It is basically the vegetarian version of an unhealthy burger. If you wouldn’t normally eat a whopper for health reasons, then you have no reason to start eating this.

I'd hope so man, but the issue here wasn't that you don't invest "everywhere", it's that a man was profiled based on his name and quickly turned away. I'd try to figure out why that happened.

They covered this scenario where you start with a $200 million dollar business and turn it into a $100 million dollar business.

I think the gripe is that they were extremely racist: As in they took one look at his name, decided he must be Indian, and simply told him off that they do not invest in India... or Indians (though not so direct).

Just a note, but it is possible for anyone to become hardened to cold weather with gradual exposure over time. I used to feel cold like death but now I easily walk around in casual clothes in 30 degree weather.

Personally I have found it a bit sad that in the recent decade people have been so lured by the wealth and glamour of popular startup culture that we have forgotten the value of being in service to others. To master one’s craft for the bene

Starting a tech company because you want to get rich is a fine reason to do so, it just shouldn’t be the only reason. When you have a goal of actually making good money it will force you to build a successful company on purpose from the g

I’m not sure what the point of supporting most small business retail is. If you are just selling things I can buy online, you have no reason to exist, and are just taking up space that can be used for other service like businesses.

I cringe when I see these kind of comments because for the heavy vim users it becomes clear the OP simply doesn’t get vim. The uninitiated always stumble around with vim like bumbling bafoons wondering why anyone would use something so anti

That’s nice for you, but some of us suffer from disorders that lead to shaking hands and poor coordination, such that plugging in a device to such a small port is a grueling, sometimes impossible task. What then?

I don't even know why they bothered making the AirPower so complicated, especially for its first version. Do people even care about device orientation or communication of charge levels? 90% of the purchase decision is based on just hav

The short answer is no. I find people that attempt to do this without having worked in the valley always end up with some milquetoast quality to them that people in the valley can always pick up on. You could maybe fool people who are not f

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm prepared to open up a huge short position when Lyft gets to about 90. No way this thing will keep going up.

I have to conclude I hate cyclists. This isn't something that just happened, but rather has been due to a long history of bad experiences with cyclists. My earliest contempt for cyclists began in elementary school, where cyclist kids w

Too late for that now. These debts can never be discharged without grave consequences for the economy.

Maybe I’m daft but it seems like the premium is for cases of theft or damage not caused by driving. Seems pretty clear to me.

I would encourage developers to first build out their applications as a CLI. Then add just enough UI for the masses. But still release your CLI version. Ordering food or managing stocks on the command line is fantastic!

Eh, with cars you can only be driving one at a time so it doesn't make sense for insurance to double or triple just because you now have two or three cars. With family members, they are all absolutely living in parallel and at the same

Tuition will not drop until we see a tightening on student loans. As long as lenders are giving out vast sums of money to kids with no job and no credit, there is no reason to drop tuition prices. Higher tuition wouldn’t really be a problem

Sorry, but you are not entitled to a house or any loans. This is not "elites shaping the behavior of commoners", this is just common sense. Loaning money to people is an investment and giving money to people who have no history of

That's very cool, especially for 1994. I'd love to play a VR game where you get to breed and play with such creatures, kind of like what Spore should have been. And here's a genetic walker you can grow in your own browser: h
