I think the idea is that domestic organizations operated (for lack of a better word) by US Citizens have an end goal of making the country better for themselves. Russia seemingly didn't care about the end goals, just sowing general dis

I can't believe they didn't do this first instead of doing that ridiculous "No disposable plastic bag" rule. The grocery store by my house (marianos) just gave everyone paper, but it seems like most other places just swi

In the mobile app, request directions of a location and there's a rideshare icon (a person holding a suitcase with their other hand hailing a cab). For me it's between the walking & bicycling options. You're presented wit

I hope so. Most large metro areas sponsor carpool matching programs, though they're usually administered/marketed through the worksite. A lot areas also sponsor a guaranteed ride home program too so that if you carpool to work and

I worked for a state sponsored carpool app for nearly 5 years in the late aughts/early 10s. This is exactly what I had wanted to build, but the state didn't want to take a risk on mobile and ended up hiring a contractor to develop

I think one example would be that if you drive over the Brooklyn Bridge or Queensborough Bridge, but get directly onto the FDR, drive north to wherever the congestion zone ends (the last time they floated the idea it was 86th St), exit onto

The one question I had that doesn't seem to be covered is whether the bodies are embalmed or preserved beyond refrigeration. I read a couple of the other chapters and it seemed as though the spine & heads they bought were just refr

I was hit by a van a few weeks ago. I was on my bike, waiting to cross a busy street, the van was next to waiting to turn right and the driver was looking to his left to see when traffic stopped. Unfortunately he started moving before he tu

So, the Southwest TOS state that you can't scrape or programmatically access their data. Isn't that the end of the argument unless they find a way to manually access it for customers?

I think so, but the Supreme Court didn't in 1976. Frankly, I think there should be a lot more personal liability around careless work when it impacts the health & safety of others. For example, I think police misconduct damages sh

I don't understand what exactly this is? Is it just starter scaffolding in the vein of create-react-app or one of those hackathon starters? I'd put some time into showing some examples of what exactly the service is and how it wor

Signing up for a free trial requires some bit of commitment. A couple of sentences isn't enough for most people to commit to a new product. If you think about the customer journey as Research-Evaluate-Purchase, the 30 day free trial is

I think it depends on the fund. Jonathan Hsu of Social Capital wrote a 5 part blog post on how they do it [0]. They even built a tool that companies interested in pitching upload their user & revenue data into, it's pretty neat. [0

This is pretty cool. I did something similar with adwords scripts a few years ago. I was doing facebook advertising a few years ago and the ads featured products that would occasionally sell out, but there wasn't a way to monitor them

You can get fired from a job at private company for posting racist material on the internet. I'm not sure how acceptance to a private college is any different. It's better that they learn this lesson now, rather than when a salary

The time of day matters though. Early morning departures, in my experience - especially on weekends, are almost always partially empty. Last week I flew on a flight that left at 5:55 AM that was less than half full (25 people on a regional
