Me too. Literally the only thing I've used Yahoo for in years.

Great point. And candidly I never actually do this myself (CNAME on the bare domain), I just point it at the server and let apache/nginx handle the redirect.

There's a slight advantage to doing it at the registrar because it keeps the hit off your servers. This is assuming of course that http://foo.com/bar will get redirected to http://www.foo.com/bar rath

Yup. My dad was a RAD/MAD operator on a P3 during the Vietnam War. One of my indelible memories from childhood is him explaining how it worked and a story about seeing a Soviet sub on the surface. Of course as a kid having watched D

Once the conversation shifts from performance to prestige and image, you're back to my original statement, which is about something existing primarily to have its purchase price shared. Your car example is perfect. If performance was

Probably not? Definitely not. At damn near a quarter mil for speakers you're way beyond the what the human ear can detect on the curve of diminishing returns. We agree though about speakers and the quick win they represent. They&#

I was recently in the home of an old friend who reps for a few ultra high end audio companies. The entry level speakers were $30k. The mids, $90k. The 700lb top shelf models? $220k. Some things exist purely so they can have their purchas

Amen. Yeah it's exciting to get a big investor check. You know what's way more exciting? Being profitable. I occasionally get approached to help seed startups whose entire plan depends on a) getting funded and b) getting acqu

Off topic, Len, an observation and suggestion: I navigated to the homepage, went "cool, game sorta like Cards Against Humanity but what are the questions like?" This wasn't immediately apparent but I eventually scrolled down

I must be dense then. I'm unable to figure out how to do this.

I'm unclear as to how the Google's ToS are being violated. He's not reimplementing anything that Google has provided. If I want to create a route from my condo down to the walking path, along the path to the high school, and

Same here. Texas resident on to our 3rd insurer after BCBS dropped PPO. Twice as much for less coverage with twice the deductible. F*cking Obamacare.

How does this article support the"Obama is a Muslim" trope? His point is that some of the Muslim world might view Obama as an apostate because of his parentage, over which he had no control, and his renunciation of Islam and conv

Well that's a whole different deal there. :) When you do the Light, the Cadre ask "does anyone have any medical conditions we should know about". Speak up, or at least talk to the Cadre before the event so he's briefed

Agreed. And when a person is new to training it's wisest to err on the side of caution because it takes time to learn how the body feels when it's uncomfortable vs when it's injured. I should have been more clear in my respo

I'd really encourage you to do the Challenge. You will have the opportunity to learn some things about yourself, good and bad, that you will not get during the Light. That knowledge is worth the added difficulty. Your team will get

Along similar lines I always imagined a middle eastern variation on General Tso's chicken. Candy never entered my mind, I always assumed it was an entrée of some type.

I was referencing my personal perspective. I reserve the right to shut down my own opinions, especially the anecdotal ones. I have known my anecdotes to be 91.3% bullshit.

This may be the case in San Francisco. It's not the case elsewhere, however, at least for this anecdotal sample size of one. :) Business travel takes me all over the country and Yelp is incredibly reliable. I've lost track of t

Solid advice with one exception: you may not be able to make a deal that makes your cofounder happy. Even if you're as nice as you can be, make good, on promises, etc, you may still end up being "the bad guy." Emotion is the

Nah. Most of the managers I worked with truly wanted to treat their people well, they just didn't have the latitude or power to do so. They were given lots of responsibility with no authority, they got dumped on by the jackwagon MBA(

I'm a boss of devs. My off the cuff response to you is "please, god _please_, talk to your boss." Say exactly what you told us. "I'm burnt out, I've tried addressing the problem..." Before you do, think

Give me a break. "Link" should be a huge warning flag that weasel words, non sequiturs, and good 'ol conflations of causation/correlation are ahead.
