Haven't been back in a couple of years. I think I'll be visiting in a few months though. What's your secret to finding work and paying rent, isn't it expensive there?

As hackers, we should be able to look past all the heavy marketing and funding and see the idea beneath it. Airbnb has been a huge success in marketing and promotion, but what about the idea? Is the idea any good?

this is what has been on my mind the whole time this Airbnb thing has been making the rounds. I really don't think this is a good idea - and is doomed to fail. That's so much money too...

I felt it was a little hard to follow honestly. To me it felt more like a piece of creative writing than really trying to get at anything, politically/economically/philosophically/whatever. Nice writing, but it hasn't ch

Here's what the young lad should have done, had he had really thought about this: Use a LiveCD to boot with Tor on it, and also tether his cell phone to his computer, so he wouldn't have to go through the campuses wifi. Then the o

so why didn't he go to starbucks or something to do this, I would have anticipated all this. I guess he was running out of time, and under the pressure he made a careless split second decision.
