Techcrunch isn't really credible. And as for not releasing the names of the alleged companies, of course they didn't. Arrington doesn't want to alienate any potential advertisors or suckers^Hsuckers who might be willing to pay $5k to demo a

And I'm impressed with the amount of insensitivity and ignorance with which you can make judgements about other people's lifestyles and body images. A good friend of mine killed himself after losing 250lbs when he realized he couldn't escap

I suggest a need for rapid, engineered weight loss systems that don't involve scam artists or guilt, and what do you do, you try to make me feel guilty? As for anonymous coward, if you're ever in San Francisco, or I'm ever in the netherland

Perhaps that's because bribes, beyond Tips to waiters & taxi drivers, are not very prevalent in American society. What if you'd grown up in India, China, or Indonesia where small bribes to you your job are a fact of every day life. Woul

Because the 2 hours per day of exercise and 1800 calorie diet I'm on clearly states that I'm a glutton? How about this, the next time I'm in the Netherlands to ride with my friends in the Grandfathers, I'll teach you some self control. Jerk

The real fun part is when you're so over-flowing that you're hiring full-time engineers and you've turned into a consulting company. That's what happened with my last company.. I don't recommend it though, consulting isn't very scaleable, a

1) A maid is not rosy the robot.. I have a maid, she comes every other week. It's not feasible to have her do things like the laundry at any affordable frequency. 2) I've got the license, I still don't see a street-legal flying plane .. pre

Well not entirely dissatisfied with the world. I really, really like cheese, seitan, and my Canon 5d MK2. The rest, however, is leaving a lot to be desired. I spend far too much time online hoping that something is really going to WOW me an
