Don't go to college (Kurt Schliter)
"Don’t go to law school. In fifteen years, robots will probably be doing
most of what lawyers do today, and most of them will probably wear
better suits. Getting a law degree in 2018 is like getting a phrenology
degree in 1918."
Everything You Love Will Be Eaten (Current Affairs)
"Essentially, New York City used to be a gruff, teeming haven for weirdos and ethnic minorities. Now, it is increasingly full of hedge fund managers, rich hipsters, and tourists. Tenements and run-down hotels have been replaced with glass skyscrapers full of luxury condos. Old bookshops are shuttered, designer clothes stores in their place. Artisanal bullshit is everywhere, meals served on rectangular plates. You used to be able to get a pastrami and a cup of coffee for 50 cents! What the hell happened to this place?"
Cook County, IL primary election for assessor could teach Putin some new tricks (American Thinker)
"Say what you want about the legitimacy of Vladimir Putin's re-election; at least voters for his opponents were not instructed that their votes wouldn't count. You have to travel to Cook County, Illinois to see that kind of trick pulled off." IOW: You can vote for whomever you like. However, votes for this person will NOT be counted. Carry on.
The Real SUV We Can’t Have (Eric Peters)
"It is becoming extremely difficult to sell 'go anywhere SUVs built like the rugged SUVs of old' because they are heavy and heavy means big engines and that means a hearty appetite for gas. This however isn’t a problem for the people who buy such vehicles; they are – presumably – ok with paying more for gas in exchange for the ruggedness and go-anywhere capabilities."
