You're welcome! I have friends in college who would've qualified for expanded Medicaid but my state didn't expand either. They were talking about this exemption which is how I learned of it.
There are a whole host of exemptions from the tax, including: "You were determined ineligible for Medicaid because your state didn’t expand eligibility for Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act."…
Fashion and beauty are vehicles for self-expression very much like technology is (iOS or Android; power user or not, etc). We identify with the technology we choose every bit as much as we identify with the style we…
So they knew she was in a bad place financially and still terminated her contract? There's not much to their response that changes this story. They didn't dispute her lack of benefits or the amount of her wages and they…
If you're looking for a replacement, I really love the Roadtrippers tool: http://roadtrippers.com It's not a Wikipedia layer, but their data sets are interesting. There's a lot more context than the Wikipedia layer…
Women/people certainly CAN choose to educate. Your presumption that she SHOULD or, rather, "The proper way to handle this issue is..." is what I took issue with. There is no "proper way to handle this issue" except the…
It is not logical for a woman (or anyone really) to remain in a situation that makes her uncomfortable and especially not logical to remain in a situation where she fears for her safety. Responsibility was the correct…
>The proper way to handle this issue is to just be direct when someone is behaving inappropriately and not use ambiguous language It is not the responsibility of women to educate when they feel uncomfortable or fear for…
>The difference between them tends, in my (male, second-hand) experience, to be one of persistence. Woman: "If you're not listening to me now when I say no, how can I possibly trust you will listen later?"
I live somewhere with long yellows and it does encourage people to run the lights. It's a problem, but we are also a very bike-friendly city and long yellows give cyclists time to clear the intersection. Also, there is…
Yep. I used to call it "waking insomnia" before I learned about segmented sleep. It's likely a remnant of our ancestor's approach to sleep, which was in two parts--first and second sleep. I'll wake 4-5 hours after first…
Ah. That makes much more sense.
>Ammunition is still pretty hard to do well on your own. Could you clarify this? Reloading ammo is a very popular past time among many shooting enthusiasts and not difficult at all. You do rely on manufacturers for…
This is terribly off-topic, but you don't have any contact info in your profile. Are you going to AdaCamp in June, by chance? If you are, please email me (it's in my profile), because I'm going and I've love to get to…
Um, middle of nowhere is where food is grown and livestock are raised. It'd be disastrous to not have people living there doing these things. As more services move online, it is a public good to ensure all…
Oops! Thanks for the correction. I guess I missed that detail. $9/home/month or $110/home/year for 5 years is even more manageable, though! Edit: I see now where militiaman21 requested that the title be updated to "over…
Hopefully I haven't messed any of the numbers up: $11 billion per year for 20 million homes or roughly $550/home/year or $45/home/month And, for perspective: From 1936 to 1938, the Rural Electrification Administration…
The compulsion to be a tourist is ever-present in our lives. Social networks just move the reward of validation for tourism up to the near-instant. One of my favorite books has a significant character plot that explores…
Making choices is a part of web development and choosing not to include an audience based on the technology they use is a choice. It's perfectly valid to make that choice--even if it excludes people--but it's a choice…
One thing precludes the other, though. How can Android users be early adopters if apps are consistently released on iOS first?
I bought an ebook today from Amazon and it had the option to "rent" it. Wow. I can't even believe how quickly I was right. The paperback copy of this book was $28, the ebook was $15, and the cost to rent started at $8.…
As others have said, it's not so much that UPS knows this, but that they subscribe to a service that aggregates this kind of data. Go get your credit report online. You'll be asked similar questions. Do credit reporting…
Judging by their move to ebooks, the cost will only be marginally scaled down. I do really look forward to a distribution system that will benefit content creators and be convenient and fair to consumers. I just don't…
If the publishers continue down this road, we're closing in on ebooks becoming time-based licenses to view content instead of things you "own."
You're thinking of a login form. If you were to try to register a new account with an email address already in the database, you should get some variation of "A user account with that email address already exists,"…
