Thanks for the link. I'm excited that Crohns seems to be an area with promising active research so we might have it solved in the next few decades. For me personally, as my condition is only mild / moderate, I believe I should be

That pretty much answers it. I had no idea about the exchange, which alleviates most of my concerns. Thanks a lot

If you wanted to go after photos for everyone I would agree with you. Probably just as interesting would be grabbing everyone's private messages, and although a large dump, would be nowhere as hard to store. A further option would be t

That first part isn't fair to the startup founders. I know a couple of founders of failed startups who wrote post-mortems on Medium, and then when it surfaced on HN the comments were stating that the founders were glossing over the imp

I have a friend who made several web games that went viral (i.e. he is from Australia, and when I was in Sweden I saw people I didn't know playing it in the lecture). Very simple clones of other games in terms of mechanics, however he

Sometimes not even challenging work, but sometimes menial work that is below others. Every internship I have had, I was with a team that tried to give me the best experience I could, and never gave me boring or menial tasks just because I w

I suggest you don't go to Stack Overflow for the next few days then. I have no issue with comapnies showing their support in this way, but I can understand why others don't agree. Both the argument for and against companies showin

I definitely had the eureka moment when I was younger. When I was in high school I worked with my sister to sell t-shirts that we designed online. The shirts were designed in photoshop, designs given to our supplier who printed them on dema

When I was in Europe last I assumed the cops just let all of that slide. That was until I got to Florence, where I saw undercover cops arrest a group selling prints outside the Uffuzi, complete with crash tackling those that tried to run aw

I'm an Australian who spent 6 months last year in Sweden. I definitely got the impression that companies needs came second to the needs of individuals. Here in Australia, it is much more balanced, depends on your circumstances. My Amer

There are pros and cons, however I think this course has its place. It is for people who know they are good at their degree, but are looking for a challenge rather than easily coasting. In this respect I think it is fantastic. The other sid

This is considered the hardest computing course at UNSW (with the possible exception of the security course). It has a reputation for being brutal and breaking lesser people. 'Survivors' get a t-shirt proclaiming this fact.

But that price discovery should reveal the price that the underlying security is worth. If shares were only traded based on what other people trade it for, isn't that the blind leading the blind, and the price it is traded for will hav

You say it's deceptive, but surely anyone who is contacted in this manner can read between the lines and see it is about recruitment - what other goal would the business have in mind? And as for the suggestion of making an offer up fro

It was the best option in both cases. He was in check when he took the queen, so the queens had to swap or black would lose his queen. At the end Anand traded his knight for the pawn as a king and knight (black's material) can't w

This is amazing to me. I am from Australia and did my ACL when I was 15, and the cost was around $3000. It was an overnight stay in hospital, the only costs not incurred for the actual surgery and operation were MRI's and physiotherapy. How
