$1 is 1981 was four popsicles from the icecream truck. Well worth it to be the king. $1 in 1996 was a bottomless plastic cup of PBR. Also well worth it. $1 is 2011 is the cost of a…

Agreed - It doesn't seem that these are anything near legal contracts. I would like to see a less misleading word than 'contract.' A contract is a 'meeting of minds' and requires c…

By the way, if you have some presale ether and you think the price might be a little frothy, Kraken makes it super easy to sweep your presale wallet. I recently did this and had bi…

Tell Mrs. Patmore that.

Are people still developing Counterparty? Is this what you're referring to?

I got my previous phone three years ago - the battery has gone to pot and Verizon has been telling me I'm reading for an upgrade - but I kept putting off going to the Verizon store…

I gotta say, for someone who is very much pro-TPP, Ron Wyden seems suddenly concerned about entities overseas using legal power to push around US businesses.

Yup. I just bought a new iphone.

This says so much about the dangers of winner-take-all economics.

It's more than getting in, it's networking and having the recruiters from all of the bulge-bracket and consulting firms groom you. Why recruit someone online when you have a rich, …

Thanks. I had quite a few apps in there.

Last night I applied for a job, and there was a link that you can click to allow the website to access your LinkedIn information. I clicked on this. I usually breeze through this b…

The internet is full of misinformation about dentists. Some corporate sponsored dentists will mill up thousands of fake reviews. These used to be five-star, but now they're smart e…

Funny bone indeed. It also seems that, as a consumer, these same professions are the hardest to get good information about. If someone serves a burger with a bland sauce they'll ge…

Location : USA West coast, near an airport, but not near a major tech hub. Remote: Yes Willing to Relocate: No. Technologies: Matlab, Python, and lots of geometry. Looking to do so…

Optimization of tax code via machine learning. It should be possible to build an intelligent tax machine that uses enough features in order properly classify and tax corporations l…

Is the tax something that a hedge fund with offshore shell companies and other active investments could work around?

This has a chance of working, provided I give hope of having a curated notes list.

Tangential exactly (which is why something like a spreadsheet would never work.) I've tried using notes but then I often forget exactly which note I used or how I had planned to ac…

I'm looking for my Allen wrench, but I can't remember where I put it. I have limited random access space around my house, and so I stash rarely used objects in clever places. I'm h…

It's amusing how many CEOs get to CEO with this attitude. I once put a nasty Yelp review up about a local place and got a call from the CEO of the larger franchise who demanded to …

obligations? If/when you have kids....

I'm on the west coast and I'm an expert (Ph.D + Ivy postdoc) in mathematics. I've played a little bit recently and my feeling is that the low hanging fruit has been largely harvest…

Injury reports are serious wrinkles. Often time players will be scratched within a few hours before the game. If you are optimizing, you need to account for this because it sends t…
