Over the past 6 months I've had to return over half of the 40 items I've purchased from amazon for reasons ranging from being fake to damaged in shipping. The guy who took most of my returns at the UPS store said he's has a l

If Uber or Airbnb counsel refused to defend some of the dubiously legal practices that both companies practice, they'd be fired that minute.

I'd like to know what your response it to the claims of ageism. The median age of American workers is 42, what percentage of your employees are over that age?

Exactly. Ships cause enormous amounts of pollution but are practically unregulated thanks to the lobbying influence of companies that import and export.

There's a lot more humans than elephants, and a lot of these humans should be taking better care of themselves and their environment. I'd rather my resources go to elephants who are suffering at the hands of humans than to humans

Maybe there are other reasons that people didn't want a refugee shelter popping up next door to them, like crime and overcrowding. If she wants to help she can follow the law and do it without forcing everyone in her neighborhood to pa

I'm a little confused by your comment. Are you saying that you're running an illegal AirBNB rental? Because that's what this is targeting, people already breaking the zoning laws. Also, are you saying that your cousin will lo

So skip seven appointments to discuss your multibillion tax bill with the IRS, and Obama will still come share the stage with you at a conference. Good to know.

Actually the judge wouldn't let Gawker present evidence from the FBI that both Hogan and the woman knew they were being taped. This means that not only is it possible that they lied on the stand, but with the huge amount required to ap

You can't find the study because it doesn't exist. In the United States and in the UK there is a huge disparity in violent crimes committed by race.

Maybe that's a sign that these people shouldn't be cheating to get into a school that they can't work their way out of. These aren't victims, they're cheaters taking spots from other people.

It's probably because like many "reporters" at Daily Beast, she apparently has an agenda to push. Why not just report the story, complete with facts like where exactly it happened, and maybe at least one interview with a witn

This whole thing seems a little fishy. It supposedly happened on Friday and the only news article I could find about it didn't have any independent verification.

This is the opposite of showing cajones. Manufacturers of these drugs have been sued because their drugs were used for executions. So this is a attempt to avoid liability.

Part of the problem with the Vine program is that there's no real need or want that other reviewers have. If I'm looking for a backup battery because it's something I need every day, and I get shipped one and it takes two wee

I'll be blunt, too. I'm interested to know why it's so easy for Facebook users like me to spot fake accounts and report them, while your crack team at Facebook constantly ignores them and allows them to continue proliferating

I think it's pretty awful for a YCombinator employee to come into the comments and chastise a commenter for bashing a YCombinator company. In this case especially, as lots of abuse stories exist about Airbnb.

Ah yes, poor, poor Newscorp and poor Rupert Murdoch.

I believe there's a two year minimum to get that capital gains exception, so you'd have to flip every two years.

Why isn't that a good example? It shows in the United States there are people that can arbitrarily add months to your jail sentence for insulting them, or simply send you to jail if you happen to do it while being in the same room they

I agree. People in the United States have gone to jail for insulting someone if that someone happens to be a judge, but for some reason everyone is up in arms over a world leader doing the same thing. I think it's ridiculous that I hav

How did you confirm this? Do you know the person with the account?

So you're claiming that having people prosecuted for theft of IP is "pouting" and that companies should just accept it and not complain? So if I came to your company and stole all of your trade secrets you'd just say &qu

Do you have facts that counter that 80 percent number? I'm curious why you think the Chinese aren't stealing American intellectual property. It's not propaganda if it's true, and everything I've seen indicates that

Looks like the author put himself in the spotlight by whining, and a quick look at his articles shows that he's constantly complaining about every product he has. He's be a nightmare to have as a customer.

SO do you think that it's okay for these employers to not pay overtime just because it's physical labor?

I can't see Facebook ever pursuing the criminal angle in this situation. I actually wonder if Alex's boss isn't a little unhappy with his response because it will make people think twice about their bug bounty (just look at t

I'd say that the BLM people have almost no humility or open-mindedness.

I can't wait for more automation to hit US ports. I'm all for decent wages, but dockworkers get paid so much they end up behaving a lot like oilfield workers. Dockworkers are a prime example of what gives unions a bad name.
