While absolutely adorable, French Bulldogs are among the most expensive dogs to care for, health-wise. They're also more expensive to purchase because of their more complicated birth.

Dog breeding and cat breeding are two very different things. Sure, you'll find cat breed loyalists, but nowhere near the numbers you'll find with dog breed enthusiasts. Most people are fine locating a cute domestic long/short

> A top-of-the-line tiny house with RV-like conveniences can set you back $60,000 or more. The 30 dwellings at Opportunity Village, made of prefab donated materials, cost “around $3,300 a unit”. The savings come from the fact that they a

You're assuming there will be mass movement towards self-driving car pools. I don't think that's the case. I think personal car ownership will persist for quite some time, even with self-driving cars. Having a car in your dri

The previous administration sent out stimulus checks in 2008, I believe. The economy still tanked a few months later.

I disagree with a lot of this. MLS is absolutely huge in most of the non-dense U.S. It's not that much of a hindrance for people to self list on Zillow if you live in California where tons of people use Zillow. It's more of a hind

Google Analytics is not meant to track individual customers. Of course you're going to struggle getting a tool to do something it wasn't meant to do! This is a job for CRM, not clicksteam.

I'm reading this as less of a gripe in GA not having a ROI report and more of complaining about marketing attribution. Marketing attribution isn't a super-easy problem to solve. But complaining that GA doesn't know that a per

It may go without saying, but potential market has a lot to do with it as well. A company like Uber is entering a huge transportation market; Airbnb a huge lodging market. They can be big fish in big ponds. I think there are lots of YC comp

> For the most popular the artists wouldn't be complaining about being paid too little. Taylor Swift did just that recently and pulled her music from Spotify because she didn't feel she was fairly compensated.

Artsits used to put together similar listening schemes on MP3.com. The money was much better back then, from what I remember.

These things have kill switches built-in, don't they? My question would be, what happens to the markets if there is a quick fall, the algorithms shut down, and all the HFT liquidity is removed?

I think the "easy" way to shove yourself into the market would be to tackle a niche, so you can specifically target both the advertisers and the publishers that have an audience that would engage with those advertisers. So if you

If you get a DUI, even for the first time, you're going to spend at least a night in jail and rack up several thousand dollars in fines and attorney fees. I don't think first time DUI's are a felony in most of the U.S., but y

I could just be completely off their target markets, but I just can't fathom why someone would spend $1,000 on a watch every two years. With phones, the case for upgrading every two or three years can be reasonably built. How much tech
