So to succeed as an entrepreneur you have to remove everything from your life that makes it worth living? Feh.

I haven't looked in awhile, but when I used to watch dota streams the top four or five (by viewer count) were always extremely attractive Eastern European and Russian women. They were better than average players, but not good enough t

>Playing a game and running a stream, technically, is not hard. Engaging with viewers is not hard. That's all true, but anything you do for a living gets old after awhile, especially if you're putting in long hours. I like to

I suspect it's the sort of "telethon" mentality. Some people see the donations as a competition (not intellectually, but emotionally). They want to win , so they donate way more than is reasonable. Beyond that, wasn't

Or... there wasn't much of an unserved market, and all seven electricians make $30/hr.

The problem with the UK military is it's been starved for funds for so many years one wonders how long it would take to gear up for an actual "near peer" conflict.

I would, and I think most other Americans would too.

We've been "whining" about it because it allows you to spend on social programs without worrying about your security. The money we spend on your security would be better spent at home on our social programs.

The first time a putative national leader was picked by people outside a country's borders, that country would leave the union. And who could blame them?

I'll explain it this way: Both the feminists and the communists espouse equality as a tool to get what they're really after - power.
252.
by gozur88 9y ago
Sure. Just like the communists thought people should be equal.

The feminists created the environment in which it becomes the smart thing to do.

SpaceX got money from the US taxpayer. It wasn't a lot by the standard of rocket development, and Musk put in a lot of his own money, but SpaceX wouldn't have survived without the government. Elon Musk is very up front about tha

You can print parts with geometries that would be very expensive or even impossible to machine.

In theory you can hedge that risk with an annuity, and anyway you get social security until you die.

The cash payout part of a pension is, as you point out, just math. The problem is health care. If you retired in, say, 1980 with a pension that included health care, the company ended up paying out (on average) far, far more than they exp

I laughed my ass off when, after all the complaining the Germans did about the NSA collecting their PM's phone conversations, it turned out they did the very same thing to Hillary Clinton when she was Secretary of State travelling in E

That's what Dennis Kucinich wanted to call it, though not so much in a newspeak way as just to reinforce a pacifist foreign policy.

I was right there. I watched her try to match the signature.

I had a check rejected at the bank. My signature didn't match the card on file closely enough, so they sort of put me through the ringer before they cashed it. Wasn't even a lot of money.

Real reason: "I had to learn cursive, damnit, so you do too!"

Of course they know. It's not a question of knowledge. The problem is evolution designed us to eat more than we need so we don't starve in lean times - for all of human history up to, what, 150 year ago or so the biggest threat t

None of that is true except the fat part. Do you really think people don't know when they're fat. Do you think they don't realize other people are fat? And leadership to do what ?
