It's a shame that what was a good idea of having a space and community for all men really just turned into the space for that 5-10 year window for guys that are retired but not yet…

Have worked a long time in a company that does $5k referrals. Have referred 4, 2 successful so $10k. One of them landed in my lap so treated the money as guilt free "buy whatever I…

Love Dalibor's work. I have the Puri clock, and it is a real statement piece that wows people. I didn't get it for that, I just got it half because I loved the aesthetic and half I…

Often the new strategies top level players test on anonymised accounts are subtle tweaks in lines deep into / slightly beyond opening theory. Often these lines are slightly inferio…

Aaaaaand it's gone

Anecdotally, my uncle did this back in the late 80s to 2000s. Towards the end he would make AUD$400-800k a year (depending on how many jobs he took on) which was great money for so…

For me it's not paying that's the issue, but rather having to sign up to an individual service and pay a monthly fee for every piece you read on every different website. There real…

I think it is a by-product of their culture. We recently had an SLA request to them that was for a paltry amount, nowhere near the damage they caused, less than 0.1% of our monthly…

It looks like the article got the Australian implementation somewhat wrong. Under cons, it says that voters have to rank all candidates on the ballot paper. In reality you have a c…

This is a very interesting story that is (at least claimed to be) part of my family history. My family stems from a group of travelling motorbike stunt riders back to the 20's. The…

The way I have done it with both groups of friends and past partners is we rotate who chooses the activity, and that person pays that time. So if you can only be cheap and do picni…

I have Crohn's disease. First symptoms 5 years ago, just before I was about to enter my final year of uni. For the first 3 months I was pretty much bed/bathroom bound, lost so much…

Doesn't cut the mustard

This assumes OP gets a fair price for their stock. Often that doesn't happen on private markets, especially if the company doesn't provide enough information to allow outsiders to …

I just moved out of Sydney to somewhere regional (not rural). NBN installation is turning into a joke (probably a month or two off due to tree roots growing through a cable) so I h…

I clicked on the link thinking it would be someone being offended over nothing as tends to be my stance. But no, that is too far. I wonder what the culture is like such that anyone…

I didn't read it like that at all. As stated in the article, the offending bit was the last two lines. "If you haven't tried it, I suggest you do" is the smug, condescending jab th…

700 person company, half of which are software engineers. Yes our CTO is extremely hands on, and one of the most insanely gifted developers I've ever met. He was the first hire at …

Funny timing, I just picked up my first pair today. 24 years old. Last 2.5 years I'd been sick, and one of the medications I had to take on and off was prednisone, an anti-inflamma…

Read this last week. There were lots of individual things I disliked about the book, yet still thoroughly enjoyed it as a whole. Quite a fun story

> Once the children discovered the estate’s money was being used to pay the bank’s lawyers in the legal fight, they asked for the bank to stop using the account. JPMorgan did not c…

Just picked up the book. A friend and I are looking to start our own software dev agency in 2017, which will probably be closer to consulting work in the beginning. I look forward …

The return package has a label indicating it was sent from that town which is in the Ukraine

You don't have to stick on Kaggle forever. It is a fantastic resource for learning to apply ML techniques to real life data sets. Spend some time getting good at doing that and the…
