Hmm, according to the article in the new yorker the food costs for doing it oneself is 50 dollars a month and it was a significant time saving from making food or going out to eat, now if I figure out that it actually works as advertised -

not necessarily. there's not enough context as to how they got to stripe. Did they write the url in the address bar of the browser without any other context, or did they do something that signalled what they were going to do. I bet #2.

I don't care about the programming, what I want to know is why is using a spellchecker so difficult?

That's a pretty lousy rate of return for inventing time travel really. The normal way one calculates this is by buying power of those dollars - what could you buy then and what would it cost now. But really I could have bought a Sub-Ma

Well, if this story is true ( I put the if because it seems silly to have that account be the target ) then access to the account is proof of a crime (this is why it seems silly) If they sell it to someone I guess that is a reason to take i

Well this one is ok, since he is going to pay for that one hour. Then again, if you do know how to program in the programming language but don't know the APIs used it can be more than one hour to get something done.. I was interviewing
