Speaking of Google, you can now choose from endless online courses, universities, academies, and learn anything you want without forcing poor teachers to slave for peanuts (except maybe recording the initial lectures). They are now free, if not will soon be, to pursue their deserved high paying jobs in the private sector.
Average Kansas teacher gets paid $53,314 (https://www1.salary.com/KS/Public-School-Teacher-Salary.html), before benefits. There are an average 180 days in a school year, with 6.64 hours in a school day, so 180*6.64=1195.2/$53,314=$44/hour. Raise your hand if you make close to $44/hour before benefits.
is that like having 2 collision avoidance systems, Uber's and Volvo's, and not disabling Volvo's system, instead of solely relying on Ubers beta product to not run someone over? https://www.autonews.com/artic...
RTFA - "GM is shedding cars largely because it doesn't make money on them, Citi analyst Itay Michaeli wrote in a note to investors."We estimate sedans operate at a significant loss, hence the need for classic restructuring,"
So I write a book, take it to bunch of publishers, it doesn't get printed. You "happen" to write a similar book and it gets published or made into a movie. Guess what?
Fine, apply it equally. Book manuscript, publish it or lose it. Movie script, make it into a movie or lose it. Logo design, use it or lose it. Painting, sell it or lose it. Book manuscript, turn it into a movie or lose movie rights. Photography, sell it or lose commercial rights.
Big pharma is only able to overcharge because the FDA creates a virtual monopoly, through its costly and lengthy process at the end of which very few companies are allowed to make a drug. Try to make an Epi-pen and sell it, it only costs like $30 to make. Auto-injectors were created in the 1970's and the patents on it has expired a long time ago. We have no overcharge issues with non-prescription (non-FDA monopoly) drugs.
Hey, I got an idea. We'll let people who live in Moscow vote on NYC laws. Or we'll rotate between Moscow and Pyongyang every 4 years. Get rid of this pesky self-governance/democracy nonsense.
The first Big Mac cost $0.45, the first model T $850, cost of a suit in 1930 $30. Today, what kind of hamburger can you buy for $0.45 what kind of car you can buy for $850, and suit you can buy with $30? No inflation here, no sir. Just orderly theft of your purchasing power. Forget 1930's, compare house prices from today to 2000, did we run out of land? Did the population double? triple? Don't worry, people with ability to print infinite money will be responsible. Just as I would be responsible if I had the power to mint infinite Bitcoins.
Maybe if governments around the world didn't print money like confetti and debase their currencies, people wouldn't have to resort to cryptocurrencies. Because even cryptocurrencies developed by 15 year olds have set number of coins that can be mined, unlike fiat money which can be printed to infinity.
The crash of 2008 was good for America, unless you wanted overpriced homes, overpriced rents, and overpriced stocks. But don't worry, we have reinflated the housing and stock market bubbles. Enjoy paying $2000/month for a studio apartment and buying overpriced stocks that drop by 50% after you bought them.
Housing prices we're going to normal after the 2007 bubble and the resulting 2008 market crash. Then the politicians and the Federal Reserve decided to fix it through home buyer tax-credits and 0% interest rates. Now house prices are back to record levels. Thank you for fixing the problem of low home prices, low rent, low property taxes, and low home insurance rates. Thank you. *Slow clap*
Does this mean they will not be buying self driving AI from Google? Which Google spent $1.1 billion on? No worries, I'm sure another car maker will use Google tech, just like Google is using search algorithms developed by Pep Boys.
Why would a cellphone emit RF into the persons head? Why not shield the face of the phone or have a bunch of directional transmitters and if the proximity detector detects the persons head turn off the transmitters that point towards the face of the phone? It's not going to be 100% effective, but even 10-30% RF reduction is better than nothing.
Here is the top youtube video showing ADHD vs non-ADHD child. Does the girl have ADHD or is she just anxious? Look at how she sits and how the boy sits. Count how many times the boy smiles and how many times the girl smiles (hint: zero). If the girl is the top example of ADHD, I can give 100 children ADHD interviews and classify a large portion as having ADHD. Of course I would be impartial and have no stake in classifying kids as having ADHD and charging for weekly counseling, writing prescriptions, etc.
If you get a degree in Art History and you work at Burger King, the school still gets paid. If you do a startup, school still gets paid. If you teach yourself engine repair and be a mechanic, school still gets paid. Just like student loans. Schools will always get paid regardless. This solves nothing. It's just more creative financing options to sucker in High School students into debts they cant repay with their useless degrees.

If only we allowed "stable genius" politicians to dictate how citizens and companies invested their money, things would be so much better.

Before everyone starts attacking short sellers, they actually provide checks and balances against bubbles and fraud.

Is there a website where researchers can post research projects and I can donate per project depending on what I think is important?
