With legalization comes regulation, which is extremely beneficial, so it's better than just decriminalization. Like other commenter posted, the law shouldn't be the stigma-ruler we use to measure things. And I'll further that

I think there are different plateaus, for money there'll will be a point where it stops being as important as quality of social life, or quality of the work you do to earn it. However if you clear these plateaus I think you go back to

I am lead to believe that it's true since they seem to be struggling to fit things like a headphone jack in already pretty big phones.

I feel like your reply is almost condescending, a "you will know this once you're old enough" kind of argument. It's funny you mention teachers being bored because perhaps the problem is that teaching is done wrong, it&#

It's so funny but it's so true. I do feel it takes a similar degree of ad hoc research though, if you have the ability to learn how to program an app with certain degree of complexity then I believe you have the capacity to search

I just want to mention that Gaddafi brought a lot of development to Libya and his death did nothing for his people. It's easy to say "oh he was a dictator and dictators are bad" but it's not so simple.

Completing assignments and tasks that are not about learning, as they are about compliance. Examples: attending class (big one), repetitive assignments, pointless assignments where learning is minimal but tedium is maximized.

I am tempted to say "Ah, how mislead you are, when did you last go to university?", but perhaps there's really different universities from what I see as the norm, who knows, I'd feel you either experienced a stranger uni

it's probably much more difficult to reduce the size of the phone than to extend the screen. Think about specs such as battery life and processing power, smaller phone would have really tough competition, apps and mobile OS hoard all t

Yes! There is crazy amounts of dilly dallying with these analogies and there are implied points of logic that are not to belong in the actual technical concept, especially when teachers make it a point to say "these should be separated

Yes thank you, people seem to forget that the reason why STEM gets a higher paycheck is because there's less people willing to go for it, both female and male, the paycheck is not a prize you get for being male, it's a prize you g

this would not only explain why less women go into stem, but also why more guys go into it, as it is common for a guy to feel the onus of securing financial safety for his family. And not gonna lie, even I, a guy, picked STEM partly because

are you implying that male students who go for stem don't face bullying akin to being "geeky" or "nerds"? Please...

Your comment reads like a huge cope to yourself, case in point, the original comment was about being interested in exercise at all, not about exercising like an athlete.

wouldn't the result be all of these companies (or at least new ones) moving outside the US if they have the chance? Then US internet customers would be in a precarious situation compared to the rest of the world.

except it's not, it's as natural as a market bubble or a monopoly, look at higher education literally anywhere else, it isn't that expensive. The problem with the market of college is similar to that of medicine, people will
