This ain't about sports. In most sports you've retired by the age of 40 and most coaches are older than that. I would say that's the reason it's common in sports, but that's the exception not the rule

You wouldn't build a chat bot for that, imagine how easy it is to make that thing go off the rails and allow anyone to reactivate their account. Really, you can't trust it to do any business function... At least, that's reall

Out of curiosity, has the demand stayed the same? I'm asking because you see the same with electricity grids, designed in a different time with much lower demand. Sorry to hear this, it seems like a great system to me but you have to h

I'm pretty sure that the typical HN reader doesn't understand what desperation is. You can put a high wall at a border but desperate people will try to scale it. No matter how high you make it. People are willing to cross things l

No. You can actually request those details from them. But that's a very lengthy process. We got to the point that the other party just didn't show up, and the judge just set a new date multiple times... The judge could've gon

Just saying, small claims court is a farce. You can win, and then the losing side just ignores the verdict. Then you can go back and figure out how to get your money, depending on the business this might be really hard. And this isn't
