Yes there is. You can buy prepaid cards at grocery stores or malls, although privacy generally erodes when you want to ship.

Good points on the tax benefits, however the S&P historically is about 10% over the long haul. 16% over the past 5 years is irrelevant. I have no control in the S&P. I have control in my company. I'd rather rise or fail due to

I was offered approx. 4X SDE for my SaaS by a competitor but thought it was too low. I felt they should pay even more to get rid of their primary competitor. I also know what they're up to and their recent strategy benefits their other

I've also found that with an older audience your choice of words can change their entire perception of what happened for the worse. In one of my apps, my error message had "error" in it. While it was an error, their perceptio

Not disputing your claim, but CouchDB is quite an impressive effort built on Erlang.

VRBO and HomeAway tend to be better for higher-end properties. People that spend a lot of money want to talk to the owners prior to booking and VRBO/HomeAway facilitates that. People that own high end properties want to talk to the ren

Businesses basically subsidize part of the cost for consumers. Many are also high bandwidth usage and require support and uptime contracts. Businesses are like first class and consumers are coach on the same flight.

Same here! I didn't start achieving until I started becoming skeptical, mostly about other things or people. I am super optimistic about things that I control however.

I agree and you are saying the same thing I did. I just pointed out that dogging on a company's technology choice, because you don't like it, despite the company having ~300B market cap, is silly, especially since the article talk

I agree, but until then check them out. I just got a great deal on a new router. They are the cheapest in many categories and shipping was pretty quick too. The only thing that could make sense is to lose money on a sale but acquire email a

Nearly 300B market cap - actually way more than I would expect. This elitist attitude needs to stop. The user doesn't give a shit about your technology. If your preferred technology mattered at all, you be able to compete easily at 1&#

This is almost exclusively an American ideal. Our founding was based on being ill-advised. I love that. Sometimes you have to be rogue.

I forgot to mention - fixed bids help build your skill-set way more than hourly because you are incentivized and you will be challenged more to figure out the simplest thing that works. You won't find yourself straying off on a overly-

Summary: since you are new, charge fixed but add buffer on your gut instinct. Referrals are amazing. You likely aren't good at estimating, so you don't want to have to come back to them later and ask for more money. That sours the

Suicide is disrespectful too. Plus, there are insurance implications. If someone commits suicide their heirs don't have right to insurance $. Documentation of a public act serves to surface the truth whether some people want to see it

Someone once told me that bicycles have no business being on the road at all. I thought they were just bitter due to an altercation, but the more I thought about it - it's entirely logical. Most roads are simply not built for bicycles

I also find it funny that people who hate on PHP used to hate on JavaScript for many of the same reasons and they now have an unhealthy, public love affair with it. That and people who tried jamming WordPress or some CMS into every use-case

Do NOT use MongoDB unless you understand it and how your data will be queried. Joins like the author mentions by ID is not a bad thing. If you aren't sure how you are going to query your data, then go with SQL. With a schemaless store
