“ Because those required wage increases take effect this week, existing H-1B holders looking to renew their visas might not qualify unless their employers raise their salaries accordingly.” This is really bad. Families are going to get told

Any data to backup that claim? What you are saying maybe true for very high profile breaches - but for most firms, the "has a high degree of debt to income ratio" is a decent signal to decide if that person may have reasons to be

I am not new here. And the tech-migration is a relatively new thing in the Western world. I would wait a generation for that thinking to evolve.

There isn't a service offered by a credit bureau that I know, which allows an employer or a lender to find out about a prospect's salary. Salary info is used for credit risk strategies, and only where applicable or allowed.

Continuity is really a crutch for identity, and to reduce risk. My bet is once - Apple Pay on Safari on macOS & iOS via iPhone/watch - qualifies for a lower rate, Apple could open up Apple Pay to other browsers, cross platform - on

I am an Indian. I don't care about the portrayal of India in a story such as this - I care that these things still happen. I am also tremendously proud that I am born in the same country as these badass women.

What you are talking about is essentially the tokenization concept which should become real in 2014. All retailers such as Amazon would become Token requestors in this concept. Advantages would be to essentially make these breaches irreleva

Google acquires Bump. It's not the "bumping" that's valuable. It's figuring out two people are in proximity to each other that allows them to bump - that's Gold.

Ironic. More over, this is exactly why AirBnB should not become an identity store (asking their customers to become verified by scanning and sending their passport info). I do not trust them with my identity.

How is this tripe modded up? A software donkey? Has it ever occurred to this guy that he is talking about another human being? And has history belonged to only those who passed through the hallow halls of Stanford? WTF?

I have my reservations about the viability of a Klarna type approach in the US - where there is a high level of credit card penetration among the US customers. Since Affirm will require customers to choose that as a payment option, over oth

I blog and whenever I hit a lull, I find that a walk or run is what gets me back on track. The chaos in a normal work week, the number of meetings, the constant context-switching all leads to little chance of forming coherent string of thou
