Let's be real, the actual money paid out will be much less, and over a long period of time most likely. The number needs to be big enough to make other companies do everything they can to not let this kind of stuff happen. In current s

Any breaking of the law in regards to children needs to absolutely incinerate the offending party, this fine seems like a drop in the bucket. Kids these days are bombarded by terrible industry practices because companies know if they can ge

Neopets was one of my first exposures to web development, in the sense that you could customize your guild home page in a pretty open ended way using HTML and CSS. It felt like simpler times back then haha.

This is assuming that the feature set of the car is free, and then you unlock features as you subscribe to them. I could be wrong, but BMW is probably not selling you the heated seats model at the same price as the base model(again, could b

Craigslist is about as good of an "ad-free" marketplace as you can get, there are no sponsored posts, external advertisers, bad postings can be flagged for removal, etc. I think we both know what "there are no ads" means

Supply and demand is a part of the free market philosophy, and it also exists in non-capitalist ideologies. What a free market is supposed to do is well understood and studied...what it actually does with the addition of caveats such as pol

Then we basically have to throw the definition of any abstract idea out the window, or put an asterisk next to it with every possible caveat. Of course the implementation of a free market is not the same as the perfect concept of it becau

As if equity is the only possible way to get rich. Sam has plenty of money, his next goal is likely an indirect accumulation of power, for better or for worse.

An efficient allocation of attention would be the exact opposite of the goal of basically any social media company(or any attention based company). The problem of attention allocation comes down to the individual deciding not to participate

Because liquidity is a term for assets such as stocks, and related to how quickly one can liquidate something. It has nothing to do with labor. What you may be thinking of is a “fluid market”, which corresponds to how loose or tight a lab

A calorie is not indicative of nutrition. I can eat 10 pop tarts a day for a few bucks but it has little to no nutritional value.

Almost nothing in tennis has to do with strength, quite the opposite. I can see definitely see more tall players become better with movement, ground strokes, and volleys(Medvedev, Zverev). Tall players still get injured a ton, but science i

Dimitrovs game is beautiful, hence why he was called Baby Fed, but I think his mental game has never quite been there. Stan is a monster!

Your first statement makes no sense in regards to what I said. I particularly said economic growth would be fine if it was gone about in sustainable ways. What does 'current state without growth mean'? The current state has grow

The planet should be able to handle a lot more economic growth if gone about a different way, and if there is a more even distribution of wealth(I am not against billionaires per se but a lot can be done for the lower 50%). If 250 years aft

In 2022 only about 12% of those employed in the US were part of a union...so you are pretty far off from being the only one not 'gaining benefits'.
