This is the risk with government granted corporate licences. Only once I spent 200$ on a no name company. Product was warranty for 3 years. I was still skeptical but it had lots of good reviews and it was relatively affordable. Nothing life

Sure bankruptcy exists, but that doesn't apply to big companies. Not sure a regulation can even fix that.

I've been BamboGoogled Enough to be done with this company. On one hand Google is the lesser evil between M$ and Apple. But they are not reliable. Not sure if anything in tech is really good long term unless you DIY. Not sure how I can

You don't need to get the government involved. That destroys small business. You can simply put a guaranteed to last/warranty timer on it. Heck when we were doing our IOT device we left an offline mode.

Bitcoin is a Hedge against government inflation and unlike gold, nuclear chemistry proof. The rest of the coins... Not really. Maybe privacy coins might be useful.

Orbit isn't hard. The hard part is landing something that can later return to space. That said, you can't trust anything Elon says.

Really? What's wrong with admitting you were wrong, and that was a discovery in its own? I recently made an error regarding essential amino acids, and it only improved the quality of suggested foods. Everyone wins. (Although you still

But you can say the same about civil engineering. We don't know about macro effects until it's too late.

I definitely recommend Physical Therapy for that. They are Doctors but not MDs, they don't prescribe. They teach exercises, stretches and do massage and that crack that chiropractors do. Physical Therapy is really what I need most the

Mental health Tangent- I wonder how far the American Medical Association/physicians have set back medical discoveries. The traditional solution is Drugs. Some recommend exercise (although a friend recently couldn't get a prescript

This is the first person/company that actually has a realistic (still optimistic) Coronavirus timeline. Prior to this, everyone had unrealistic "fall 2020", then pushed to "January 2021". This still assumes a vaccin

This is not relevant to the question asked since it's about vegetarians who gave eggs and milk.

Similar to research fraud, I want the medical field examined for anti-science fraud. I caught my Physician recommending an expensive and dangerous surgery that could be done by a dentist or surgeon. I asked if there was data, she said yes.

My guess is the education bubble. Loans are subsidized, universities have bigger budgets and want more studies done.

If that stock takes a tumble, you can bet their marketing is going to drop the privacy branding. Everyone knows their customers are highly susceptible to marketing, it would be a gold mine.

Tangent question- any nutrients or minerals that only come from meat? (Vegetarian that eats eggs and milk here) I've heard of a few, but from research they aren't actually necessary or can be metabolized. I do food cost studies an

Reminds me of Apple and Amazon. These gatekeepers flexing should be a huge red flag, akin to the BP oil spill in the tech world. This might be the last straw for me to delete my Facebook. I would be a bad capitalist if I didn't.

My annoyance is that we aren't taught about alcoholism or that alcohol (and caffeine) are drugs. Once your brain chemistry is changed, it takes significant pain to get it back. And according to the book Power of Habit, it never goes aw
