Search in general on the Appstore isn't very good; not just for this.

I think it's actually most fields that have that. Listen to people talk about places they've visited and you get some of the same things. It might be that just because this is online, in a tech forum, we see that kind of anger about tech.

Every problem is important, if you care about it. Too often we make a distinction between "important" work like curing diseases and "unimportant" work like making games. But people like games, both making them and playing them. You might no

How much of that is changing mediums, though? People get more comedic entertainment from TV, movies, and the internet now, rather than comedy clubs, and that has to change things.

But people violate leases in little ways all the time. As long as the renters didn't cause any additional problems, I don't see what the big deal is.

Are these people who are just causing problems or just want things other than what you are providing? Those are two different problems with two different answers.

They don't talk about it in the article but the app is also just generally buggy.

Or even earn back the difference in volume.

I wouldn't imagine those issues would affect software companies as much as companies that need physical infrastructure.

I haven't used Votizen but in other voting records databases, they record "Yes" or "No" as to whether they voted (and sometimes other information depending on the state).

Sure but I just ignore it. Plenty of useful, actually informative stuff out there. Why waste your time on hype and self-promotion?

As someone who was (fairly recently) once there, this is definitely true. I think I'm pretty smart but if I knew then what I know now about potential resources and methods, I would have done much better and wasted much less time and energy.

I was thinking it would be more akin to student loans, at least in timeframe. Wonder what crowdsourced payday loans would be like, though.

Fascinating idea. How does it actually work?

Would be interesting to see a similar study of successful startups, or for that matter, sports teams. Are "close but not too close" connections as important there, too?

We might be more focused on getting people to do things, but it doesn't need to be just about getting people to sign up for things. We can also use software to make people behave better, to make people's lives better. Just yesterday there w

Unfortunately, as the article demonstrates, our prisons are anything but humane.

But prison wardens don't let inmates read whatever they want. Do you think you could survive reading only what the warden would let you read (and doing only what they permit you to)? I don't know about you but I think I'd struggle to surviv

You can learn how to interact in society while still being homeschooled. Might be a different experience but homeschooling does not necessarily equate to being alone all the time.

Have that at JFK too. Haven't used it but seems useful, especially since it's mixed in with a lounge area so not everyone there is ordering food.

Not all of us want to spend every moment in the office. Some of us have girlfriends, hobbies, or just sometimes need a break from sitting in front of a computer.

Was a common idea back in the 1970's; might have even happened if not for Watergate, stagflation and then Reagan.
