The ethics of this seem dubious. Those poor monkeys!

Credit card interest rates can easily approach 25% for those who don't pay off their balance.

IIRC, the way browsers interpret margins and widths on the <body> element isn't consistent; and they may not support overriding block properties on the <html> element at all. Or maybe they do now, but that certainly wasn&#

Sounds like you need to cut back expenses and start saving more even independent of this job situation. If you took work at half market rate, what would you do financially? Cut your expenses back to that level for at least 3 months (if not

Agree about the markup, but the current font is perfect on small phones. Anything larger would have a line length with too few characters to be legible; and reader mode doesn’t work.

Larger vote and collapse buttons for mobile so you're not constantly tapping the wrong thing by accident.

Every politician and transportation decision maker in the US needs to read this one. That goes double for the collection of clowns who are letting New York’s transit systems rot.

Whether subletting is permitted depends on the terms of the lease (and in some cases policies of a homeowners association or coop board).

It’d be pretty easy to build a slack bot for that, and slack has decent videoconferencing tools.

Now that’s an interesting thought. Are manufacturers turning to phablets because they can’t work out the heat dissipation engineering for smaller devices as much as because of demand?

That sounds potentially incredibly scary if you get into a fender-bender.

Is it poverty per se? Or the chronic stress that poverty/low status causes? Also, to what degree are these epigenetic changes (and more specifically, the health conditions the article says they can cause/exacerbate) leading to po

Almost enough? In many parts of the country? You can rent a small studio apartment, or a room in a luxury apartment in New York for significantly less than $1800/mo -- in the second or third most expensive rental market in the country

Is it possible that that mostly just signifies the highest holiday season short-term hiring in a decade?

Before I would even begin to consider this, you'd have to include an option to mark all my donations as anonymous - that is, I don't want info all over the internet about what videos I like, let alone who I give money to.

IMO, a lot of it is subconscious. A resume that’s well laid out and makes it easy to find the most important points puts me in a much better mood than one where I have to dig through a wall of text to learn anything meaningful about the can

A LOT of people who take the bus here are elderly or disabled.

Right, that’s my point.

But higher than in 2007? Seems like a cherry-picked comparison.

My experience on crowded buses is that typically every stop gets rung for anyway, so skipping isn’t an option. Of course, if it were possible to open only the back doors and let people off but not on, that might help, at the expense of leav

It may not be bad for the investor if that’s be outcome, but it sure is bad for the market and the consumer.

Are they allowed to also skip stops where people want to get off?

Bunching happens most often with crowded buses and results in the front bus in a cluster becoming crowded. Crowded buses are most likely to have people getting off at every stop. The ones I take often have people ringing for every stop even

They do that in NY. It typically equalizes and returns to bunching within a few stops, especially on busy routes.

With what side effects, short term and long-term? How about resistance or dependecy?

Working a full time job is IMO a crucial life skill. If you give up now, and your startup fails (as most do), will you be able to bring yourself to go back to the 9-to-5 life? If you can’t learn to live that life, you’re likely to find your
