It's a shame that what was a good idea of having a space and community for all men really just turned into the space for that 5-10 year window for guys that are retired but not yet ready to spend their day in a nursing home. At least w

Have worked a long time in a company that does $5k referrals. Have referred 4, 2 successful so $10k. One of them landed in my lap so treated the money as guilt free "buy whatever I want" money. The other was a very good friend so

Love Dalibor's work. I have the Puri clock, and it is a real statement piece that wows people. I didn't get it for that, I just got it half because I loved the aesthetic and half I wanted to support someone doing something that un

Often the new strategies top level players test on anonymised accounts are subtle tweaks in lines deep into / slightly beyond opening theory. Often these lines are slightly inferior to mainline but come with an edge due to the "su

Anecdotally, my uncle did this back in the late 80s to 2000s. Towards the end he would make AUD$400-800k a year (depending on how many jobs he took on) which was great money for someone who got into it in his early 20s after dropping out of

For me it's not paying that's the issue, but rather having to sign up to an individual service and pay a monthly fee for every piece you read on every different website. There really needs to be a Spotify for journalism and simila

I think it is a by-product of their culture. We recently had an SLA request to them that was for a paltry amount, nowhere near the damage they caused, less than 0.1% of our monthly spend. It was really just to gauge their process and how su

It looks like the article got the Australian implementation somewhat wrong. Under cons, it says that voters have to rank all candidates on the ballot paper. In reality you have a choice. You can either rank all, or if you are lazier you can

This is a very interesting story that is (at least claimed to be) part of my family history. My family stems from a group of travelling motorbike stunt riders back to the 20's. They did the wall of death and later the globe of death, a

The way I have done it with both groups of friends and past partners is we rotate who chooses the activity, and that person pays that time. So if you can only be cheap and do picnic in the park that's fine, but if you want to spend mor

I have Crohn's disease. First symptoms 5 years ago, just before I was about to enter my final year of uni. For the first 3 months I was pretty much bed/bathroom bound, lost so much weight and looked so weak that a few friends &#x2

I just moved out of Sydney to somewhere regional (not rural). NBN installation is turning into a joke (probably a month or two off due to tree roots growing through a cable) so I have turned to 4g. Telstra now do 200gb a month for $75, whic

I clicked on the link thinking it would be someone being offended over nothing as tends to be my stance. But no, that is too far. I wonder what the culture is like such that anyone thought committing that, with your name on the commit, was

I didn't read it like that at all. As stated in the article, the offending bit was the last two lines. "If you haven't tried it, I suggest you do" is the smug, condescending jab that was completely unnecessary. It is inf

Funny timing, I just picked up my first pair today. 24 years old. Last 2.5 years I'd been sick, and one of the medications I had to take on and off was prednisone, an anti-inflammatory steroid. Although it was a temporary miracle for m

Just picked up the book. A friend and I are looking to start our own software dev agency in 2017, which will probably be closer to consulting work in the beginning. I look forward to giving your book a read.

You don't have to stick on Kaggle forever. It is a fantastic resource for learning to apply ML techniques to real life data sets. Spend some time getting good at doing that and then move onto your own domain

The problem with that argument is that not everyone is OK with living a bare minimum cost of living life style. Also rewarding yourself for earning more can give you motivation to progress further. I recommend fixing your spending at a %-ag

The first hint is there are lots of little grammar errors in the post. Mainly missing 'a' or 'the'. Nothing bad enough to make it unreadable or give ambiguous meaning, however enough to realise English is probably not th

I still remember doing this in high school. Well, not me, but those who were in the most competitive races would dig up the dirt a bit and use those holes, everyone in the less competitive races would just start upright.

Not sure if relevant to this issue, but Sydney is currently being hit with one of the biggest storms I can remember in the past few years. Probably not crazy enough to take down a DC, but might be a contributing factor in this outage.
