> They own their farm > barely above the poverty line. Doesn't really add up. Any guesses on how much a farm in Vermont costs? It's not cheap. Big hunch the money for that farm cam…

I absolutely disagree that this type of "home schooling" should be legal. I do believe it is child abuse. These people should be treated just any parent that does not enroll their …

The other reply to this talking about depriving your child of an education etc, is exactly what I would say. And absolutely, yes I feel that this is definitely child abuse.

Even if that were true, I would have learned much less as there were many things I and many children learned via reading far before the age of 11. So while they supposedly caught u…

The concern I'm trying to relay here is that at this point no regulator wants to be seen as asleep at the wheel while the next Uber / Airbnb grows to become an 800 pound gorilla. I…

It's amazing how one can take the parity achieved via competition and relay it unilaterally to the quality achieved via competition.

Right, but thanks to Uber et al and their complete and flaunting disregard for regulations, regulators are now getting hyper aggressive in return. In the past the slow movement of …

We're finally getting the over the top push back that all those maybe legal startups kept asking for. This is what happens when you keep poking someone(the regulators) with a stick…

I just call those two SafarIE. Safari is shaping up to be the new IE so we might as well just say them in one phrase instead of always specifying them both.

ugh more OSX embrace extend extinguish. Apple doesn't even have to pay people to write more lock in anymore.

I just want to add how important your browsing choice is. Everytime you visit a site you vote for a browser. Its one of the easiest ways to help keep the web open.

They are sold in parcels. There isn't like a list of debtors in default the bank maintains that you can go pick from. It's more like here's 1,287 loans defaulted on, worth a total …

Exactly. Buying your debt off for a penny on the dollar is probably the stupidest thing you could do financially. You would be trading $10,000 in credit card debt, with a fair amou…

I feel like I would be safe saying 99%(if not all) of this paper is not small business paper. These are the debts that are sold off in large parcels by banks and credit card compan…

Father was a personal injury lawyer. Son was a debt collector. Solid family values over at the Seigels.

I'm very glad this video talks about the most likely first to be removed. I'm so confused why everyone thinks the least expensive to purchase(low skill labor) will be replaced firs…

Because success in the US is 90% networking and who you know.

I think it's funny how the same NIMBY policies that all the techno-libertarians hate so much, are the same policies that made San Francisco a more desirable place to live for said …
