Thanks for confirming that you don't have experience in law firms.
You clearly don't have experience in law firms. White shoe Wall Street lawyers, for example, generally can't just hang their own shingle and do corporate M&A as a solo practitioner.
First of all, the "no layoffs" claim can easily be achieved through attrition, as covered elsewhere in this thread. That means that someone would have been hired to replace a departing worker but now isn't getting that…
If two to three seconds of waiting (that's on the high end, and only for certain apps) is breaking your flow, you need to work on your attention span. That's ADHD territory. Edit: For that matter, interacting with your…
> I suggest you discuss this directly with archaeological faculty at a university, rather than making claims about dynamite - e.g. those who used dynamite were treasure hunters, for example, not archaeologists. Modern…
> If something looks like it's an impossibly good investment, it may actually be. Probably not a fair criticism of the investor in this case. 20 years ago, it would have been a totally accurate assessment.
Lots of people want to be drones so that they can feed their families. Ideally, they could feed their families without being drones, but your saying that they should be glad to lose their drone jobs without gaining a…
Only a very tiny portion of the global population is in a position to own productive capital (or, at least, enough to support themselves). Even if the portion were higher, though, you are basically just advocating…
There's a lot more to sexism (and other bigotry) than simple economics. Presumably, we have all had coworkers who weren't great workers, weren't very bright, etc., but managed to get ahead by schmoozing and playing…
Islamic banks are issuing loans without interest to this day. They have a clever fee schedule though, and I'm not sure it works out any differently for the borrower at the end of the day.
Carve it onto stone tablets.
For certain millennials, crypto-currency already seems to hold the role that gold does for certain baby boomers. I would expect that phenomenon to grow during a bear market.
The problem is that, in most cases, managers are people who were good workers (and good at office politics) and who then got promoted into supervisory roles with little, if any, additional training.

Yes, they still need coke, but much if not all of that demand can be met by oil refineries. Even if the steel industry got all its coke from coal that would be a pretty small percentage of the coal market.
I really struck a chord, didn't I?
> Maybe, but this is not why we have patents. Yeah, and? I wasn't saying so.
Lots of things become easy to replicate after they've been done once, despite being non-obvious before. The "no obvious inventions" part of patent law is supposed to prevent people from patenting things that are already…
I bet you're fun at parties.
This is also why U.S. companies like to incorporate in Delaware – it's not that the laws and regulations are favorable, it's that the laws and regulations are well known and predictable.
One sarcastic tweet from a random nobody is not a bellweather of leftist discourse. That's a weak joke, not social commentary.
> The laws don't affect the rich and the poor in the same way. To paraphrase an excellent line: The law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges and steal bread.
Shit, do you really think that people who get speeding tickets deserve jail time? You understand that the punishment should be proportional to the crime, right?
I am also white, and I also grew up poor. I agree that many (though far from all) of the college students who talk about socioeconomic inequality are spoiled brats. However, you have misunderstood what "white privilege"…
> You're suggesting he's using "Marxist intellectuals" as a codeword for Jews, and that he's actually a Nazi (or at the very least a conspiracy theorist anti-semite) Do you genuinely believe that the only anti-Semites…
