Everyone starts with a perfect driving record until one day it’s not perfect.
That is a baffling response, no one suggested corporations have consciousness. The poster said “I don’t think there’s anything wrong with this” are they a corporation? If they are, apparently they do have consciousness…
“ In principle, I don't think there's anything wrong with this. All investment expects a ROI over some time horizon” Huh? Why is there nothing wrong? Yes they wouldn’t make the investment if they didn’t think they had a…
Should there be taxes on alcohol and cigarettes? Should there be warnings on them? What about on heroin?
What predictions? Why is it useful to know what the odds are for Trump to the word “postage stamp” in a specific speech? Why are the sports odds useful? Word mention market and sports market are the majority of bets…
Development and permitting cost (fees plus time) are most certainly a part of the problem.
So hertz can report your car stolen after you return it, landing you in jail? Renting a car comes with extra worry, even taking that extreme case out of consideration. You’re driving around a break in magnet,…
That will drive off the other dissolved gasses, and at least according to some, will make the water taste stale. Coffee heads have told me to use freshly heated and not reboiled water for that reason.
Why have seatbelts and safety regulations if insurance can fix dead people?
Water tax is different in many ways, and a bad comparison. Also that water tax phrasing is bizarre, like saying people in famine areas are being silly for refusing to buy food on the moral principle of high cost.…
That makes a ton of sense except one killer flaw - literally killer. People will put off buying new tires to dangerous extents. Yes Some people already do that, but adding any meaningful fee/tax on new tires will most…
They talked about Iran giving up its HEU, i.e. basically returning its uranium stocks to the Obama deal days when Iran agreed to even get rid of its modest quantity of medium enriched uranium. Why are people so literal…
I don’t think it’s a win, I said that in the context of the comment above. Note the question mark
Except oil prices are predicted to remain over $100 for at least the rest of this year. It’s not a short term thing.
You do realize food and fuel didn’t just rise 1% on an annual basis? Right?
Umm okay so many other aspects of the cpi respond slower and this is a recent shock… Food and fuel are more sensitive and respond first. There’s been no time for the effects to really get into the others. And Food and…
So a win will be returning to Obama’s Iran deal? And the reason no one brings up Ukraine is because we used more interceptors in three days than were sent to Ukraine in the entire 4+ years of war. It’s a complaint that…
“ For the US, the only pain is inflation” That is not correct and the comment you replied to even pointed out several ways it hurt the US other than that Inflation is the only Immediate pain. The other harms will play…
“It’s clear that Polymarket and Kalshi host these markets to serve bettors, not to produce useful information. Take Kalshi’s “Best AIs this week?” markets, which not only cover too short a time period to be useful in…
Yes my comment was a bit of a knee jerk reaction to seeing a statement, but take a pause and consider what caused it. It shouldn’t be surprising that a call for shrinking government after the doge fiasco raises counter…
I too pine for the days when we could easily have fun by lighting the rivers on fire to pass the time.
If gambling wasn’t about the money then it wouldn’t be centered around money.
Southwest was very different and I personally preferred it. But Now it’s undifferentiated itself. I have no reason to prefer it anymore other than if it’s the best on route and price. After all, it’s undifferentiated…
“ If you and I flip a coin for $100, there's no scam.” statistically over a time with a fair coin, they’re coming out even. Add in the house taking a cut each time, now everyone but the house is guaranteed to lose.…
No no no, the outcome revealed new information as the market intends! That info is that people had discounted the rare weather event “a 10% chance of localized hairdryers” on the day in question. The bettor predicted…
