Firefox is still slow as heck for me. Not sure what performance you guys are talking about. I unfortunately have to use Firefox heavily at work. When I can I use something else, sometimes even IE.

For the curious, it's David Heinemeier Hansson and works for 37 Signals.

I dont think anything of him or 37 Signals.

Sorry but this comes off as really pompous. Essentially what you're saying is that I am so good, you will be hired on your terms.

If you had gone in with the mind set, "I want to work locally, and relocating isn't something that works for me." I can respect that, but when you say I wont locate for YOU, comes off as saying, hey I make the decisions not you. Or an attention grabbing title for a post.

For a full time employee, remote work is like a long distance relationship, more often than not, they just do not work. Heck contract remote work is already difficult as is.

Oh I completely agree that California is terrible with money management.

But the entire article is a thinly veil shot at unions and collective-bargaining-agreements.

Over simplified, the article is saying unions are causing all this mad spending and it's easy to see that they are at the root cause.

It praises all Republican, while blaming every Democrat.

The bright side is that in my opinion it's improved, the status of science and math. Again just the status, the education system pre college is still a mess.

I am going to go out on a limb and say controversially, that it's because education falls under state rights. You just have too many different philosophy of education across all the states. For something so important it should be at a national level.

I really like the 10 year plan. It might seem a long time, but if four of those years are college that's about half, and if you do a masters program that cuts it down even more.

Personally if you do four years as a CS major but program on the side or actively practice programming it's more like 5-6 years. That gives you 4 years, where you go out and get programming work experience, in the real world. In that situation, 10 years isn't much.

I thought same thing, but read more and realized it was open for awhile, and no one seem to care. It took the breath of his examples to make everyone shock enough to notice.

The only thing that should be illegal is the way all that information was not secured.

"who wouldn't like her anyway" Yea you missed that part, because it's true. Most of the older crowd in Maine are hard core conservative republicans.

I could be wrong, but so far no one in the US has been charged with a crime for downloading. Fined, yes, but no criminal case.

What are we comparing the customer service to though? For ISPs google cannot do worse, it's impossible. I've used Verizon, AT&T, Charter, Time Warner and they all have terrible customer service, and I am understating it.

For my friend's wedding, we stayed at such a place. I had a long conversation with the owner, who lived in a side room. It looked like an extension he built on the house.

He told me he was running into issues with the city. Not from hotels or what not, but complaints from neighbors. They did not like the fact that strangers were constantly going in and out. BUT he said that he had heard hotels and motels were not happy about the popularity, especially from other short-term vacation home owners.

It's going to be a two front battle, one side from big business, and the other from neighbors. In the end my guess is that the city will license it, and heavily tax it, in other words the cities win.

I really do not know much about bitcoins, so if someone can add more info that would be great.

My question is from when you purchase bitcoin, or convert it back to your respective currency. Does that not have to go through a normal bank, which is still regulated?

Additionally, what is to stop shops from not accepting bitcoins? So you get paid in bitcoin, but can't convert it back to your currency, or no one accepts it as payment wouldnt that just make it worthless?
