She's saying that how can you be so sure that sugar is the culprit? 30 years ago, people were very sure that fat was the culprit. I actually do personally think that sugar is a main driver of these problems, but I get her point.

The objective overseer is the market. If the flaw described is not noteworthy or material (i.e. just hype), then no profit can be made, as there won't be a market impact.

I don't view this as unethical. I think it actually promotes security. Consider that there are lots of products out there with serious vulnerabilities that no one knows about. A bad actor has tons of incentive to try to find these and

Your post is an amazing contradiction, all within about 20 seconds. An incredible read! < One of the most effective ways of learning is to hear and consider ideas opposed to the ones you currently hold. < Second, what the hell kind of

But why would they be angry at her for leaving the kid alone? What danger is the kid in? What do they care what she does with her kid if the kid is in no danger? (Not to mention, how could she afford the child care?)

In my opinion, the key asset Uber has is their driver network. Like you say, anyone can build a similar app pretty quickly, but who will use it if there are no rides available? They've paid so much into user acquisition precisely so it

Are you just making a sidenote here? This article was using the Kosher/Halal example as just an example of a phenomena, not a thing to fear or praise.

I don't see why youd need to have any sort of website/outward facing material for this. If you can really do what it says on your about page, then just trade!

I suspect most of the founders are extremely focused on growing their business. Anything that can help with that (free advertising in this case) is something they'll do. This is just a guess though - I'm not one of these founders.

No. Compare any big banks revenues from trading against the revenues of a public HFT firm like virtu. No contest.

I thought they were very smart to put a link to datacamp.com in the load message of data.table.

They are definitely not imaginary, they just have probabilities baked into them. Many people traded around that valuation which is much different than your example. Valuations of public companies aren't always rational in my opinion, h

You're assuming a 100% taxed marginal rate after some income level. That seems extremely unlikely. As long as the marginal tax rate is <100%, there will be incentive to work. But who says income tax is the only type of tax? You can

I'm curious, are there no tests for the code running this? It seems like some of these bugs would be caught with them (especially the typo). And it seems like insanity to not have them.

This isn't a new problem. Old media has been doing this for centuries.

I don't buy this planned obsolescence bs. I get that most markets aren't very free, but they're free enough to ensure that superior products generally win out. Companies are trying to make money today . They aren't thin

She/he could do that, but it wouldn't make a large impact. I think the OP meant that they'd rather pay more taxes with the assumption that everyone else is paying more taxes too. That would make a large impact. It's the

You're assuming that there is any effectiveness at all in TSA's procedures. I'm highly skeptical of that myself. It seems they are always fighting the last war. Someone just tried to detonate a shoe bomb? Better make people t

As someone who is in the scenario you describe (new city - don't know many people), I really love this idea. I would definitely use it if it were a big thing, but it will be a less than ideal experience in the early stages (not many pr

I'm actually a stock trader, so it's even more skewed for me and would be a good example. Let's say I get paid $50 per year. At the end of the year, depending on my/our performance, I will get paid between $0 and $200 as

Wait, those seriously happen? I thought examples of that were just satire. I guess there are some upsides to working in finance. That would never happen there lol.

When you say "there's nothing innovative about it" regarding hearthstone, you could say that about several of the games Blizzard has made. WoW is a direct, improved copy of EQ and others. The default hotkeys for EQ and WoW we

I don't think this is a good example of what you're trying to argue. It could easily be said that if water was privately provided, rates could be set such that the economics are feasible (everyone needs water - the demand curve is

Would it be outside the realm of possibility for China to mandate that people move to those cities to fill them?
