It isn't the perfect solution, but fixing our education system is going to be much harder to accomplish especially with so many colleges being for profit. It won't be a single thing that fixes it and will instead be multiple thing

Thank you! you have said it the best way that I have seen yet. No one is talking about removing personal responsibility. However when a pattern has emerged we have to look at how we got here in the first place and realize that there is like

Many of us had it drilled into our heads that the only way to succeed in life was to take out a big loan and go to college. By the government. Also, it is kinda ridiculous that at 18 years old it is completely fine that I can take out an al

Congrats. You’re were out of debt before this. And you’re still out of debt now. How about we let others at least not be underwater so the too can be out of student loan debt. Which if you bothered to read it is the focus this time around.

I would love to buy a place, my rent is well above what I could expect to pay for a mortgage in the same area (for likely a nicer place). But rent around here being so high stands in the way of saving enough for a decent downpayment. I do k

It very well could be price fixing based on much of what has been talked about over the last several months about this. If RealPages is managing all of these prices for properties in a given area they are in a position to inflate prices gra

I feel like Boston has had similar, we have contracts with companies to complete a thing by a specific time, they don't but we are stuck paying them even more to complete a project so it ends up being over budget, late, and possibly no

The problem is we have been saying there is going to be a crash for years. But I don't know if there will be until the supply problem is fixed in big cities. Big dense towers are only going to go up so quick and until then, what is goi

Stocks makes sense with that being a core part of how that market is supposed to work in the first place. Rent prices changing daily really doesn't make a ton of sense, there isn't really a valid reason for it except for an algori

I love my Mac and I constantly wish that it could be my gaming PC. But Valve could ditch Mac and it would barely be noticeable. Plus apple showed off tech similar to proton for Mac last year. An ARM steam deck sounds interesting, but it wou

It’s honestly meaningless until the entire Windows market moves over, which I doubt gaming will anytime soon. Apples transition worked since they could force it. Developers targeting Mac users had to work on Arm optimized versions or be stu

It is still important news, however it seems to me this shouldn't be grouped into the same discussion as all of the other tech layoffs since this was tied to a canceled project. Especially given that the car project was apparently 2000

I think yes and no. I think the hype itself is a lot of the same hype that we saw for crypto. Trying to find anywhere it can be shoved and just using "AI" having a ton of market power even if what is being done makes zero sense. H

I would buy this argument until they advertise it. Everyone knows what the lottery is, there is basically zero reason to do any advertising for it. Advertising it is encouraging addictive behavior. I think it is fine that the state runs it,
