   great question! profit margins have indeed been rising significantly over the past few decades, from around 5% to 12% just since the mid-90s -- https://www.yardeni.com/pub/sp500margin.pdf

   Is there an actual source for this logic? Not a huge fan of arguments-via-intuition.

   > congresspeople sleep in their office i.e. are homeless because DC rent is high any source for this? your link just mentions a representative who has bad credit, it never claims he is homeless.

   Do you think people are consistently keeping their phones for more than a decade? I get that anti-consumer vibe but this doesn't feel like a common use-case. Compare Apple to almost anyone and they stack up well.

    What are you comparing it to? Python does bug fixes for 2 years, then security updates for 5 [0]. Ubuntu LTS releases do 5 years and you have to pay to get the 10 years [1]. Apple stacks up quite well against any competition I'm aware

    Salesforce is 1/10 the size of Google. SF should have much more time for an aquisition of the same size.

    I guess "drops a bomb" is a little over the top but the rest of the title are just facts. Salesforce really did ask people to come back, and he did indeed say he doesn't work well in an office.

    As sibling comment said, I think this is bound to cause unintended side-effects. I think it would be simpler to require per-unit pricing alongside overall cost, and regulate that amount. Nothing more frustrating than seeing a per ml or oz c

    I'm personally partial to CBT. Burns' Feeling Great and Feeling Good are classics that have shown to be effective in research. Once you build familiarity with the concepts through those kinds of explanatory resources, individu

    would highly recommend Oz look for some mental health resources. nowadays there's plenty of self-study online, no insurance or expensive therapist needed. wishing him best of luck.

    I don't think most people have claimed they will commit a crime in the future. Not necessarily for climate protests, but in many cases in the US we do this same thing too. https://www.bostoncriminaldefenselawyers.com/th

    So funny to constantly see these kinds of adjectives in titles about this topic. I thought that we had models that showed us just how shitty things are going to be, no? It can't be "unprecedented" decade after decade, either
