   All this discussion about employee/contractor situation or possible collusion won't matter after Uber/Lyft close this loophole and this can be done easily. It makes no sense that the drivers would allow the reporter to public

   I had a Lasership package found on the street by a stranger (thankfully he sent it to me with a note).

   Seems pretty clear to me: Google doesn't show the website link in the top 3 results but shows a lot of fact-checking sites in the top 10. It definitely should show the site at #1. The number of fact-checkers shown seems a little excess

   I mentioned the tax proposal elsewhere in this thread and it seems to be the most workable solution.

   Did you forget about abandoned houses in the worst areas in making your list? And it matters because what are you going do? Don't allow apartment owners to wait for new tenants? Don't allow people to have houses for sale? Don&#x27

   You ATTOM link doesn't specify if these are actually 2nd/3rd/etc homes. Some of them are mentioned in the article as foreclosures. A good number could be houses for sale or newly built apartments or abandoned houses in bad ar

   You can have an extra city tax in this case. It would mean that the city gets even more "free" money without having to provide services to that person when their house is vacant. This was seriously discussed in NYC - see pied-à-te

    You're right, not a good source. Google does a poor job of bringing up unbiased soruces. A better term to search for is expanded polystyrene foam. Here are some sources: https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-33334994

    In NLP, tokenization is one of the first steps in the pipeline to break down text into individual words. I don't know about others but for the project I'm doing, the tokenization speed doesn't matter much in the big picture b

    How would that make the chances of destabilization higher? It seems you actually agree with me?

    The data you cite is about the attractivness to the opposite sex, not about sex drive. I did a search but I haven't found any solid data.

    Of course it's not but VR porn is a big step from video porn. There will be a percentage of men who will be satisfied by it just enough to wait longer (at 30+ it could become easier for them). Don't you think that this could lower

    I don't think this is the biggest factor. Men's income relative to women's [1] and the lower amount of steady jobs [2][3] could be somewhat more important for long-term relationship though [4]. In the 18-30 age range, women m

    I think you're right but there are new things coming, such as VR porn, that could make the effect smaller.

    I think the trend is true but this study did not have a large sample size. It was 31 out of 105 men in this age range saying they did not have sex.

    I think a much more likely explanation for Birmingham's low productivity is that it has the highest share of people with no qualifications (education) in the UK and the gap is becoming wider ( https://www.centreforcities.org&
