What's the right way to ask, "is my manager or supervisor taking Adderall?" I need a manager that can listen for two minutes, not one that's on a drug that compels them to speak in ten minute long stream of consciousness rants.

The advantage of betting on a horse is that the next race is in 10 minutes. You buy a call on the price of MSFT, for example, and you're going to be waiting a while before you can place another bet.

And there are notoriously betting groups around the world that have made fortunes off of betting on horse racing. I'd bet that they feel superior to people betting on commodities and productive assets when they could be betting on horses.


So, how could one manipulate differences of opinion in order to turn a profit on a site like Kalshi?


> IDK if the left is as tied up in it as the right

Democrats dominate the legislature in California, and they are deep in the pocket of Indian gaming.


Concern trolls will ask who's going to pay for the free buses, and wonder if they'll be overrun by the homeless or other vilified residents of New York.


Yeah it's not like homeless people pay for the bus, whether there it's free or not.


I think it has something to do with using a 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 DNS server. I'm using my ISP's DNS server and it's loading fine for me.

> Gambling is not inherently addictive.

What do you reckon makes gambling go from not inherently addictive to a real addiction?


> This is what government is for

In my home country, the people building the robots and job destroying AI have captured all three branches of government, and have been saying for over 40 years that they'd like to shrink government down to a size that they could drown it in a bathtub. The government can't be relied upon to do more than move its military into our cities to violently stifle dissent.


> They'd probably do it happily even without a warrant

I'm old enough to remember when companies were tripping over themselves after 9/11 trying to give the government anything they could to help them keep an eye on Americans. They eventually learned to monetize this, and now we have the surveillance economy.


> There are no entry-level jobs, because "entry level" now requires years of experience

This was my experience leaving college in the dot-com bust 25 years ago, and I heard it was similar for graduates around 2008-2012.
