How well communicated is that? For example, you could mention it when people first sign up.

I don't quite understand the connection between single-payer and your implication that the drug you need wouldn't exist.

Make it possible to cancel online and retroactively give refunds on your website. You'll never see a chargeback again.

Isn't it in everyone's best interest to revamp healthcare? Who exactly loses here? Rich people in the health industry? I don't get it. I read somewhere that half a trillion a year [1] would be saved by single-payer. It'

I'm aware that it uses an IR camera. What I'm curious about is what the accuracy rates are in practice for light vs dark skinned people for Face ID in general. There's more to Face ID than just the type of camera they'

I wonder how well Face ID works with dark skinned people. Dead serious. Historically facial recognition has had a tough time with dark skinned folks. The inclusion of an IR camera should mitigate, if not solve this, but I'm curious to

You're right, however in the original scenario proposed you'd sell your property and buy another one, enacting like kind exchange. So then you don't have to pay any taxes.

by tabeth 9y ago
True, but you'd have to pay tax either way (e.g. don't have a rental and pay capital gains, though this is minimized if you're a first time homeowner), is what I'm saying. Though, the cool thing is that if your house is

You have to pay depreciation recapture tax whether or not you actually depreciate your house[1]. Not depreciating a rental property is just stupid. [0] https://www.thebalance.com/depreciation-recapture-3192979 [1] Internal

One thing a middle class friend of mine does is the following: 1. Buy house 2. Rent out rooms 3. Deduct all expenses that you'd have to pay anyway, utilities, internet, etc. as "business expenses". 4. Depreciate house 5. Reno

Again, both monopolies and the government can be problematic. It isn't necessarily one or the other.
404.
by tabeth 9y ago
That's irrelevant. You said that you don't worry about monopolies. They're clearly a problem, regardless of why they exist.

Make private passenger vehicles illegal and replace them with buses. Most issues will resolve themselves.

"cost commensurate with your first few years of income"

by tabeth 9y ago
I'm surprised it took this long. The value is opaque. Education is just selection bias. College should be free up front and cost commensurate with your first few years of income. Incentives would then be aligned properly

I'd love to play, but no time to spare. I mentioned video games because the OP mentioned how peer group effects are strong. If that's the case and is a proposed explanation for opiate use, why aren't these people playing vide

What I've never understood is why anyone does opiates to begin with, under any circumstances. Why even try it? I feel in the media everywhere it is said how terrible it is.

That's neat, but most of those aren't anything that can't be implemented with just CSS and HTML, unlike some of the stuff you've done for the NYT. Though even in that case, isn't all of this stuff just static assets

I wonder how much of this kind of stuff exists out of necessity and how much of it exists because very smart people are just bored and/or unsatisfied. Are there any articles that supplement this that explain how much business value is

I remember for a school project long ago I had to interview a bunch of people in nursing homes. Many of them had been in marriages that spanned several decades so I asked them how they made it work. Shockingly everyone said basically the sa

I don't really buy any of your assertions. Why even lie? If you're lying to get out of an uncomfortable situation for example, you can't possibly value that person that much no? Ultimately, if telling the truth kills the rela

Very impressive that they've made this at such a young age. I also hope they're developing strong friendships and doing "regular kid stuff" too, though. You'll never get that time back sadly.

I think so, if only because the discussion should be surrounding best practices and following standards, as opposed to a sensationalist notion that single page apps should be abandoned in general.

by tabeth 9y ago
None of the things described here are inherent to single page apps. Ember (with Ember Data and proper routing), for example, solves most of the issues he brings up (back button not working, failure to link to individual items) by conventi

I was thinking something more of the lines of length/width than height (in the case of the ants). Though, I feel your point applies there as well.
