I agree as well with google. When google first showed up, it was a breakthrough since the quality of the results were so good compared to what we are used to. Fast forward to today - more data, more websites and so on has resulted in new pr

Please do. I am also working on an edtech project and would love to integrate this into my courses.

Curious, what exactly stops these rich families from simply moving their wealth off shore? I'm sure there are many other countries that would bend over backwards to have these uber rich families living in their country instead of the U

Democrats supposedly claim to want to "tax the rich" and give people social welfare programs. Of course at the same time democrats have been well known for corruption (see city of Chicago as an example) so I think their talk is ra

Money is simply a tool used to facilitate the transfer of goods/services among people. You can use cryptocurrencies just as well or you can use direct barter but a common-use currency provides benefits that people enjoy.

Labor is not valued based on the "benefits to society" it provides. It is valued based on supply and demand. The low paid jobs are jobs that basically anyone can do with minimal education or on the job training. If those jobs were

Service will degrade too. "Your driver will be here in 45 minutes" type of stuff going forward. A huge incentive of using uber/lyft was that in major cities you could literally be picked up in a few minutes of requesting the

Thoughts on speculation that this will cause drunk driving deaths to increase?

The issue that is causing the problems is peak demand hits around 5:30 pm....exactly at the same time when solar supply is dropping rapidly. We need natural gas peaker plants that basically fire up to bridge the gap during the night. Every

They retired base load power (nuclear) and didn't replace it with other power sources that can provide base load. Instead everyone pushed for renewable only and opposed the natural gas power stations. Build 5,000 MW of natural gas peak

Moved to Reno, NV. Already sold all my property in the bay area and went back to renting. No state income tax in NV! and we have lake tahoe close by. I sold my property because I'm figuring that the bay area is going to be less appeali

The push by people who identify as "conservative" to move to unconventional social media platforms. Parler being used to replace twitter. BitChute being used to replace Youtube. Gab being used to replace Facebook and so on. Seems

It isn't like 2000 though. These tech IPOs are real companies, with real products, real customers and real businesses. The 2000s had companies going public that were just based on an IDEA. Literally...."we're raising funds in

I wouldn't buy into this IPO. The problem is rackspace doesn't really have much of a moat and the space is highly competitive.

Probably not. Gen Z is already addicted to it. They like it more than all other social media apps from what I've seen.

Wouldn't be surprised if Google, Facebook, or Microsoft suddenly come out with a competing app. Didn't google have one that they shut down recently?

Advertisers just go to where the eye balls are at. Facebook has a good moat but places like reddit and twitter don't. There are already clones for both twitter and reddit. Some communities have left reddit and started their own standal

Yup, this is true. Someone else's banner just shows up instead of the "boycotting" brand.

It is possible but also in the early writings of Satoshi, he always stressed the importance of keeping your key and keeping it private.

Bitcoin isn't good for small transactions obviously. That's why there are other cryptos invented that have next to zero transaction fees.

The risk of doing that is if an authoritarian regime gains power then they can effectively black list you from the financial system. This is absolutely an issue in certain countries.

Same here. When I see police, I just think, don't go near them or bother them at all. I actively avoid police if I can unless there are a bunch of other people around (concert, sporting event etc.). The fear I think is more along the l

Because you need to qualify for margin and the person who lent you the money agreed to lend it to you knowing that you could BK it. With student loans, the student usually doesn't have an income or assets so there needs to be more ince

I think the problem (from my experience as a 30 year old man) is that young men absolutely struggle to find women that are in their age range. Young women often go after older men, with established careers and incomes. If young women do dat

Most men are going for the 18-25 year old group simply as a matter of preference. We aren't interested in women that are "waiting to lower their standards". So as a man, you figure out what that age group wants and then you t

Would it be news to you that most men want to have sex with women they seen as attractive? The characteristics are clear from biological studies - skinny, signs of youth, signs of femininity etc. Blonde hair is a sign of youthfulness that&#

There are no armed guards. Some nut jobs did go there with guns but they didn't do anything. The current state of it...think of it like kids hanging out at the mall - skateboarding, socializing, eating and then they go home at night.
