One trick I've been doing recently is I've reduced my cell phone internet plan to a monthly cap with rollover. And then I only turn on my cell internet when I really need it for something. This has changed my default behavior patt

Wouldn't something like Ride Austin also face the same problems as Uber, which is to say, they need to hire every driver as an employee which they do not at this time

I primary drive the latest version and its my favorite mac to date (and I have the pro + imac + ipads + iphones). I have found that if you have a little bit of patience for loading, everything works just fine and the form factor beats every

One use of 5g would be better streaming upload speed, that can open up a lot of interesting use cases. Another use case is streaming + AR, I can see that becoming crazy bandwidth intensive. I think there can be some cool games if we can get

Another point. Especially with these content based services, it's all about the next piece of content you can provide. For example, if Dave Chapelle signed an exclusive deal with Quibi, then all of a sudden those 92% that didn't w

I think the thought process is that paper money is already controlled by world governments, so this isn't meant to be a replacement for paper money, but rather just an intermediary so the transfer of money can be done more easily and c

Another one! I love the weather here too. That's my favorite part, no need for A/C or worry about the snow. I love the fresh fruits and vegetables and going to the farmer's markets to find what's in season. We're so

Empirical data shows those from upper middle class families tend to do better than those living near the poverty line. Seems pretty well documented at this point.

I think you're underestimating how much of the inequality has been baked in by Junior year of High School. 16 years of living a life where parents and teachers nurture the students for maximum growth is going to be easily reflected in

It's an island between SF and Oakland. Some people live there, probably in the few thousand I'd imagine. Very few businesses on the island.

Congratulations. We've recently decided to go with Paypal Pro for better rates on micropayments. Do you guys plan to have a similar program soon?

The reason why your solution is not good is because it pigeon holes the government into expectations. The government doesn't have a crystal ball as to how this all plays out, they need to have the flexibility to change how they want to

This definitely isn't "private". It's just obfuscated.

The Fitbit looks pretty close. I don't think it's perfect, but it's directionally correct. I feel like for a lot of self improvement frameworks it's about direction not accuracy. Like for example, body fat % machines var

Waffle House is so good. I was on a road trip between New Orleans and Atlanta and stopped at a Waffle House in the middle of Alabama. Biggest surprise in terms of expectations and food quality. It's like the In-n-out of breakfast food.

I took tests in the 1600 era. I came from one of the best public high schools in California. I would say 80%+ of the high school had SAT prep, every single one of the people I talked to at school had SAT prep. If you're not including s

Balance is a false paradigm, not all ideas are valid, ie. just because some people believe the earth are flat doesn't mean that in school we have to teach the earth is both flat and round. (a more 50/50 idea would be evolution or

This is what I do too, but I have it as a general list of things I want to get done like [] Mon - task 1 [] Mon - task 2 [] Tue - task 3 [] Tue - task 4 This way I don't hard time lock the tasks and just do them until they're done

These posts are great and there is always great information in them. But to nitpick, it would be a lot easier to digest on face value if you lead with concurrency rather than raw total users as that's the true gauge of how your server

I think there is a symbiotic relationship here. Google still needs to feed enough traffic into their main training sets so it can keep training. If these training sets were to fully die (or become stale) then the Google NLP would be equally

I understand that perspective, but I hope you can see that unlike a religion, politics, especially in USA is through people. People need to push a specific candidate because they represent a vision for yourself and the people you love. One

I completely understand where you're coming from, but perhaps you're looking at causation vs correlation. For example, there are many places in the world without a welfare state going through similar issues. The real question is w
