Considering English isn't your mother tongue, you write well. Better than many college students I've met. Since studying French, I have a new found admiration for those who know a second language. I wish you success!

If a prospective client isn't willing and able to <i>enthusiastically</i> pay 1/3 upfront, you should run, run far away. I wish you the best of luck in getting paid in full!

I'm conflicted about this post. I think your expressions are heartfelt, but it sounds like you've been window shopping when you don't have the funds to buy. If you knew you didn't have the money to fairly pay for this designer's services, w

Hmm, is this some cosmic hint for me to get my client work done today, as I promised? The timing of this post is a bit uncanny, but very motivating. Time to get back to work.

In the past few years I've only used Kubuntu, which is a fine OS. KDE is the only GUI I use. I think Microsoft's Windows 8 is going to make KDE look very old. Innovation would be welcome.

Let's face it, there will be times when you'll have to work without motivation and inspiration. It's in those situations where efficiency and giving yourself rewards and treating yourself well are extra important. Basketball star Kobe Bryan

When an email tries to be sneaky with the old "Manage my Preferences" trick, I flag it as spam. They should know better. BONUS: if anywhere in the email they mention the word "webinar", they're gone.

Even if sexist ads sell, are they good for society? Or do they trivialize and objectify women and give children unrealistic, toxic stereotypes to live up to. And yes, these ads are stupid. Stupid because they lack originality and intelligen

I think this article is highly relevant to HN readers. It's about marketing and challenges the notion that sex sells. Personally, I think using hot women and sexual innuendo is insulting and played out. I have three daughters and I don't wa
