Labor participation rates are historically low

The problem is compounded by the fact that students do not get to choose who their loan servicer is and thus a few servicers like Navient have a government approved monopoly on tha…

Highly doubt it. All the employees who came forward were jr customer service agents. Would anyone actually believe that board members would even know who they were, track them indi…

A lot of people travel and need luggage as well. I’m not suggesting Away would ever be worth anything close to Nike but is it realistic to think it could be worth several billion? …

You realize Lululemon makes yoga pants and has a valuation of $30B right? And Nike makes shoes and has a valuation of $150B? You don’t need to be a “tech” company to build somethin…

do you not think the reporter put that in the story to induce you as the reader to have this very reaction? i think her actions were wrong, but i also think this setup at the begin…

I don’t really understand why people say a tax on owned capital is so far fetched when we are all okay with property taxes which is literally a wealth tax on a subset of owned capi…

A middle of the road developer can make all of those things. You don’t need a 10x ninja in SF who demands 500k/year to do that. Highly doubt Schwab has really been competing on sal…

Schwab isn’t exactly competing for the “tech” talent pool so there isn’t anything particularly special about staying in SF vs elsewhere for them.

It’s pretty disappointing. Their share price has been completely flat since IPO. I’m surprised shareholders have not revolted against Jack being a part time CEO. Clearly there need…

Not sure what you mean by “super placebo”? Doesn’t seem right at all. The reason why these drugs are more effective in combination with therapy is because they, speaking from perso…

It might not be for that specific reason but there is a secret security check nonetheless

LAX international terminal tip: there’s a “secret” security check entrance on the baggage claim level meant for people who are connecting (and therefore needing to pick up bags) bu…

Not really following your logic. Why do you care as a customer if there’s variation in KYC requirements from vendor to vendor? Also not sure why this makes handling ID information …

You act like that doesn’t happen here...I just read a story in the LA times on how organs are being harvested from the recently deceased before a proper investigation can take plac…

It’s understandable it’s a touchy subject. Why piss off China if you don’t have to? Only something to lose and nothing to gain. Also this story of a Chinese Stanford professor/inve…

AirBNB is though if their operation there is anything less than a constant fire I would be surprised.

Their stock has been decimated. Tempted to still short it at this price. Very clear it’s not much more than a feature that has quickly been commoditized.

Generally these coupon sites all make money the exact same way - through affiliate programs that pay them some % of the purchase price for referring a customer to their site. Honey…

I really want to try DMT but terrified to do that without professional help nearby e.g. on an Ayahuasca retreat. I have experienced both LSD and shrooms but have heard DMT is on an…

That might be one of the best exits you could hope for as a founder or startup employee. Very little money raised to get to that valuation.
