   To start using the bot, just send a message to the page. It's not super clear if you haven't used a Facebook messenger app before, but this is all pretty new and Facebook is still in the beta period for messenger apps.

    While I was a student at MIT, I heard a rumor that Prof. Minsky in the 1960's thought computer vision was such an easy problem that he assigned it to a first year undergrad. I asked him if it was true, and he said that it wasn't t

    I'm in a similar boat. I've been a software engineer for 15 years, but I'm able to learn new languages and tools by watching videos on 2X speed on Udemy. It's much harder to find good quality videos on Youtube. I&#x27

    Many people are also unaware of the high cost and inefficiency of the death penalty in the U.S. With 3002 (as of April 2015) inmates on death row, there were 35 executions in 2014. http://www.deathpenaltyinfo.org/documents&

    Thanks for the review. I think I read it before I pulled the trigger to order one. BTW, I think some manufacturers now make unicycles with double the range than the one you had. Silent chargers also now exist.

    I consider it a unicycle because of the word etymology. uni "one" + cycle, from Greek kyklos "circle, wheel". Some guy showed up to the first meetup asserting that it was a "bc wheel", which I later learned is

    Thanks, byoung2! I will add that edit to the blog. If you could elaborate, I'd love to describe a little clearer how it works practically.

    Good point, patio11. If debtors don't pay back their debt after after a certain time period, they are supposed to report it as income, but I doubt very many do. Setting up an organization like this puts the onus on the organization to fil

    You can't erase the statement that the debt was 180+ days late and sent to collections. The original debt holder could erase that statement, but they have absolutely no incentive to, since they took a 97% loss on your debt. A single late pa

    The problem that I see with this is that once your debt is sent to collections, that mark is already on your credit report for 7 years, even if you pay off the debt. So, "forgiving" the debt is pretty meaningless. People still have their c

    They basically made a "craigslist:all" search engine for bikes. This helps you find your bike if someone is trying to sell it on craigslist in another city. Then, they wrote a blog article filled with hyperbole about business theory, angry
