Missing tiers 6: After hours.

On the 28th of September I got charged $900+ for Facebook ads that I never ran. I reported it as fraud to my credit card and let Facebook know. I would recommend everyone that have…

I am mostly disturbed by this essay and a lot of the comments. Reading the news is a difficult act indeed. You need to read between the lines, understand that a lot of things are o…

Could ISP be responsible for attacks coming from some of their infected users? Shutting down someone's internet for 'abusive use' would be a good incentive of getting incriminating…

Yes I agree that 90% of all the projects advertised are what you describe and not worth anything. No-one should waste their time on it. But there is also this 10% of really quality…

I have been working exclusively through upwork for 2 years and make a good living off it (I also live in Australia, it's not like I can charge 10$/h). I would highly recommend peop…

Yes there are some logical exceptions to the motor boat always give way. These are however exceptions. http://www.gosailing.info/Navigation%20Rules.htm The equivalent in the cyclin…

I live in Australia and the debate here is pretty heated between cars and cyclists. The main reason pedestrians are not really mentioned is, in my opinion, because Australia does n…
