I love ING Direct. I just wish they offered Two-Factor authentication for "360" accounts. Relevant link: https://www.facebook.com/CapitalOne360/posts/101515573342295...

What do you do for services where you are needed once, maybe twice a month, for 1-3 hours at a time?

What kind of complete and utter idiocy is this? 50% of these brand new college students passed an entirely online course at a tiny fraction of the cost for the student, a tiny fraction of the cost for the university, at an infinitel

Wow, incredibly profound. THANK YOU. Upvoted. It is an extremely difficult thing to accept that one should not think of one's identity and aim in life by their employment, isn't it?

Great. More middlebrow dismissal. [1] Instead of just dismissing an article for the obvious points, try to identify at least one idea that could be considered novel or worthwhile. In this article, the suggestion of "X will inevitably be p

Did that really need a Wikipedia link? Haha. Also humorous: My Girlfriend: What are you reading? Me: I'm reading an article about this guy that turned down $300,000 from Microsoft to build GitHub. Her: What in the heck is a GitHub? Me: A

Ah, interesting. I was not aware that debt and income were related favorably in that way. So how do you attract high earners with a lot of debt (but still low debt-to-income)? That sounds extremely difficult.

It could be that your target market (people in debt) is one in which people have a lower ability (or willingness) to spend. (Google Ramit Sethi's Pay Certainty test.) In that case, perhaps an alternate revenue system can be found. Maybe som

I'm more interested in seeing Soylent succeed as a benefit to people around the globe who literally cannot afford (or don't have access to) a proper healthy diet.

I agree. I often record the audio off a video (if I can't directly download it) and listen to it at 300% speed when I'm doing other activities that don't require mental focus.

Excellent comment. Thank you for this. I'll keep this in mind next time I'm losing steam through a particularly tough CrossFit WOD. "Today, I want to win." Amazing. Thank you. +1

You're welcome! I love HN Notify. It's funny but I saw it off of someone else's profile too! Email notification for HN is definitely awesome. I wish someone made one to give +1 upvote notification too.

Thank you for your advice. +1. I put my personal contact information in my profile for the entirety of the internet to see. I wonder who the heck is going to call me? Well, there it is.

Amazing! This is the first time I see this. Thank you for posting it! I was getting sick of always scrolling left and right to read comments. I wonder why this site hasn't been updated with that in mind. Anyway, thanks again!

Ah, I think there may be some confusion as to how Gmail works. The purpose of labels in Gmail is that you can click them and see all the emails with that particular label. This is analogous to a folder in Windows XP or Windows 7 with files

I simply change the filter. The first time I see an email that gets filtered that I don't want filtered in the future, I simply add that email to the whitelist. It takes me 15 to 30 seconds, and now it is set forever. A) Gmail filters aren'

Here is the method that I use, which has been extremely effective for me. This is a Gmail filter that will leave in your inbox ONLY emails that are from people you specify, AND emails that haven't already been labeled from some other filter

Thank you! I was thinking along the same lines but I figured I should quit posting since everyone seemed to be attacking me. Thank you for making me feel like my attempt at a positive message was worthwhile. +1 Upvote from me.
