I just want to know when college became some holy grail of uncovering your true potential. I've been to college. It absolutely and utterly pales in comparison to the knowledge base I'll never have time to consume for free on the

There doesn't have to be some limitations of choice by default, plenty of services provide paying extra to ignore ads, books would be no different. The model you're describing opens up options and I suspect the majority of people

Sure, I guess my argument would be that simply because a problem could exist doesn't mean it's practical to address it and especially not practical to address potential bad, on a company by company basis. I could spend days listi

I think that's an interesting point and deserves to be considered carefully. I would suggest that hacking for trust less systems is a wonderful ideal which can only be successfully achieved when the system has the potential to be full

I don't know about the people you're responding too, but for me it's less about broken promises and more about incompetency. I would be almost as angry if the number were 6, when they promised that they had done proper testi

I wish I was smart enough to document things as thoroughly as she did while debugging this problem. The solution was simple and wouldn't really have been a very exciting read, but since she was smart enough to document the process she

I don't get it. There's nothing wrong with using your physical assets to draw in conversation and make a sale. If someone labels you as a 'booth babe', then great! You've done well to have one of your assets reco

..and this my friends is what political discussion looks like. You know, even if you were/are/will become right, laughing at someone else's ideals benefits no one. It just deepens the abyss that separates logic from politica

is it ironic that I can name the last libertarian presidential candidate, Gary Johnson, and you can't name a socially repressive policy?

I completely agree with you here. If the company leverages everything they have to keep you compensated as low as possible to keep you, then you should in turn leverage all of your work against them and do as little as possible for them to
