The submission is actually about ad harvesting by a blogger linking to NYT article written by someone who know nothing about subject matter for the sole purpose to gather eyeballs in first place.
How this amounts to "news" or anything remotely worth putting on /. is completely beyound me.

Until then the question is moot.

It means that they do not even bother hiding.

Those as much distracting as phones and are used way more often.

Seems like turning diesel spent on this "fishing" into chairs would be both more economical and environmentally friendly. I suspect the real reason to fish plastic is to enjoy sailing in warm waters on someone else's dime.

I would guess that given the implosion of US market volume and all that space built out recently demand for DC space is just not there. Smart players (like BATS for example) are picking up space freed up by other at discount. Looks like JPMorgan is not in this category.

Do not make it sound like $133/person is all they are going to get.

I have to disagree. The only way to get hungry in US is to blow all your food stamps on liquer and dope. It's actually hard to stay fit with all cheap junk peddled on every corner. If you think a dude on a street with a cardboard sign "Just hungry" is really do not have anything to eath try to give him a sandwich.

he's obviously unqualified to discuss any real science topics.

Some people get this idea about mister market by observing differences between exUSSR where they grew up and USA where they live now.

That is, you make your money back in 99 years. Toda it is about 120 P/E. Someone bought shares from MZ and early stakeholders including employees on public market on their free will.
Q: who failed basic arithmetics in this transaction?

Open your wallet even wider!

None of them is going to major in math and science in college but go for soft degrees and later attempt to govern us.

... what they are doing now when Olympics involve aircraft carriers, SAMs on rooftops and sonic guns. Me, I stopped giving sh..t about these natinal dick contests by IOC long time ago.
