For enough income, maxing out 401K is the one way to reduce taxes and keep your money.

We need an updated version of this: https://i.imgur.com/GxzeV.jpg

A symptom of the larger problem to want to divest and outsource everything not considered a "core competence". Hence the outsourcing of everything from housekeeping to IT

Also, get off my lawn.

ToS missteps notwithstanding, it's a bit more than your data surfaced back to you. You share your data and in return you get to share in other people's data. Fairly common communit…

In fairness, all of these firings are at public universities. The 1A applies at a much higher bar than a corporation. The shoe was on the other foot when conservative professors we…

The biggest issue is that enforcement and litigation is limited to the VA AG. You and I as wronged citizens can't go sue. That's corny capitalism. A sibling post that talked about …

Setting up for the eventual bailout. Remember - "we can't let banks fail or it'll be a depression"?

It's a mixed bag at best. The product has had numerous features pushed, but in the US, the navigation feature is objectively worse than 5+ years ago. Too much spoonfeeding of direc…

No different than a tech platform expanding into content. Like YouTube, Amazon and Apple. I understand your complaint, but those two worlds are intertwined beyond redemption now.

All the more reason to let states and local governments do more. Rather than a unitary congress or executive that only 1/2 the people (+/-) like.

Yes. Plenty is correct. Fidelity let's you buy SpaceX at IPO with only $2K in the bank. And there are other reasons to be cautious. Many passive funds don't license the SP500 and i…

Social security and Medicare are also payroll "taxes" in that they're not optional and are automatically deducted.

Au contraire, enacting such a law is akin to forcing FB to support certain speech. That itself is unconstitutional and any such legislation would be struck down.

NYC unions are not your average worker. In my north of NYC town the labor rate for a union worker is 3x that of non union..and state laws mandate govt projects must pay that rate.

Very much dependent on age, rest and general conditioning. I went from sea level to 14K at Pikes peak in 1 day and it was quite uncomfortable. I managed, but folks who lived in Den…

$100B isn't a startup. And if there's a $100B deal, you better believe the cash is there. Case in point - Netflix/Paramount wanting to buy WB. Or the $44B that Musk had to raise to…

Take it to it's logical conclusion. Free universal choice of schools rather than being tethered to your home address.

The revenue is in the ads. If they hit a decent run rate prior to the IPO then there's a viable path to profitablity and justification for the insane capex.

More WeWork than Theranos. Theranos was a fraud. WeWork was a legit real estate business with a SaaS multiple on valuations.

The headline is absolutely declarative. CBP can't comply. Period. That's not what CBP said, and the article itself has the nuance that the headline doesn't

True. But just changing the prompt to include "cite me cases" expands the search to court systems and actual cases. It's pretty useful as a first pass to get a sense for the issues…

There are rules. Networks have entire departments called Standards and Practices. But only because broadcasters don't pay for spectrum. Cable has laxer rules and almost none on any…

The down votes really reflect the groupthink here. American implementation of 1A is not perfect - tyrants still get around to suppressing speech they dislike. But it's so much bett…

Start by calling (or visiting the area office of) your senator and congressman. If you are reasonably articulate, they engage and listen. Doesn't matter if the listener is not a te…
