Also, insurance. $200/month is a normal rate where I live (with a clean driving record).

Provinces and federal government set taxes on gasoline, cigarrettes and alcohol. The amount they can tax (as much as the consumer will bear) is likely highly researched. They want to tax as much as possible without discouraging reduced cons

Agreed. The advice to ignore competitors and focus on customer feedback is great when you're small and a solo Dev. As the company grows and you can dedicate other resources, you can start monitoring and selectively copying competitors.

Having spent time with Muslim friends around Ramadan, I have no doubt that this is due to OVEREATING after sunset and before sunrise. I've seen people pack 3000 calories into 2 meals when they should be getting 1500-2000, especially wi

Usually $0.60-$0.70/sqft. Some terribly built and managed buildings are higher. If you're at 600 square feet I wouldnt expect to pay more than $450/month. This is however much less than the repairs and maintenance on a house.

They're small, to be sure. You get 400-500 square feet. Enough to eat, sleep, work a little from home and watch movies with company. Perfectly livable. There's both modern and older buildings at that price range.

I live in Toronto. It's relatively expensive, but the rent prices don't factor in tons of things: 1. You don't need a car, carshares like Zipcar work great, which saves $1000/month ($200/month parking, $200/mon

This is more of a problem with time frames. Wooden houses last 100-200 years if very well built. I've seen teardowns after 50, sometimes less. What's the environmental cost of building 4 wood buildings to last as long as 1 concret

40mg is normal. 60mg is high dose. 80-120 is absolutely abuse except in 0.1% of the population that just doesn't respond. 20mg XR has me uneasily wired for 18+ hours. Rarely take it because of that.

I can't speak to mom and pop shops in small towns. I think while the concept is the same, this would be more along the lines of the town opening it's own discount store and putting the mom and pops out of business. But I can attes

The problem with this is that it's built in the backs of brands who were at one point well recognized brands on Amazon. Amazon took their sales data, determined it was a good market to move into, created specifications and reached out

I 90% agree with this. The other 10% realizes that if you had warnings and waivers for every fringe case, you'd have the worst UI in the world and had a worse UX for 99.9% of the people it didn't apply to. Do you want them to disc
