That's certainly an issue, but your demand stifles any effort to learn more by saying that you have to study "generational effects" (what, maybe a 50 year study before you can learn anything). Which will just be followed up

That's not the issue, really. The issue is whether the program has access to itself as input. This one does, so it's not a quine. But it's cool.

Nice clear presentation. I'm convinced.

Beware, asking for stock instead of options can be worse . If you are granted stock, you are being given something of value, and you must pay taxes as if it was income on the "fair value" (which, admittedly, may be low). If you

I'd love to see a nicely curated "voice recognition benchmark" to assess claims like this. Do you know of one?

I don't care about the label, I care for a fair comparison of the question, "Would Universities be better off with a simple mix of index funds or using their current approach?" To answer that question, you'd like to fig

I wonder if the returns quoted for endowments properly subtract out the salaries, build space, etc for the employees of the institution with the endowment, or just the explicit costs from outside management? (See my clarification below. I&

His point is precisely that segregation laws and zoning laws do the same thing, so he's trying to use language that makes that obvious. It's not a leap really, right? To "segregate" things is almost synonymous with put

It's important that drivers be reasonably competent too, and so we have a licensing program. But it is cheap and quick. (Where "quick" might mean a long line at the DMV, but not an apprenticeship.)

Are you contending that Android Wear watching can't keep time? I'm willing to listen if you have any evidence, but that sounds like an extraordinary claim.

Right. I was skeptical in first few paragraphs, since students' teaching assessments do have their flaws. But if there was a statistically significant improvement in his students performance in later classes, then the man's doing

If your application came across at all like your post, it's pretty clear why it wasn't strongly considered.

"no-brainer people will start carpooling more" ? I don't think people buying Teslas will start carpooling any time soon.

Inside? I watched the presentation, and it didn't seem like the seats folded forward. Do they? Now that I think about it, I haven't even seen the back open. Why can't I find pictures from the back, with the gate open?

It might, since I think moving heavy objects is pure drag on a ICE vehicle, but if you have regenerative braking, you get some of the extra effort you put in, back out. That's an advantage many subways have by using electrical power.

I think, but I'm not sure, that you're overstating the complication. Looking at your four steps: 1. Everyone should have two credit cards. You don't want a single point of failure (mistaken fraud freeze, for example.) 2. You

Cars can drive autonomously, but they can't sense a spill?

I agree there's a problem here, but the trend you point out is probably breakeven with respect to gas/electric. Many people how move into a dense city have no car at all. (Those who do have more money and often garage their car,

I think it could be either way, but many object to the fact that it is both. In other words, corporate tax is seen as double taxation, since the earnings (after taxes) are then passed on to shareholders, who pay tax on it again. I could se

Then assembly is more flexible than your favorite high-level language? It's true that you can, by definition, do more with low-level access. And I suppose that's one definition of "flexibility". But I think most develop

Agreed. The reality is that the offer was probably still on the table in roughly the same form. After the Olympics, he could had the offer examined, weighed his options, and had pretty much the same starting point as Mayweather. I won&#x27

Because sometimes you must use spaces, because you are indenting a continuation line that should be indented to an exact spot with respect to the previous line (you're in the middle of an expression, you want to be at the start of an

There are several electric motorcycles that look pretty good. Google around. I forget which I thought were best (and I'm not knowledgable enough about "normal" bikes to be a great resource anyway).

With the caveat that if your job does any 401k matching, you should take advantage of it. Automatic 100% return is hard to beat. (And then if you switch jobs, roll it over into a Vanguard IRA.)

That all sounds reasonable. But I have to believe it's completely wrong. Because it's the same sort of "reasonable" that says every level of technology is pretty much all you need. That is finally (decades later) pret

Not sure where I side in the larger debate, but on this point it's perfectly plausible that Buffett (correctly) guessed that the banks were safer than they might appear. He may have believed a bailout would be inevitable if things went

Right. Consider partnering with rental car sites. If you can get a commission from several different ones, then let me add the closest one to my guide book, everybody wins.
