It is not possible for everyone to get this return. Managing your own IRA may be a good idea for some but it isn't for everyone. And a 15%-20% return s not realistic for more than a small percentage of people.

I don't think this is a correct view of what the Incompleteness Theorem says. The Incompleteness Theorem says that there are statements that are true in the standard model of the integers that are not provable in the first order Peano

The explanation is in lecture 15. It requires knowledge of some advanced mathematics. Abelian varieties over the complex numbers are analytically isomorphic to a torus.

If you prefer, 1 + 0 x = 2. We agree that is an equation. It has no solution. Typically in math we don't write 0x in expressions. Suppose we start with 2x+5 = x - 4 + x. If we solve this by showing all work we'll end up at the

It's a fair question in that a student's inability to give an example of an equation that has no solution indicates that we aren't really teaching students what an equation is/means. If one can't instantly give an

I teach mathematics at a community college. The lecture resonated with me and I found it captivating. Here is a synopsis based off of memory: Masur discovered that there is something called the Force Concepts Quiz. He learned that studen

At programs like Alabama. But not at most programs.

At Alabama. What about the other 100 or so FBS schools? Does Alabama make a profit without mandatory athletic fees? What about other schools? Alabama is an outlier and even its numbers are not as good as they make them out to be.

Does that include cost of building the stadium? The gyms? I don't think it does.

Very few college football programs generate a profit for the school. A large majority of college football programs are propped up by mandatory student fees. College athletics is not profitable for schools with the exception of very few of

I tend to give the benefit of the doubt to experts in such situations. While I too thought of the Law of Conservation of Mass and wondered why the author didn't think of it I also know this means that most likely it is I who is lackin

Medicare runs much more cheaply than private insurance companies. Since there are examples of where your claim is false suggests to me that you are possibly wrong. Do you have evidence of this conspiracy?

But almost none of the inventors of said advancements profited from their inventions. It seems to me there should be an upper and lower limit that all people regardless of circumstance live within.

You've gone from talking about per pupil spending to teacher salaries. There's a gap there. I don't know this to be true but I suspect that administrative costs, need to build newer schools with fancy athletic facilities sk

Well how about the article in question? It doesn't say a month but the gist of the article is that profit is motivating at least one chain to make patients stay too long. Which is the essence of the point you are responding to. My wif

You missed entirely flexie's point. Flexie gave numerous examples of circumstances in which the owner of a private property can not legally do as he/she pleases. Your response is to mention the castle doctrine. What is the purp

I would really like this if I felt that the software could be trusted to work well. I'd only buy this from a company with a good record of creating usable interfaces. For instance, when I clicked on the "Where to Buy" button

I believe in freedom of speech too. That means that the government should not stifle speech. HN and other such entities have the right regulate speech on their properties.

Yes it is better not to get married in such a situation. At least financially speaking. But it is still false to say spousal income is always taken into consideration.

Older docs don't have to take board exams every ten years. Incoming doctors all have to take board exams every 10 years for the rest of their working life. This may account for why high volume doctors don't have the higher morta

At large state universities pay is good. It goes down dramatically when looking st regional state universities and community colleges. Also over 50% of higher education is taught by non-tenured or tenure track faculty. Pay for such worke

Well, adjust the search accordingly. How about, "I can't afford my student loan payments"?

PAYE does not take into account spousal income if you file taxes separately. Your other statements are correct. One really has to research things and it appears many do not. EDIT: The PAYE plan does not take into account spousal income if

The paper that is linked to uses the fact that the harmonic series diverges (sums to infinity) to prove that the sum of 1/p diverges where the sum occurs over all primes. The article does not show that the harmonic series diverges. T

Given where China was in the 1970s they've progressed rapidly. The situation there is much better on average than it was when Mao was in power. Both in terms of economic freedom and political freedom. Currently they are making major

You miss my point. The U.S. is a wealthy nation. Our notions of society, shared burdens, shared responsibilities has degraded so far that people are talking about harvesting their organs to pay for the education of their progeny. Reasona
