Because of that, I feel that the value proposition of a video rental store next block is becoming quite good again. Cheaper than renting/buying from Prime or Play. Too bad they're all dead now. I am not sure the new video movie wo

I find that Chris Rock has the best summary of it with his "I'm American" routine: "What, you think you’re better than somebody from France ’cause you came out of a pussy in Detroit?" Nothing specifically American a

Every time Flexport is hiring on HN, it goes front page. I always wondered why... Are they gaming the system? Has PG a way to pump them up since he is an investor? Or is shipping sexy to the HN crowd?

I very much like free market. But here, the final consumer is not in a position to bargain prices when getting sick, which is a pre-requisite for a free market to function. Single-payer system works way better in that very particular indust

This is a very fair point. Still, I would hope that it would make it harder to link a purchase to an identified individual. If I assume the US is a country where the laws and constitution is respected, then only a formal subpoena would link
