Can someone explain to me why a company would be priced below its "fundamentals"?

Match according to spring count and type. The profit margin at a place like Mattress Firm is ~50%. They are hungry for a sale and will bid for your purchase.

After developing neck+back pain and doing many hours of research this is the solution I arrived at as well. I use an Ikea firm foam bed with a 2.5" memory foam on top. This ends up giving the support of a "medium-firm" many doctors advoca

Your point is taken but I don't think OP meant sentients is literally magic but that it is essentially a blackbox system to our constructs.

It's called the "hard problem" of consciousness. In theory, you can map causation from particle-wave interactions to experiential states but that doesn't provide an explanatory ontology. It's a matter of having a valid data type. No data

Something to keep in mind when the blogosphere lights up about how STEM is a "boy's club". It's not that there isn't merit to gender issues in STEM. It's that the dialogue is manufactured by people whose goals aren't egalitarian. If you

This is a good idea but why the limit of 30 or strict requirements? It's not like this program using up limited school resources like Flashpoint.

Your statement is more sensible and on the fence. She's implying men are the root of women's problems in tech. That there is a conspiracy to marginalize. Women have broken into countless so-called "boys clubs". Doctors, lawyers, marketin

Proof? Some research suggests women are turned off from the "hard" sciences before they reach high school. It's likely a factor but you're putting the cart before the horse.

>Just because people with axes to grind can use gender as a smear (an inept one, in this case) to paint someone as a sexist, doesn't make it right to imply we as males are somehow being attacked or victimized, or could be in the future.

I agree with your sentiment about what feminism is at its best but you're sugar coating the historical facts. 2nd wave feminism approaches gender roles as a zero sum game. They systematically marginalize any perspective on males that does

That was very much the goal of "Systems Theory"[1]. The problem is it's focused on "natural systems" with quantitative relationships. The work has fallen short in capturing phenomenological relationships. I think Wilber's AQAL ontology co

As a Buddhist maybe not. Buddhism and Enlightenment Era ideology are both anchored in the idea of the "self". There's a great synergy between the two. To get what I mean look at the former CEO of Whole Foods, John Mackey. The staunchest
