"Rational" has never meant that people know what they need, only that they know what they want. And people can "want" things for any number of silly or rational reasons. In the case of Dogecoin, it may be silly to you,

They actually do do business with you in the form of a 10 btc limit at ach transfer speeds. For most people this is annoying but sufficient. They're just not willing to, you know, give a total stranger on the internet access to $5,00

This is negative commenting. A new awesome feature came out and you said you don't really care about it unless they also provide X features. But then you gave no argument as to whether or not they already provide X features. This le

Actually it seems a large part of the expectation is that many slackers will prefer quitting to commuting. This would allow Yahoo to get rid of the unproductive and/or hire actual productive people in their place, with little effort. I don

Goliath is probably Luxottica, who owns a lot of other companies and sells a large share of high end eyewear. 60 Minutes did a piece on them: http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=7424700n
