As an aside, I've got the Dualit toaster he talks so much about, and it's worth every penny. Attractively designed, built like a tank, lifetime warranty, easy to clean, and makes perfect toast.

No, of course not. You're obviously just fine as you are. That said, your atheist parents may have done a particularly good job teaching you common sense, empathy, and civility, or you may be naturally inclined towards common sense, em

Oh, there's still great stories being produced, and the best writers manage to work within the Marvel continuity while not assuming their readers have prior knowledge of it. Unfortunately, you can't see any of that from the cover

Emporia, Virginia. It's actually an independent city rather than a county (a historical quirk of Virginia), and Christians as a whole still outnumber Muslims, but there the Muslim congregation is larger than any one denomination of Chr

I wonder how much the length of the work week is related to cultural belief in upward mobility, either for yourself or for your children. When I was a kid, my own family - mostly blue-collar, unionized workers - would've only supported

I didn't have a startup in Vancouver, but a prominent angel investor in Vancouver put some money into my NYC-based startup, and I flew out there for a couple of 'portfolio summits', with companies largely-based in Vancouver.

Yes, this is exactly the problem I'm talking about. The barrier to patent reform is not structural. It has a name and face, and when you handwave it away to 'structural problems' you just encourage everyone to do nothing.

Like I said, patent reform has already passed with huge bipartisan support in the House of Representatives. It's clear here that the problems aren't with 'American democracy' (or any other incredibly-broad and incredibly

Grousing about oligarchs, special interests, and the political system as a whole is unproductive and misguided. After all, patent reform has already passed with huge bipartisan support in the House of Representatives. Instead, you should fo

It might be an awesome extension, but if it's not related to the company at honeybadger.io, you need to rename the thing. Even if the similarity was completely inadvertent, it's just going to lead to confusion and legal hassle, an

Toronto might be a little better than Vancouver, but the difference isn't that extreme - we're not talking Silicon Valley vs. Des Moines here. You're concerned about the weather - Vancouver's the clear winner here. You

Quality of education varies with the professor, as always, and what you get depends on how hard you work. The Ivy League - and other high-prestige schools like Stanford - are primarily useful for the connections you make and the status they

The Google Maps product really is lacking outside of the United States. I was down in Chile's Lake District last week, and Google totally failed me, both in Pucón and Panguipulli. These are not particularly tiny towns - in fact, Pucón

Yes, although founders and early employees of companies at this stage can often exit by selling on the secondary market. For individuals the trap is somewhat porous.

How much do you think it would actually cost to move them along to the infighting, corruption, and discrediting implosion stage of their social movement? Thirty thousand, maybe? Google should just give them that as a 'down-payment&#x27

Like a lot of our political discourse these days, this is just dickering over the precise definition of 'kulak'.

Absolutely - you don't need to protect people from the consequences of their speech. So why are there no consequences for the sort of person who's not professional enough to keep a person's activities outside work separate fr

That's also interesting to me. I've caught the same lucky breaks that you have, more or less, but why feel guilty over them? After all, you didn't put in a special request for them. There was no one moment when you said &quot

Yes, I see what you mean. I make a distinction between the luck (or the lack of it) coming from societal structures, and the luck (or the lack of it) that comes from random events, chance meetings, the black box that is the AppStore, and so
