Maybe you could gradually try to find another CEO who has the energy to take the company to the next level. What's the new market/area you're looking to get into? (I'm always curious to see what's getting people exc

There's a lot of good amateur radio mesh nets around as well - I'm in the process of setting up an antenna to join one in Orange County https://sites.google.com/site/orangecountymeshorganization/h...

FYI if the comment count goes above the number of points (after a certain number of points, ~45, I forget) - your submission gets penalized and drops off the front page really fast. So there are times when you might want to hold off on addi

yeah, increasing your skill is easily worth $100. Back when I was employed as a developer, I bought all kinds of educational stuff. Now that I'm working on startups, everything's gotta be free.

wow good for them if they're getting people to pay $99. It does look well-designed, but the course outline seems a bit elementary. If anyone is thinking about buying this, you could probably just google the items in the course outline

That's interesting. I wonder if another factor is a wide variation in the level of skill used to build the walls. It's easy for a complete beginner to start building dry stone walls based on a limited amount of information - and u

Interesting community. Those mountain unicycles with the fat tires look like they'd be a ton of fun for camping trips - wasn't even aware that was a thing.

yeah, according to their FAQ: > Jumpstart is a surplus lines insurance broker working in full compliance with applicable insurance regulations. The insurance described here is effected with certain Underwriters at Lloyd's, London.

That's a sad story - just did a quick search and it sounds like it hit a lot of people hard. Years of trip logs and photo albums gone, on very short notice.

Yeah those are good examples. I didn't even realize that discord was so big for the younger generation. Your Wario forum looks cool - definitely the most hilarious character from the franchise.

That's a fascinating forum, I'm probably going to spend a few hours browsing it. I hope this kind of stuff is being properly archived by archive.org or similar entity.

I bought one in ~2014 - when I picked it up at the Apple store, the representative told me it was the first time he'd ever seen someone buy one (apparently he'd worked there for several years). I exclusively use Linux distros on i

I think property with a title is handled differently, which makes sense. Also, in this case, the car was simply reported as stolen and got pulled over in a public space - it's not like they hunted down an allegedly delinquent renter. F

That's a good point. Not knowing how much something is going to cost could cause an enormous amount of stress to a patient - which could impact their outcome. I wonder if there have ever been any studies done about outcomes where the p

Agreed, it's a good thing that police generally don't get involved in contract disputes. There's still avenues for bringing criminal charges I assume.

Even if the pharmacy doesn't accept GoodRx coupons (some don't) - you can ask if the pharmacy has any discounts for uninsured persons.... if they do, it's often even cheaper than the coupon would have been.

What exactly is novel about this patent? I'm curious what this patent would actually protect, as it seems extremely general.

From my experience, it's not easy to get to decision makers, and SMBs are often not concerned enough with security. I feel like having a great network is absolutely essential for these startups - and it sounds like OP does have a great

Very interesting. I wonder if it's possible to get around by randomizing the element class after each reload - sounds like renaming it worked temporarily.
