Approximately 100% salary overhead is pretty standard, so eight $125k employees plus infrastructure and office costs sounds reasonable.

Maybe you were downvoted because that's totally crazy and cannot generate productive discussion?

Interesting to see open-source packages coming out of Dollar Shave Club. They have over 40 projects on github that have been updated within the last year.

Somewhat counter intuitively, the New Shepard is so stable because it's less powerful. You'll never see a hover + correction maneuver in a SpaceX landing because even the single engine used for landing is too strong to allow hov

I've been using my moka pot for a year but didn't know about this trick. I'll have to try it tomorrow, thanks for the tip!

Does it matter? Vectorize the thumbnail all you want, you still don't own the logo.

Odd mix of (I presume) "bare bones" and "rock bottom" in the title. Alternative might be "Rock Bones"?

Give it another year or two. Turning 30 in a few weeks, can feel the caring beginning to evaporate on its own.

Smaller countries can also get disproportionate representation in the olympics. When there's one team or competitor per country, the smallest country has the highest per-capita representation. While they have a smaller pool of athletes

Is that accurate? Was insurance illegal in the early 20th century? Illegal to buy or sell?

Not sure what you mean by extrapolated. It doesn't mean that 0.76 people died, it means that 1 person died after 130 million autopilot miles were driven.

If google auth as a platform grants full access to your google account without any sort of confirmation, isn't that the security risk? Whether or not it's intentional or malicious on the part of Niantic, that seems like the re

75% sucralose sounds horrid. I can't imagine anyone would want to eat a bowlful of Splenda for breakfast.

He did not suggest doing away with the H1B program. He did say he wants to end abuse of the H1B program. H1B abuse typically involves posting an absurdly specific or unappealing set of requirements in a job ad tailored to the person you&#

As the presenters repeatedly said throughout the livestream, even when the landing fails it is a great source of data to integrate into future landing attempts. So far it doesn't appear that the landings have failed for the same reason

Impossible? I lived in Toronto for ten years without a car and never had trouble getting around. $0 is a bit misleading, as you will need $130/mo for a metropass.

"More farmland" to me reads "highly sensitive to drought". Warmer does not mean better if it brings with it less rain.

I switched from tmobile's $30 unlimited (5gb lte) plan. I'm definitely paying $10-15/month more now, but I also travel frequently. The international coverage makes it worthwhile for me. As far as phone expenses go, I think I&

Surely some troll would deploy a fleet of machines that flood package indexes with requests to available names, effectively blacklisting entire dictionaries and eventually all short names.

Has anyone tried enforcing a variable-reference-per-line limit? Eg. if the limit is 4, then these two lines equally hit the limit: foo = bar(baz, qux) myClassInstance.someWritableVar = lib.someFunction(param1, MyOtherClass.constants.F

Why is it that we can track boats with satellites but not planes? In fact we have a complete image[1] of boat activity in the area at the time of disappearance. It seems as crazy to me as how we can offer in-flight satellite-based wifi but
