Honest question: Would you toy with the idea of adding a small blurb right at the start of your resume stating this? I'm thinking a box that acknowledges up-front that you have diagnosed dyslexia, which would explain any spelling mista

I moved to France back in 2011 with very basic French (read: virtually none). I couldn't order, I couldn't say anything well. My technique: - I started with children's books with audio, but ensured I read for at least 1 h

Agreed that the article is a little too flattering to his ego, but what about people desperate for medical aid, can't afford it, and would probably end up with pain/death without this as an alternative? What should they do?

The concept doesn't exist in the States, sadly. Americans please correct me, but here it's more symptomatic with sexual health: You have a rash/etc, so you go see the doctor. There's no early-detection system where you a

If you're getting treatment, the amount of HIV in your blood is regularly measured as your "viral load". It's possible, with treatment, for people with HIV to have a viral load labelled undetectable. To date, from an art

Very unlikely. Credit card companies charge fees, which is why such apps (venmo, cash-me, etc) all just push that fee onto you. Usually 3%.

Last I checked Zelle didn't allow you to link to a credit card. Is this still the case?

For those who use YouTube a lot I HIGHLY recommend playing for YouTube Red. A much easier way of getting rid of the ads if you can afford $10/mth.

Sorry, this is contrary to everything I've heard and read. I thought non-intent meant that I can't apply for a green card? I guess it would be too late now, but what's the process of getting a work-sponsored green card while

Interesting. I haven't used JSON-stores because in my mind it always boils down to the question of how you would link entities together. I can't seem to get a good answer... so let me put this to you: In a standard RDBMS I would p

Primary reason: The E3 is a non-intent visa, meaning that you can't apply for the Green Card on it. Your only choice is to convert to H1B first and then apply. Other reason 1: You can transfer to another job easier while remaining in t

Wait ... you're saying that you should do a tab, and then a whole bunch of spaces? What actual benefit does tabbing even get you at that point?

One major issue is that Android only supports java 6. All the nice things java 8 brings aren't available. With Kotlin officially supported in Android, you can finally have nice things.

I'm very glad I read this article. I once heard a handyman say that "they don't build 'em like they used to" about my parents' old washing machine. Now I can see that this isn't just anecdotal nostalgia.
