“If the costs of manufacturing a good go up, the manufacturer must charge higher prices thereby decreasing demand for the product.”

That is nowhere close to Econ101. There is so much confusion in both the article and this comment.

I’m surprised so many takes on the other post-fight piece basically say Khabib is totally understandably. It was a horrible decision to create a post-fight brawl.

“Just a thought, but perhaps the women whose careers were stymied after they complained about CK’s sexual misconduct have some ideas about what the correct sentence should be in this case?”

Call me cold, but I’m pretty sure asking someone who has a particular job whether that particular job should earn moreoney, and you’ll only ever get 1 answer. This is hardly any investigation into the merits of each argument.

I love that a 4% interest rate is considered “crazy”.

Cool.

Chris Thompson is sort of the Jemele Hill of deadspin....total confusion about the difference between fact and opinion, and no desire to objectively reason. Why use reason when it is so much more satisfying to vilify those who disagree with you?

Yes it’s creepy. And if I’d known those girls I would’ve given them advice to steer clear.

Let’s give MJ credit for responding to Trump the way most should. This is exactly how to defeat Trump in the next election. Make it boring. Don’t play his game.

I feel like this is a situation where the younger person can’t fathom what it’s like to be in the older person’s shoes.

Any discussion of segments of the market built around price is going to be confusing when talking about shifting price.

Can we talk about how that lay-up wasn’t going to go in until the other Celtic player “blocked” it? Is that part of the narrative?

It’s possible there was “something wrong” with the cat. At the same time, predators are going to prey, yeah? It’s a horrible tragedy. And extremely rare. Just like being struck by lightning. Don’t stand in open fields during heavy lightning, or under trees......and yet, every once in awhile, somebody’s ass gets smoked…

This is what happens when we try to make a rule / regulation for every single tiny insignificant issue. Why does the rule exist? Because the players aren’t comfortable letting anyone in the league use basic human judgment to determine when cleats / accessories are distracting or otherwise in poor taste.

and by “this” I mean Albert’s piece, not anything that happened at the silly WHCD.

This is the kind of refusal to honestly grapple with reality that is going to get Trump elected to a second term. The social justice warriors are going to have to be pulled from the far left more towards the center or they will continue to be on the losing end of elections. I say this and I didn’t even vote for Trump.

I don’t know if this is rational, but I absolutely detest CVTs. They remind me of my grandfather’s first generation John Deere Gator. So much noise, so little responsiveness. I would much rather see a return to more manual offerings.

Investigations are supposed to be secret? What could possibly be gained by requiring this photo, and others like it, to be hidden from the public?

While the question about the autopilot may not be framed in the best way, in my opinion there’s no good that comes from filling in all the gaps of what we don’t know about the person who asked with assumptions that they are a sexist pig and all-around awful person.
