The government is also involved in lots of other things without exploding costs. I’d say the common thread is the combination of these factors: 1) the service is considered essential by consumers and 2) payments are deferred (by insurance o

No, the fiduciary duty is not that prescriptive. The courts aren’t going to second-guess whether a corporation is taking the profit-maximizing action at all times.

I don’t understand, how would AirBnB segmenting their marketing cause it to cost twice as much? Imagine AirBnB and the low cost company both exist as you imagine. Now suppose AirBnB buys the low cost company and doesn’t change their marketi

There are lots of devs who live in the East Bay (I used to live there myself), but most don’t. The more successful devs (who you are looking to poach) generally live on the other side, and they live there because they don’t want to drive ac

That’s sounds like a pretty serious issue for your quality of life. I would ask your workplace to fix it, pursue a legal remedy, or find a new job. In the US, you might be protected by the Americans with Disabilities Act, which has some tee

Agreed, but this is true whether or not you’re using parent’s plan of not knowing the password.

The part I don’t get is how not knowing your password makes the situation worse. The password recovery mechanism exists whether or not you use it every time you log in. The way I see it, not knowing your password removes some potential thre

If you are making up random usernames on a banking site, attackers aren’t going to know your username. So it is two-step. This is not a great idea if you have a public profile connecting your username to your email because someone can hack

Babies are even more disruptive, from my experience. If people hate traveling with dogs or babies enough, they could pay for a more private form of transport. It’s not worth the price to me. Edited to remove option of banning the dogs (alth

If you buy, you have expenses but any principal payments you make are wealth that you keep. So you can retire to Romania later if you feel like it. Getting paid Bay Area salaries and owning a home is a great way to build wealth even if you
