The other side of this is that victims of sex trafficking are often so emotionally attached to their pimp that arrest is sometimes the only way to separate them and force them to talk to a counselor. These women are often mentally impaired

I constantly feel like my doctors are hamstrung in providing me with the best medical care because of this. It's hard to recommend the best medical option for your patient when you have no idea at what point in time they will be able t

It's amazing to me that with all the evidence showing that increased road capacity doesn't relieve congestion and often times exacerbates it these projects still happen. I'm glad Los Angeles passed measure M (a public transit

Anyone familiar with the economics behind this? Seems like things tend to go south when the government tries to mess with CEO pay. Public companies required to publish CEO pay, pay rises as CEO's have a baseline for negotiating. I like

Is 1,700 units at all meaningful for Santa Monica housing prices? Is it worth the city expending all these resources to stop what seems like a blip on the radar?

Oh wow, that's harsh. I can't believe you aren't allowed to direct people to the web experience. That must seriously erode margins for hardware folks.

How exactly does Apple's payment system work for companies that are cross platform? If I have a Dropcam subscription and am using the ios app, is Dropcam paying Apple 15% of my subscription cost? That seems nuts.

Great analysis! I'd be interested to see an analysis of the demographics of the police departments in cities with a high percentage of revenue coming from fines. It might also be interesting to look at the historical demographics of th

This is part of what I'm asking. The valuation is growing, as is the amount of money their taking. That means the company now has to exit for that much more in order for employees to see any return. If I'm an early employee I now

This seems to be the important quote on the findings: “We can give psilocybin to depressed patients, they can tolerate it, and it is safe. This gives us an initial impression of the effectiveness of the treatment.” All the legal hurdles the

I disagree with that. There are many reasons artists want to keep prices low. In this case maybe you don't want to reserve your ticket a full year in advance. An artist might also want their work to be accessible to more people than th

What are effective methods for stopping ticket scalpers? Heavily penalizing resale is kind of a crappy route but for a show like Hamilton I wonder what the legitimate person resale case is. Has any artist fended off the scalpers successfull

As long as the absolute number of units in that 75% is large enough, it can still successfully kick start this filtering process. Fascinating to see actual studies supporting what the free market is already pushing for, more luxury housing.

This article hints at schools inability to justify their ever increasing prices. Why is tuition continuing to rise so much faster than inflation? Is this simple supply and demand? Government backed loans create infinite supply to anyone who
