I was under the impression this would increase the cost of insurance for younger people in order to allow insurance to better cover older people and those with pre-existing conditions....

We use opentok a lot and are developing a system for it. My biggest issue with it is reliability and incorrect behavior on the opaque opentok side of the libraries. iOS support on the iphones seems unreliable right now and has a bunch of

What makes you think the future will be better than the present? If history is the judge then it is more likely that we will end up in a situation where 10-20% of the people have everything and everyone else lives in super poverty relative

Why does the author seem personally offended? Seems very biased.

This is a strange defense. You are basically defending an addiction by saying that it is better than smoking crack or doing heroin. That doesn't really defend your addiction, it is just comparing it to other things you could do that

So.....you are probably not going to be an effective entrepreneur in a country like India if you can't even figure out how to pay the cost of doing business for the visa you need to even start your company. If you don't understand

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say smoking tobacco is most certainly not a good investment.

I don't know that I would call scrolls a full game. It has about as many cards as like 25-30% of a single magic set.

I'm not even talking about the little languages that just come in and out of fashion all the time. If you know c++ you could basically roll right into C#, Java, PHP, etc in under a week and be doing real work in them. Maybe you wouldn

I am not saying you can't focus on a single language. But for example, if you know c# than you basically know java, and you basically also know php. You could easily pick up a pretty good understanding of these languages in under a w

So it seems to me like this article just described being a programmer.... If you don't know at a minimum 4+ languages I'm not sure you should be called a programmer at all.

That is true but they should benefit greatly from scale, and this one has over 1000 backers to work with. Also their lowest tier is $50, and that is only for a paper and cardboard set.

Seriously, how could you fail to make a board game with over 100k? He must've just had no idea at all about how to efficiently allocate the funds.... I mean I am on a team that raised like 170k to make a god damn video game and he can&

Ok, so he doesn't like how the US operates. So what? What exactly is unconstitutional that he is whistleblowing about here? Where are the American people being lied to? Most, if not all of these cables have nothing to do with unconst

When wars happen there is collateral damage and innocent people will be in the crossfire. We all knew this. We also already know we are fighting wars on behalf of oil companies like we always have. A lot of America's power has come

What exactly was Bradley Manning trying to whistleblow about? It seems more like he just released a huge amount of classified data arbitrarily. Its hard to say that that is not treason.

No because competent companies don't just have peoples' passwords. They would have to give the encrypted password, encryption method and salt which would greatly weaken the companies own internal security because now a bunch of p

Why is this on tech crunch at all? This is not a tech business or even special in anyway..... You don't need any VC money to do this....this is like running a baby sitting service....

We used to use monotouch a lot, but as soon as we tried to use any third party sdk it was a huge mess. All of the ones supplied by xamarin never quite worked/were out of date and threw a bunch of weird errors. Of course there is a way

No but that is not relevant at all. I have a lot of skills and education that open a lot of doors for me. Many people do not have the same kind of options.

I believe De Beers also funded a private army to start wars in Africa. I mean you said this "Corporations don't make War and enlist people to fight for them." This is obviously false.

Garbage men make between 20-40k a year. That is not a lot but hardly qualifies as slave labor. If only you could create machines that put all of those people out of a job the world would be a much better place.... http://work.chr

"One reason for this, she said, was a function of skills. “Baby Boomers and Gen Xers tend to know C# and SQL,” she said. C# is a software language, while SQL is a database technology. She added, “Gen Y knows Python, social media, and H
