Say I die and the state wants to decide what to do with my million-acre farm. They either have to give it to one person, split it up amongst multiple people, or run it themselves. If they do the first, the headline is unaffected, if they d

What place did you find? (Or how did you find it, if you would rather not divulge names) I will be looking to go from full time to part time in s couple of years.

Pragmatically, the reason I would want municipal broadband is because it would be less expensive than Comcast or whatever private provider, right? But would it be? I've used various of the major cable internet providers over the years

Most programmers don't spend any amount of time on side projects. Maybe the all, like me, weakly aspire to, though.

Stop all use of these sites for a month. See if other "distractions" take their place. If no, then you're just addicted to social media and hopefully that month will cure you. If yes, you're probably burnt out and need t

I always thought the economic moat was supposed to be some feat of R&D that is hard to replicate. Like figuring out how to make an AI that functions as a human-quality call center representative. It's not that there's a netwo

I want my child to have as much autonomy as possible early on. Like before the age of 10 if she can ride her bike across town to her friends house or get on a bus to the mall or playground or library, I will be very happy. The the automobi

What do Finnish parents do if they disagree fundamentally with the educational approach of the system (like they want to do Montessori or whatever). Is there homeschooling? Does everyone have to just suck it up and use the one public schoo

I don't like the lottery because it inhibits life planning. I'm not going to move near a charter school based on a 1/2 chance that my kid will get into the school. But I can shop around different zip codes, move to a house

How do you know that? I toured the local vocational high school when I was in seventh grade and, at least from my naive point if view it seemed legit, with students spending something like a third of their time studying HVAC or whatever.

Last year I walked into a McDonald's at 8am and a bunch of old white guys seemed to be using the place as just such a venue.

What is the nature of that horrible detriment to society? There are myriad ways that humans tend to make bad decisions in the course of modern life. Psychology and evolutionary biology currently provide the best answer to "why".

Then startup I worked for used Gusto and then later Sequoia One for payroll. I'd be interested to know what the big remote companies like Elastic do.

I don't think it really hurts anyone that investors are increasingly interested in backing R&D for Zika vaccines or electric cars.

Which ones, though? I can imagine a utopian city where everyone lives in dorms and uses public dining and bath facilities. In that thought experiment, it's hard to feel like anyone's rights are being trampled. And it's not c

Based on what do you think that? You can be happy, healthy, and safe, even if you have to share a kitchen and bathroom. Single-resident dwellings are the exception throughout human history. Not that I necessarily disagree with you - I&#x27

I tend to agree, but this assumes that the thing preserved will be valued going forward. If someone's fundament values are not such that they see any benefit in preservation of an old statehouse or whatever, this won't be a compe

I suppose that reporting does happen or at least could be made to happen under the new system. I used to make $80k per year in salary(which is far less than most of the top decile in the USA) and in one of those years had over $10k in capit

So any income other than as a W-2 employee doesn't count influence your credit? This includes capital gains, rent collected from tenants, AdSense revenue. The right way to handle this stuff is not immediately obvious to me.
