Shouldn't Z be greater than 1? Or else you're guaranteed screwed when the market turns. But then I guess that's what happened here.

Starting an implication with “if no action is taken after 100,000 deaths” is the same as “if false” — you can put anything in the “then” and have the statement be logically sound - that doesn’t mean it’s in any way useful. End of the day th

The place I’m applying simply lists: “Software Development (all levels)” and is an open call for engineers. Salary obviously will depend on experience and interview performance. I don’t see why that’s an issue, a corporatized version of thi

Folks abuse drugs right on the street in SF. I don’t see why they’d prefer to take up a stall, where you’re much more likely to get noticed, complained about, and “handled”. If not a doggy bag supply outside locked bathrooms, a roomful of t
