Probably the only journal among this "top Elsevier journals" list that one might have difficulty finding pre-prints for is NeuroImage; I'll bet the other medical journals will have preprints on medrxiv: https://blo

Fiat can deflate, though rarely. Just look at '08/'09. The inflation/deflation curve of US fiat has been much more predictable than BTC. You're statement "just another store of value" is almost a tautolo

I think it's weird that this article tries really hard to have sympathy for vultures. "They had to lay off three people." Versus how many Toys R Us and Radio Shack employees were laid off?

Hey, here in the author's home state lawmakers have just proposed a 0.4% wealth tax, just beneath the author's capital-flight-threat threshold! https://www.forbes.com/sites/robertwood/2020/08/17

Interesting that AT&T and Samsung can collude to pre-install AT&T and Samsung bloat on my Galaxy S7 Edge Android device, but Fortnite couldn't collude with OnePlus to pre-install bloat? (Yes, I see that the carrier and the #1

Where is the photo of the founder wearing a black turtleneck? I won't believe the results until I see that.

"However, YouTube expects that by removing the option to monetize these sorts of videos themselves, some copyright holders will instead just leave them alone." Uh, no. Why would copyright holders do that?

Assertion pretty obvious, non? (Of course a knowledge-based economy is going to pollute less than an industrial- and/or resource-driven one.) Then the first line of the author's thesis (more capitalism needed) doesn't follow

At most grocery stores, the price per ounce is quoted beneath the overall item price. I realize reading glasses are expensive, but can the economists at the Bank of International Settlements and MIT not simply calculate inflation that way?

Sounds like a very interesting article, but could you modify the title to include '[paywall]'? I realize that paid news is the way things are going, but we don't have to give paywalls free clicks, do we?

Terrible article. Canadians live 2 years longer on average than Americans. And you're telling me the US mental health system would have been more pro-active? Come on. "Hers was Sault Ste. Marie’s sole homicide of 2013." How m
