The lesson, I guess, is that if you print money from some other dominant business unit, you don't have to have any other good ideas or execution.

1) Bulbs let renters have adjustable lights without having to rewire a house they don't own. That's 1/3rd of the market. 2) Replacing one bulb every few years is much less time/money than a wiring project IMO.

That makes a lot of sense to me. On average, the specific kind of love and care a parent provides to their child is a one way street, meant to be paid forward. Of course care of an elderly parent can reverse this relationship, but that&#x27

I haven't heard any stories about entire death certificates being fabricated.....you'd either have hundreds of living people who were considered dead by the state, or you'd have entirely fabricated people showing up as "

The US meeting date is based on an arbitrary scheduling rule saying meetings like this must take place 15 days after request, or something to that effect. The FDA itself closely inspects data throughout the phase 3 trials so this review sho

I wouldn't be surprised if a small part of the story is just that you only hear about big bumps from colleagues when they leave. I've gotten 20-30% raises before but I'm not going to go around and tell people that at my curre

Well, the graph in the article says 3600 men for 20 years. 900 to lift the stones 900 to place and finish them (horizontal movement?) 1500 to cut the stone 3300 design/support (logistics?) The details are below the fold.

I'd recommend reading some of the explanations given by Sean Carroll on the subject. https://www.preposterousuniverse.com/ ....and I didn't realize that Sean Carroll actually wrote this article! Still, he does som

Or, perhaps, this article is naive and the market realizes that there are some unseen costs associated with solar investment. Not to mention the opportunity cost of the capital needed to convert to another type of energy infrastructure.

Unlafwul in no way implies evil. For every reason that AirBnB is "evil" for breaking the law, you could come up with a reason that the law is "evil" for existing in the first place.

It would be interesting to see cost of living adjustments for properly priced carbon. Does $2.00 extra per gallon of gas push costs high enough to promote density?

You can certainly listen to audiobooks, music or podcasts in a car. You can also have a private conversation with the passenger. Driving is by no means "lost time" for many people.
