Yes, but I believe they still reserve the right to restore them whenever they choose.

sigh ... the president really failed, yet it still took and extra four years to get rid of him. Of course, we're still doing better then Iran.

Thank you for your reality check. Many people I know keep friends in the same social circles, and have little to no direct exposure to this perspective. Not everyone has the strong safety net to fall back on, so not everyone can risk the l

Congratulations! What's it written in, and what's required for hosting? I'm getting married in 5 weeks, but I've let my new job and house take priority over creating the website. Hmmm ... is there no way to private message someone on here?

First, it's more PC to have their North Carolina members complain about it which might stop it from passing. After that, it's probably cheaper to get someone else to do it for them. Only if the losses were substantial, or too many other sta

From what I've heard and read, it tends to have more to do with the manager either not working closely with the individuals and/or not understanding what they are doing. This is especially common when it's a non-developer managing the grou

I've been developing for several years, and I usually visually tune them out. I only adblock the companies that do pop-ups/pop-unders, or verbal ads. Flashblock tends to take care of the worse offenders anyway. If the ads are supporting a

Well, I choose public rather then Ivy, but it's not far behind. I generally feel better because I choose to get a similar education without going massively into debt. I figured I'd be going for a masters, at which point it wouldn't matter

It's a trade off. The first place I worked mis-planned their moved, and was suffering the following 3.5 years to maintain profitability. The margins weren't high enough and through put did not increase enough to justify the more expensive

The same house and yard that my aunt can't sell in central Illinois for $50,000 would be worth a good 200,000 - 250,000 in the area I'm currently looking in (Philly suburbs) and more then the $400,000 or so that my fiancee's brother paid fo

As for the car loan: low interest rate, upcoming wedding, upcoming house purchase. If the money isn't needed, we can always pay off the loan. More accurately, I wasn't going to argue with my fiancee over it, and she didn't want me to pay f

Good job with the counter perspective. My main concern is the risk of being overloaded. Based on my last two jobs (1 year and 6 months) the larger companies are also subject to buyouts and layoffs. Based on the position descriptions, the

I was part of the slow agonizing death at a smaller company with 15 years history. It's not fun even when it's just your salary riding on it.

At this point, we're financially stable. My current unemployment seems to be running slightly higher then burn rate, and I have a fair amount in savings. The homes we are looking at are within the range of what we can cover provided that

My current understanding is that they have several investors, and are currently turning down VC funding. I'll have to ask that explicitly. I believe due to outside deadlines, they want to have the system fully up and running by July.

All 3 are coming in with business experience in the industry. I only know them from the interviewing process. From what I've seen and heard there is a strong potential for rapid profitability. They are currently turning down venture funding

I think the last addition to the question helps address this. At this point, I'm looking at getting married and buying a house in the next few months. It's salaried, with stock options.

The exact same argument can be made for software, and anything else you can do on the computer. A few people are happy to create things for free, but those same people would generally prefer to be able to make a living doing what they love

Freezing the content of the main page to update at a fixed rate makes sense. The comments won't work as well if they aren't done in real time in the current format. One possible solution would be to add a separate section for active commen

So, what is the best way to over come this? If I already have a career in the suburbs and a family, how do I emulate this environment? That's the general case, which might be the easier one to address. In my specific case, I have a career

I'm not sure about adverse selection, but a reddit t-shirt on a guy would not stand out much at all. If I were a single guy, it would definitely peak my curiosity.

I completely agree with you, and yet I can't help but admire that he noticed that random detail and followed up on it. So I'm voting you up and leaving him be.
