Did they say that when asking people to stay home or did they tell people they would be safer at home?

Yeah the author was definitely off topic there. Maybe they are unaware of how hard it can be to move around the world at a moments notice. I believe golf courses and the other facilities are hugely beneficial to our service members and are

Yep your link (kind of) worked. It's not loading quickly or entirely.

Oh, I didn't even notice there was a page 2... Interesting though, wonder if there's any crossover with their "Smart Home" projects.

Yes strictly looking at the murders SF has seven, for comparison, my hometown (150k pop.) in the middle of nowhere has six murders. Chicago has five times more people than SF and I know without checking sources there's been more murders in

I know many companies that offer visa assistance. Some of which offered jobs to friends. Not every company/startup is willing/prepared to do the work necessary though.

Yes I did find a job with DA! I just moved to SF on Sunday. I have a few years of experience as a developer (cofounder/employee) and a few more as a contractor. I also have a number of personal projects and contest entries. In my opinion yo

Clear throttles customers after a certain threshold. In addition ozi's comment is accurate.

DANGER! I've been a clearwire customer, their service sucks. You'll get good service up to a certain amount (at or below 1gb by my experience), then you'll be throttled back to 1999 for the rest of your billing cycle. DANGER! Also see ozi's

I've been doing lots of interviews lately. Most of the coding questions have been fun, and I've learned. Some have been just plain strange - they seem like well intended questions in a specific context (which I'm not aware of). Those are th
