People are becoming less thoughtful. With the advent of social media, almost anything one might think about has an appropriate right think construct and the incentives for conformity are more powerful. Humanities have been devalued and coop

Sure, they are there to be champions. And every girl goes to Cali to be a star. But at what cost and to what gain and at what odds are all questions parents need to consider. The article largely agrees that the way it’s done is according to

Just spitballing here, but the subscription model and streaming and the increasing competition is doing this to the industry. Providers will have to increase the velocity of their output to keep up. I will guess that each of these canceled

Yes I will vote to keep the system as is because I believe it works generally. I’m willing to vote for progress but only without system breaking regression, sorry about that

No. First figure out how to keep dangerous criminals off the street pre-trial. Then let’s talk. Cash bail is regressive and often unjust, I’m not willing to correct this injustice without a viable alternative to simply allowing dangerous pe

I’ll try. I’m self taught and spent years learning enough to convince an employer to pay me more than an entry level wage because I was career changing in midlife with a family to support and couldn’t afford to take a pay reduction to switc

I’m surprised that he isn’t wealthy on the back of his world famous novels, and also why some of his novels haven’t been brought to cinema. Snow Crash would make a good film in the Internet age. Perhaps, this essay is old though, and by now

4$ a pound, how do you intend to scale, assuming that a winery would only be interested in large allotments. I would suspect that greenhouse based operation in wine country would be far more expensive to main than the standard vineyard. Hav

This is a nice and more technically accurate definition but i don’t believe it’s at all found in the wild, which mitigates its usefulness. I think the bound in the common usage is in the sense of destination rather than limit, ie, bound for

I dunno, it takes a lot more than a fistfight to get put in prison for violent offense. Sure people can change but only a solid work history or trusted recommendation can give you any real confidence. You may have to fire this person, or t

I’ll hazard that this class of decision is entirely because enterprise success is determined by movement of the share price which requires continuous growth. It’s not enough to have a wildly successful product and a wildly successful compan

I too wish gp would elaborate. I don’t know what caused the change but it’s clear to me that companies wishing to choose hires now with no qualifications other than teachability would have a very difficult time dealing with diversity issues

Has any major city ever drastically cut spending to address a secular trending down of tax revenue? Honest question, cause as far as I can tell modern cities just keep spending until they literally can’t at which point the city is long ago

Pretty groundbreaking for them as a company. It’s not a core competency but they can certainly throw enough money at the problem to get it right. This will be the first major execution test since jobs. It’s definitely possible this flames o
