Yea I have a hard time distinguishing focusing on return vs focusing on product. They’re complimentary, not mutually exclusive. I hope those implementing my investments are focused on both.

I think they were responding to the general claim that clinical trials can’t be faked, not the specific one from the article.

I think it’s hard to generalize this. I would get sick not working all the time. I love it, and while the domains might change, the amount of work likely wouldn’t change based on the amount of success.

What about the term “Cato”, is that still used? I think its meaning is limited to take off.

The article starts with a scenario from commercial construction in which pay to workers was delayed at times and some ultimately never collected. The commercial construction industry can be a risky environment. I spent some time in this sup

Aside from the correlation of the sponges' state changes and industrialization being in the same general time period, is there a causal link in the study? This is the part I struggle with when I think of the massive temperature and sea

I think that's more of a function of the relative difference between the sizes of your vehicle and the other vehicle, not the absolute size of the other vehicle. The relative size is a big factor in why mixing bikes with cars is so dea

I worked on a solar project a number of years back that was one of the first that was actually independently financially sustainable. It was in west Texas in an area that had a highly distributed population and very hot summers. So the exis

Yea, it's time for this whole NAR thing to be disassembled. It's unfortunate how much we undervalue the impact of collusion on the health of a free market. And worse, how out in the open and right in front of everyone this was. Th

I know that constitutional law is complex and most certainly above my pay grade, but from a fundamental human perspective, that this is even a question in a modern liberal society sends shivers up my spine.

I’ve always wondered why, if we can safely propel hundreds of people in an aluminum tube, 35k feet in the air, at hundreds of miles per hour ground speed, thousands of time day in and day out - why is safely generating power from nuclear so

Having been involved in commercial construction in the late 90s, OSHA had a lot of regulation and focus on masons - especially cutting concrete block. It’s surprising that 25 years later that understanding of the problem didn’t translate to

There’s plenty of options in America too - lots of low and no sugar brands. The comments do seem indicate otherwise. Maybe by “Breakfast cereal” people assume only Frosted Flakes and Fruit Loops and only from mainstream outlets like Kroger
