While 3% is a good deal, there have been internet-only banks for quite some time now, all of whom look pretty much like this. Radius and Axos are two examples that have been around for a while.

Looks great, but email composition is only half the battle. The page is silent on what, if anything, is being done to help deliverability. Does the site have any kind of relationship with the big ESPs? How 'clean' are the IPs rig

In a sense, yes. 'sed' is basically 'ed' for streams. Not exactly the same syntax & commands, but very very close.

Except that the incremental cost of someone using a Gym is almost zero. Once you have enough members to cover the rent & employees, it's almost all upside. MoviePass will pay about $12 each and every time someone sees a movie -- m

OK, fair enough, "no product ever" is probably too broad. But for consumer products, I stand by what I said.

Price has never been correlated with quality, for any product, ever. Price is correlated with perceived value, which includes quality, brand recognition, brand opinion, current style, and a long list of other factors. (And, yes, this is a h

I find that a very weak analogy. The house wins in Vegas over the long haul because the odds have been tilted in their favor. Any one hand of blackjack is luck, but the house winning over the course of a million is a mathematically certai

If there is no penalty for not making them available for the deaf, why would any institution pay for captioning? UCB wasn't ordered to take them down. UCB was ordered to make them accessible, and chose to take them down rather than sp

A 14 year old can't sign a contract, so how does he own a business? I don't doubt he's done all the work, and I've nothing but admiration for him, but there's no way this is the complete picture.

Can verify, have done. The clerk looked horrified and shook her head vigorously while pointing at the coin tray.

100% serious. The definition of girl is "A female child". To refer to females who code as children while at the exact same time NOT doing that for males who code is sexist.

You call women coders "girls" while calling men coders "male." Yes, I see sexism.

No, Its as if the Post Office agreed to delivery my mail at .43 a letter, but then asked me for more money when my Mom started send me 10 letters a day with the proper postage. I (and millions of others) pay Comcast a certain rate for a cer

That's a reasonable argument against Google announcing what needs to be done. It's no argument at all against someone from Google contacting Matt Haughey directly, and telling him. That's what surprises me most in all of th

The other way to look at this is a guy smart enough to rise to VP of Marketing at a major corporation and make in the low six figures isn't smart enough to manage his own retirement savings . He's a VP of Marketing. Why is it th

That's not what 'warming up an IP' means. If Google (or any other ISP) suddenly sees an big spike in email from @example.com on an IP that @example.com hasn't used previously, Google is much more likely to mark those emails as Spam. So se

Once upon a time there was a single father and his son. Every day, the father was overprotective and worried about his boy. One day the boy went out on his own, and got kidnapped. Because of that, the father went on a quest to find him. Bec

You would need to start by raising a large amount of capital. Tens of millions, if not hundreds. Now, you have two choices. "Easiest" is buying an existing, up and running cable company. There are quite a few: http://en.wikipedia.org/wi

Certainly true that JIRA is neither Gratis nor Libre, nor does Atlassian accepted patches from the public. But it's Open Source in the sense that every license holder can download and build it: http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA

It's outdated in the sense that the original reason for the high fees was to make it economically viable to provide service to people in rural areas. But the original sunk costs of wiring every home and business have long been paid off, an

Single most important habit I've developed as a SysAdmin: measure twice, cut once. I never just sudo rm * First, I do echo sudo rm * inspect the output, and then use CLI editing to recall the command, and delete the "echo" I
