Hedges and sets odds on the bets such that no matter the outcome, there is profit.
No we dont, free speech is only allowed in free speech zones. Doing it outside a designated zone means you get tazed in the junk by police.
That was really stupid. only a moron would throw it away, you could have easily got $50 on craigslist for it.

It needs a gps so it can rat on them if they are speeders. People who speed in residential areas need to have Progressive send someone out to punch them in the taint over and over until they understand that only scumbags speed in residential areas.
It's just one of the perks of Progressive.
Because the fuckers will not allow me to access my raw data. I don't care if my data is curing cancer, HONEST companies would let me at the data stream for my own uses.
What get's me is why hasn't anyone hacked the fitbit's data stream? you think there would have already been drivers that capture the data for you and keep it private or android apps that harvst the data and keep it away from the mothership.
I'm the NSA, we have always been in your house... and can you please change to 2 percent milk? Agent Jenkins is getting fat and starting to stick out from behind the TV.
The Ivy League was basically a formal gentleman's agreement (you know, back from the good old days where they banned women and blacks from campus and had strict quotas on Jews) that they would mutually agree to be terrible at sports in order to maintain high academic standards.
Everyone who attends an Ivy League school to play sports is someone who would have been a serious consideration for admission without their athletic ability.
Of course they're going to be terrible at sports. They don't have any black people on their team!
Until that day comes, I will refer to globalization with a more accurate name: "neo-feudalism".
Dude, you're the worst sort of person to argue with. You've demonstrated poor reading comprehension and a willingness to hand-wave away the distinction between similar words if you don't think they are relevant to you or serve your position. You seriously make me wonder why I even bother trying to express myself precisely
I never used the word explosion. I used the word detonation. I contrasted it with the deflagration that occurs in internal combustion engines like we see in cars.
A detonation occurs when the shock wave expanding out of the reaction zone compresses the unburnt fuel ahead of the wave, and the compressive heating raises the temperature in the unburnt fuel above it's autoignition temperature.
10 m/s is well below the threshold. Try 2000 m/s.
Detonation produces a more efficient combustion than deflagration, gives higher yields, and generates more kinetic force relative to the thermal energy released. It's a whole different kettle of fish.
H1B's can do the managements job a Lot better and a lot cheaper. There is far more savings in replacing everyone at the manager level and up.
Well, yea, except for losing a few letters...

Except he did not stop there. That's the problem. Allow me to re-state his original premise.
For a currency "X" there exists an amount "Y" at which (or below) no one will sell accurate bug reports to you.
When X = "pennies" and Y = "2" you can see how it works. Would you spend your time looking for bugs and reporting them for a possible payout of two cents per report? So at that point I can agree with him.
BUT THEN HE TRIES FOR A FALSE COROLLARY.
For a currency "X" there exists an amount "Z" at which (or above) people will sell accurate bug reports to you.
He uses X = "dollars" and Z = "10 million" there.
The reason it is a false corollary is that it depends upon a bug's existence being based upon the amount offered to find it.
