   "That said, it is important that people understand what these figures are - they are not actual technically salaries." Can you explain?

   As a citizen the salaries are almost double my rate for same position/same company.

   Can anyone post a link to the original data source? I'd like to verify this is in fact DOL data. It's much easier to go to an employer with data from an official government source than it is from some site, even if that site claim

   Is that data also pulled from the DOL? If it is accurate then my employer seems to be a liar.

   I wasn't even sure you could actually buy through a Tesla store. I think they just direct you to the website. I took a test drive of a Model S P85 this weekend and they didn't even discuss the sale just wanted to know what I thoug

   Thanks. Doesn't appear to work anymore. Googling the URL still works but it's a pain.

   It was the second day of the month. The first time I have been to WSJ this month.

   It really destroys the UX of HN. Support the WSJ if you would like and browse the articles on that site. Don't submit them to a site where one expects to be able to read the article that is linked to. In this case the valleywag blog sp

    Actually, both but specifically the fact that it seemed to be approaching the front page in a state that most people could not have read it.

    A WSJ article that is pay walled and has no comments is on the HN second page, approaching HN front page. Something is wrong with this.

    I still think HN is full of mostly relevant discussion and a good bit of it is higher quality than you find elsewhere. I really think it's still reddit before reddit became mainstream. Reddit was technical/intellectually focused f

    The front-end issues may have nothing to do with the CakePHP framework but the developer did have to create/modify views. In that case the dev still could have cause incompatibility issues. I'm not picking sides in this but I&#x27

    I don't like monster but rockstar zero carb or sugar free does it for me. Also anything sugar free with erythritol as a sweetener is gross to me. It tastes way sweeter than sugar. I wish I could acquire a taste for coffee because it se

    They prescribe modafinil for sleep apnea? I have apnea and I'm curious because I've never heard this. I've heard it is used for narcolepsy.

    Yeah but if it is that bad the you could just kill yourself. The potential upside seems to outweigh the finality of death.

    I used to come in at 7am to beat traffic at my startup. There would only be a handful of people until everyone else started rolling in around 10. After acquisition by IBM basically everyone is there at 9 for a stand up and now I come in lat

    I think this jump makes sense and you already have these drivers available it gives them another way to use these people. I don't know of any services like this in my area but Uber doesn't have a huge presence yet either..

    Really? In my area wendy's is probably the best between mcdonalds and BK. BK is disgusting and haven't eaten there in years. I will do mcdonald's or wendy's if I'm not on a diet and in an absolute hurry and need som

    I don't get Tim Hortons. Maybe because I'm an American but I feel like other Americans don't really get Tim Hortons as much as Canada does.

    Yeah if they stole a semi finished product I'm sure OP could blow them out of the water with feature. Thought the alleged thief has a jumpstart on marketing.

    It's not helpful, even if they break it first, if you cannot read the actual article.

    I see that as a big reason people want to work for Google. Once Google vets you basically everyone else sees that as a big plus in your next job hunt.

    I know someone who made it through 8 interviews before being told no. I also know 2 others that were hired but have no idea how long it took them. I still wonder what it is that makes us want to give up so much of our own time for their int

    I don't know how many times I've been contacted by a finance recruiter because I listed some skill they need on linkedin. These positions usually pay about double what I make now. I'm never really qualified for them so I have

    This is a big factor. The only place in my hometown that hires for IT related jobs is an international law firm. In that case the lawyers are top dog and you are just some lowly engineer. Where as at large tech companies you are the company
