My theory is that when the QE rounds started and trillions of dollars were pumped into the economy (major inflationary red flag), the velocity of money dropped like a rock (major deflationary red flag) as a natural reaction. EDIT: The reaso

I've heard that cleaning your ears causes more wax to be produced. Maybe this is why your ears ended up chock full.

The truth is that 7 billion people didn't notice. Why didn't they use that title? BTW, I agree with your edit. An R&D blog shouldn't be held to the same standard of journalistic excellence as a reputable news source, eve

Are you not a fan of commercial works of art? Also, I think you are conflating entertainment with art. They are not the same in my opinion.

True. But presumably they could pass this proxy fee on to the content creators.

Could they could get around this by charging a proxy fee? I don't know because I don't use Netflix. Would any of you who currently pay for Netflix, pay a little more to be able to access it through a proxy?

Pretty much everyone justifies the things that they really want to do. And if they really want to do illicit or unethical things, they still do it (and justify it) as long as they don't think they will get caught. This is one reason lo

This has happened to me a lot in my life--in fact one of my high school teachers called me my brother's name the entire school year. But I didn't feel belittled. Some people are just bad with names. I've figured out how to b

I don't see why this is such a huge deal. First, they no longer used remelted chocolate. Second, Mast Brothers are obviously tapping into the startup/hipster culture and selling chocolate to people who want to seem crafty and arti

So, from the comment at the bottom of the article I played around with the article itself a little more. If you separate the word innkeeper into two words you can get the following: 89 years 263 of 201 undeciphered 500 wo

Everybody hates tourists and it's hilarious. You live in a place that exists because of and is sustained by tourism and yet you hate all the people who come there and spend money. Here's an idea: move to a place that tourists don&

I live in an area that was hit by tornadoes that day I found an interior door from a manufactured home in my back yard. The closest mobile home that was hit was probably 10 miles away "the way the crow flies". This door was about
