A lot of people make good money by investigating companies and shorting the stock.
Those people do. Stock analysts who work for Wall Street don't always call a pig with lipstick for what it is, especially if their company they work for has business with that pig with lipstick.
Einhorn even wrote a book about one particular company he shorted. Read, "Fooling Some of the People All of the Time."
but in your mind anyone you disagree with is being insincere. see the problem?
I don't have a problem with someone wanting to talk to me about my health. I do have a problem with someone getting into my face to talk me about my health. One person is sincere and polite, the other person is insincere and confrontational. See the problem?
i'm no where near a fitness nut, but that lady is super obese and i'll be shocked if she isn't dead in the next 3 years at that weight.
As another poster pointed out, she's 350 pounds. I've been 300 to 400 pounds for my entire adult life. I'm 46-years-old. I don't smoke, I don't drink, I exercise regularly, I'm on a low-carb diet and I get my flu shots every year. I haven't seen a doctor in 16 years because the only thing I get each year is allergies. I've been hearing for years that I'm going to drop dead at any moment. I don't pay attention to that nonsense.
Because they're listening to the marketing folks to tell them what consumers want rather than showing consumers what their need. Steve Jobs was a master at showing.
Buying a phone that only phones home to China sounds more attractive, especially since they only want to steal my secrets, but won't SPAM me and resell my data to everyone who pays.
You trust the Chinese government more than the American government?! Traitor!
There have been no backdoors, albeit a lot of stupid security decisions that put Lenovo users at risk from people.
Right...
Lenovo is one of the world's largest PC brands, but it is also a Chinese PC brand. With the US and other Western countries increasingly looking at China's cyber warfare division as the next great threat, that was bound to create some issues. However, recent news revealing that spy agencies in the US, Britain, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand have prohibitions against using the company's products seem to be based on more than general suspicion.
Apparently, the ban stems from concerns that Lenovo, which is partially owned by the Chinese government's Academy of Sciences, has built "malicious circuits" into their machines. Testing allegedly proved the existence of backdoor functionality built into Lenovo-brand circuit boards, along with other vulnerabilities built into the firmware.
Pretty much every single smartphone is made in China. Regardless of brand, major or minor, "Western" (Apple, Microsoft/Nokia, rump-Nokia, Alcatel, or low-ends like Blu, etc.), "Developed World Asian"(Samsung, LG, HTC, etc.), or Chinese (Huawei, Oppo, OnePlus, etc.) as the "manufacturer".
How many of these companies have a reputation for inserting backdoors into their devices? Google moved away from Lenovo laptops because they found backdoors in the BIOS that linked back to China.
I would like to see taught in elementary schools is the art of drawing flow charts.
When I took Introduction to Computers at college in the early 1990's, we had to do flowcharts for our DOS programs. I still have the flowchart template from that semester.
When I went back to college to learn computer programming in the mid-2000's, flowcharts were no longer being used, and 3.5" floppies were already on their way out.
Most school districts will complain that they don't have enough money to buy supplies and/or reduce class sizes. But there's always money for building a new football. After my parents retired to Sacramento in the 1990's, my father drove me around the county and showed me all the new football fields that the schools were building. It was so shameful.
You were 400lbs of pure fat, just like every other morbidly obese fuck.
Nope. You're totally wrong on that point.
You're gonna talk to me about fitness when you spew out shit like this?
You're assuming that the human body is a perfect thermodynamic machine. It is — on paper. Individual people are deeply flawed thermodynamic machines. We're all different.
What do you think the first.com was? Valuations are back to insanity. People don't even talk of PE ratios, they talk of P:Gross ratios or P:Burnrate ratios.
A bubble is where ordinary people's money is flooding into the market after sophisticated investors have already made their money. Sophisticated investors are calling a halt on the unicorn bubble, affecting Wall Street more than Main Street. Ordinary investors have been sitting out of the stock market since the Great Recession.
I did 150 grams of carbs and ate whatever I wanted for four years. When I put a calorie cap on what I ate two months ago, it made a difference. I'll wait another four months before I reduce my carb intake.

Why would I get Android device in the first place?
I really doubt this is a "branch" of anonymous.
I have those doubts whenever the FBI arrests someone of Middle Eastern ethnicity for being a "branch" of Al-Qaeda.

Got it on my nightstand, haven't read it yet.
Anonymous Analytics is doing the one thing that stock analysis don't do!
I think you have your head up your ass, maybe you should come punch me in the mouth
Are you standing in my face? No.
Are you trying to intimidate me? No.
Are you threatening me with physical violence if I don't cower before you? No.
Do I care about your opinion? Oh, hell no.

They were allowed to drive themselves. Now they have cellphones. Won't be long before they're at the drive in, making out and having babies.

No one wants a cellphone that phone homes to China.
And who will teach the teachers?
The gym instructor.

I'm done.
I doubt that. ACs reply to me all the time.
At least Trump appears not wanting to police the entire planet - read "to start wars that favor the defense industry that pays campaign money".
Our allies would just declare war on the US because Trump is a threat to the world.
If Hillary gets elected I'm sure she'll start a couple of pointless wars.
You're confusing Hillary with George W.

I once was a fatty, I'm now off to ride 50km.
I used to ride my bike 20 miles per day for three years to a restaurant job in a different city. My weight during that time was 325 pounds.
i was 10lb 10oz. I'm a normal build at 33. Get your shit together, son.
I'm being lectured by a millennial. How cute.
Try 50 grams carbs day and eat what you want.
I did 150 grams of carbs and ate whatever I wanted for four years. When I put a calorie cap on what I ate two months ago, it made a difference. I'll wait another four months before I reduce my carb intake.
I updated my picture on Indie Book Lounge. Thanks for point that out!
You want Trump in charge of our nuclear launch codes?
FTFY - Oh, hell no!
