Absolutely my finding as well. On those days I'm tired I just get sucked in for hours. I guess I should pick up an easy to read novel on those days.

I'm considering writing a plugin which, much like an ad-blocker, removes click bait links. There would be various black lists one could use. Any feedback on implementation appreciated.

Then instead of feeling bad that others got a benefit you didn't, perhaps be happy your college education was much, much less expensive than those that came after you.

So, let's see, if you were a black person in 1863 who'd been enslaved but bought your freedom prior to the Emacipation Proclamation, you'd resent the Emancipation Proclamation since from then on other wouldn't have to bu

Okay, yes, but then everyone else is paying that too. I.e. as a society we're all chipping in to create a good. The fact is, the forgiveness of student loans is overall a good thing. Because of timing you didn't get to participate

I absolutely understand the sentiment, but if there is legislation to forgive student loans it will not have actually hurt you. In other words, such anger at the forgiveness of student loans really just comes down to envy - namely that othe

Oh no. This is going to get picked up by one of those nutbag spiritual clickbait sites and tomorrow my girlfriend is going to tell me about an amazing discovery about crystals which can be used to power a time travel device.

A real estate agent explained to me that the reason for this is to keep the monthly rent as high as possible on rent stabilized apartments. Since on rent stabilized apartments there is a maximum percent a landlord can raise the rent annuall

Pretty off topic, but is Chris O'Neill huge? Or did they choose very small people to flank him in the photo for the article?

I wonder how this will affect crime. With a driverless car, if someone wanted to hold you up, all they have to do is walk in front of the car, which will then obediently stop.

But you don't need computer science to get and perform very well in a programming job. I'm a sample size of one, but I never had any formal comp-sci education and only after about a decade in the industry did I go back and teach m

This is not nearly enough evidence to conclude that EMH is invalid. Yes, it's not perfect, but to conclude from this evidence that dividends are not priced into the price of a stock is... well, it's not sound reasoning.

You're talking about two different things: Stock picking and whether dividends are priced in. Because stock picking works for you (let's ignore the sample size issue), doesn't mean dividends aren't priced in.

Dividend stocks are not a good way to have passive income. The benefit of the dividend is already priced into the stock, so they are no better than any other stock. Prefer, rather, to just go for good stocks and not worry about the dividend

Spread FB to everyone so he can deliver news in headlines absent of nuance with the effect of reinforcing existing held beliefs, strengthening conspiracy theories, and increasing polarization and radicalism. Thanks Mark! Glad your hot or no

I don't mean this flippantly, but perhaps, at least unconsciously, for reputation or glory or whatever. If you just give a chunk of cash to an existing study you don't get, say, glowing articles written about you.

The scary thing is that banks actually sponsor investing games to be taught in schools, encouraging crappy habits like stock picking and trusting your gut and such.
