    So many parallels with my experience moving from the US to France. Things aren't as easy to get done here. I'm pretty hot today with my struggling, portable AC. We have to wait for…

    To be clear, I'm not wishing for evidence of whether RTO is good or bad. I want evidence that proves "it's about cheap layoffs" or "it's about real estate" or "it's because they wa…

    I might be too late for you to see this, but I'm curious why your final example requires the function "f" to receive the canWrite channel. I must be missing something. Couldn't the…

    "So... Taxes?" If we're talking about wealth not income, then no, not really. We don't usually think of asset seizure as "taxes". In other words, one "taxes" flows (like capital ga…

    The authors write that it's "counterintuitive " that in states with low crime and efficient beaurocracies, the uberrich tend to conceal or relocate their wealth more. See: "This su…

    As a newly minted cynic, this seems like a cynical play to save someone's budget. Step 1: Post discreetly to a forum with minimal information and an absurdly short deadline Step 2:…
