That's my point. They're not spending any more time on anything. They'll just continue spamming down the list and eventually they'll hit you again.

"Just hike a few miles out to a campsite, hang out, read, cook, play around, and then head home the next evening. My kids are young (7 and 12), and I think it does them a lot of good to be able to cover some distance and pack things in

I think there's something to an idea like this. So much time right now is wasted grocery shopping. I mentioned this in a comment a while back about Instacart: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5039418

You're spot on. Sports are the single thing that there really is no easy way to watch without traditional cable/satellite. Once they finally come around, it will be much easier to convince people to cut the cord.

That was amazing, thanks for sharing! Amazing how the woman representing the dealerships struggled to come up any logical defense for their legal protection.

LOVE this idea. A great way to get exercise and force yourself to step outside our little startup/tech bubble to experience more of the "real world".

"They only have 35 engineers, what they could do is limited." Um, am I the only one that thinks 35 engineers is a pretty good size team to get a good amount of work done?

Seems like it's every week or so now that a developer writes a letter like this to recruiters. Trust me, I completely agree - recruiters suck. But I'm wondering if the recruiters you're actually trying to reach are simply nev
