It can be frustrating how studies always lump in processed meat with unprocessed meat. Unprocessed meat is nearly google-proof, since every media outlet is busy broadcasting the evils of "red and processed meat" like…
But why would you do that? I think it's just calorie density and behavior. You might just as well have eaten a bucket of ice cream as fast as you could. I.e. before your rising blood sugar has a chance to stop you.…
Even artificial sweetener leads to craving carbs in my case. As for the "gut punch" though, sounds like gastritis or something. Unless you're being metaphorical. For me, water helps when I'm fasting and stomach pains…
That also sounds like the opposite of xenophobia. And the US befriended China for important strategic reasons starting with Nixon. If they underestimated anything it was the ability of an authoritarian regime to retain…
Depends how they got that way. Will they pay for it? Perhaps they made an unwise investment and should have paid for more rights. I have seen the case where someone buys a parcel from a larger property. Then turned…
Yes in that the situations they refer to account for all investment of any kind being "a bad thing", while I criticize certain govt policies. But other than that, same page yes.
Financial leveraging is risk. You can lose your principal. Investors pay for building new homes too. Speculators do need to get burned periodically to correct bubbles though. Especially now. Making money because you…
Are these houses or apartments? I don't see a problem with these real estate developers that are building and managing large apartments complexes themselves. Seems like they're doing a lot to add supply at the lower…
But equity is supposed to go up in value because of profit and growth and whatnot, not just in price. That's why you buy it. At least in a normal universe. They still need to know there was a scam going on to be…
I wouldn't call infrastructure the root problem when people are murdering others. My point was the murders are evidence that there's psychos down there. Hence people want more cops.
I would have thought Singapore had more policing in all respects versus US cities. Also the subway stories are probably more about general fear of whatever criminals are apparently lurking down there. It can get kind of…
But if you fight against overzealous enforcement you will necessarily be shielding some bad actors along with the good. Not that I'm personally against the SEC (and other agencies) crossing into crypto and interpreting…
We have something exactly like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shopkeeper%27s_privilege
The return policy was the reason I started buying stuff (besides books) from Amazon in the first place. Initially it was just computer components where alternatives commonly had restocking fees and shipping costs for…
Doesn't everyone use words to mean what they want to mean by the words?? I seriously though your post was a defense at first. Why would their rule not protect you from liability also? If it's legal it isn't vigilantism.…
Coding is not a great example. It can be fixed silently and the error disappears, unlike published claims. And I'd say you're making an analogy that is extreme. The corrections we are talking about are shared in the…
> They were not an attempt to fool people. That's exactly what they are. The whole reason People started pushing them was to pursue an agenda to affect developmental psychology. Perhaps you are misreading my point, as…

The etiquette is if someone catches you in a real mistake, you should thank them (yes it can be hard, etiquette isn't always the same as reacting naturally). After all they could have ignored your existence but bothered…
Sure if your goal is to get something from a person then you should use another tactic. People have always had egos and taken criticism personally. Often it becomes an argument. But those arguments can still be very…
Sometimes the plane will be too full and you'll get required to check your overhead bag. So you can't count on it for fragile/valuable stuff. In my case I bring a cloth handbag stuffed in there so I can take out the…
Herd behavior, very common in finance certainly. I guess because they can profit from momentum even when the market ends up going nowhere over the long term.
I agree but then that makes it "dual use" clickbait, since there's always less-savvy new people coming along. Someday it will be possible to effectively filter all info that is presented on my devices, and along with…

Or maybe Microsoft finds it's a cheaper and easier to leverage their monopoly position if they operate in "perpetual beta" by rushing out new features before competition can get a foothold, then using their (paying)…
