Meanwhile, every grocery chain does it, Walmart does it (Successfully!), Mcdonalds does it, and more. The later is more interesting because it's a franchise model, and if a franchisee is successful, there's usually nothing in the

I wonder what it all means with today's market open. Is it opportunity to strike now, or do really be cautious and let the prices down down the next quarter.

The problem is, - is the time/life/worth balance worth it? I would agree, yes, stick in tech 40 years, you'd be a millionaire, even 5-10, but at that point, I feel you should exit - and live your life and do your "thing.

This. I've been reading 2005-2008 papers, again - as I was doing these back in school for current issues. It's exciting how some things never change. More fear and gloom nowadays though. But it's quite the ride, the worst wou

This is cool, so in laymans terms - you can disable the bad "genes" and just express/enable/push the "good ones." So how do we define what is a bad gene? If we use crispr, can we turn it off on an actual, live,

I've been to all those Floridian cities quite recently, and went frequently yearly. There are a high number of out of state plates,and drivers are much much worse - in FL driving is absolute so it's a easy check to see who's

This is a common problem w/ Seattle. I've always thought that the bad weather did push enough people away in tech. This spring is one of the wettest and coldest, but it has been going that way, wetter springs, colder winters/

I would say none, having a dependence on a app to be "mentally" healthy is just code for addiction and dependence. Removing the addiction to phone usage, and the feedback of notifications is the better way. This goes in with what

Sit back, and enjoy being paid to do nothing. #Friction is accepted at #bigco so while you can enjoy speed, they probably don't. The company is paying you to work to their schedule, and unless you're working on "efficiency&qu

Everyone beat me with the one liners :) surprised someone had a file.open loop while cat and awk would work. More surprised to see Ruby used.

The price shown on the map or per day does not take into account the cleaning fee or the local taxes, or the booking fee. So if the host has a base rate of $45/day, when you go to book it it recalculates it as base rate + cleaning rate

Mexico makes sense, there's NAFTA, just pay transport, tariffs/customs are waived. Not really weird, take a look at cars and manufacturing and it's been that way for the over the past two decades.

That's awesome, thought they were doing a 180 and forcing magsafe charging only.

I've come to the same conclusion, especially with HN being a timesuck. Not a bad timesuck, but it very much does contribute to a dopamine feedback addiction loop for me. I'm glad it's here, than, Facebook, but yes. There&#x27

Comic books are long gone counterculture. Look at all the marvel/DC movies as of late. No counterculture item is going to be front page news like the whole new "Doctor Strange" movie. Which, I get, knowing this makes me so no

It makes you wonder how "held" back people that suffer from suttering, autism spectrum and dyslexia (to name a few) are held back in day to day life. Where most of life really falls under communication.

This is a common thing around the world today, just look at Argentina and Sri Lanka. There are two rates, the bank rate and the market rate. Nothing new, and nothing unique to "Soviet" occupation, it is still a very serious issue

Depends on what you mean by "Digital Nomad" the term has been quite twisted by online hustle culture to mean the worst and extract profit by promising dreams for a vulnerable amount of people. I've been a DN since 2014, and i
