This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

No they don’t!
This creates a need for the law to distinguish between grocery stores and restaurants, leading to artificial barriers to innovation within the marketplace.
Laws should be simple, and create a level landscape on which people can make design choices motivated by utility, instead of adherence to the unnatural incentive landscape of a highly-varied legal system.
It only takes O(1) effort to adapt one’s brain to nature, and to the set of societal arrangements that naturally arise within nature. It takes O(N) effort to adapt one’s brain to new sets of rules that change the incentive landscape, where N is the number of times the rules change.
