If you're tired of "picking up the tab" you should leave facebook and encourage others to do the same. What ever happened to the idea that people who say stupid things expose themselves.. it's kind of a favor

IMHO, Paypal as a buyer is insanely good protection. Of course on the seller side it's rough - with horror stories included.

I think this kind of subsidy is only slightly better than sports stadiums. They both are shades of the bad parts of capitalism. If only all states could agree to not give preferential treatment via tax subsidies. It'd be nicer for comp

Why not paypal accounts with paypal debit cards? .. paypal can credit instantly and the card pulls to cash. How about western union? I don't think crypto coins or their blockchains solve billion dollar problems. I'd guess VC'

It's how I perceived the things that happened. Perhaps he takes his case to court and we can see what the court says about the ability to fire him over what he said. Google fired him for making a manifesto about gender differences, pol

Be careful about these observations - they got a guy fired from Google. Apparently even if they are factual observations they aren't allowed. Of course Men and Women are different; but admitting so - perhaps as part of a explanation fo

my first thought was to use a chrome book :) but then I thought what if it was the kind of USB that was rigged to physically break the computer...

I agree the fact that a huge majority of headphones are still sold with the standard head phone jack - means the move is too early. Last release they even mentioned the head phone jack as a feature (and it was).. I'll be sticking with

Until it can run windows apps in emulation - I can't see spending $1k. It does have a great looking form though.

I tried to build a site just to test how it would work on ChromeOS.. I didn't like it But I guess that's cause I really prefer Sublime, Photoshop and a standard-ish file system structure.

I suggest that. Not forever but until there can be a framework in place about the minimum information required to be given to potential investors. A lot of ico's are pure scams; banning them upfront would limit the number of investors

I guess my question is .. Is it true age has a correlation with perception? If so - is that truth itself ageist?

Age is a factor though in how people think and perceive the world yeah? I do apologize thankfully I'm not in a position where my bias hurts anyone but myself and I'll work on my thinking.

I don't want to be ageist but I believe there is a correlation between your age and ability to understand a paradigm shift. I think Jeffrey Immelt and I've also heard speculation about Meg Whitman are a bit 'old school'

They have been priced out of their own neighborhood and that is really unfortunate. Theoretically they should move to a place with a cheaper cost of living. People move all the time for wages and cost of living; I would guess its the number

I don't think the right to your own work and it's profits are an issue of comfort. If you are to lose that right via prison perhaps that's okay. It's not okay to then force that labor out of a person who is non-willing &

I agree the 1299 version with 8gb ram and the i5 seems like a great value. I would imagine in 2 years they'll be $999 or so. the 14 hour battery life is great too / but / the first thing anyone should do is upgrade to windows

Agree the Nokia 6 comes to $241 USD, if the euro price of $229 is true it's a real value. To replace my nexus 6 (which is now discontinued so new in box old stock) would be more expensive.

This is great and I think pretty easy to see as a good thing by all sides (I hope). I never understand why pardons and this type of thing always seem to have a waiting period though; just being grateful the right thing (As I see it) is bein

I think the best approach is to ignore trolls, secondly to offer easy 'ignore' features in social devices.. this story by itself is planting seeds for more trolls. The old saying sticks and stones may break my bones but words will

These type of try-hard (every appliance) efforts are crazy... The market hasn't demanded every appliance based on the sales of connected devices currently. I'd guess if they did do every appliance they quickly reverse and offer no

Just a counter point - I was going to recommend for him to get a Nexus 6, as a budget / value focused person I bought one new-in-box in September of last year, it's been a great phone. The battery is fine but not changeable easily

I have found https://balsamiq.com/ to be a great way to move fast; I prefer to work at first in the 'cartoony' mode of crooked lines etc.. then present straight edged wire frames to the stake holders.

Amazon appears to be able to ramp of profit at will via controlling expenditures and promotions. Review this years numbers vs the prior years. I think they wanted to show a investor what it looks like when they 'wanted' to turn a
