Where do you host it? At the restaurant itself or at your own venue?
I think you should mention the higher risk exposure from having so much liability tied up in a single asset if the house loses value.

Also, why is option 2 @2%? If you're investing the $360k at 7%, you should compare it to the same investment at 7%.

Hi David, thanks for the article. Maybe poker, basketball, and Starcraft are highly correlated hobbies among software engineers in the Bay area, but I find it incredible that we share such similar interests. Starcraft not as much for me anymore, despite my HN username (though I still play maybe once a month or so).
Mortgage interest deduction is no longer deductible for itemized taxes.
You've convinced me of your point, but I only understood about 25% of what you said. How can I get more educated on this subject? I'm not really interested in actually executing any of these strategies you mentioned, just learning about them.

The extent of my knowledge just comes from reading /r/wallstreetbets for entertainment, while doing passive index fund investing for personal finance.

Thanks for bringing the naming up. I wasn't aware of these other tools. SonarQube looks interesting, though! Just to clarify, I don't contribute to Sonar development, I'm just a heavy user. I think the team is aware of your concerns now though (Emil is the OP and works on Sonar development).

I use this tool every day at FB and it's awesome. I highly encourage you to try it and see if it fits into your workflow!

Might as well call Apple an "electronics business, both small and large."
Re:On Norbert Blum’s claimed proof that P does not equal NP on Thursday August 17, 2017 @12:54AM (#15033903)
By definition, each NP-complete problem is provably as hard as another though. Graph coloring can be reduced in polynomial time to every NP-C problem. It doesn't really make sense to me that one problem can just "look so doable" when they're really just the same problems.
Wow, this is really cool! If I ever finish a project that doesn't belong on this thread, I will definitely consider using DocsApp

Watched your most recent algorithm video. Good quality stream!

P.S.: Sieve rhymes with live, as in "I live in California." :)

IIRC, Mint works by screen-scraping, which is what Teller.io is trying to avoid
