   Sorry but this is completely incorrect. Oral agreements are just as valid under the law (except where something called the Statute of Frauds comes into play) as written agreements. You just need a somewhat specific offer, an acceptance, and

   Yet it's capitalism that ends up financing the malaria vaccine. It just had to go through Gates first.

   It doesn't blow. The stimulation and knowledge you get (about yourself and about others) you get from new places and cultures (and not just dropping by for a visit, but actually living and working there) is fantastic. Of course, it gets old

   Is there software that connects over IMAP and archives all your mail into one file? Not an email client.

   What is your Android widget like? The large Android widget ( i think it's 3x3?) is the only way I use Google Reader now, and I use it a lot. I hate that this is happening. Does your widget look like Reader's?

   How many people actually curate their Timeline and/or care about it? Do you look at other people's Timelines? I don't. I rarely venture beyond Feed and Inbox.

    Came here to say this too. I hate making new accounts. I was really hoping I'd click try and be greeted by a blank word processor with a blinking cursor. Instead I got yet another login screen and I bailed (for now).

    You're in a rut. It happens; there's nothing wrong with you. Rx drugs aren't the answer. You may need a big change to give yourself a motivational spark. Whether it's a move to a new city, a new job, a new project, or getting some big break

    Many shops will give you the code free of charge. It's up to you to take the codes and diagnose it. It's not always easy.

    I'm not sure if English is your first language or not, but you seem to take a negative tone that may burn some bridges for you. You don't want to burn those people still working at the startup you left or your friend who tried to give you s

    I think the oversized image style is not always appropriate for "boring" professional services firms. Perhaps some themes with less dominant imagery on the front page?

    What about businesses that aren't apps or "sexy?" Say an accounting firm or some other professional services. I always struggle to fill in the massive image requirements of the front page sliders of these kinds of templates for "boring" bus

    As a lawyer, I know, and I know the founders understand, that you hire a lawyer not for rote form-filling. You hire them for the consultation and advice as to which forms to fill and what to include in them, along with broader strategic pla

    There's a great irony in the liberal/conservative (left and right) dichotomy. On the one hand, you have left-leaning people who build their platform on the premise that they are champions for the poor and lower/middle classes and multicultu

    Read between the lines. There's likely been fraud here. They aren't coming back from this.

    Beautiful, amazing, and "super" are the three most overused and annoying words that the young hipster tech community uses.

    G+, Android, and the Note II. A beautiful combination. Unfortunately, nobody I know uses G+ so I don't check much.

    This is really outlandish and predatory behavior. It should be illegal to interview anyone more than 3 times. If they want more, they should be required to compensate for travel, time spent in interview, etc.
