    I like the notion of breaking job satisfaction into "motivators" and "hygiene factors" (Herzberg's motivation-hygiene theory [1]). Motivators actively cause job satisfaction. Thing…

    If your "shields" went down because you had a negative workplace experience, but then you found out that you could double your salary once you started looking, I think it's totally…

    Fees and chargebacks are the ones that usually come to mind. Oftentimes major credit card provider networks set a "minimum" interchange fee to disincentivize small transactions (a …

    Precious metals are also risky long-term in that we don't know how "precious" they truly are in a solar system-wide context. We can make well-informed guesses, but until there are …
