Not now honestly, but if the system is designed to be as easy or easier than retaining a human broker, market forces should take over. I would be willing to pay a higher rent in exchange for not having to pay several thousand dollars up fro

Personally, having moved twice so far in the crazy, corrupt rental market of Manhattan, I've been dying for someone to solve this problem. For those who aren't familiar with renting an apartment in NYC, the turnover is so fast and

Granted I am upgrading from a 2 year old Galaxy Nexus that would fully drain in a few hours, but I am quite happy with the N5 battery life. The only way I don't make it through a full day is if I play A LOT of Plants vs. Zombies 2.

Sorry, I used confusing language there. It was meant as a question for people who have the plan. There are scant details about the plan on the website.

Hmm looking at my recent statements, I'm always between like 150 and 375 minutes, so even with the 10c per minute extra, I'd never be looking at more than $60/month at worst. I'm assuming nights and weekends still don&#

I just ordered one, but I'm currently on Verizon. What does everyone think is the best way to go in terms of non-contract carriers for the N5? Heard some good things about Straight Talk, but also read that their customer service is h

I agree, although that's a strawman since the comments are attached to threads about Soylent. I'm sure there would be worse (different) things said on threads about fast food. I do very much hope that the science does come around

A lot of the criticism I've seen is not people dismissing Soylent as a toy, but instead being worried that it may actually have unknown negative effects on health, since it lacks any long-term clinical trials.

Hopefully as this happens more often, the affected companies will start to lobby against the current policies.

How does stating that one country has certain values imply that no other country has those values?

Is this syntax part of ECMAScript 6? I.E. will it eventually be supported by all browsers?

I'd even cheer them on if they did that instead of dehumanizing those workers. And I'm sure those workers would be grateful for your cheering when they're standing in the unemployment line.

You're right. If the battery's dead all the time, it can also be a paper weight!

The data doesn't support the conclusion that they pay more for engineers, just that they pay more per employee. I've been an engineer in financial services in NYC for 3.5 years, and I can fairly confidently say that those large sa

Yes, we completely agree. My point isn't that society should look to punish people instead of rehabilitate them. It's that it is human nature to want to punish people, and it takes a special kind of person to see past that and d

Just to play devil's advocate, are you positive you'd have the same view if someone murdered your spouse? Sexually assaulted your daughter? Beat the hell out of your mother?

Humans also grow hair a certain way. Do you similarly agree that shaving razors are illogical? As a species, one of the these we enjoy is the ability to use our intellect to improve naturally occurring things about ourselves. Just because

I agree with your sentiment, but the Constitution gives congress the power to establish inferior courts.

I completely agree. I got very frustrated talking to two intelligent people (one a lawyer) about this the other day. I think everyone should be educated to make sure they know about these points so that they can intelligently explain them t

I understand the position (and enjoy your analogy), I just simply disagree with it. I find it hard to believe that anyone who is drinking an alcoholic beverage is going to be tricked into thinking the effects of said alcohol are any differe

Sorry, I was being sarcastic. The goal of these things is to prevent date rape by someone unsuspectingly taking particular drugs. There's not much you are going to be able to invent if your goal is to stop date rape by preventing peopl

Agreed. After having done interviews at Microsoft, Google, Facebook, and Amazon at various times over the past 5 years, I never encountered a single one of these questions. I wonder why this myth continues to live on.

You could always invent your own strip that detects alcohol and displays UNSAFE. That way people will be reminded before they drink their vodka tonic that it contains alcohol.

It might be overkill if you don't need interactive features, but my ATable[1] library takes a 2-dimensional array representation of the data, and turns it into an HTML table. I will add support for an array of JSON objects as the data

I don't know what would have to happen for you to consider the response substantial. Would citizens need to be forming militias and actively marching in the streets? That's just not how people react anymore. Tens of thousands of p

I disagree with your usage of the past tense here. This is far from over, and I don't think the public's reaction was tepid.
