Why did you revamp the site from its setup 4 weeks ago? Why the switch to this "options" form over the previous parimutuel betting scheme? Where are you operating out of? I'd be really careful operating this sort of thing w

The U.S. government made it illegal for individuals to hold or invest in gold for quite awhile. It didn't "kill" gold as a storage of value or as a de facto currency in many parts of the world. I think Bitcoin may be "

Sometimes you have to roll the hard six. My question is, had he gone bankrupt during that period, what would he be doing now? Agitating for the Hyperloop? Content with SolarCity? Or doing something even stranger?

This is a popular annual event in Athens, GA: http://boybutante.org/ I fail to comprehend how they've operated for 25 years without being arrested or run out of town. Or maybe your statements are just groundless.

Having been friends and intimately involved with several Catholics in Georgia I'm really curious where this statement comes from - because it's literally the first time I've heard it.

This statement is completely ridiculous. Go to Midtown Atlanta on Pride Weekend and get back to me on that opinion, if you ever escape from the traffic jam.

Nope. Actually in Athens it may be more important to be a good hipster. Mission hipsters are amateurs compared to those I knew and loved in Athens.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. I take issue with that blanket characterization. And comparing Tuscaloosa to Athens as college towns would be like examining the immediate environs of USC and extrapolating that UCLA and Westwood are not nice places to b

Athens, GA. It's a college town with a rather remarkable density of culture (music, arts, food) and a very low cost of living. I've been gone a little over a year, but you can live in very nice areas with roommates for under $40

I wish it were this simple. Having witnessed two different relatives go through the cycle of homelessness, addiction, and other assorted legal and health problems I can only say that it isn't at all straightforward. I'm not sayi

The executive branch willfully fails to enforce many laws passed by Congress as well as breaking clear restrictions on it imposed by that body and the Constitution. I would not presume to know the President's mind and will suggest tha

Exactly my first thought. Most people are buying helmets as helmets first and foremost. This is like a GPS system that weakens your seatbelt as a side-effect of installation. Also, the website doesn't instill confidence. I'd d

The number of small spaces between driveways means more motorcycle and scooter parking in a place that they are safe from being backed over by oblivious drivers. Parking a two-wheeled vehicle in a long stretch of uninterrupted street parki

I don't know for sure, but I think it was only good for an interview. There wasn't any kind of legally binding language in the contest rules, and the fact that I received a ping from Facebook recruiters despite finishing past 50t

I hope as well, but I doubt it. That kind of secret power begs to be abused. The system of checks and balances that we learned about in civics class is simply gone. A willful executive with these powers at hand can sway the outcome of an

"Google is 15 years old and has 39,000 employees (54,000 if you count Motorola), and its last major innovation — AdSense — was way back in 2003." And AdSense was largely an acquihire of Applied Semantics.

Not true. If the purchase is from an actual dealer with a Federal Firearms License then a 4473 (ATF form) must be filled out and an accompanying background check will be made. If the purchase is between two non-dealers then there is no re

If you consider what Musk's time is worth between his roles at SolarCity, SpaceX, and Tesla, it seems that he is just prioritizing his time by ending an interview like that.
