I've only had things mess up once on Uber and I wrote them and they refunded the charge no problem.
You'd probably expect a car company with the motto "Engineering future cars" to have at least one mechanical engineer on their payroll. Expecting a company whose tagline is "Engineering future foods" to have at least…
How does water compare to Soylent?
It's difficult to hack around a state's desire for tax revenue
Working remotely (as absolutely amazing as it is) is only barely getting traction in some fields at this point. I generally agree with you and the ability to work remotely is incredibly important to me as far as picking…
Almost made this exact post... I was looking for a Photoshop clone for Mac and stumbled on Pixelmator years ago, it's definitely not as full-featured as PS but it's a fraction of the cost and it does what I need it to…
The word boss has a pretty specific connotation and your clients and customers aren't that. Yes, if you work for yourself you're responsible for delivering work to your customers and they have some control over you due…
Yeah this seems pretty worthless without separating responses by location. Living in the city you're going to walk a ton without even thinking about it, and most suburbs/rural areas are set up to make walking anywhere…
Is it really under the radar though? If you're aiming for TechCrunch front page then being in SF is probably a much better bet, but beyond that hype bubble you can still do very well. There are certainly talented people…
Sounds like you're not the epic rockstar ninja they're looking for anyway.
The lack of imagination here is just staggering. Holy cow. I mean first and foremost you're just getting a link to this directly, who's to say he doesn't also have a RESUME.DOC file that he sends out, including a link…
You know, when you pay rent you generally receive a place to sleep and keep your things. Just because you aren't making money on it as investment doesn't mean it's a loss.
Greenwald is definitely non-partisan, and in fact he goes to great lengths to point out that the people who supported him when he reported on government abuse during the Bush administration have become some of his…
Healthcare is not a consumer good and people would still need it regardless of whether or not it's paid for by Medicare.
There were several obstacles to using SR, each of which would have been difficult or frightening to overcome when the alternative is doing transactions in person with cash. You needed to understand TOR (which, while not…
Does writing yet another article about those darn kids these days count as hard, boring work or easy, enjoyable work?
That's the thing though. We know that as of very recently the NSA is helping other alphabet agencies construct cases in parallel. If you knew the guy's name or handle or whatever information the NSA could have given the…
So, marketing?
In case you were wondering, that stock picture of fireworks was posted on July 4th.
Yeah that's brilliant, and it looks pretty great. This would probably make the whole thing much more complicated but it'd be nice if the "unused" days were invisible, and I agree that the name is a bit awkward. Beyond…
I still can't believe they actually thought that thing was going to sound like a real bass guitar.
You're confusing "a necessary grind" with "a necessary period where your employer exploits you for longer hours with no additional pay." You can (and almost certainly will have to) pay your dues at some point in your…
Actually the militarization of the police force comes from a coordinated effort to repurpose military hardware for domestic police use. [1] Kind of funny that the gear used to fight one terrible war overseas is sent…
Seems like there might be an opportunity for something in the middle ground between neighborhood coffee shop and full-on coworking space.
It's a reaction against the "home ownership is doable and always a better idea than renting" sentiment that the previous generations knew to be true. The answer is probably a bit more nuanced in that sometimes ownership…
