   Everything this article says is true if you accept the postulate that people only trade stocks to make money. There are other reasons to trade individual stocks, however -- for instance, I often buy stock in companies that I want to support

   I would be very, very interested to see the long-term consequences of an exclusively Soylent diet. I suspect the lack of phytochemicals would lead to increased incidences of cancer. That said, I would also guess that millions (billions?) of

   I wrote this in response to the many exercise and diet posts I've been seeing on HN lately. The TL;DR is: if you know how to accomplish some long-term goals, I believe you can use the same techniques to accomplish your other long-term

   If you get to a point where ageism actually becomes an issue for you, I would suggest embedded systems engineering. With your C++ background it should be no problem for you, and in my experience firmware engineers tend to be older and don&#

   I went through the process of applying to Teach for America about 5 years ago (I was not selected). It was a rigorous process, and seemed to select fairly well for the attributes that successful teachers should have (enthusiasm, organizatio

    This is hilarious, and would probably get hugely popular if you let people put custom text in there and then link to it.

    It's difficult to provide advice without knowing a little bit more about your motivations. For instance, why did you leave the bigCo? Was the work unfulfilling, or were there other issues? Without knowing more about your situation, I have t

    I've received a few of these in the mail, but the fact that they were clearly from a third party made me trash them immediately. It's interesting to hear that they don't even provide the extended warranty they are advertising.

    Hi msprague, thanks for the enthusiasm! We're actually discussing possible approaches to a public API for developers. We're still in early development and don't have a name yet, but if you send me a note at the email address in my profile w

    Nice ideas! I like the concept of mapping drivers to vehicle stats, and creating a database of issues that occur under specific conditions.

    interesting! With a big enough pool of data this might be useful to meteorologists. The drawback would be poor sensor accuracy given the conditions car environment sensors are subjected to, but it might be worth investigating.
