Also, Conventional weapons take great effort. One guy in N Korea with a nuclear weapon at his disposal vs Cuba and no nuclear weapon and we can see how difficult it is to imagine Cuba posing a real destabilizing threat vs N Korea. W/o

Maybe one of the Baltics. Although Russia might take grave exception that that prop.

This is similar to this one for SF http://www.oldsf.org/ Looks like the NYC one has more coverage though.

I'd also lean towards your hypothesis since there are many, many contraceptive and anti-STD choices -more than used to be available to other gens.

Too bad Druva does not offer a home product. I believe C42 allows reselling of their product. So, someone could buy in bulk from C42 and turn around and offer the same product to end users (at some markup). The issue would be moving the dat

I mean, the argument is ridiculous. They are blaming people who own houses for not selling houses. Build more houses --simple. Allow development. What's the next headline? Young people without real-estate holdings are first time b

I think hustle/hustling has some context: Street hustler is one thing. Hustler the mag was another. Hustle to get ahead is yet another. So same word or root word in different syntactical contexts can have somewhat different meanings.

I think we should recognize that SF and Brisbane are not in the same league. Anything Brisbane would build would be a drop in the bucket. SF can potentially add a hundred thousand units --two hundred thousand units, no problem without cha

But why put the onus on a small village when the city of SF itself is unwilling to allow normal city development & construction. If anyone are assholes, it's the city of SF itself --who, by the way, typically rally behind "we

Maybe it's more due to the potential of leveraging network effects and becoming the predominant player in this sphere. They can leverage that to add on al kinds of add-on services (handyman/woman, decorators, etc. and extract som

To me it looks more like one of the old Land Rover series I(1). Boxy and high perched. Hopefully much more reliable than the Land Rovers. It's actually got aluminum skin like the orig Land Rovers. (1) https://en.wikipedia.or

I don't think they'd build the whole or even the majority underground --it's super costly and trench and cover tunneling still needs access to ground level.

I'll be reservedly optimistic about this. Besides money, right of way is going to have to be an issue. Hope DoT does all it can without having to get into eminent domain much. All the best, and please make up all the way to Boston.

Don't Drug MFGs know this and are allowed to "donate" to weak economies.

Can they do something similar for ticks. Ticks seem to be picking up steam as a disease vector spreading more than just Lime disease, as if that were not enough.

My experience in Germany was, as a ped, that people re rigid about crosswalks (only during green and within the marked crosswalk), else you risk getting looked askance. I learned to obey the crosswalk signals (rather than take them more as

Do you mean people buying phones, or do you mean some enterprises (and govt's like India) weary of their Firmware backdoors?

I think they have to be considered with respect to people's relative purchasing power. Ensure that if the velocity of money goes down that people's relative purchasing power remains equivalent. In other words, if making things mo

People were rightfully concerned about the lack of reciprocal trade. While true American cars would not attract much of a market in Japan (due to a few issues like gas consumption, size, etc.) the market was not as open to US products as t

I think the Answer is yes. We had no issue with Nokia or Toyota. We consume Anime. Lots of companies use Kaspersky despite apparent ties to RU intelligence services. There is some talk of the DoD pulling out from a contract --but that&#x27

This is true, but should still result in lower TCO. Lower TCO means lower velocity of money.

Advertising, including Google, will feel the effect of a slower purchasing cycle. Fewer designers (in all industries) to design a lower volume of products. Less money to promote fewer items being sold. On the flipside, larger per-item tr

A continuous back-up system should be enough --as long as it doesn't have the smarts to reset the encryption pwd on the backup set.

The state should find a new scientific threshold to use before issuing these warnings. The items added are so extensive that it renders the designation almost meaningless. You become desensitized to these things. Why lump wine in with som

People in the Sahara (and other deserts) dressed for the weather. It's not comfortable by modern standards, but people were able to bear it with the right clothing to keep the outside heat out.

How does this differentiate from the offerings of other clothiers like TrunkClub (which is a Nordstrom's acquisition)? Perhaps because it's not a subscription model in the way TC works, people feel less pressure to keep something?

From what I've heard/read it was basically a play against cannibalization of the mp3 player market by proto smartphones. There were two camps, Steve's which wanted a sleek new form factor without physical keyboard (touch inp
