think you're underestimating the number of people that live in places where cell companies don't want to be arsed to build a tower.

While it's a terrible situation, it is endearing to see people think on their feet during the pandemic. It would be nice to see some of these methods spread and stick around. It's nothing personal but I loathe negotiating and deal

HTML and CSS have been evolving for over two decades (now maybe faster than ever) and have been battle tested by nearly 2 billion websites. It seems crazy to me to think that we should throw it all out and do something new. I suspect contri

There are already alternative app stores on Android (perhaps most notably, Amazon) and that hasn't impacted their 30%... so what exactly are you expecting?

There's a lot of research on the negative impacts of loot box systems and children and I think it's a worthy topic to mention when Epic tries to take the moral high ground of David fighting Goliath.

This happens often without direct collusion. You see it commonly in retail. Not sure anyone can outlaw unspoken pricing standoffs like this.

Apple's the richest company in the world. They certainly have a lot to lose if they back down, and a court battle's outcome is uncertain. What is also certain is that Apple has enough cash sloshing around to out-lawyer and outla

Our response to the virus as adults is so beyond the pale that it's crazy we're even talking about sending kids to school. Many places in the country have higher infection rates than when they were locked down and the current &quo
