Yes (assuming the fund buys/holds all positions and hasn't taken an optimization strategy) This has some interesting side effects to things such as the S&P 500 ( http://www.forbes.com/sites/investor/20

Considering a lot of them are there during school hours and you'll see the same ones there sleeping with tarps at night - I think its safe to say homeless. Probably better to say 'young adults' though - Seattle YouthCare ( ht

Not looking for a scapegoat, only a solution. And I lived here before the recession/GFC. I'd completely agree that the "social/medical/mental safety net in this country" is a major problem.

Crime is down nationally since the 80s. So for things to be the same, or only a little better says a lot. I completely agree that SPD is petrified. I've live/worked in downtown Seattle for a while - and while I think some of the &

Comcast services only select locations too. A good number of apartments around the city don't even offer Comcast (and instead the aforementioned and other services such as 'Wave'). The building I live in (granted, yes, an ups

I'm assuming he means the Pike/Pine alley and Pioneer square, sadly famous for aggressive panhandling, unruly 'youth', and shootings. I live in and work in downtown (haven't driven in months) and it's def. gett

Comcast has other serious challengers here in Seattle as well between CascadeLink (terrible website, but top notch service) and CondoInternet, if you can get either of those, you'll never look at Comcast again (between $30-60/mont

What you're talking is yield and volatility. When you're running a fund, you need to manage to benchmarks, and MSFT is a great position for exposure. IV is on the low end, there is plenty of liquidity should you need to raise cash

To be fair, he mentioned Youtube, which even in Chrome uses Flash by default.

For credit repair, you'll need to do certified mail for certain requests. This is something we're getting ready to launch :-) Feel free to reach out (info in profile), if we can help.

Hi there, Founder of TryPaper.com here, we handle some of the core printing & mailing processes all via API :)

I think more coincidence. EasyPost and TryPaper both started around the same time (Q3 2013). Nothing specific on the USPS side has happened. That being said, one thing we've seen, is as companies have invested more and more in digital deliv

At the risk of hijacking the thread, we've been doing this for about 7 months now (out of beta for 4+) @ https://www.trypaper.com , we wish you guys the best of luck! edit: the big differentiator here is that we print and mail documents ou

it does not. it simply looks at the number of uppercase, lowercase, digit, and special characters (no spaces, etc.) fairly naïve.

Frankly about time. We evaluated Braintree and just couldn't get over the amount of information requested to get started as compared to Stripe. Secondarily, we reached out to a member of the sales team and got a fairly curt response about t

They do in a way, the 'List-Unsubscribe' header: https://support.google.com/mail/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answ... Appears to work with Outlook.com/Hotmail, and Gmail. Not sure about Yahoo, but those two alone cover a pretty big group.

If you're from the area I could see that. I'm pretty confident the Hub Seattle is part of a larger network: http://www.the-hub.net/

Good to see this sort of thing picking up in Seattle. The Hub is a great space (of which we're members). To anyone going to these, ping me (contact info in profile), and your first beer is on TryPaper (we have nothing to do with this event

Right now I check every two weeks, with checking every day inside of 90 days. I'm thinking about increasing this to be every 3-4 days though. Thoughts?

Ouch, we saw a similar thing in the South when things went sideways late last year. We've taken a similar approach to Sql Azure, use DataSync to replicate to offsite warm instances.

We do have a failure plan (and ironically enough were actively working on improving storage resiliency, this just hit us before we were able to deploy it) That being said, there unfortunately is always a level 'sitting on hands' in events l

We use Azure pretty seriously and overall, we really like it. We went with the MSFT stack due to some of our low level code to deal with printing. That being said, it's had it's share of outages, but honestly no less than if we were racking
