I'm looking to either switch back to writing code or continuing as a Technical Product Manager. What I'm really after is a cool problem space to fall in love with. I especially lik…

Or there will be a ton of them on thingiverse to 3d print...

If they are part of your "family" in the apple ecosystem maybe it figures it out? Dunno.

> since I always just use my phone as the remote Our family does this only because the actual remote is such a pile of crap.

That touch remote truly is the worst thing apple has made in a while (the round hockey puck mouse being the absolute worst). In addition to all your points... it just isn't that du…

I've done the 1099 thing before. I had an accountant and my own LLC. I made sure to have a separate bank account that I dumped 30% of my billable time into. Each tax season I'd cut…

The IRS has very clear guidelines on the difference between contractor and employee: https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employe...

In my time at MSFT there was at least one staffing firm that was founded by a couple contractors who decided to just fuck it and make their own LLC so they didn't have to "pay the …

Dunno why the downvoted. Smart cars are objectively bad cars. For a similar price you can get much better cars like the Honda Fit. However, they did have their charm when you were …

Let’s all be honest though. Those smart cars are total garbage. Horrible gearbox. Was like riding a go cart. Which... while I say they are garbage in that I never would own one. Th…

Also no annual fees. Just a setup fee... which if you waited for a sale or coupon was waved.

Bingo. Once Uber and lyft caught on it was only useful when there was surge pricing.

It was over when they dumped those crappy smart cars. Those cars were the worst but they were perfect for the service. Easy to park and easy to find. And driving them was like driv…

It sounds like you are try to build your own home-brew accounting system. That is absolutely insane. How do you ship this off to your accountant during tax season? How do you deal …

And who is really going to do that? Do I have time at my day job to port some network packet editor to the platform of my choice? Is management going to fund such an effort, or are…

There was actually several of them used by overclockers. I was always a fan of "waterfall". It made a huge difference in the CPU temperature! http://estu.nit.ac.jp/~e982457/other/c…

This is quite an inspiring article, thanks! Your photography could be improved if you got a white sheet of paper or maybe some posterboard (eg: http://www.dickblick.com/products/bl…

Ever heard of Vimeo? They are great. Higher quality. Better content. More control over your video content. Less BS copyright crap to work through.

Why aren't these things somehow cryptographically signed like a lot of software? Seems like it would fix the problem. You could always do what Windows/OsX does when a USB device is…

What you describe is basically: Fiat -> Credit Card/ACH -> Bitcoin -> Fiat -> ACH (on supplier). You are basically adding at least two extra steps in a transaction vs. what exists …
