I love yerba mate. My family traveled to Argentina when I was a kid and I remember we were delayed for about 4 hours before our flight back home late in the night. I kept making myself yerba mate teas while the lounge had the movie Screamer

Because they don't want people price shopping for everything. If their margins are thin on 3 items and high on one, they want buyers to buy all 4, not to buy the 3 razor-margin items and the 4th elsewhere.

I've lived in the Bay Area all my life, was a baby when Loma Prieta hit. I had scarcely felt an earthquake in my life except for a few occasions where I had to ask people nearby 'was that just an earthquake?'. A month or two

I've always wondered why it wasn't cheaper to do take out than eat at a restaurant. I'm not taking up a parking space, table, using facilities, or taking up as much of the employees time but I still incur that ov

This is fantastic news. I think there is definite potential in both the token itself (given that it holds about a billion dollars now) and in the language backing it.
