I see lots of baby boomers trying to unload the business they've worked hard at the past 30yrs, hoping someone can pay cash at 3x what they make from it. Who can buy something that costs 250K if they've never had steady work let a

Wow, so brilliant to have Bill Gates so he's pro-government intrusion and then the company back Apple. Update: This was not meant to troll. I fell for the mis-attributed quotes to Bill and thought he actually backed the FBI. I stand co

...and this is how Google opens itself to attack from a group that is ready to "disrupt" search. I, for one, love DuckDuckGo because my search results yield ...wait for it, search results! No, seriously, that's why I go there

Another angle would be how this could play out with civil forfeiture. Remember, this was originally only used on those people who were suspected of drugs, organized crime, etc but quickly spread to the general population. - Could they flag

Advertising is a necessary part of selling a product. Selling a product is a necessary part of being profitable. Why hate on that? Way better than waste-my-time Farmville or an enhanced "like" button. Adtech actually helps commerc

On one hand I hate spammers and their ilk. On the other hand, I have to congratulate them on finding a neat hack around spam filters which is technically not breaking false claimant laws . The simple fix is to disable $0.00 invoices as any

That works for everyone except those who would have to declare to their employer that they're working on the side, for whom they're working and on what. Also, there are places in the US which allow an employer to claim any ideas r

It wasn't the FAA. It was all the lawsuits that made the liability of general aviation airplanes completely unprofitable. Aircraft development is still going strong in other countries around the world.

As a former adjunct in math, this is a depressing but common phenomenon in lower tier schools. I remember my first pay check, walking up to the Dean and asking why there was a "0" missing. Turned out the "pay period" was

As much as I agree about your argument, that's going to be a problem no matter how you do it. You will always run into an impedance mismatch. The problem is, which area should drive the solutions of another area? You'll never get
