I have $42,000 in credit with a major bank on credit cards, and just received an $8.5k 0% balance transfer from another (they just put the money in my account). I've earned basically nothing in the last 6 years (been a student). Unsecured c

It's a computer with a display. I don't see how you can say with such certainty that it won't be able to do that. It just depends on how open Google makes the Glass app ecosystem.

Right, it's presently very murky in the US and varies from court to court. You can only try your best to mitigate risk.

The article doesn't talk enough about level of assent to Terms by users. Don't show the Agree button until they scroll all the way down. Require them to type their initials to agree. It is really easy to throw out your terms in civil litiga

The Democrats do not have a majority in the House, the Republicans do. And the Democrats do not control enough of the Senate to be immune to the threat of filibuster. You are contradicting yourself, regardless. You are arguing that higher t

I opt-out of the x-ray scanner every single time, and so should you. It really doesn't take much longer to go through the process. Show up 3 minutes earlier if you have to. You're rushing to the gate, for what? To sit there longer? Boarding

Just keep doing what you're doing, in the UK, try not to open yourself up to US jurisdiction if you don't have to. Keep assets out of there. If you really are infringing and concerned, I'd see about proactively getting favorable licenses wh

Not to mention in-flight wifi cannibalizes existing revenues from individual in-flight entertainment units which carriers were still in the process of installing. Bored people without internet are more likely to pay $6 to watch live TV or m

I'm really surprised to hear NYC of all places didn't have one of these 9 years ago. I feel like there's always been a bunch of them here in Texas. I'd love to hear more about your early days. I'm guessing you had to convince a bank to loan

You're still asking for an email address before showing me anything about your site. This is really mindblowing. Why would I hand over a real email address to a site I know nothing about? Why won't you just let me skip and take a look?

Why? Shouldn't this be a benefit to using Android? I just ditched my iPhone for an Android phone and Apple Maps was a major reason why I didn't go for the iPhone 5. Now that I've owned an Android phone, I couldn't be happier and more impres

$35k is not a trivial sum for recent college grads. That can pay rent for two years. Really the hardest part is paying your living expenses.

But at the same time, everyone is moving away from desktops and certainly away from wired connections. Most people are using wi-fi in the home, and more laptops, tablets, mobile while desktops are dying. Wireless is still only at 200mbps. I

A better analogy is airplanes and air travel. We have the technology to build supersonic passenger jets, but the economics don't work: leisure travelers are unable/unwilling to pay more for their ticket to get at their destination two times

The "reasonable additional hours" factors leave things wide open. You could easily argue any white collar job can require over 38 hours reasonably with those factors. My wife works in an office in Australia where most people work over 60/hr

They can get this luxury, if they unionize. But Americans won't tolerate any such thing, nor will they strive for it. The culture in America is all about slaving away as much as you can, either out of fear of losing your job or desire to be

NSA seems very low profile and I'm not sure they are capable of enforcement. They probably got wind and passed it to FBI. Just speculating here.

No, you won't make partner. Nobody does anymore. It's more risky to go to law school with hopes of being partner than to join a startup. You should factor in quality of life, predictability of work hours and number of them, hourly billing r

Apples to oranges. iPhone 5 is severely limited when purchased in the US: you can't unlock and put a different (overseas) carrier's SIM when you're out of country, until you complete your 2 year contract. Unsubsidized, the iPhone is $699. U
