You can buy an ARM Windows license for parallels on Mac now. It works quite well. I think WoA used to be exclusive to Qualcomm, but that hasn’t been true for at least a couple year…

... you’ve never used hot water to fill up, say, a pot of water for cooking?

But as the article states, the EPA allows you to import food crops treated with Chlormequat. Don’t ask me how that makes any sense

Not for long, likely.

Protein powder supplements come to mind.

And yet they often do default. Look up sovereign defaults. Possible reasons why include things like “inflation is out of control because we’re printing money to cover the debt, and…

Yes, author doesn't seem to know what tragedy of the commons is either.

As a US worker that regularly interfaces with colleagues in various EU/UK sites, I am not at all surprised by the discrepancy. Edit: Elaborating… in my experience entire countries …

I mean, the actual material living conditions in the West Bank might be better, but don’t the Gazans at least have some form of sovereignty over their land? My understanding is tha…

whoosh The sarcasm went right over your head. Of course the inherent greediness of companies & executives did not undergo wild swings during/after COVID, the idea is absurd on its …

It’s fundamentally inflationary.

If Heinz is the only supplier of baked beans, that is literally just a monopoly. In that case you have a monopoly problem, not an inflation problem. Do you all not have private lab…

It's likely that not every union member is striking, it is probably a sectoral union, e.g. the Swedish Dockworkers Union. There is still a lot of other dock-work to do besides unlo…

No, and this was evidence used in the trial I believe. Commissions in peer countries have gone way down since the introduction of the internet to the process. Not so in the US.

Why would they have offered him ANY deal? (Do we know they did?) All the co-conspirators agreed to testify, and it was a slam dunk case. He could have plead guilty of his own consc…

The appearance of figure 1 is due to the majority of counties being at / near sea level. Suppose we take as true that there is a direct link between altitude and some other phenome…

I certainly agree that Boston and Massachusetts should reduce, or ideally eliminate, their restrictions on what housing can be built and where. The benefit of doing that instead is…

Family formation is delayed across the whole population, but I do think it's worth asking what can be done to support earlier family formation. (Given that many people are saying t…

There are a lot of comparisons to Walmart having employees on food stamps, but I think it's worth pointing out that if you are paying federal minimum wage $7.25/hour, that is just …

Why is it disgusting? Do you think Harvard should tell them NOT to apply for food stamps? At the current minimum annual salary of $40k, a single student wouldn't be eligible for SN…

That may be the case, but just as an example, elite progressive opinion seems to have shifted to a nonsensical "pro-gun control, anti-arresting people for gun crimes".
