wasn't looking for a specific car, just wanted a good deal on a car that matched my criteria ended up getting the car 30% below the KBB value

yeah, at those rates they could afford to stop using slave labor or at the very least invest a bit to make life easier for Foxconn employees or maybe startup the charity programs again

seems like 350 million is a drop in the bucket for something like that

pretty good, although for craigslist, there is really no sense in letting someone search within 14 days. anything that's a good deal is gone almost right away I lost out on like a dozen cars before I bought my last one. And that was only be

the problem is that salaries aren't uniform for all companies. so if you go by glassdoor, you'll see that some engineers make $40K/yr, while others make $150K/yr in the same area. If you go by listed salaries on job descriptoins, once again

"ass" doesn't seem to be that extreme...rude yes...but not that "bad". Didn't see that particular discussion, so might have been worse. The whole deification of pg by some people on here is pretty weird if you ask me.

Congress doesn't really care about "jobs", it's just a platitude they use as an excuse to push through the bills they want...you wouldn't vote against jobs, would you?

by vaksel 15y ago
well it might be done. Seems like congress people bend over backwards for companies that donate as little as $100K to their reelection campaigns. There are 535 people in congress, so we'd need to raise 53,500,000 to make it happen. A small

not exactly, I'm talking more about a group like the NRA or AIPAC or NCAAP...something powerful enough where every presidential candidate has to come in and kiss up to get the group's approval. Something where a candidate getting rated a C

They should capitalize on the momentum and create an organization that can get everyone mobilized quickly in the future. Politicians kiss up to tiny groups just because they are somewhat influential...think of billions going to subsidies fo

+ we don't have a king, what one administration does, won't mean jack when another administration takes reigns. These guys want these tools so they can use them eventually.

we need a 3rd party, or better yet change voting to preferential voting, so you can vote for who you want and not against who you don't. that way you can say I like this guy, but in case he doesn't win, I'll settle for this one

too much of a good thing is never good...do you really want to turn programming into a commodity? Do you want to be paid $10/hr for your work? It's a supply and demand curve, there really only needs to be a few thousand too many developers

the fact that she is part of Thiel's 20 under 20, just shows the high level of selection bias for his program

I think part of it is due to the fact that Colbert has confirmed in the past that he is an active redditor, and on there SOPA has been a pretty popular topic. Stewart on the other hand might just get his news from TV, which hasn't really co

HN itself? No All the startups/sites that everyone on here runs? Absolutely You don't even have to go 100% dark, you can just have a splash telling your users about SOPA. You need to realize

doesn't HN do that already? or is that only for exact match links?

some? yes most? You won't get hired, because you'll be seen as a bad cultural fit for the company. Only real way to get in as someone that old, is if you are going for the position of a CTO

um, these problems were present under the original founders as well, you just didn't hear it as much since they were just starting out and didn't have the same market share

seems like someone's lobbyist got what he was paid for. Something like this makes no real sense, unless you are an internet service provider(domain, hosting etc)

I had one of my old cars semi-stolen. Luckily I took a few precautions and had a hidden fuel pump kill switch wired up(since the Integra was a very high target for thieves). So they only got 20 feet away before the car died on them. Wiring

the problem seems to be with verification not the business model itself. so they should just tweak it to make it work...there are hundreds of supercar rental companies, so just copy them. .

let me put this into developer context: let's say you build a user generated content startup. It's one of the projects you built, so after a few months you forget it and go work on another startup. Then while you were 100% focused on your n

it's bs. he had a 30 year career in politics, if he was really a racist, there'd be some video proof to support it of him actually saying this...or hell anything else to support that...but there isn't + then there is this: http://www.youtu
