Of course! The shadow from the blimp might impact the habitat of an endangered newt living in the now-wetland. I mean, it might not, but you won't know until the environmental impact assessment is complete.

I don't think opposing ideas cancel each other out, like so much electrical charge. The more opposing ideas on a platform, the more ideas are spread, tested, strengthened, weakened, and grown. An echo chamber is where ideas go to die.

Right. In my opinion, the 'fair' and 'simple' thing to do would be to eliminate the estate tax, and the step-up basis. Then there would be no loop hole to borrow against unrealized gains (and no real point to do so), whi

The actual loophole is the step-up basis for inheritance. This allows you to never realize gains, living off loans against them. Then, when you die, your heirs inherit the appeciated assets, and the liabilities. But, their cost basis for th

If you were a teacher, you would also have received mandatory-reporter training, so there would be even less gray area as to what to do next. But your intuition is pretty much spot-on with the training I have received.

The teacher is absolutely going to be reporting it to the police, no matter what else they do. Teachers are mandatory repirters-- if they see anything that could indicate a child is being abused they must report it. The police and social se

There are definitely a good number of small businesses around me (cafes, and similar places) that offer a cash discount. They don't have a sign offering it, but when I pull out cash, they revise the price down.

My 2 yo son and I walked into a playground in SF once and I remember these two moms (or nannies) giving me the nastiest look. I started to wonder if they could even see my son (I had recently re-watched The Sixth Sense).

This is great. Having the engineers who built the thing be the same people who respond to pages is a great way to incentivize robust systems. If you built it, you likely know how to fix it better than anyone else, and if you don't want
