I wonder if a "Trusted Traveller"-style program would work. You go through a small vetting process, and you build a solid history with receipt checking through their app, and then …

Not an app but I found this awesome: http://drawabox.com/

Was just about to post the same comment! I presume we have other obstacles to overcome first ;)

What matters more, in this context, is if you let this personal prejudice influence how you treat your co-workers. Do you value their input and opinions less? Do you think you some…

It's a general response. I happened to seize upon the term "pre-kids" because it seems to imply that a person is somehow "more" for after having kids.

I work directly with two software engineers who have kids. One behaves exactly like that, the other is completely different and reasonable.

I'm completely fine working with people who have kids. I don't have a problem with them working from home some days to look after a sick child, or taking time off during the day to…

Could very well have been a factor. I gave up on it quickly. Repeatedly crashing renders it an unnecessary annoyance. VirtualBox works well enough, is stable and reliable, and Veer…

Found the same on a 2015 rMBP with max specs (Sierra, 16GB RAM, Core i7). It's much less performant with exactly the same VM as VirtualBox. In fact, it ate my entire CPU while it w…

Re-shipping services like myus.com for the US and parcelmotel.com for the UK/Ireland make this an easily surmountable problem. I'm in Ireland, ordered mine from the UK on a Sunday …

Part of it is definitely that US prices are often listed exclusive of tax, while EU prices are listed inclusive, which instantly adds 20-30%. Granted, they still hike up the prices…

I imagine this strategy would only work if you already had a connection with the company that's recruiting. 100% of the roles I've secured since I started work at the age of 14 -- …

Although it's fairly straightforward to distinguish between gender and sexual orientation, I disagree with these traditional US categories of ethnicity. Take a 'White' person, for …

The times when I'm unhappy, I often have no idea of the cause. Why not add some optional questions that would drive more useful reporting if answered: # Are you in a relationship? …

It's great to see an Irish start-up having such a big impact globally.

This is the one feature that will uniquely distinguish Dogecoin from other cryptocurrencies: - It makes the currency much more democratic -- missed the first few months of mining? …

The Economist often runs interesting pieces it. Perhaps the most surprising finding is that, in the past few decades, we have had far higher social mobility in Europe than in the U…

The time an authorization on a credit card lasts varies by issuer; it may be as little as week on some cards. That said, many payments gateways allow you to later process a new aut…

For me the greatest truth in this comment lies in the necessity to live in a place to truly understand it. Living in a new and entirely different country challenges your prejudices…

Seems like it would've been best handled by an advance warning system, i.e., at least a few days or a week's notice that you're violating their TOS and need to take action.

Two in our company were on it also. Started within seconds of it opening and went through the 6-minute process 7 or 8 times. Neither of us even got to the Wallet stage. I managed t…

Makes sense!

Could you not just disable Bluetooth on your phone for situations like that? Just curious if there's a downside. Would love a Pebble but haven't ordered yet so I'm going to wait un…
