Maybe you just don't like traveling. There are lots of stories about traveling digital nomads on HN. That type of life never sounded interesting to me. Maybe you just don't like it either.

I've thought about starting my own company, but I don't want to start a startup. I want to start a company without investors that actually makes money from the beginning. Although it is something I think about from time to time, I

Punishment also works on cats. You just have to be very consistent when applying it (this is exactly the same for dogs). If you punish your cat(or dog) you have to do it immediately. If the cat is done scratching its nails, and you squirt w

That such a thing is possible. If I try to get below my limit in the Netherlands I am simply not able to. The only services who can go below my limit are my rent and gas/water/electricity bills. And then I just pay a high interest

In the Netherlands we have enough unemployment money that one isn't forced to take some ridiculous "just be employed" job. But the longer you are unemployed, the harder it will be to find a new job. A hole in your resume does

We are not the only ones being watched, politicians are being watched as well. This means the NSA can probably blackmail a large portion of the politicians.

There would be a list of people who want to be able to watch porn (which could be used for black mail). It would also require a lot of infrastructure to be set up for this kind of censorship. That infrastructure could easily be used to star

Windows is full of exploits that are enabled by default. Plugging a usb stick into your computer could automatically install a virus. Or a bug in flash or java could expose your computer.

I think it does matter. In the Netherlands you are able to vote right wing without the religion, or even vote on a religious left wing party. There are party differences between how we should handle a lot of different issues. It is easier t
