...and the Nest devices I recently purchased will be getting returned immediately.

Any idea why?

Commenting a long while after the thread was active, but... there's no reason we couldn't rename other rounds too. The seed round could be the "traction round" and the Series A-Z r…

Well, if the government is going to drop money from helicopters, I would at least prefer they ATTEMPT to do so in a way that might lead to some scientific advancement. They could a…

This is a really interesting observation. I've never heard someone mention a "buffer/holding effect" before, but that makes a lot of sense. I wonder if it's something like... the a…

Right. For example, if we don't like the idea of someone with wealth but no income needing to sell off part of their land or stocks every year, we could attach a debt to them that …

Feasibility is a valid concern. Here's what I think. Stocks are traded on public exchanges. Land and buildings stay in one place. Private jets need to land at airports and they eac…

Good point, it is important that the rentiers do not spend as much as renters would, otherwise the same amount of spending would take place.

I'm coming around to the opinion that taxes on income are a bad idea. Income flows to people as they're trying to accumulate wealth, trying to climb from lower to middle to upper c…

And a major reason workers are spent out is because of high rents. If the US would build enough housing in the major employment centers that the highly skilled workers wouldn't spe…

Instead of injecting money top-down through the Federal Reserve and large banks, they could inject it bottom-up in selected industries. Invest $1 trillion in biotech. Some will suc…

For starters, have you visited every major city in Europe, including historically famous cities, sites of historical battles, capitals of smaller countries? Sampled the local cuisi…

Why not call it a "POC" (proof of concept) round, or "concept round", or "dice round"?

You could make a delete button which merely opens a popup to explain that they do not save it in the first place. That way if they're looking for a delete button, they'll find it, …

Also, the creator of this site can profit by 10% per year by working for 10% more than it takes to afford ramen noodles and live in a tent.

If the percentage of "good ones" is so high, why do they protect the "bad ones"?

I'm also interested in this. Please email me at jmorrow977@gmail.com to discuss in private. Others are also welcome to contact me there about this.

Someone please release a generic "generate event" button! (Or please tell me where I can get one... Googling for "wifi enabled button" provides irrelevant results). Below someone m…

To me this is a sign of organizational dysfunction that the money can't be moved from one pool to another.

Ask for a contract in the counter.

Apparently the payment is increased to $415M, which in my opinion is still too low. https://pando.com/2015/04/14/apple-wage-fixing-plaintiff-acc...

For the record, I never said it was a cure...

Never said that. Just said there was an article about this, and with my limited knowledge of biology it's a plausible thing that I'd personally try (along with everything else). Ce…

Another note: Don't you think it's worthwhile not down-voting every idea that hasn't become widely used? Certainly if I ever get cancer I hope that people throw every idea they eve…

As soon as our society's normal work-life balance supports this, let me know.
