    How does a tiny error, in an aside and unrelated to the greater point, made at near the end discredit the rest of it?

    That graph of internal adoption rate is laughable. Their KPIs and work requirements probably heavily skewed the curve.

    The same people who think "banned" and "censored" books must be completely banned and censored in all places to have earned that title instead of just at one point in the past.

    Yes, the article discusses how 98% is good in context and bad in others. You just... restated the article but reversed the premise, resulting in an overly optimistic yet anti-socia…

    Some states are trying to fight against Kalshi. One of the problems is the President's family has a financial interest in these markets and so the Republican party does their best …
