IMO Amazon returns are easier than ever. You don't even need to box it up, just drop the item off at Whole Foods. I feel like my local Whole Foods is at least 20% an Amazon returns depot these days.

I suspect this is the case of a retailer prisoners dilemma - if one retailer offered no-questions-asked returns and one did not then the one offering returns would get a lot more business. If neither of them offered unlimited returns they&#

He's not viral because of charity, he's charitable because he was already a highly viral video creator. It's not a comment on his videos, it's a comment on the NY Times framing.

I used neither the words "good" nor "bad" so I think you're responding to something that I didn't write.

It's a flywheel with exactly one input: YouTube. If YT changes their rules or payout schedule tomorrow, it all goes away. But sure, for the time being he's hit the infinite charity glitch.

"Mr. Beast built his channel by taking all profits from each video and plying it into the next video" To me this seems like a semi-obvious minmaxing solution to making popular videos: make essentially zero profit, regardless of re

He just wants to design products without caring how they make money? That's how money-losing products get designed.

Common Core was as much about the "common" as it was about the "core." It's not the previous standards were bad (or even different from current standards) but that there were 50 of them instead of one nationwide.

Or they're incredibly highly leveraged. They bought one home, fixed it up, rented it out, worked up to 20% equity and then immediately went out and got another mortgage and then another, etc. Many of them are one mistake or rate change

Sunnyvale Goodwill is the best for this. I don't know why but I always get a kick out of seeing mugs for things like NASA projects from the 90s or some Intel internal milestone award where the mug is just covered with acronyms that mea

For San Jose's sake I hope it's not completely abandoned. But the combination of the failure of RTO and interest rates rising above zero is going to be pretty hard on commercial real estate developers for quite a while.

Considering people still go to Bing just to type "Google" I think the answer is no.

Yes it does and yes it's wild. A few years back you could have gotten a million-dollar 30-year fixed mortgage loan at like 2% interest. Nowhere else can you get that sort of long-term locked in borrowing rate.
