And, possibly, illegal. I mean, it seems to me that asserting that the car provides a "bioweapons defense mode" (and, a fortiori, the marketing claim that "You can literally survive a military grade bio attack by sitting in your car") is clearly promoting the car with a claim that is a "machine...intended for use in the...prevention of disease, in man", and, as such, a medical device subject to premarket and postmarket regulatory control by the FDA: http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidanc...
"X did Y" works equally as well as "X just did Y." I'm sure they use 'just' to make the article seem more immediate. "The Price of Solar Power fell 50% in 16 months" has a markedly different tone than "The price of solar power just fell 50% in 16 months". The headline with the work 'just' seems like breaking news. The other variant seems like a normal report that you can pick up an read at your leisure.

Most articles in a normal newspaper don't do this because they don't have to. Only the headline needs to be sensationalist to sell the paper. On a website, every article needs to drag people in. The current headline is click-bait. That would be forgivable if the entire article wasn't terrible as well. There is very little content or analysis, everything is cribbed from other sources, including the charts. I will give the author credit for linking all of their sources, but that is where my praise ends.
You are buying wrong laptops for the job and then being upset about them instead of blaming yourself for the poor choices.
Then, less than an hour after the long-stilled wheels of the 747 were spun back to life by the sun-beaten surface of an African runway, I'll be on a bus heading into Cape Town, sitting in rush hour traffic, on an ordinary morning in which, glancing down through the windshield of a nearby car, I'll see a hand lift a cup of coffee or reach forward to tune the radio. And I'll think: All this would still be going on if I hadn't flown here.

I finally made an account to comment on this. This is one of those realizations which, to me, still has its full effect every time I think about it. I think it really hit me the first time when I was on a road trip, passing city after city, neighborhood after neighborhood, house after house, and then thinking about the population of the area I just passed compared to that of my state, my country, and outward. Thinking about the challenges and experiences I've had among my friends and family, inside each of those houses, etc. It's a very powerful source of empathy.
I don't disagree on the size of market, but you need to do a bottom up analysis and not just a top down one.

Very few businesses which aren't inherently social/viral manage to make social media, referral, etc. channels scale without significant cost. Unless you've got a strong expertise in making such marketing channels work you'll be likely to struggle (and investors will know this and won't take you seriously if you make this pitch).

I'd recommend you look at other businesses in this space (ComparetheMarket, uSwitch) in other countries. Generally they make a brand play and then amortise the cost of customer acquisition by up-selling price comparison on everything (insurance, mobile contracts, etc.) so they have a much higher revenue per-customer.

I wouldn't assume attrition is going to be low either, especially if you require user effort (photographing bills) and presumably your cohorts will decrease in value organically over time (i.e. if you keep switching to cheaper providers approximately each switch is going to be a smaller saving than the previous).
Oh I absolutely agree. Indeed, I often make a point of arguing against libertarians who try to take property rights as a moral prior, and I'm highly amused that so many people are now making the same argument against me...

But if we're going to limit property rights, we should do so systematically by redistribution, not by allowing ad hoc violations. Predictability is the most important economic benefit of the rule of law.
The "yawn" is a bit flippant, but I don't see why it's condescending, he's absolutely correct. Your comic book guy reference seems to suggest that you think he's using big words to sound smart or something, but it seems like a pretty cogent response to a post that completely skips over the substance of the topic at hand and parades around unqualified assumptions about the poster as an argument.
Lots of words and very little content.
>I don't really expect that anyone would make that kind of guarantee

Yet you do seem to expect that guarantee:

> An honest business that actually believed in their own promises shouldn't have problem putting those promises into a formal guarantee.

You can't use such guarantees to vet businesses because no sane company would meet your requirements!

do I have an account on this site? What email address did I use to sign up?

Fair point but often there are not too many possibilities.

What is my username

Your email address, in most cases.

My password is too long. My password is too short. My password has the wrong characters. My password does have enough numbers. My password doesn't have enough special characters. My password has too many numbers. My password had too many special characters.

Occasionally a problem, but I have been using this method for years and have maybe two or three passwords that I have to manually remember for reasons like this.

If you are specifically targeted they can compare your password in two hacked databases and find out your scheme.

True, but then one can similarly come up with scenarios for most other schemes.

I agree it's not perfect and won't cover every case, but it has worked well for me.

It is possible, but it requires that ads people trust publishers. Otherwise publishers will just say they served a million ad that day, and cash on it without any proof.

Putting aside the absurd comparison of living costs in a 3rd world country vs 1st world...

India is filled with a ton of misery. It's the only country in the world where I saw dead people just lying in the gutter. The Mumbai slum was one of the worst places I've ever been and you want to hold that up as some sort of ideal? That people should just live down to that level instead of striving for better? If it wasn't for the Indian government welfare programs, that slum would be filled with rotting corpses.

Good points. I'm in the camp that sees the claimed benefits of SIT as a logical extension of cardio exercise to the set/rest/set approach of weightlifting, but this study doesn't really answer that question. I'd really like to see an "equal time" comparison group to account for newb gains (e.g. MICT for 10 min vs SIT for 10 min) as well as directly compare the effect of the different approaches.
But then all your programmers have private offices, which has been thoroughly established as dramatically important to productivity, as well as a bargaining chip in recruiting the best people.

(Kind of old, but still applicable.)

Supplying an allowance to rent somewhere with a good workspace or set up an office is still mostly cheaper than renting an inner-city space with private offices... and then you don't have issues with VCs thinking you're burning their money unnecessarily.
> The counter-argument to that is, "customers who consume pay taxes and fee's to maintain the lines

It's not consumption anymore, but usage. You are using the grid infrastructure you should be required to help maintain it. It was just never an issue before now. Everyone uses the grid, the community needs to help maintain it.
Don't see why they would need to hope that interest rates remain low. Interest rates are already low, so they can sell debt at current interest rates for the term needed. I do think you're correct that low interest rates are a factor.

They really are, commerical diesel vehicles just got banned in Delhi by the supreme court. The situation is favorable to Tesla. An affordable electric vehicle could be an instant hit. Even in other cities there has been a drastic reduction in air quality with a booming middle class and the number of cars increasing. (In my city it increased to 1.5 times in a year!!).

I am not holding my breath for Tesla to make an appearance here (with an affordable to middle class) offering but it would be awesome if they did.

That you expect them to be taken care of does not help those who are starving. Consider legal decisions like this an incentive to push for a government that actually does this.

So you put property rights above the life of someone else?

Personally I find such an attitude incredibly offensive.
From the iPython notebook that appears to be associated with the blog post [1], they appear to be using Stan [2].

There would be competition to stop rents and real estate from going up to compensate. It may or may not be sufficient.

Note that it is not merely a question of competition of perfect substites. An apartment competes with a house, but also with a shared apartment, with living with family, with leaving the area. And note that a Basic Income

I wonder if they'll find any hope with those trees left unscathed that are deemed "resistant."

Also, with something like this, how do they remove the trees without the disease spreading in the process? I know when I go to prune bits of my roses that have black spot or rust, it can spread just by contact in the course of removal which can be damn near impossible to avoid. I can only imagine how that scales at tree size.

Hm, I dimly remembered what was called "Mundraub" in Germany, so I looked it up and interestingly, the German wikipedia entry mentions 5th book Moses, 23,25 (probably should be 23,24?) as an example of theft permitted if for immediate consumption (and perhaps in not too large quantities):

american express use to enforce insane limits on passwords back in 2010[0]. 6-8 characters for passwords, no special character and had to have 1 letter, 1 number and it wasn't case sensitive. unfortunately _I_ had an amex card.

that page i linked to also has a reply from amex support who shows little knowledge about the difference between passwords and website encryption.

they eventually started expanding that limit from 6-8 characters to 8-20 characters around 2012? 2013?

This shouldn't be a very expensive feature. It's just an air filter.
That seems to be exactly what they would want you to do. You're not generating any revenue for them and clearly have no intention of doing so.
Land is special because it has always existed and (practically) you can't make more of it.

There are reasons to make it private, but it's quite different from, say, a sculpture. Clay is nearly worthless, so if an artist turns it into a valuable sculpture, that value was created. Obviously, there's a spectrum here. Even land typically requires an investment to make it useful for anything.

Food is largely created; especially something like sausages or cheese. So the tale of the miner above doesn't really apply. It may not even apply well in that case, if the pheasants were feeding on crops cultivated by the landowner.
It's very common to mix them up. We use civil law in Sweden but due to the influence of US movies and TV series it's common, in my experience, for people to think about laws in a US fashion.

So far as I can tell, "the public" has this perfectly clear. (Or at least as clear as "the public" ever has anything, which is not necessarily all that clear.) I think what you mean is that I need to convince you.

I've no idea what (if anything) you would accept as evidence. Here's the first paragraph of the Wikipedia page on communism; feel free to check that the [...]s don't hide anything that changes the meaning.

> [...] communism [...] is a[...] ideology and movement whose ultimate goal is the establishment of the communist society, which is a socioeconomic order structured upon the common ownership of the means of production and the absence of social classes, money, and the state.

Does a universal basic income cause, or require, common ownership of the means of production? Nope. The means of production stay largely in the hands of businesses (or, as the communists might say, of Capital). Does it involve the absence of social classes? Nope. Successful lawyers (say) will continue to have much, much more money and much higher social status than anyone who's largely dependent on basic income. Does it involve the absence of money? Nope. It depends on the continued existence of money. Does it involve the absence of the state? Nope. It depends on the continued existence of the state.

Well, who cares what those pinko loons at Wikipedia say? Communism is whatever they had in the Soviet Union. How about that?

Well, in the Soviet Union they had a centrally planned economy where the government told factories how many of everything to make, etc. Does a universal basic income cause or require that? Nope. Businesses continue to decide what to make and what to sell at what prices; individual consumers continue to decide what to buy. ("But a basic income would require a big government!" Well, kinda, in that the government would be taking in more tax and handing out more money. But that's got nothing to do with central planning. A basic income wouldn't mean that the government would do more of the work; if anything, it should be less because the BI would replace a bunch of other more complicated benefits that require more administrative work to make sure they're going to the "right" people.) In the Soviet Union they had a totalitarian state with secret police, gulags, etc. Does a universal basic income require that? Nope. Obviously. The Soviet Union had undemocratic politics where the Communists were always in power. Does a universal basic income require that? Nope. Obviously.

"Communism" does not mean the same as "anything vaguely leftish that I don't like".
I was looking for a specific laptop for my daughter that came in both 1920x1080 and 3200x1800 and the former was almost completely sold out everywhere. So I guess a lot of people prefer the lower-res. I felt the same way because if you have two laptops with identical specs but one has 4x as many pixels to push -- that's quite a trade off.
