All due to unmatched wisdom.
Is Orchard specific to restaurant solutions or would it work in any retail situation? How does it handle multiple stores in multiple states with different tax rates and pricing?
Fox News? No thanks.

You say you "worked in restaurants for years". If a customer stiffed you on a tip would that encourage YOU to give them better service next time they come in?

Ask HN: New IT Manager Tips

My current manager is leaving for greener pastures and I have an opportunity to be his replacement. I am currently the team lead and the team appears to be behind on this move. Any tips or tricks on how to get the job and do the best I can at it?

If he sends me a bitcoin from one of Satoshi's wallets I'll believe him. 10 bitcoins and I'll believe him even more.
If he wanted to prove that he was Satoshi, couldn't he just move some of the BTC out of one of Satoshi's wallets? That would be proof enough for me.

Pay higher salaries?
Yeah. Pretty much all major corporations that employ un-skilled labor force their employees to watch anti-union training videos. Unions are bad for the stockholders.
There are other tech hubs you should look into:

Seattle, Washington

Boston, Massachusetts

Austin, Texas

Atlanta, Georgia

Raleigh, North Carolina

Denver, Colorado

Boca Raton, Florida

Don't limit yourself to the Bay Area.

Seems to be a lot of horse dung involved.
This is where I would start: http://bfy.tw/JMKG
True story: A friend who was a heavy smoker asked me to fix his computer. I went to his house and saw the beige desktop and CRT were stained tobacco brown from second hand smoke. After fixing his "screen's all blurry" problem with some Windex I was ready to go in and see what kind of spyware and viruses he had managed to install on the machine.

I was about to ask for his password when I noticed the only spots not covered in ashes on his keyboard were the W, S, C, B, U, N, and I keys. Knowing he was a die hard Chicago Cubs fan it took me one try to guess the password: cubswin.

It was a nasty job but he was a good friend so I got his machine all straightened out for him without judgement.

Damn. The "bad" words have been sanitized. Seeing the programmers' frustrations as they appear in the comments enhances the experience when viewing old code like this.

Misleading title.
Not a very detailed article, not an interesting read at all.
The problem will be the moderators and the internet trolls. What would happen when 4chan invades the US Senate and turns it into /r/the_Donald. Tumblr then takes over the House and every opposing opinion will be met with caps lock screaming, threats, and comments about OP's mom.

No, thank you. I'll stick with the mess we already have.

TIL the Onion has a liberal lean.

Maybe they make fun of Republicans more than Democrats but that's only because it's like shooting fish in a barrel with the GOP. There's more to mock.
