Is it feasible to create a corporate structure that would encourage it to act with the public interest in mind? Are there any known patterns, research, or tries? My very ill-informed mind is thinking of a parent-child structure where the pa

I'm personally glad the story made to the front page again as I find it very relevant today and I've never read it before.

Junk food will make you full too, but over time make you sick. I fear you're substituting real human connection with cheap alternatives. Cooking healthy food can be annoying and it often makes a mess, but is necessary in the long run.

The problem with this approach might be that it's not really teaching them to control their own urges. My parents used to limit my gaming to 2 hours a week, and I abided by that rule faithfully until I got old enough. Then I started pl

This is simply not true. The dashcam footage released by Tempe police does not depict the driving conditions at the site of the accident accurately at all. Check out [1] for the actual driving conditions at night. I'm not usually the o
