Divorce is way more expensive than your savings. I went through this; you save $12-16k/yr for 10 years and if you invest the difference smartly, it's $300k. Without a prenup, and m…

I notice this with my Uber cash credit I get from my AMEX Gold card. The prices are always higher.

Something's off here. The data appears as "life-expectancy-table.json" but the title refers to Income. Not sure where the mistake is.

This might be a naive question but how does one determine what "best" is for multiple subjects? Even in your example, physics and mathematics could be curated for "best" when deali…

> Here I am, just fine, a self-made millionaire today. That says everything about how you view the world. "self-made". Nothing about how your adoptive father contributed, your peer…

Property values should not be an investment or retirement fund, it is selfish to think so. Literally, by definition, if you think the value of YOUR home and SOME of your neighbors …

OP is not arguing against cars completely, they just have very limited use within high density city centers. Most people can travel by foot, bike, scooter, bus, train, trolley, etc…

A friend works at Vertex and couldn't tell me for the longest time what the secret sauce was. The FDA approval was the only thing blocking their right to basically print money. It'…

You should look at home price growth for California in the last 15 years, Irvine isn't even in the top. The Bay Area, parts of LA and San Diego lead the pack in price increases. Yo…

> almost any house in irvine is a 10 minute walk from a grocery store and a handful of fast casual restaurants. How many people actually walk in Irvine? Based on the number of high…

Isn't Irvine full of strip malls, copy/paste corporate restaurants / chains and lack identity or urban planning (With public transit, lots of parks, walk-ability)? I fail to see wh…

I wish I could find the other HN comments from the last few years but I have seen your exact comment from different people over the last 2 years. Why has nothing changed? If so man…

I have seen some arguments that they don't care about your privacy and it's all right there in the privacy policy if you're willing to read it. A video on the subject [1] [1] https…

Core inflation is going down, just not as fast as other sectors. People losing their jobs is not a hard fact of a recession, we have one of the lowest unemployment rates in history…

I don't think I'm following, you didn't "lose" anything if you didn't sell. Even if you invested in 2007 at the peak and lost 50% of a 100% S&P500 portfolio by 2009, by now you'd b…

Hot take but I'll bite, what's your rationale? We're only ~9% down from VTI's ATH and what happens now doesn't matter when your investing horizon is 15+ years.

Super cool trip down memory lane. I remember finding your site eons ago when I was in high school too. It's cool seeing some of the most popular shows there like Revision3, it remi…

I lived in Potrero Hill (I see you misspelled it, are you familiar with the neighborhood?) for over a decade and can tell you it didn't feel safe at all. Had a bike stolen from my …

It's funny because it reminds me of stories my grandparents told me about communism in Eastern Europe where the higher ups would come inspect their factories and the execs would kn…

Did you bother to browse the entire page? There are videos showing live editing and changing a backdrop. This is a teaser of a live product that is actually working remarkably well…

Why doesn't this work? Lion -> Cabbage -> Goat->

Could you expand on your idea of how taxpayers are subsidizing mortgage rates and downpayments?

Wow...that does sound quite exceptional. My wife got 50% of all my RSUs and all other equity I earned throughout my career. Nothing I could do about it since it was earned during o…

> You’re entitled to keep a larger portion of it (as you get a credit for it). Doesn't this depend on if you have a pre-nup especially in states like CA? I got married super early …
