Buy Bitcoin, but Gold is better. The problem with Bitcoin is that the US could make it illegal for Bitcoin to be converted into US currency. That would drive Bitcoin prices down. The US doesn’t have as many ways to manipulate gold prices.

I hire for two primary characteristics: 1) smart 2) gets things gone Everything else can be trained. Although Honesty/Character are critical, it’s hard to assess in an interview.

Agreed. If you look at the Biggest Loser Study, their metabolism was horrible afterwards. They all ballooned back up. Wish they would have published thyroid test results, as I suspect the participants had wonky thyroids. There’s some diet d

I thought about this exact product a few years ago. Primarily for when I had to take corporate training - just search for whatever keyword they were quizzing on, and immediately find the relevant video/text, and replay your screen from

I’ve read there’s a push to legalize cocaine. I’m willing to make Universal Paperclips illegal in exchange for cocaine legalization. Overall harm reduction.

I strongly disagree. If Russia was destroying a U.S. unmanned ship in international waters, it’s identical. That would not be allowed. Neither should this. Fear of repercussions is the only thing which keeps Russia from challenging the US.

The US should treat the satellites just as if they were US flagged merchant ships. Anything less emboldens Russia.

No, but if you say, hey, we’re all going to burn down the store if you down pay us $20k more… that’s more like what a union is threatening. There’s practically no limit on what a union can extort from a company. If a company invests in capi

I’m a fan of UBI, only if coupled with the elimination of minimum wage rules. If UBI was high enough, and only eligible to US citizens, then non-citizens would have significant difficulty competing against the US citizens willing to sell th

Starbucks is not a coal mine. They’re located on street corners with other restaurants, and the employees can freely move from one unskilled role to the next. Unionization exists solely to extract additional wages that wouldn’t have been gi

Have you tried a PianoDisc Quiet system on a baby grand with a Renner action? The built in samples are reasonable, but you can always output to PianoTeq for higher quality. I find it an optimal combination. Of course, the space and cost req
