I think the 50% rule is okay. I get that it's annoying for the students who tried and got a 55%. But I suspect that the kids who would get score much less than a 50 are probably the least engaged and most disruptive. If a 50 can keep t

The article actually addresses this in the final sentence: “Nearly half of prime age men who are not in the labor force take pain medication on any given day; and in nearly two-thirds of these cases, they take prescription pain medication.”

Do those other exchanges have some other type of anonymity mechanism? I guess I could see Monero on Bitcoin as a service, but if it isn't something like that it seems just as pseudoanonymous as regular BTC

Everyone is saying how 1.8B is a ton, but I’m kinda surprised that it’s “barely” more than the Depop acquisition today at 1.6B.

I doubt FB could replicate this. Fb itself is a non-starter the people who use this app haven't been on Fb in years. Okay, so Instagram. If they could, they would’ve. I think there are problems with making Instagram seem tacky by clob

Well for one, they can probably get you pretty close to if not over 500k if you’re senior. I also think Amazon and FB stand out for that kind of mean spirited meat grinder vibe. Netflix doesn’t screw around with any of it and lets you go wi

Yes and some evaporates, but I think the tool is mapping the path of water that doesn't leave the water system that way and flows out into a larger body.

As a person whose family is from East Africa, saying that you would literally live in Somalia over the Bay Area is really goofy. There's a GDP per capita of ~250 bucks, the 4th lowest in the world. Even if you lived in some western e

What is the purpose of Solidity? Why did there need to be a new language for interacting with the Ethereum Virtual Machine? This really couldn't be accomplished by a python SDK?

I don't think that stands to reason at all. That sounds laughable, especially in the context of the heinous things American society did to purposefully black families from "achieving their potential". While immigrant families

That sounds like a very mid 20th century POV. Which I totally get for Buffett. Most rankings of social mobility put the US outside the top 20. The highs are higher here, but the path to get there, especially from the bottom 10%, is more dif
