The ruling expressly states that they are free to pursue whatever tort claims they want. This ruling is about violations of constitutional rights and standing to sue under 42 U.S. Code § 1983 - Civil action for deprivation of rights.

You can buy an ARM Windows license for parallels on Mac now. It works quite well. I think WoA used to be exclusive to Qualcomm, but that hasn’t been true for at least a couple years, maybe longer.

But as the article states, the EPA allows you to import food crops treated with Chlormequat. Don’t ask me how that makes any sense

And yet they often do default. Look up sovereign defaults. Possible reasons why include things like “inflation is out of control because we’re printing money to cover the debt, and we’ll get voted out if we don’t do something”.

As a US worker that regularly interfaces with colleagues in various EU/UK sites, I am not at all surprised by the discrepancy. Edit: Elaborating… in my experience entire countries will be on holiday for up to a month at a time, while t

I mean, the actual material living conditions in the West Bank might be better, but don’t the Gazans at least have some form of sovereignty over their land? My understanding is that there is no real independent West Bank Palestinian governm

whoosh The sarcasm went right over your head. Of course the inherent greediness of companies & executives did not undergo wild swings during/after COVID, the idea is absurd on its face.

It’s fundamentally inflationary.

If Heinz is the only supplier of baked beans, that is literally just a monopoly. In that case you have a monopoly problem, not an inflation problem. Do you all not have private label brands? I’ve never been in a UK grocery store but it is h

It's likely that not every union member is striking, it is probably a sectoral union, e.g. the Swedish Dockworkers Union. There is still a lot of other dock-work to do besides unload Teslas, one would assume. So the union has 500 years

Also, not only is it possible, but many countries have in fact chosen to default on debt denominated in their own currency, rather than subject their citizens to wild inflation and/or break norms around reserve bank independence. So, i

It became this way because the industry intentionally rigged it this way through out-in-the-open collusion, via NAR and MLS rules.

Fundamentally you’re correct, but the much bigger incentive on BOTH sides is to close the deal quickly. If they spend twice the amount of time on the transaction, their earnings per hour get cut in half. That’s a much bigger impact then a f

No, and this was evidence used in the trial I believe. Commissions in peer countries have gone way down since the introduction of the internet to the process. Not so in the US.

Why would they have offered him ANY deal? (Do we know they did?) All the co-conspirators agreed to testify, and it was a slam dunk case. He could have plead guilty of his own conscience, of course, but no reason for the prosecution to offer

The appearance of figure 1 is due to the majority of counties being at / near sea level. Suppose we take as true that there is a direct link between altitude and some other phenomenon, for example rates of altitude sickness. If 90% of

I certainly agree that Boston and Massachusetts should reduce, or ideally eliminate, their restrictions on what housing can be built and where. The benefit of doing that instead is it would help approximately 1000 times the number of people

Family formation is delayed across the whole population, but I do think it's worth asking what can be done to support earlier family formation. (Given that many people are saying they are not having the number of kids they would like t

There are a lot of comparisons to Walmart having employees on food stamps, but I think it's worth pointing out that if you are paying federal minimum wage $7.25/hour, that is just $15,080 annually at 40 hours / week * 52 week

Why is it disgusting? Do you think Harvard should tell them NOT to apply for food stamps? At the current minimum annual salary of $40k, a single student wouldn't be eligible for SNAP amyways, the income threshold for a household size o

That may be the case, but just as an example, elite progressive opinion seems to have shifted to a nonsensical "pro-gun control, anti-arresting people for gun crimes".

I am anti-cruelty and suffering, but it is not always cruel to force someone to do something they don't want to do, and it is not always kind to give them what they want. If the choice is between them getting back on their feet but hav

You're making a lot of assumptions about what traumatic situations I may or may not have been in. Maybe it is because I have been through some shit that I realize sometimes we have to do "mean" things to people, sometimes for
